Show Notes

Benjamin Haynes is a wonderful example of today’s young generation. He is a meditator, yogi, and evangelizer of “authentic relating.” I was impressed by his presence, groundedness, and the intentional manner in which he spoke when we met about 3 years ago. After graduating from UNC-Chapel Hill and teaching in Malaysia under a Fulbright grant, Benjamin recently joined Authentic Relating Training, an organization dedicated to the practice and production of authentic relating programs.

In today’s episode, Benjamin and I explore contempt directed within us and projected outward to others and how this creates emotional violence. We talk about how we focus on non-violent living in our lives.

“Emotional violence is likely to leave marks on the outside or inside of the body”
