Building Bridges: How to communicate emotions across generations

Care for Albania's upcoming workshop, Building Bridges: How to communicate emotions across generations, offers a unique opportunity for individuals of all ages to enhance their ability to communicate and connect emotionally across generational gaps. As societal norms and cultural perspectives evolve, the workshop recognizes the challenges that arise when attempting to bridge the emotional communication divide between individuals who grew up in different eras or cultural contexts. Led by experienced speakers and clinicians such as Sonila Sejdaras, Deahdra Bowier, and Silvana Loka, participants will gain valuable insights and practical strategies to foster understanding and empathy in intergenerational relationships.

During the 90-minute workshop, participants will engage in dynamic discussions, interactive exercises, and a special wellness movement activity designed to cater to all ability levels. The workshop aims to create a safe and inclusive space where attendees can explore the nuances of emotional expression within the context of diverse generational backgrounds. By the end of the session, participants will have acquired effective communication tools, increased cultural awareness, and a deeper appreciation for the emotional landscapes of different generations, fostering stronger and more meaningful connections in both personal and professional relationships.

In addition to offering valuable insights and practical strategies for intergenerational emotional communication, this workshop carries a meaningful impact beyond its immediate benefits. All proceeds generated from admission fees will be donated to Care for Albania, directly contributing to their charitable projects aimed at supporting children and the elderly within the Albanian community. This altruistic initiative adds a philanthropic dimension to the workshop, emphasizing the importance of community engagement and social responsibility.

By participating in the Building Bridges: How to communicate emotions across generations workshop, attendees not only invest in their own personal and interpersonal development but also contribute to the well-being of vulnerable populations within the Albanian community. This unique blend of self-improvement and community support aligns with the workshop's overarching theme of fostering connection and understanding across generations, both within and beyond the workshop space.
