The way of Council: A Key to Deep Connection and Meaningful Relationships

At Uriel Center, we believe that every individual deserves a life filled with meaning, connection, and self-fulfillment. Through the Council method, we aim to empower the innate ability within each of us to communicate in a deep, respectful, and supportive manner.

What is the way of the Council?
Also known as the "art of speaking and listening from the heart," Council teaches us to truly listen, understand another person's perspective, and respond in a respectful and supportive way. In addition, dedicated and continuous practice of the method helps each person to develop full and authentic expression and strengthen empathic listening and understanding.
Council is also an ancient practice that fosters deep connection and community. It involves active listening, honest sharing, and respect for all voices. By embracing differences and opening to others, Council helps us find our own voice and wisdom. It is a valuable tool for personal growth, group dynamics, and healing.

4. Improving self-confidence: The method empowers us and strengthens our belief in our ability to communicate effectively.
