How to Use Connection Practice Boards

"The world is screaming for an answer that gets to the core of decreasing conflict, emotional distress , and the loss of human potential.  People do not know how to stay connected inside themselves and with others, especially in the face of challenges.  The Connection Practice Boards empower people to consistently move from distress to peace and from confusion to clarity.
