We will focus on developing a deeper, profound, life-connected empathy practice.
Through games, exercises and practice sessions we will deepen our skills, awareness, understanding and ultimately our ability to connect to all of life - within and without yourself.

 What People Say About Thom
"Thom supports and contributes to people from his heart because he really cares about the future of our planet with nonviolence as the beacon of hope."

- Compassion Course Participant


“If I gave appreciation for everything Thom Bond has contributed to me, I wouldn’t have time for anything else.”
- Marshall Rosenberg

“Wahhhhhh Thom! I thought introspective awareness was a specialty I had received during 23 years of regular meditation and spiritual studies. However, without this Compassion Course, I would have never discovered alone, the depth of thinking regarding judgments. I have been trying so many things to realize the ignorance of a judgmental attitude, but the seed was still in me… just because I never experienced the Inner Power and the Wisdom that comes from understanding needs.”
- Compassion Course Participant.
I’m still amazed. Relationships that were stuck in old patterns have become fluid, caring and loving. Perhaps, at sixty-six, to find a new love with my husband, a warmth and closeness with my children, it all seems like a miracle.”
— Compassion Course Participant

“I wholeheartedly endorse and will recommend The Compassion Course to anyone who is new to NVC and to people who want to deepen and integrate the skills and consciousness.”
— Robert Gonzales, CNVC Certified Trainer – living-compassion.org
“Thom’s style as a teacher is one that is filled with personal stories and examples that are meaningful and thoughtful. He does not place himself above anyone else.”
