About: 

I hope I can become a TA for this course because I loved it so much and want to share it with as many people as I can. I have already used the conflict resolutions with my roommates which has led to a much more peaceful environment. I also now breathe to calm myself if I get anxious like I did before the exam. I want to continue to practice mindful breathing every day because it makes me so much more calm overall. I also now know to listen to others when there is a conflict instead of just arguing my own side which is counterproductive. I plan to use the nonviolence education I’ve received in this course to live a more calm, peaceful, happy life.
