if i waas a multimillionare/billionare i wouf invest in a bunch of EQ bars.. three per city in the top 30 biggest cities
I. in the uptown area
II. one in the downtown area/or the museum/art district
III. maybe one at the airport or perhaps or perhaps near a union station
the bartenders/waitstaff would have to either be communication majors or show some interest in history of communicaton even if they have no official interest...
all staff would be required to read and learn cnvc and misc other need based/ compassion based conflict transformation material. workshops held throughout the week/weekends during the "quiet hours"
at the bar, along withh drinks would be a whole library of conflict transformation books and books on nvc, active listening, and mediating available for customers to look at at the bar... they could take it home (for a fee of course)
each bar would also have both indoor vertical gardens and an outdoor edible garden with seating area with a bookcase that included books on regenerative living and principles of permaculture (esp the human care part, and living in harmony with earth and one another)
the bartenders would be required to have full training in mediationa and nvc facilitation
whole place powered by pull down lights (ie you have to pull the rope to make the light work) and other mechanical energy converted to potential energy ideas)
