Day

This Practice Group begins with a "remembering" for inspiration, centering and connecting with ourselves. This is followed by a "check-in" when we share how we are, what we bring with us or what we hope to receive during the session. Activities include: short education exercises, empathy, role-plays, games and discussions. Participants can facilitate the group with prior arrangement with Rodger Sorrow

Time 7 - 9 PM Pacific

Donation $10

Open to all

In this Nonviolent Communication workshop we will learn to:

•Become aware of the internal messages that promote guilt and shame.
•Connect and empathize with the unmet needs underlying guilt and shame. Thus, transforming such feelings into life-serving energy.
•Shine light on unconscious guilt and shame impeding self-love and self-acceptance.
•Understand the mechanics of fear.
•Learn to fully enter and intimately observe fear, thus freeing oneself from it.

Whether you want empathy, support, skill development, healing, clarity, fellowship or more, join us for any or all of these NVC Deepening Playshops. We'll use participants’ situations and various tools (e.g. role-plays, NVC Dance Floors, No-Fault Game mats and cards, Surround Sound Feedback) to attend to what's up for you and to develop your NVC fluency.

NVC enables us to connect empathically with other people, and helps us
to help them to connect empathically with us. But what do you do when
you are feeling angry or upset to the extent that you don't want to
empathise with them? And they feel the same about you?! We call this
empathy collision, and on this day we will explore what is happening in
these situations and how we can get around this impasse. This day will
be practice oriented, to help you develop and rejuvenate your skill
with NVC.

This 5 day 'Living NVC' experience allows the integration of NVC to happen in a natural way. With a maximum of 10 participants, we learn, teach, weep, laugh, cook, walk and dance together, using the skills and consciousness of NVC. Each day we decide together what we will do, in an atmosphere of support and fun, where everyone's needs are valued. All this takes place in the 'Come to Life' Barn, with accommodation in my home, in a village on the edge of the beautiful Cotswolds in Gloucestershire.
