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

Wil je op een andere manier leren communiceren? In je gezin en op je werk? In deze Introductietraining leer je onder meer zien wat maakt dat jouw communicatie-strategieën soms niet werken. Ook ontdek je hoe je kunt achterhalen wat er in jezelf en in de ander leeft. En hoe je daar uitdrukking aan kunt geven op zo'n manier dat de ander naar je luistert. En 'last but not least' je leert in verbinding te blijven met de ander, ook als het lastig wordt.

This retreat focuses on creating peace and harmony inside ourselves and in our relationships. Set in a beautiful, relaxing and quiet environment, we will:
* Transform guilt, shame, fear and depression into life-serving energy; * Discover the gift of anger and practice safe and effective ways of releasing it; * Heal past experiences contributing to current pain through empathy; * Liberate yourself from suffering by understanding those whose behavior stimulated rage or shame in you; * Identify and fulfill unmet needs, leading you to be more fully authentic and alive. | This is an opportunity to address challenging life experiences that are still with you. | LOCATION: Villa Maria Center, www.villamariaretreats.org | COST: $495-550 tuition; $50-100 discount when registering with others; $325-375 room/board | begins Tue. 2p, ends Sun. 3:30p | REGISTER: Jean Lauer: jlauer@hbci.com (preferred) or 507-453-0576

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.

“The Living Energy of Needs” supports the ongoing development of foundational NVC skills and consciousness. In addition to supporting core NVC skills, we have continued to develop our training over the past five years to help participants practically access and live from a deeper dimension of needs. We weave the experience of the living energy of needs throughout the training, as the core dimension from which we learn and live the NVC process.
Join “The Living Energy of Needs” to strengthen your NVC skills and deepen your ability to access the consciousness and life enriching energy of needs beyond the simple identification of them.

Nonviolent Communication är ett stöd för dig som vill lära dig kommunicera på sätt som skapar mer kontakt och mindre motstånd. Det är en kommunikationsprocess som hjälper oss att skapa en dialog där vi kan mötas i samförstånd. För den här kursen används ett digitalt klassrum där du får individuell feedback på din uppgifter. Där har du också möjlighet att dela funderingar och insikter med andra som går kursen.
Kursinnehåll: Varje vecka behandlar vi ett kapitel i boken Nonviolent Communication, ett språk för livet. Du gör övningar för att tillämpa det du lär.
Kursmoment och arbetssätt: Kursen är helt på distans, utan fasta träffar och vi möts via Internet. Du kan alltså befinna dig vart du vill så länge du har tillgång till Internet vilket innebär ett flexibelt lärande där du själv kan välja när du gör de uppgifter som följer med utbildningen.

NVC is a concrete set of language and practical communication skills. Together, they form a powerful process that transforms conflict, creates harmony in relationships, and builds a world where everyone's needs are met peacefully.

Nonviolent (Compassionate) Communication by Dr. Marshall Rosenberg offers a clear, practical process for communicating without judging ourselves or others and to hear others' feelings and wants even though they might be hidden behind judgments and critici sm.

You will be learning the basic NVC steps as well as practice with your own examples.

This is a 16-hour foundation workshop for people who would like to improve communication with children in their lives. It will give you all the tools you need to start using NVC in your daily life. We work with real life examples in a fun and safe environment.

Videregående kursus.

I dybden med empatiens styrke og forvandling af indre og ydre konflikter, og høste frugten af ærgrelser.

Der gives dybere indføring i hvordan IVK kan anvendes til at afspænde konflikter, både i arbejdslivet og i privatlivet.
Der vil være fokus på følgende:

Empatiens forudsætninger
Vredens dans
At høste frugten af ærgrelser
At finde næring til at fortsætte IVK processen

At anvende IVK i både indre og ydre dialoger er et stort skift i forståelsen af hvordan tanker, følelser og behov spiller sammen. På dette kursus vil vi bl.a. undersøge hvordan vores erfaringer i livet indtil nu påvirker os i samspillet med andre. Vi vil lære den "indre autopilot" at kende, så vi får mulighed for at standse op og bruge bevidstheden, især når en konflikt er ved at trappe op.

Vi vil gennem hele ugen arbejde med den indre dialog. Lære de indre konflikter at kende ved at finde frem til de værdier og uopfyldte behov der ligger bag.

Are you ready to transform your guilt into peace of mind and positive action? Join us for this six-step process which reveals the true gifts that guilt can offer. Once you have learned the process, you can easily guide yourself through it at home whenever guilt knocks at your door.
While the Radiant Relations Seminar Series rests fully within the consciousness of NVC, I also incorporate tools from additional modalities, including The Work of Byron Katie, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), The Secret, Voice Dialogue and Core Transformation.
