NVC, based on the work of international peacemaker Dr. Marshall Rosenberg, is a process that helps us see our common humanity and a concrete set of skills we can practice to create aliveness, fulfillment, inner freedom, and thriving relationships.  NVC offers a way of relating to ourselves and others moment to moment that brings us fully present.  The process is relatively simple to learn, but like learning a foreign language, may take a few years to integrate fully.    

This foundations course includes NVC concepts, experiential exercises and practice of each mode of NVC (self-connection, honesty, and empathy). 

NVC is helpful for massage therapist and other health care practitioners as it allows one to cultivate and share the healing power of presence with clients.  The skills practiced in NVC can be directly applied to the communication between therapist and client, integrating healing language with healing arts. 

People around the world are using NVC skills to transform conflict, create harmony in their relationships, and build a world where everyone's needs are met through natural giving and receiving, and without the use of coercion or violence.  

Massage Therapy CEU's are available for this training.
