❀ The 'Living Compassion' course with Nadine:
 Robert Gonzales, Trainer for NVC (CNVC), has dedicated his life to living compassion. In his approach to NVC he emphasizes connection to the living, vibrant energy that needs carry as a doorway into our soul. Our practice lies in cultivating a felt sense experience of their energy inside of us. I have learned with Robert since 2006 and the tools I received have benefited me deeply, particularly in moments of pain and disconnection.
 
What will we do in the 'Living Compassion' course?
During this course I would like to introduce you to the living energy of needs and help you develop concrete skills to transform obstacles to embracing life compassionately and connect with the beauty and fullness of needs by sharing:

❀ Exercises to allow a felt experience of the fullness of needs vs the lack.

❀  Concrete NVC based processes (e.g. Transforming the pain of unmet needs to the beauty of needs; Preparation for authentic dialogue) to add to your tool box for life.

❀  Contemplative practices like meditation and inquiries (alone and in pairs) that engage the heart and the felt sense of the body and can be used and established as an ongoing meditation practice in your life in order to live needs-based

❀  Time to get in touch with yourself as well as community time are an essential part of this course

I will mix in my own inspirations that I receive from mindfulness and yoga, neuroscientific approaches like Rick Hanson’s work, my training in Internal Family Systems work with inner parts  (IFS) and inspiration I receive from my NVC colleagues and friends.

I would enjoy if you want to join me in this exploration.
