During each call we explore core principles in real time and gain practical skill to take back into our daily lives. We do this by utilizing various activities that support us in listening for the deeper needs of ourselves and others which ultimately supports us in transforming our judgments, building our capacity for compassion and increasing our skills to make peace. COME TO LEARN ~ COME TO LISTEN ~ COME TO BE HEARD. WHO THESE EVENTS ARE FOR: All are welcome - basic understanding of NVC principles and communication model is requested but not required. Please see suggested intro videos below if you are new to NVC or if you would like a refresher. HOW/WHERE WE GATHER: All calls are held over Zoom. Once you register (via this form) you will be on our email list and will receive an email a few days ahead of the call and on the day of. The email will include the Zoom link for the call, along with any other pertinent details. WHEN: Every 2nd & 4th Wednesday of the month, 7:00 - 8:30pm EST (watch out for those sneaky 5th Wednesdays that show up once in a while that mess up the every-other-week rhythm) The 2nd Wednesday sessions will be facilitated by one of our three co-facilitators during which we will offer a variety of activities and exercises. The 4th Wednesday sessions will be more gently held in terms of facilitation and will offer an opportunity for traditional empathy practice (feelings & needs guesses) in dyads or triads.
