Nonviolent Communication (NVC) offers powerful tools and perspectives to support:
Experiencing these benefits involves making an inner shift that allows us to think differently, and show up differently. Learning to make this shift involves ideas, experience, awareness, and intention. These increase inner clarity and open-heartedness. With these, we can speak naturally, without focusing on formulas, and we and others are likely to enjoy the results.
This two-hour experiential workshop offers a taste of new tools, insights, and practices that support an inner shift to a more peaceful and enlivened way of being and relating. While fuly realizing these benefits takes more learning and an ongoing practice, this workshop offers a place to start.
Who This is For
This workshop is intended anyone interested in taking initial steps towards living a more satisfying life. It's also for those without prior experience with Nonviolent Communication who are interested in attending the subsequent Skills for a Happy Relationship weekend workshop.
