(1:00 AM/12:00 AM GMT/next day)

There will be extensive coaching and feedback offered. To maximize practice opportunities, each trainer will facilitate a smaller group during portions of the program and the class size will be limited to 24 participants.

Connect with others in a 6-week workshop series integrating the skills and consciousness of empathy, honesty and self-connection in the context of becoming a "third presence" with others who are in conflict.

This course is ideal for parents, people in partnerships, business people, or anyone who wants to improve their relationships with others.

  • Focusing on observations, feelings, needs and requests to support people in taking responsibility for their own experience, and being compassionate with themselves
  • "Pulling by the ears" to help people hear the observations, feelings, needs, and requests of the other parties in the dispute, and build compassion for each other
  • Offering "emergency first-aid empathy" when emotions are intense and people do not have the resources to listen to each other
  • Tracking and balancing the process to clarity that everyone's needs are heard and acknowledged
  • Identifying and using needs as a guideline to craft agreements
  • Using requests to find strategies, and checking to see if they work for everyone

Greetings, Friends,

I hope your New Year is filled with joy and you are all remembering to attend to the life within you and balance self-care! Breathe!

Ahhh....

And I feel excited as I consider you joining Jori and me for a wonderful opportunity to deepen your NVC learning and practice.

Beginning on January 6th, we will begin an innovative new practice group via NVC Academy. We will focus on building the consciousness of NVC and Radical Compassion by focusing on specific skills featured in the book we are co-authoring with Jack Lehman and Jake Gotwals, the other 2 CNVC trainers living in New Mexico. The group will be experiential and interactive!

The foundational skill of Presence will open the new practice group and be our focus for at least the first two sessions. I feel intrigued about utilizing new teleconference technologies to provide an experience that is the next best thing to being together in person.
