Day workshop
Introduction to Nonviolent Communication
What happens when you truly listen? When you give words to what's alive in you, without judgment, with softness and clarity? One day, in a small group, to discover how connective communication can change your conversations.
Why Nonviolent Communication
For conversations that flow instead of friction
Nonviolent Communication, also known as NVC or Connective Communication, is the method created by Marshall Rosenberg. It helps you discover what's happening beneath the surface: feelings, needs, and longings. In yourself, and in the other person.
From there, room opens up for understanding, collaboration, and real connection. Not by pushing harder to be right, and not by erasing yourself either, but by saying clearly and gently what's really going on.
What you'll learn
A day of practicing, experiencing, and discovering
We work in a safe, small group, in an experiential way. Not much 'should', plenty of exploring and feeling.
Observing without judgment
Recognizing and naming feelings and needs
Empathic listening, even in difficult conversations
Expressing yourself clearly and respectfully
Working with anger, resistance, and discomfort
There's room for practice, reflection, silence, exchange, and lightness. Whatever shows up is welcome. You'll go home with concrete tools, more self-insight, and confidence in your own way of communicating.
Who it's for
This day is for you if you
- Long for more connection at work or at home
- Notice that conversations sometimes get stuck
- Are curious about yourself and others
- Want to communicate with more softness and strength
No prior knowledge needed. Just a willingness to show up.
