Nonviolent Communication (NVC) Practice Group

🌟 Welcome to our Nonviolent Communication Practice Group! 🌟

Join us every first and third Wednesday night to create a nurturing and open-hearted community focused on mastering Nonviolent Communication (NVC) for deeper, more authentic connections. Explore how NVC, developed by psychologist Marshall Rosenberg, enhances empathy and understanding in our interactions and relationships. Whether you're new to NVC or seeking to deepen your practice, our welcoming group is here to support your journey.

Our sessions include:

🔄 Check-ins and Empathy Circle: We start with a space for sharing authentically and vulnerably from the heart. This circle is our safe container for honest self-expression, practicing giving and receiving empathy, and holding space for each other's full selves.

📚 NVC Lesson/Activity: Delve into NVC through mini-lessons and exercises. Topics may include:

🔹 NVC model: Observation, Feeling, Need, Request.

🔹 Pause between Stimulus & Response

🔹 Observations vs. Judgments

🔹 Empathy vs. Non-Empathy

🔹 Understanding Feelings & Needs

🔹 Identifying Faux Feelings

In our Practice Group, you will:

⭐ Deepen your understanding of NVC

⭐ Cultivate authentic, empathetic self-expression and listening skills.

⭐ Apply NVC principles in real-life scenarios and personal challenges.

💞 Join us for a journey of learning, connection, and personal growth.
