Introductory course to Nonviolent Communication

This is a course for beginners and aims to give participants confidence to start using the NVC process in their everyday lives.

We will explore the 4-step basic process using live situations that are relevant to participants. I aim to make it fun and interesting using different learning methods so that everyone feels included.

Areas we will touch on may include:

• Transforming judgments

•  Learning not to hear criticism

•  Presence and deep listening

• Being fully heard ourselves

• Experiencing true choice

• In stress and conflict, meeting all party’s needs without depriving anyone of respect and consideration

• Deepening meaningful relationships

• Handling difficult conversations with confidence

• Inspiring cooperation in others

• Transforming painful feelings, and recognising vulnerability with compassion

Learning the theory of the process is easy; learning to use it naturally and genuinely takes a lot longer. For this reason I like to run regular practice groups to support people with ongoing learning and experience. The course will be followed up with my offer to lead a regular practice group.

There will be lifts available from Malvern and Worcester. Please bring your own packed lunch for each day. The cafe will also be open on site.

Booking is essential.
