Dehumanization and Bliss

“We only feel dehumanized when we get trapped in the derogatory images of other people or thoughts of wrongness about ourselves. As author and mythologist Joseph Campbell suggested, “‘What will they think of me?’ must be put aside for bliss.” We begin to feel this bliss when messages previously experienced as critical or blaming begin to be seen for the gifts they are: opportunities to give to people who are in pain.”

Marshall B. Rosenberg

Expressing Heartfelt Needs

Learning to express deeply heartfelt and important thoughts in a way that is heard and responded to is an art. Often, unclear or emotionally charged requests can hinder effective communication, leaving you feeling unheard and isolated. The goal is to share in a manner that communicates needs while maintaining connection and respect.

Nonviolent Communication (NVC)

NVC is a practical and learnable approach to infusing empathy, honesty, strength, and compassion into personal and professional relationships. It encourages authentic and natural expression, fostering confidence, clarity, and deeper connections, especially during challenging times.

What are participants saying?
‘Learning about NVC with Simon is a delight! His warm, playful energy and teaching through doing builds connection and confidence. This is not another training by PowerPoint online after a long day at work. It is meaningful, engaging and practical. He breaks down the key concepts of NVC and helps us nurture and love our jackal. I feel more in touch with what needs are and how to articulate them to others. I’m excited to continue my NVC journey and continue to build my communication skills.’
