Transforming Anger & Blame

Workshop will explore ways to move beyond Anger and Blame. Trying to understand and free ourselves of these responses by connecting with the values and needs hidden within them. There will  be plenty of emphasis on practice: refreshing core NVC skills, with more input on handling judgement and blame, how to redirect energy creatively, reflecting back and defusing skills, understanding and softening the source of anger, and ways to clarify apparently opposing needs. The weekend will shed light on our blocks or unwelcome patterns. We'll also look at constructive ways to meet these reactions when we encounter them in others. Geared towards people who have done a minimum of one Foundation workshop with an NVC trainer, and hopefully much practice since. The weekend will be experiential - hopefully a bit challenging and also fun. 12 people max.
