NVC Scotland Community Gathering 2018

A day of learning and community building

Warmly welcoming everyone with an interest in NVC (NVC = Nonviolent Communication as first conceived by Marshall Rosenburg).

The day will entail…

– Circles at the beginning and end of the day where we come together

– A wide choice of sessions on specific topics (see below)

– Small group work where we share NVC experiences, wonders and blunders

– Empathy space where we can offer and/or receive empathy around something very alive for us

– NVC-related movement exercises

– Time to chat and connect over a shared lunch.

All of us gathered will be working together to create and hold a safe and exciting space for meeting needs for sharing, practicing, connecting, exploring and celebrating.

Based on our current capacity as a community, this is a day designed for adults.

Sessions offered by experienced NVC practitioners include:

– Roz Adams on NVC tasters and how to introduce NVC when you don’t have 2 days

– Shona Cameron:  Frequently Asked Questions about NVC and How to Respond

– Verene Nicolas:  Leaning towards fear – a body-based NVC practice

– Sandrine Miesch and Shona Cameron: Three Steps to Keep Dancing in Balance

– And many more TBC…
