Nonviolent communication
Practice Groups
NVC Practice Group is open to anyone with an interest in learning about and practicing the Nonviolent Communication process. The intention of this group is to deepen our NVC consciousness, develop our awareness and practice our skills.
Practice Group is an open space, meaning we will use this time together to delve into real-life situations and exploring how to infuse NVC consciousness. So, please bring your questions and your concerns!
“Before you speak, ask yourself:
Is it kind, is it true, is it necessary, does it improve upon the silence?”
About Nonviolent Communication Practice Groups
With the understanding of Nonviolent Communication (NVC) we learn to hear our own deeper needs and those of others. Through its emphasis on deep listening — to ourselves as well as others — NVC helps us discover the depth of our own compassion. This language reveals the awareness that all human beings are only trying to honor universal values and needs, every minute, every day.
NVC can be seen as both a spiritual practice that helps us see our common humanity, using our power in a way that honors everyone's needs and a concrete set of skills that help us create life-serving families and communities.
The form is simple, yet powerfully transformative. These Practice Groups are for both those who have already learned about NVC and for those who are just discovering it and would like to learn more.
