A practice community to strengthen the application of Nonviolent Communication in family contexts

🙍🏾‍♀️ Are you a Nonviolent Communication Practitioner who wishes to connect more deeply and authentically with your loved ones?

😢 Do you wish to, but find it challenging, to practice NVC skills in your family context?

💞 Are you eager to practice and reinforce your NVC skills in real-life family situations?

If so, you're not alone.

Families can be difficult to navigate. Even for some of us who have been learning Nonviolent Communication, family can be one of the most challenging places to apply our learning!

Welcome to our Practice Community! 🙌

Join us as part of a practice community with an intention to practice ‘staying in connection’ especially during difficult conversations with our loved ones. This is a practice group experience for nonviolent communication practitioners who would like a focused practice on application of NVC in our family contexts.

During this 8-week online practice, we will

✔️ Practice key tenets and tools of NVC with a focus on applying them in our family context.

✔️ Explore *****the ***unique challenges that hinder meaningful connections and communication within our families, and find ways that work for us.

✔️ Practice the art of staying in dialogue, maintain connection and hold conversations even under difficult circumstances.

<aside> 💡 Our longings for acceptance, connection, and safety is most strongly felt within our family relationships. Families represent the initial communities we are born into, where as infants, we depend entirely on caregivers to meet our needs. During this phase of dependency, our fundamental patterns and core beliefs about ourselves and the world begin to form.

As we mature, although our reliance on family for survival diminishes, we often find ourselves reenacting these established patterns. What was once a survival mechanism becomes ingrained behavior. This tendency can make transforming our family dynamics particularly challenging.

The good news is that our brains are adaptable, and Nonviolent communication works!

AND it requires dedicated practice and a supportive community to sustain the change.
