NVC is a practice, a consciousness and in its fullness a lifelong learning path. David Weinstock's somatic/body awareness practices integrated with NVC’s brilliant linguistic skills bring our deep caring nature into the foreground of living.

Listening and speaking empathically when we are in pain is very difficult. David’s somatic approach for embodying NVC helps to develop self-awareness and the skills needed to reconcile the inconsistencies between our hearts and our lips, what we say and what we do, and brings coherence of communication anchored in what we most deeply care about.

Together we’ll explore gentle physical and verbal practices to deepen empathic listening skills for self-healing, finding our voices, making comprehensive choices, harmonizing difficult conflicts within and around us, and effecting positive change – whether personal, social, environmental or political.

PURSUED GOALS:

To bring awareness to the nonverbal communication, habits, stories and responses underlying our words and actions.
To identify and articulate what we love about the paths we’re choosing.
To develop collaborative strategies that honor everyone’s needs.
To build skills for managing feelings of overwhelm.

This 5-day intensive cross-training of physical, emotional and linguistic domains to embody NVC is a very special opportunity for individuals, groups, teachers, coaches and therapists who want to learn and share new and effective ways of embodying empathic communication and healing in all aspects of life, at home, work and elsewhere.

“I FELT TOUCHED, EMBRACED BY THAT ESSENCE OF NVC
THROUGH YOU. AS MANY OF US EXPRESSED, THE QUALITY
OF CONNECTION AND THE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT YOU
CREATED WERE DEEPLY NURTURING AND SUPPORTED US
IN LIVING THE PRACTICE."
