APuK Seminar

(Ambassador PLUS and Candidate Seminar)

13-day seminar for NVC-Ambassador alumni and certification candidates. This includes a 7-day training retreat (residential).

You have completed the NVC Ambassador or are a registered candidate on the NVC certification path and would like to expand and strengthen your NVC awareness, your capacity for deep, sincere empathic connection with yourself and others, so that this lives in you as a majority unconscious competence.

You want to experience how you can come out of conflict into a quality of deep connection that touches and includes the dimension of spirituality?

You want to increasingly recognise yourself in the calm power of NVC consciousness. Accept that you are attractive to others. You notice that people are oriented towards you?

Competences that are consolidated in this seminar:

Connection:
- Connecting in hot moments
- Enter into a sincere connection even with the biggest trigger
- Staying connected - connecting for the sake of connecting
- Being connected with everything (spirituality)
Opting out of social customs

Format and time frame:

The seminar consists of 3 parts:

Part 1: 3 days seminar in the rooms of Fokus Empathie:

Become a study group
Remembering the principles of NVC again
formally work together and at the same time start to connect sincerely

Part 2: 7 days seminar in an external location, with evening sessions and overnight stays:

Close, intensive living together according to the principles of NVC, alternately stimulated by the trainers as well as by what naturally arises from the group and its individual members.

Part 3: 3-day seminar in the rooms of Fokus Empathie:

Close open processes, round off, conclude

Focus Empathy provides a space where we leave the usual teaching and practice setting and start a community adventure with the group.

In 3 blocks we practise "the real thing" life.

Why does it take several years to fully integrate NVC and why is it important to stick to the process of integration?

We have all grown up unconsciously following "rules of the game" of society

and the systems to which we belong. We abide by these rules of the game because they are meant to provide us with protection, belonging and a raison d'être for ourselves.

They include codes of conduct, ethical norms, rules and above all: taboos. Which means: adapting behaviour on the one hand, not (allowed to) talk about it on the other. It is not uncommon for conflicts to arise that are not addressed or named because even talking about them could touch on such a taboo.

For example, we don't allow ourselves to give sincere feedback to a colleague, certainly not when other colleagues are around. Because one of the rules of the game is: "You don't drive colleagues up the wall.

Or saying no with clarity and appreciation to a person who is above us in the "structural hierarchy" is insurmountable for many of us. That is not our place in the role.

As a result, the unspoken is embodied in this system and usually expressed non-verbally by all participants. Instead of naming what is actually going on, we justify ourselves and rationalise our silence.

Mentally, we have known for a long time how we could apply NVC, but often old reactive patterns from our childhood injuries and attachment patterns get in the way and control us more than our willingness to apply what we have learned.

From our experience, such deep patterns can be changed and transformed through positive relational experiences in the application of NVC. Through continuous learning, research, application and being supported by the group. Deep imprints that we have carried since childhood, which are usually based on protection, need time so that our subconscious learns to give up the old protective strategies in order to allow for new, more effective ones.
