NVC - Practitioner

You usually master simple situations in a NVC-like way, but you would like to have more skills and greater confidence. Especially when certain situations come up again and again and you have the impression that you are not getting anywhere.

In this seminar you will further develop your image of humanity, thus shifting boundaries and transforming unconscious prejudices that still influence your actions. You will live lighter, more powerful, calmer and more alive - even under unforeseen circumstances.

Areas of competence that you acquire at this level:

  • come to peace with yourself, your past, your fellow human beings etc. and thereby stay connected.

Content issues:

Block I: Values, Roles, Beliefs;

Block II: Anger, rage, guilt, shame, appreciation;

Block III: Projections, Shadows, Forgiveness Regret;

Block IV: Memnoon, Asking, No, Dancefloor Work, Gratitude;

Block V: Key distinctions, practical self-empathy.

What is the time frame for this stage?

The development of these competences needs to be done gently. We do not want to push anyone beyond their limits, but give you the time you need for your change. The curriculum is divided into blocks of several days spread over several months. In between, you will apply what you have learned and gain experience that will be taken up in the next block. Between the blocks, you will receive support through peer groups and individual coaching.

Couples

Our experience shows us that the Practitioner is extremely effective for the couple relationship. At the same time, we have noticed time and again that couples sitting together in the same Practitioner seminar do not go through their own processes to the same depth as when they are at the seminar individually, i.e. without their partner.

We have therefore decided, No pairs together in the same Practitioner Seminar to have.

Details of this 15-day NVC Practitioner Seminar

Advanced training in Nonviolent Communication according to Marshall B. Rosenberg

You have previous knowledge of NVC and have already attended an introductory seminar lasting several days. You can usually handle simple situations in a NVC-like way, but you would like to have more skills and greater confidence. Especially when certain situations come up again and again and you have the impression that you are not getting anywhere.

In this seminar you will further develop your image of humanity, thus shifting boundaries and transforming unconscious prejudices that still influence your actions. You will live lighter, more powerful, calmer and more alive - even under unforeseen circumstances.

By acquiring and developing the skills to come to peace with yourself, your past, your fellow human beings etc. and thereby stay connected, you will skilfully apply NVC to your everyday life.

The development of these competences needs to be done gently. We do not want to push anyone beyond their limits, but give you the time you need for your change. The seminar is therefore divided into blocks of several days, spread over several months. In between, you will apply what you have learned and gain experience that will be taken up in the next block. Between the blocks you will receive support through peer groups and individual coaching.

Contents

We focus on the NOW and give empathy to what is. This means being in exchange with each other and taking all concerns equally. Short information blocks introduce exercise and experience sequences, which are reflected on and discussed together afterwards. In the process, you will be able to separate more and more thoughts and feelings and get to the bottom of your own thought patterns. We support you in stepping out of the usual "re-actions" and taking the time and space you need in the respective moment. In this way you will experience more coherent and powerful, life-serving behaviour with yourself and the other person. In this way we will help you to translate "attacks", "condemnations", "reproaches" etc. and to appreciate and transform your reaction to them. Accordingly, we will practise slowness and mindfulness, because conflicts feed on speed.

Your personal development and unfolding is valuable to us and so everything has its space. All concerns are equal and we accompany you empathically during the seminar times. We will also support you in the independent implementation between the seminar blocks. The core competences are empathy - first for oneself - and increasing self-responsibility. The competences and their target acquisition level of the NVC-Beginners seminar are listed in this document: Competences of the NVC-Practitioner Seminar.

Procedure and methodology

Short theoretical information blocks and teaching talks will be followed by exercises in which you will be supported by the trainers and the participants to put into practice what you have heard. You will have the opportunity to try out and experience the new attitude and relationship skills. The focus is on practical application. Reflexion and debriefing deepen the experience. We work process-oriented with various media and methods to make the experience varied, joyful and easy. We place great emphasis on the 20-minute rule.
