NVC TRAINING INSTITUTE OFFERS A 7 DAY TRAINING:

THE LIVING ENERGY OF NEEDS
A Seven-Day Intensive
Practical applications for everyday life

July 12th - 19th, 2008
Dunsmuir Lodge, Sidney, BC Canada
with Susan Skye, Robert Gonzales, Gregg Kendrick

"The Living Energy of Needs" supports the ongoing development of
foundational NVC skills and consciousness. In addition to supporting core NVC skills, we have continued to develop our training over the past five years to help participants practically access and live from a deeper dimension of needs. We weave the experience of the living energy of needs throughout the training, as the core dimension from which we learn and live the NVC process.

In the words of recent participants…

“This is a totally new dimension of NVC that I never knew existed.  It really resonates with my spiritual experiences.”

“I’ve been practicing NVC for 3 years and I am excited about the way your training is touching into a level of depth that is unexpected.  Now I can experience needs not as something lacking, but as a fullness.”

“I’ve been dealing with this issue for years, and today, for the first time, using  this simple process [of transforming a core jackal belief with the living energy of needs] I felt complete freedom with respect to this limiting core belief.”

Join “The Living Energy of Needs” to strengthen your NVC skills and deepen your ability to access the consciousness and life enriching energy of needs beyond the simple identification of them. 

The training will include opportunities to:

  • Identify your current strengths and growing edges in the application of NVC in your daily life
  • Learn an in depth process for self connection that transforms pain into life-supporting energy
  • Understand the core belief structures that shape our experience and perception and see their relationship to needs
  • Receive feedback and coaching on structured presentations
  • Deepen your understanding of the domination and partnership paradigms and the role of needs in each paradigm
  • Understand the spiritual foundation of NVC
  • Learn and live with a dynamic community of people who share a life-serving vision

Benefits of this Training:

  1. An Intensive Retreat Experience
    Immerse yourself in the NVC consciousness.
    Renew and refresh your spirit.
    Connect with others who are seeking to live from this way of understanding our experience.
  2. Concentrated NVC Processing and Growth
    What are your unique challenges in living the process?
    In what situations do you find yourself responding in ways you don't like? Or simply not knowing how to respond?

    This retreat will offer focused opportunities to identify these situations and to do the work to experience the shifts that will take each of us to the next level of NVC consciousness.

    Sample topics include: dealing with reactive triggers, staying connected with yourself in tough situations, dealing with emotional intensity (including anger), and giving and receiving honest feedback.
  3. Coached Practice in Sharing NVC (primarily for those already facilitating & teaching)
    • Get a chance to practice your skills in
      • Teaching
      • Leading / facilitating groups and/or
      • Mediation.
    • Learn by doing with coaching and guidance
    • Tailor your practice to the level and type of challenge you want, whatever your level of experience.
    • Receive individualized feedback on your unique strengths and opportunities for learning at this point on your NVC journey from these four very experienced trainers and mediators.

  4. Support for a Variety of Learning Styles
  5. While the majority of the workshop is designed to provide experiential learning, there will also be opportunities for those who enjoy learning by observation, and those who benefit from enhanced conceptual understanding of the principles that underlie NVC.

For those who were left wanting more of the types of experiences created in our Advanced Trainings - here it is!

We look forward to co-creating this training with you!
