    There is no set amount for this course. Though we offer below guidance to people in choosing how much to give, it is intended as support for you, not as specific requests. We invite people to register using a gift economy approach so that everyone can have access and our work can also be sustainable. We ask that you give the most that you can do without overstretching or resentment. You can learn more about our thinking and about choosing your amount here. 

    • Supporting Others to Attend: $310 (Many people will not be able to contribute at the sustainability level so we depend on some people having the capacity and willingness to contribute more)
    • Sustainability for Nonviolent Global Liberation (NGL) and NVC Academy: $210 (helps to support the trainers and NVC Academy to continue offering courses)
    • Installment Payments: Make 3 payments of $70 if registered by December 1
    • Increased Accessibility: $25 (if you are from a marginalized group; or part of the global south, regardless of where you live and would like guidance on how much to give, this amount is just over 10% of the amount that is sustainability level)
    • If the above options are still a barrier for you to join, or if you would like to contribute a different amount, please choose the amount you can give, even if it is $0. Restoring the gift flow means, also, stretching into receiving.

Yvette Erasmus shares Terry Real's grid as a tool for exploring a spectrum of emotional responses. We all have feelings and sometimes we get dysregulated or frozen up. How do you want to express and be in connection with other people? Can you attune to the relational context that you are in?

Duke Duchscherer explores responding to people who are committed to a punitive process rather than a restorative process. He suggests looking for what needs are met by the punitive process. Could those needs be met in a restorative process?

Yvette Erasmus shares that we can translate or shift how we hear right and wrong language. We can use the cue - What is needed? I wonder what they are needing? This helps direct my attention to more relationality.

Yvette Erasmus shares practices to help us develop a regulated nervous system. We all get hijacked and triggered at some point. When that happens we can travel a blame and shame road or we can greet ourselves with graciousness and self compassion.

Many of us have been raised within a right/ wrong culture. From very young ages, we are asked, "What is wrong?" Yvette Erasmus shares a different view where emotions can be seen as expansion and contraction, where they can help us identify our needs.

Yoram Mosenzon suggests that when we make positive language requests, we tell people what we want. We give them an image of what would make life more wonderful. What we usually do is tell people what we do not want. This tends to create resistance.
