DESCRIPTION
Do you want to bring more ease, authenticity, and embodied flow into your NVC practice?
So many who start learning NVC say the same thing: “I understand the model, but I don’t want to sound robotic or scripted—I want to make this sound like me.”
This 4-week experiential course with Dr. Yvette Erasmus is designed to support you in exactly that!
Rather than focusing on “getting it right,” this course focuses on embodied presence, truth-telling, and deep process orientation so that you can find your unique voice and relational integrity in the moment.
Together, you will explore:
🗣️ Translating NVC into your own natural voice without losing the heart of the practice
🧘 Speaking from embodied awareness, not intellectual performance
🤝 Developing congruence between your tone, body language, and words
🌳 Staying rooted in your values, even when things get tense or messy
🔥 Practicing truth-telling without attachment to outcomes
💖 Using moments of disconnection or “messing it up” as sacred opportunities for repair
What to expect:
Each session will include short teaching segments, live demonstrations, paired or small group practices, and reflection prompts for real-life integration.
Week 1 – Finding Your Voice:
Translating NVC into authentic, personalized, everyday speech
Week 2 – Embodied NVC:
Letting the body lead: congruence, tension, tone, and nervous system awareness
Week 3 – Real-Life Conversations:
Dropping the script and trusting your internal compass in the moment
Week 4 – Living the Practice:
Repair, resilience, and returning to love when things go off track
