Experience NVC consciousness through exercises as if attending a live workshop with Mary.

Express feelings and needs clearly to foster connection and understanding.

Trainer Tip: Mary explains the NVC principle known as the "protective use of force."

Trainer Tip: NVC asks us to be aware of our needs and discomfort is evidence of an unment need. However focusing on ourselves when we're uncomfortable isn't always the best choice.

Trainer Tip: Using NVC as a tool to transform our judgments can revolutionize our perceptions and relationships.

Rejuvenate your inner world and relationships through deep self-empathy practices.

Trainer tip: NVC consciousness recognizes interdependence. In this process each person is autonomous; everyone's needs matter; people have choice and responsibility for their actions; there's abundance, and a valuing of coming together. The dependence / independence paradigm assumes we either need someone else to be whole -- or we don’t need others at all. Commit to living autonomously. Notice where you struggle with this.
