Hello, friends, here is a do-over of an initial meet-and-greet of our NVC Practice Group, this time with more people - hopefully the weather cooperates.
We will get to know each other and review some NVC basics and make plans for next meeting.
We will meet in person in West Brattleboro, nearby fire station. Please email me at smile_spaces@pm.me for exact address and parking directions, and to RSVP.
I would like to suggest a donation of $10 if you are able to afford it.
I invite anyone new as well as experienced in it.
Warmly,
Aliona
P.S. For those new to NVC, there are many online resources. Here is my little blurb about it: NVC is a way of communicating that embraces curiosity and non-judgment, supporting clear, respectful and harmonious relationships - inter-personal, intra-personal, professional ones. For these reasons, it is frequently used to resolve conflicts. I personally have found it to be extremely useful in therapy as well. Through NVC, we create a connection with another person by relating to their feelings and the underlying needs, longings, values. When in disharmony or conflict, we learn to make non-judgmental non-evaluative observations and practice finding creative strategies to meet the needs of both parties. It's a tool for connection, really, and it's been a super effective one for me.
