This program is based on Nonviolent Communication (NVC):

Nonviolent Communication is a language of compassion, a tool for social change, and a spiritual practice. Its basic premise is that behind all human actions are needs that people are seeking to meet. Understanding and acknowledging these needs is creating a shared basis for connection, which leads to natural care, cooperation, and peace.

This process focuses our attention on compassion as our motivation, rather than fear, guilt, blame, or shame. It emphasizes taking personal responsibility for our feelings and choices, and improving the quality of our relationships as our goal.

No previous NVC experience is being required, though reading the first 6 chapters from Marshall Rosenberg’s book “Nonviolent Communication: A Language of Life“ is highly  recommended !!!

Plan:   

• We will evaluate our past year without self-criticism, focusing on the learning we have received, celebrating our successes and mourning and healing our dissatisfactions.
• Coming back to presence- We will explore the power of honesty: giving feedback without being critical, developing the skills to handle people's response to our (radical) honesty.
• We will explore the power of empathy: how to hear what is in another person's heart regardless of how they are expressing themselves. How to express and hear "no" with compassion.
• We will explore the art of making realistic plans for the future while staying at present.

About Eva Rambala:

• Before studying Nonviolent Communication (NVC) I thought I was born in the wrong family.   I thought that to be happy I must change these people close to me.     Applying "empathic listening" I found that it is enough just to fully hear what is alive in others' hearts. When the sense of being heard comes, flexibility radically increases, and conflicts dissolve.
• I discovered Nonviolent Communication (NVC) in 1996. Ever since, I have been committed to using it in every aspect of my life and, for the last eight years, been teaching it to others. I've seen in many different cultures how NVC effectively handles conflicts with family, friends, and colleagues in an honest, loving and compassionate manner. Of all the topics to which this approach can be applied, empathy is for me the sweetest, and I love the aliveness and the presence that comes with honesty.
• In 1999, I became an authorized trainer of the International Center for Nonviolent Communication (CNVC). I worked closely with Marshall Rosenberg, the founder of CNVC for 5 years in many trainings in 30 different countries all over the globe. I love the openness and love which is created after a couple of days training.
