This series was postponed until further notice due to low enrollment. 

As we all live in the unprecedented times of Covid-19, this 3 week series will explore our relationship with support in these times. Whether we are sheltering in place or working the frontlines, our experience of living interdependently takes on different meaning than it used to. Join a group of folks who already practice NVC in inquiry and empathic resonance to see what we can catch in ourselves and others, to bring understanding to our experience.

What kind of support is accessible to you? What kinds aren’t accessible? What support are we willing to ask for, to offer to others?

What core beliefs or unconscious contracts are behind the places we are reluctant to ask or offer?

I know that Zoom, as a screen based mode, isn’t always my favorite way of being with people. But it is what we have, and I am committed to making the best possible use of the tools and my skills to create a space that is rich and engaging on this topic.

I’m putting this out as a “Beyond Basics” offering, asking that participants have working knowledge and some existing practice of NVC, as I want us to use the principles instead of teaching them. That would translate to at least having taken Basics/Foundations or read the book. I expect most participants will have more experience than that. If being on Zoom is new to you, please email kristin@nvcsantacruz.org in advance so I can make sure you are oriented and we can minimize the challenges and show up early onto the first call.

I’m also putting it into eventbrite with a wide array of sliding scale to allow for each registrant to adjust to a payment that matches your current ability to pay as you can while taking my/our needs into account as well. I do ask that each person register, however, so I have emails to send out info on the Zoom and some inquiries in advance.
