This workshop will be an introduction and beginning practice of Marshall Rosenberg’s Nonviolent Communication. The text for this workshop is his Nonviolent Communication: A Language of Life (2nd edition). Workshops of 3 and more days are available in the Asheville area.
Marshall Rosenburg’s model of communication, Nonviolent Communication is known worldwide and has received many awards for peace. Dr. Rosenburg is a clinical psychologist who grew up in a tumultuous Detroit neighborhood which led him into questioning and studying human behavior. He studied under Carl Rogers (Person Centered Counseling) at the University of Wisconsin another inspiration for his studies. His later work with comparative religions brought about a need to explore methods for a peaceful resolution to conflict.
Counselors and social workers will learn and practice the four basic components of NVC: observation, feeling, needs, and request. The specific behaviors to carry out the 4 basic components will be integrated through revisiting life experiences and utilizing case studies from your current and past counseling practice. Dr. Rosenburg describes NVC, “What I want in my life is compassion, a flow between myself and others based on a mutual giving from the Heart.” He also describes more in detail, 2 parts of NVC: “one, expressing honesty through the four components, and two, receiving empathically through the four components”.
OBJECTIVES:

OBJECTIVES:
- Participants will develop an understanding and working model of using NVC in their lives and with their clients.
- Participants will recognize and transform judgmental or hurtful communication that blocks fully compassionate listening and counseling.
- Participants will learn and practice empathy from a new understanding of “emptying the mind and listening with our whole being”. (Rosenberg)
