"Know thyself"
–Socrates
This course is based in Marshall Rosenberg's Nonviolent Communication and Focusing as taught by Ann Weiser Cornell
Caring for your most enduring relationship–the one with YOURSELF
Transform negative self-talk
Do you do things out of shame, anxiety, or self-punishment? Learn to relate to your thoughts in a way that leaves you feeling empowered, not stuck.
Understand WHY you do things
It's not because you're a bad person. Learn what motivates people and why we sabotage ourselves.
Develop your self-compassion
Learn to listen with compassion to what's going on inside. Feel calmer and more choiceful rather than getting triggered.
Level Up Your Communication Skills
Practice speaking your truth and asking for what you want in a way that's more likely to lead to a mutually beneficial outcome.
