Intention

Anger, Guilt, Insecurity, Depression, Pain, Fear… these are not your favorite feelings, are they?

And yet there they are, coming in a variety of different moments and situations.

So why do they come and what do they have to tell us? What is the brilliancy and beauty of these emotions, and how can they serve your life and your relationships?

This weekend is dedicated to the brilliancy of the unpleasant feelings and the Art of Mourning.

When I have an unpleasant emotion my habit is to go up to my head and think: “I have a problem. I need to do something in order to solve it, to get rid of it”.

In my view, this deeply ingrained attitude toward our unpleasant emotions is the source of much of the suffering on the planet.

Emotions are a very precise and delicate mechanism. They are here to serve life, to bring me closer to my values and lead me to stand firmly for my needs. They are an intelligence inside me, there to lead me to the most precious places.

Wholeheartedly I can say that I love being depressed. I love guilt, fear and insecurity oh so much!

This training is dedicated to our delicate relationship with our own emotions, as well as with the emotions of others.

We will explore how we can allow unpleasant feelings and emotions to do the work they are there to do. How they can connect us with our life projects and the dreams we wish to live.

This weekend is dedicated to trusting your own body to guide your life!

This weekend is a Nonviolent Communication training inspired by my previous experience as a professional dancer and choreographer, where I dedicated 15 years to working with the body.

❀  The Beauty of Anger – enjoying Anger as a beautiful life force that is there to care for our traumas and our most vulnerable parts

❀  Liberating from Guilt – fully realizing that Guilt does not exist. Allowing moments of Guilt to be seen as an inner conflict, experiencing The Art of Being Torn

❀  Fear as a Door to My Life Project – using fear to help firmly connect to our life project and life strength

❀  Empathy in the Body – welcoming unpleasant feelings and meeting their flow in the body

❀  Speaking with Myself Compassionately – insecurity and depression as a door to the core of our humanity

Nonviolent Communication (NVC) (PhD Marshall Rosenberg) is a practical communication tool that radically transforms your relationship with yourself and others. NVC cultivates assertive honesty mixed with a deep quality of Empathy. NVC transforms conflicts into love and clarity.

NVC takes you from your meditation cushion into real life – it helps you live your deep values in relationships and millions of day-to-day life situations.
 NVC deeply transforms your communication with yourself toward a quality of profound compassion.

You will be invited to work on examples from your own life in an interactive and safe learning environment. We will practice Nonviolent Communication through demonstrations, role-play and exercises in order to integrate NVC values and language more into our daily lives..
