Course
Applying NVC skills in my daily interactions with my partner and children has brought more understanding and deeper connections in our home. Of course, I don't always manage to stay calm and steady, so I also rely on NVC to RE-connect after a conflict. In the class, I give an overview of these (learnable-for-anyone) skills and many personal examples.

Are you looking for tools to building a long term relationship with your child?
Would you like to focus on cooperation rather than using punishment and bribes even when faced with challenging situations?
And do you have children in the early years?
If you said yes to all these, then this course is for you!
Does your child have trouble falling asleep?
Does he/she struggle to concentrate at school?
Does he/she have difficulties talking about their emotions or lack self-confidence?
Many children and adolescents have difficulty concentrating. They do not sleep well, worry and have concerns. They also find it difficult to relax, or to simply switch off and do nothing. And they are continually online. Their head is too full, the triggers too many. They are told to so many things.
By themselves, by school, by society. How do you teach a child to relax, to stop worrying, to trust in their own qualities and stay afloat in this demanding 21st century?
Men can develop sadness, despondency or even depression in reaction to parenthood in a similar way to their partners do. However whereas women are often screened for signs of developing sadness, men are rarely asked how they are feeling about the life changing event that is about to occur, or has just occurred.
