Hi there! Welcome. 

This free taster is an invitation —  a living moment of Nonviolent Communication breathed into presence. You'll get a direct, felt sense of what makes Reality NVC different: connection that happens live, in real time, meeting you and the needs most alive in you right now.

Join a circle of people learning to listen, and the quiet discovery that compassion isn't a technique you apply — it's something you remember how to inhabit.

What You'll Experience

A short guided arrival into presence — settling the nervous system, coming home to the body, so that what happens next isn't thought about but felt.

A live taste of the NVC form — Observations, Feelings, Needs, Requests — held loosely, as scaffolding for something more essential: an unshakeable quality of presence that doesn't need to think about what to say next.

Real practice, not theory — small group meetups, a plenary reflection, and space to notice your own jackal (that inner voice of judgement and blame) with warmth rather than shame.

A feel for the teaching style — light, friendly, playful, and safe, with just enough stretch to learn something real. As one participant, Lizzie Guinness, put it:

                 ' This is not another training by PowerPoint online after a long day at work. It is meaningful, engaging and practical.'

Free to Explore Any Time

If you can't make a live taster session, you can still get a genuine feel for this work:

Why This Work Is Different: Reality NVC

"What I want in my life is compassion, a flow between myself and others based on a mutual giving from the heart." "Don't do anything that isn't play." — Marshall Rosenberg

The Reality in Reality NVC is the compassionate connection that happens live. Working live carries more risk than working from a script — and also more reward: immediate felt shifts, a vivid sense of connection, a deeper and more embodied learning.

Here, the NVC "form" is secondary. It finds its natural expression from a grounded essence — Embodied Relational Presence — a synthesis of Mindfulness, Focusing, and Nonviolent Communication that creates an unshakeable, resilient, creatively connected way of being with others.
