The NVC series at Open Tiny

Nonviolent Communication (NVC) is a consciousness practice aimed at increasing the quality of connection to ourselves and to others. It helps us grow, improve our conflict resolution skills, and our emotional resilience.

It's a series, and you can come to whichever sessions you want. One, more, or all of them. Why come to more than one? Each session stands on its own, so there's no commitment to the whole series.

Who is it for?
Any adult who is interested in self-development and/or social change. Whether you'll value it or not depends on where you are in life. Those who tend to get the most out of it are people who are longing for authenticity, and a more sustainable way to live in which everyone's insides matter.

What happens during the session?

What to bring?
Pen and notebook.

Participation and prerequisites

Sign up at least 24 hours ahead to secure your seat. The July and August sessions are introductory and open to anyone – each takes a different facet of the foundations, so they don't repeat. Prior NVC experience is helpful but not required. From September onward, please have either read at least one NVC book (e.g. Marshall Rosenberg's Nonviolent Communication: A Language of Life or anything by Liv Larsson), gained equivalent experience, or attended one of the earlier sessions.

Upcoming sessions

Each session stands on its own – come to whichever suit you. Maximum 12 participants. Free.

Questions

Do I need prior NVC experience?
No. The July and August sessions are introductory and open to anyone. From September onward, some prior reading or experience is expected.
What does it cost?
No money. Just your evening, which I intend to make worth it.
What language is it in?
English by default. If everyone agrees to German, we can switch.
Is this a series, or can I come to just one session?
Both. It is a series, and you can come to whichever sessions you want. One, more, or all of them. Each session stands on its own, so there is no commitment to the whole series.
Why come to more than one?
Understanding NVC is the easy part. The harder part is actually doing it, and doing it when you need it the most. For that, we need recurrent practice.
Where does it take place?
Kiezkiosk Open Tiny e.V., next to Treptower Straße 84, 12059 Berlin (Harzer Kiez, Neukölln).
When is it?
The third Thursday of each month, 18:15–20:15.
What should I bring?
A pen and a notebook.
How many people attend?
Up to twelve.
Can I just show up without signing up?
Yes. Signing up at least 24 hours ahead secures your seat. You are welcome to come without signing up. But if the session is full you might not be able to join.

Sign up at least 24 hours ahead to secure your seat.
