Becoming What You Need

Somatic Consensus Practices for Embodying Nonviolent Communication

For those wanting to cultivate a foundational level of competency for creatively growing their understanding, ability and confidence in sharing Somatic Consensus and practices for Nonviolent Communication. 

 Experience

1. A self-organizing well-articulated personal commitment statement (very valuable to have!)
2. A basic foundational understanding for sharing of the LS System of Practices and distinctions:
   1. SURF- Centering and resourcing
   2. Core Strategy Reintegration
   3. Internal Consensus Processes
   4. Shape Shifting/5 Elemental Practice
   5. Hollow Bone/Choosing Decisively
   6. Embodying Commitments  
   7. Spiral Blend 
   8. An increasing ability to empathize

We imagine that to form a basic understanding of the above practice would require at least 30 hours of intentional practice.

3. 1-hour personal interview and assessment with David Weinstock

• Read Becoming What You Need by David Weinstock and Marshall Rosenberg’s Nonviolent Communication and have basic understanding of the distinctions in each discipline.
