Achieving Safety by Mary Mackenzie  |
Check out Mary's workshop below!
|
I spent most of my life looking for my personal safety in other people. With this attitude, I spent a great deal of time determining whether someone was safe or not, judging other people as abusive, and blaming other people when I felt hurt or disappointed. The result was that I felt afraid because I depended on others to keep me safe, and I didn't feel empowered to manage my own life. Nonviolent Communication teaches that safety is not something that other people can provide. I can best meet my needs for safety when I gain trust in my ability to take care of myself. In this model, safety can come from such tools as learning ways to meet my own needs, speaking up when I am unhappy or worried, and trusting my own instincts. When I trust myself, I am empowered to stop looking to others for my safety. |
 Living Radical Self-Compassion Join Mary to discover the inner places that hold the most meaning for you and then create a self-care plan that sustains you as you move in that direction. |
Leveraging Your Influence
Delve deeply into the practice of living the principles of NVC by using NVC as the "organizing principle" for our work in the world. Rather than focus on specific skills to teach NVC formally, we intend to focus on all the real-life situations in which using NVC can move us and our environment closer to the dream of a needs-based world.
