A 6 night regenerative retreat on an organic farm in Tuscany in the company of other wonderful women passionate about creating sustainable change.
Our Yoga+Life Lab is a space to explore how insights from ancient wisdom and movement traditions can support us to live and contribute with greater alignment in our modern world. Come and join us at the beautiful VVOO yoga studio in Seefeld to explore lessons from 5 elements that can help us find ease in your life and work, on and off the mat!
How we interact with one another, even at the smallest level, can ripple out to create change in the world.
Yet, how many of us experience conversations in our day to day lives and work that are truly grounded in understanding, empathy, and transformation?
In this workshop, you will join other women working in food systems, sustainability, regeneration and social and environmental justice to explore the approach of Nonviolent Communication and how it can help us be empathetic leaders of change.
The foundation of understanding the systems we are a part of and want to change, and to creating new possibilities to move forward, lies in connecting more empathetically to ourselves, others and the world around us.
The Great Full is partnering with Empathie Stadt Zurich to host this workshop, where we will explore how we can peacefully and effectively resolve conflict and collaborate more compassionately to co-create change.
Nonviolent Communication builds capacity to connect with ourselves and others to create a world that works for everyone.
Through the method of Nonviolent Communication, we will explore in a real and practical way how we can foster empathy, connection and resolve conflict in our professional and personal lives.
Together, we will explore tools and approaches that help us build our capacity to:
Listen empathetically
Express ourselves compassionately and effectively, even in difficult conversations and conflict
Build stronger relationships and collaborations by bringing both authenticity and care for connection with the other party
Build our self-compassion
Collaborate and give and receive feedback with others
You will leave with a toolkit of practices that you can take away and keep practicing after!
