"Teaching NVC” - What Does it Mean to Share this Consciousness?
Recorded at the
1st Global Festival
Robert Gonzales
Saturday, 30 May 2020
Teaching NVC/sharing NVC, formally and informally.
What does it mean to teach/share NVC? What is it to live NVC?
We will explore integrating the consciousness that supports sharing NVC with the principles, map, and conceptual framework of the process. A premise of this session is there is no sharing and teaching NVC without living it.
Robert Gonzales’ work, Living Compassion has emerged from a lifetime of inquiry into the intersection between spirituality and human communication. His influences include Dr. Marshall Rosenberg (founder of Nonviolent Communication), Stephen Schwartz (creator of Compassionate Self-Care).
Robert received a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology in 1989, and was a practicing therapist for many years, offering individual and couples counseling. He met Marshall Rosenberg in 1985 and began teaching NVC in 1986.
Robert’s work Living Compassion has evolved as an integration of embodied spirituality and Nonviolent Communication. His trainings offer ways to cultivate daily practices for living life fully, grounded in compassion for one’s self and others.
Robert passed away in 2021.
