Do you ever...

 

find yourself trying so hard not to judge your child, or yourself and yet the judgments still appear?

And then you judge yourself for judging?

 

Do you love the idea of empathy…you’ve seen how beautiful it is…but in the real moment everything in you freaks out and you react? 

 

Do you want to stay connected during conflict, with your child, your partner, or anyone else, but your body goes into old patterns of pleasing, shutting down, reacting, or disappearing?

 

Do you wish you could say “no” with clarity and care…stay steady inside yourself…while still holding warmth for the person you love?

 

Do you long for compassion toward yourself, something deeper than surface level affirmations, something that actually lands inside your body?

 

If you’ve been longing for a grounded and compassionate way to relate to others and to yourself, you’re in the right place.

I Want This

Maybe you notice patterns like:

 

  • wanting to empathize but instantly going into fixing or teaching 

 

  • not understanding what your child is trying to tell you but really wanting to

 

  • having unpleasant thoughts about you or your child and then spiraling with them

  • getting swept into someone else’s emotional intensity

  • reacting, yelling, shutting down, or disappearing in conflict

  • saying “yes” when you mean “no,” or saying “no” in a harsh way

  • wanting honesty but fearing it will hurt connection

  • wanting to care for your needs and your child’s needs without abandoning either

 

And maybe what you’re really longing for is:

 

  • a way to be with big emotions (yours or theirs)

  • a way to navigate conflict while staying connected

  • a way to see the beauty inside your child’s uncomfortable feelings

  • a way to stay with yourself in hard moments

  • a way to speak honestly and with care

  • a way to hold everyone’s needs with more clarity

  • a way to foster connection even when things feel messy

 

I Want to Communicate This Way

What We'll Learn

 

  • how to navigate conflict with our children

  • how to foster connection in the messy moments

  • how to harvest the gifts in every conflict and see the beauty in our children’s uncomfortable feelings

  • how to understand what our kids are really trying to tell us, regardless of how they bring it

  • how to care for our needs and our children’s needs, and find ways to carry everyone’s needs together

  • how to hear and say “no” in a way that serves our connection

The principles of this course apply to every single relationship, including the one with ourselves, although this course will have a focus on children.

How We'll Learn 

 

This course is based on the facilitators understanding of the work of Marshall Rosenberg (Nonviolent Communication) and is taught by Esty Adler, who has trained for years under Yoram Mozenson, a master teacher in this field.

This course is workshop-style and very experiential.

 

 

There will be:

  • real-time demonstrations

  • guided practices

  • examples drawn from participants’ current lives

  • opportunities to be seen and supported (only if you want that)

  • a structure that allows you to continue practicing between sessions

 

You will not be memorizing scripts and ideas.
You will be experiencing empathy, honesty, and connection in real time.

Throughout the six weeks you’ll practice:

 

  • empathy

  • deep listening

  • self-connection

  • expressing yourself with honesty and care

  • staying grounded in difficult moments

You’ll learn by watching, trying, asking, witnessing, and being supported all within a safe environment where everyone is at choice.

You also have access to a private WhatsApp community for support, connection, and practice between sessions

Accompaniment

 

One of the most powerful parts of this course is the support you receive.

A space where you can share what’s going on for you or ask for empathy.

Women from last year’s cohort are still practicing empathy together, almost a full year later.

They reach out when they’re:

  • flooded
  • overwhelmed
  • or simply wanting to practice

And if someone is available, they reply.

(See images below!)

Many have made meaningful and lasting friendships.

"I was dreading a hard conversation, and it ended up feeling deeply connecting. I didn’t know that was possible.”

This course will be led by Esty Adler.

About the facilitator:

I have always been searching for the balance between authenticity and connection. How do I be honestly myself, in moments where that might risk our connection? 
The desire to understand how to negotiate this led me to move to Amsterdam, in order to live and learn Nonviolent Communication from my teacher, Yoram Mozenson, and his Connecting 2 Life community, for the past 5 years. Through this adventure, I’ve been gifted essential tools to meet the delicateness of life in every moment.
 
My favourite part of this work is meeting myself and others in our uncomfortable feelings, especially anger and conflict. The precious feelings of love, joy, awe and connection hidden in precisely those places we reflexively avoid, is what I want to spend the rest of my life uncovering, and helping people to discover.
 
In the past few years, my NVC learning has led me to assist my teacher's courses, teach my own courses, as well as offer conflict and dialogue facilitations for couples and one on one empathy sessions for individuals. I am also in school to become a CORE Energetics therapist, a body based psychotherapy.
 
I’m so grateful and eager to share the tools and gifts NVC has brought me, with you.

It is our hope and wish that the tools that contribute to healing and harmonious relationships are accessible to every single person on this planet that wishes to have access to them. Because of that, we do not want money to prevent anyone from having access to this course.

The reason we chose money as payment for this course is because money is a strategy that is possible to be used in exchange for the biggest variety of options, and so it makes it easier for us to meet a variety of needs with it. That being said, if money would be the only thing preventing you from taking this course, we are open to dialogue to see if it is possible to find a way that can meet both of our needs here.

I Want to Communicate This Way

What women are saying

 

“I have had the same conversation or argument with someone in my life over and over again. For the first time, I came into the conversation with NVC tools, and it was incredible how different it felt. It was a very moving experience.”

Compassionate Communication Course Attendee

 

“I am so blown away by how both effective and affective this course has been. I had two very difficult conversations recently that I was dreading, and they went so much better than I imagined. Both felt deeply connecting, and I was able to honor all parts of myself while being present for the other person.”

Compassionate Communication Course Attendee

 

“This course is really changing my life already. It feels amazing to be clear on what I need and want, even with all the old words and patterns in my brain. I am feeling so much more peace inside my body. I am so grateful to you, Esty and Blimie, and I hope the ripple effects stay with me forever.”

Compassionate Communication Course Attendee

 

“Blimie, you were right. I totally became an Esty fan. I was especially touched by how we make requests in NVC.”

Compassionate Communication Course Attendee

 

“Taking this course felt like a journey back to my true self. During the first class, I cried. I was so moved by the peace and beauty of this method of communication. It felt like it was speaking directly to my neshama, calling me back to a deep part of myself I did not yet know how to express. I didn’t have to wait long for it to start spilling out into my relationships and my home. That is why I am taking this course again.”
