Looking to level up your communication skills? Join us for the 14th Annual NVC Conference hosted online for the second time by the NVC Academy, the online classroom for learning NVC concepts. This is a full weekend of enriching workshops with trainers from across the world.

This year's conference will be held online via Zoom so you can attend, learn, and practice from the safety and comfort of your home.
Come make some new friends, expand your support system, and gain NVC skills for every area of your life.

Join Sarah Peyton for a two hour exploration of how we can use our NVC skills and our knowledge of relational neuroscience to heal ourselves of shame and the pain that comes with it.

Have you wondered how family constellations might help us repair attachment wounds and blocks in the flow of resource from past generations to future generations, and from parent to child? Join Sarah for an overview of the neuroscience of the prefrontal cortex and amygdala, followed by an illustrative constellation using these elements to see how the blocked flow of love can be healed and made flowing through resonant healing and attention.

Have you heard the term ‘gaslighting’ — when someone creates alternate reality within which we feel crazy, and causes us to doubt our own sanity? Learn about what’s happening in the brains of both parties of gaslighting, and what steps we might take for recovery.

The world is becoming increasingly uncertain. How can we understand all manner of brain behavior with patience and compassion in a world that is rife with violence, despair, oppression and uncertainty? With resonance. Join Sarah to explore the neuroscience behind conspiracy theories and political extremism.

In a world filled with upset, our nerves can become frayed, our tempers can be short, and our ability to cope can go missing. In times like these, we need to know everything we can about how to nourish and support our own well-being. Join Sarah Peyton for a workshop that integrates the latest research in neuroscience with techniques in resonant language that help us self-soothe and generate self-warmth with exquisite gentleness.

What causes us to react to others and how long does it take for our bodies to calm? Learn the role implicit memory plays in reactivity, and how we can use empathy and resonance skills to transform reactivity into calm and connection.

Do you ever have a sense of not mattering? Or are your clients sometimes unsure if they exist? Is there an unending search for home or tribe? Are they willing to accept the gift of this life? And what do we do when they can’t accept this gift? What do we do when we ourselves are ambivalent about the gift of life, especially now, in today’s world? Join Sarah for an exploration of neuroscience in constellation work.

How do we explain the astounding epidemic of loneliness and anxiety in the western world? Learning what is happening in our bodies and our brains as we deal with loneliness and activation of the GRIEF/PANIC circuit helps us take care of ourselves with warmth and compassion. Join Sarah for an exploration of one of the greatest ills of our time.
