This is a question-based program beginning in January 2022.
This series of mentoring calls are lead by 3 certified NVC trainers, Sarah Peyton, Peggy Smith, and Sylvie Hörning, alternating days to give people from around the world an opportunity to experience different teaching styles and varying support.
In these two classes, we trace the development of contracts that can be made during traumatic moments to either never be angry, or to punish ourselves or others for getting angry, and learn how to release them. We also learn that when others’ actions cause us to break our own contracts, this can bring about rage.
Join Sarah Peyton for 8-weeks that will shift your perception of yourself and your relationships through an experiential introduction to resonance and resonant language. In this class, participants will learn and practice skills for connection, mutual understanding, care and emotional nourishment.
By restoring our relationship with the part of our interior landscapes and ways of knowing that have been cut off or become dormant because of the predominant Western mindset, we can collectively contribute to an evolutionary impulse toward an eco-wise shift.
Bonus Resonant Support and Integration with Sarah Peyton: For folks who register for the full-year package, there are also 10 Bonus Resonance Sessions with Sarah Peyton to learn and practice resonance skills and nurture community.
What is projection and how is it protecting ourselves or others? Do you ever notice yourself reacting to people in surprising ways or seeing something that isn’t there? Or wondering what others are seeing in us and why are they reacting to us the way they do? Neuroscience and resonance let us enter the world of our relational shadows more self-compassion and understanding. Join Sarah to discover what relational neuroscience teaches us about this phenomenon and how to leverage our new knowledge.
Dr. Fabio Berzaghi will present on the contribution of large (and small) animals that help fight climate change and keep ecosystems healthy. His work on African forest elephants has been covered widely by global press outlets including The NY Times, including his conversation with Ralph Chami from the International Monetary Fund.
This is a question-based program beginning in May 2022. This series has been ongoing since 2021 and remains supportive of many NVC Candidates. New certification candidates are welcome!

Without healthy boundaries, it is so much harder to take care of ourselves. Claiming time and space for exercise, making healthy food, and getting the right amount of sleep can seem like climbing a mountain. In this course, Sarah Peyton will guide you on an exploration into how to know your limits and express them without having to pay more than you have in energy and shame backlashes.
In these two classes, we integrate Porges’ Polyvagal Theory with the contract tool to uncover and transform patterns of dissociation, including contracts that keep us from fully entering or inhabiting the body, both in terms of classic dissociation and in terms of the left shift into the instrumental brain and out of relationship.
Before his death, Jaak Panksepp received multiple requests to include DISGUST in his list of circuits. He refused. But the importance of DISGUST for self-knowledge, boundaries and for the integration of healthy SEXUALITY cannot be denied. The reclamation of healthy DISGUST is the reclamation of personal and systemic balance. Join Sarah Peyton to explore DISGUST in constellations.
Come experience Master Constellator Elena Veselego’s online constellation work with clients. Elena Veselago, Director of the Open Field Institute in Moscow, Russia, will be doing rare client days online with translation from Russian into English (translated by Sarah Peyton).
We live in difficult times, with overwhelming challenges affecting all of life on planet Earth. Against all odds, some of us lift up our heads above the grind to mobilize our resources to respond to intensifying climatic, political, and cultural crises. How do we nourish our capacity to do the work? With enough of three things. Vision maintains the faith that something else is possible. Action deepens our sense of agency and capacity to contribute. Mourning helps us be with the gap between our vision and what we see around us and realigns us with the flow of life.
Over the past years, our understanding of ADHD and the brains of those who experience it has shifted dramatically. What are we beginning to understand about its origins? And what can the way different people’s brains function teach us about connecting to one another and life differently? Join Sarah to explore the gifts of ADHD and the ways that resonance can support some of the struggles that come with the experience of ADHD.
These two classes review Beatrice Beebe’s research in relationship with contracts we make to maximize well-being in response to our parents’ attachment styles. These contracts particularly concern the way we mobilize our CARE and SEEKING circuits.
The climate crisis is undermining democracy just at the time we need it most. We need a strengthened ability to govern together, across divides, in order to forge our path toward a more just, sustainable future. Join Dr. Kate Knuth to explore practical approaches to responding to an ever-changing crisis.
Join Sarah for two days of in-person exploration to discover what relational neuroscience teaches us about projection and how to leverage our new knowledge.
