Improve Self-Compassion
Apply compassionate self-talk techniques, acknowledge the mistake as a learning opportunity, and reassure yourself with kindness.

Enhance Emotional Relationships
Be less triggered and able to maintain a greater understanding of other’s needs, reducing the intensity and duration of negative feelings.

Cultivate Inner Peace
Find your inner calm and trust in life’s process, relaxing into the unknown. This helps you approach the change with a peaceful mindset, rather than anxiety and fear.

Enhance Connection with the Environment
Tap into the awareness of life’s interconnectedness and recognize the life that pulses around you— even in an urban setting. This awareness allows you to feel a part of something larger and fosters a sense of belonging.

Develop Acceptance and Effective Action
Through these practices, you learn to develop true inner acceptance of what is, rather than what you want things to be. This acceptance empowers you to interact with family members more effectively, respecting their autonomy while maintaining your values.

Designed with both newcomers and seasoned practitioners in mind, this course does not require prior reading of the book, although it is recommended to enhance your learning experience.

Who was Robert Gonzales?

Robert’s passion was in the spirituality of the Nonviolent Communication (NVC) process. He saw NVC both as a process that helps people connect more authentically with themselves and others, and as a spiritual practice and way of living.

The worldwide NVC community mourned when Robert died in 2021. He left behind a legacy of work that emerged from a lifetime of inquiry into the intersection between spirituality and human communication.

People across the world who learned from him express that they could not have done their own work without having experienced Robert’s presence and compassion.

Iris Bawidamann worked with Robert Gonzales for 10 years, learning from him and assisting him. For the last 6 years, she has been sharing his work Living Compassion in seminars.
