About Linnaea's work

"My earliest memories are filled with the joy of seeing the blinding beauty in the uniqueness of each individual. I awakened slowly to the realization that not everyone in my world saw themselves and others in this way and I am often filled with mourning when I think this beauty in us is not seen. Nonviolent Communication and particularly the work of Robert Gonzales has offered me both insight into why this is so, and tools and methods to support the full emergence and embodiment of our inner beauty. My work focuses on supporting the learning and development of the skills that support emerging the fullness of our own authenticity through embodiment of the consciousness NVC points us towards: To hold an intention to connect with the needs of ourselves and others equally in a spirit of pure natural giving.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Self-Responsible Practice Group: A Guide for Facilitators and Participants
Created by NVC Facilitator Linnaea Marvell from Newport Beach, CA. USA.

These materials support the creation and flourishing of self-repsonsible practice groups—for facilitators and participants.

The Self Responsible Practice Group Kit

"I believe that one of the most important skills we can develop in practice groups, if not in life, is self responsibility.  It supports our ability to both connect with the life in ourselves and in others.  I am also deeply committed to the practice of NVC from the consciousness in which we deeply hold the intention to connect to what is most alive both in ourselves and in others in a spirit of pure natural giving.  In the Self Responsible Practice Group materials I have attempted to support both the emergence of the consciousness AND the development of self responsibility in groups.

The kit includes all of the supplies necessary to support the facilitation of the first set of basic understandings:

  • 1 Facilitator Guide
  • Participant Guide
  • Feelings Cards
  • Needs Cards
  • Request Cards
  • Feelings Tent Cards
  • Needs Tent Cards
  • Three videos
  • A game board and pieces.

Please note: Facilitator Guides and Participant Guides are sold separately so that they can be purchased one for each individual who will use the material.  My request is for support of future development of these materials and honoring the effort that went into producing them by actually purchasing one guide for each one you intend to print.

The Self Responsible Facilitator Guide

This guide is based on the assumption that some facilitators may be learning the material along with the rest of the group.  No prior understanding of the material or facilitator training is required to use this.  Individuals who want support for facilitation are invited to sign up for Linnaea's class (see link).  The guide includes instructions and helpful information to support facilitators through each lesson and through what to do when things don't go as planned.  This book covers an introduction to jackal and giraffe consciousnesses, the four components, an introduction to empathy and the beauty of needs.  This is book one in a three part series.  Each lesson is presented as a lesson plan with step by step instructions and timing for each part of the process.
