Trauma and Our Broken Fields:

Projection and What Others See with Sarah Peyton

Weekend Workshop

Friday, June 3 - Sunday, June 6

Presented by Sarah Peyton, CNVC

Location:

Wellspring Conference Center

11411 Neelsville Church Road

Germantown, MD 20876

***Please note: Event registration closes May 27. The venue needs final numbers in advance.

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 uin advances and why are they reacting to us the way they do? What exactly is projection? And how is it protecting ourselves or others? What role does trauma play in all this?

Neuroscience, NVC empathy, and resonance let us enter the world of our relational shadows with more self-compassion and understanding. 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.

This is an in-person intensive that stretches over 2 calendar days plus check-in the night before. Check-in and dinner start at 6 pm on Friday, June 3rd. The workshop will run 9am-5pm on Saturday with 1.5 hours for lunch. There will be an optional group constellation offered in the evening after dinner on Saturday. On Sunday, the workshop will run from 8:30am-4pm, again with 1.5 hours for lunch.

Cost includes:

2 calendar days of teaching with Sarah, 2 nights lodging, and 6 meals

Goodbyes

It is with deep sadness that we bid goodbye to Fran Delahanty. In her professional life Fran taught psychology, communication, and peace education at Pace University in New York. When Fran moved to the Baltimore area after her retirement she immediately reached out to the local NVC community. She gifted us with a file box of NVC handouts which she used during her long career. Her passion for sharing NVC with young people was evident then and it continued as she joined us and became a great supporter of our effort to reach very young people. Fran wrote the description of An Inside Story: A Children’s Book for Grown-Ups Too! on Amazon and it is much longer than the book! I’ve never been able to edit it down because it beautifully describes the practice she loved and demonstrated. Her energy will be missed.

By Chris Hartstein

Chris and Leland said their goodbyes this week five years after having met at a Capital NVC workshop in Baltimore (then called B’more NVC). It was through this warm community, created by Barbra Esher and Hally Childs, that their friendship and collaboration began. Workshops at Friends School, their children’s book and empathy doll grew out of this collaboration. It was a happy goodbye as New York is calling Leland away from our area and that is not so far.
