What participants are saying:

"I participated in 6 calls with Mair and a group of NVC enthusiasts through the month of January. I found myself nervous as I was new to the teleconference format and to NVC. However, within a couple of calls I felt at ease. My heart was opened by the honest sharing of participants and the deep listening and curiosity Mair brought to each session and person. Over these several weeks, I have come to feel more alive and celebratory toward myself and others. I've opened to new truths and wisdom within myself. The support of others also sharing their truth and honoring my own, has left me feeling inspired, enlivened and hopeful!

Thank-you Mair for guiding this process with such ease and integrity. And thank-you to all the participants who offered their companionship and acceptance!" with warmth, Gwen

"Mair's warmth and expertise supported so much growth for me and the other participants on the phone empathy calls. I particulary enjoyed listening to Mair provide empathy for others - I learned a lot just taking in her mastery and noting the way she engaged with people. I highly recommend this resource! - Mary Goyer, Holistic Fertility Specialist, www.aufertility.com  

"As a newbie to NVC, I was dazzled by the role-play Mair did with another person on my first call. I felt the tension as Mair's partner played the role of the partner's teenage son, asking Mair pointed and hostile questions.  And then I felt the relief as Mair gently used NVC to transform a potential confrontation into an opportunity for understanding.  I feel like learning this will help me go deeper and have more fun in my relationships."  - Kevin Bennett

"I love Mair's model of making it easy and low cost and low risk to participate in learning via MaestroConference. I was on the January calls for "practicing empathic presence with the Three Modes of NVC," and I learned  and experimented and made a few nice changes in my world. "- Helen Jones, February 2015"

"My experience on these calls is to expect the unexpected - it happens and I'm enlivened and enriched. What an empathy bargain!" - Lanna Seuret

These calls offer interactive time, not "lecture". I specialize in empathic phone connection; co-creating ease in how we proceed, facilitating flow and offering support. 

Experience community as you receive & offer empathic support with me and others as we practice the three modes of Nonviolent Communication: Empathy for Self, Empathy for Others, and Self Expression. 

Call recording links provided sent after each call. Also, membership in our community Facebook Group (optional).

Note: My "style" of empathic presence is a 'blend' of all the life experience including many other modalities as well as direct learning and practice (over 1,000 hours) with Marshal Rosenberg, developer of Nonviolent Communication. 

I've found it personally useful to have a special notebook only for these calls. You might want to do that as well? I write down each person's name and where they are calling from and something about what they want known about themselves at the beginning of the call (including myself). It helps me to hold everyone with loving care. I also do my best to find a quiet space and ask others not to talk with me during the call so that I can focus all my attention on us. Sometimes I'm impelled to draw a picture while we're talking and if I do, to share it with everyone by taking a picture of the picture to share. :-)

I've called these June calls "Empathy Pool" and "Office Hours" because I welcome both empathy and education for us in this community as we share our wisdom, love and care during the calls and within our Facebook Group.

Reminder: Our Facebook group is open to those who are on calls with me now (group and 1:1 and couples) and/or our enthusiastic about the Free Empathy Calls Project (Free empathy 24/7/365 and empathizers paid well for their service).

Looking forward to being with you in June!  -mair
