Vulnerability without willingness to take responsibility leads to fragility and powerlessness. Power without empathy leads to control and disconnection.
This training is an in depth-exploration on vulnerability and power, based on Nonviolent Communication (NVC). We will explore what it takes to transform shame into vulnerability and at the same time not get caught up in fragility. We will use NVC, The Compass of Needs, body awareness, Integral models and much more to find how to show up with love, power and compassion.
Would you like to find or maintain your compassionate heart without giving up your own voice and your own power?

See what others say about working with Liv Larsson
Liv was my mentor for many years on the path of combining sensitivity with power. It was she who taught me the most about how such a combination is possible and what it can look like in practice.
For me, Liv is a woman who is painfully authentic, sensitive, wise, empathetic, and at the same time, an embodiment of strength and deep wisdom. When she turned 40, I asked her how she felt about it. And Liv replied: wonderful, because I know I can no longer wait to fulfill my dreams. Since she dreamed of writing books, she immediately got to work and the result is that she has already published 23 of them in various languages! For many years, several times a year, Liv came to Poland at my invitation to conduct multi-day training in the School of Trainers of Empathy-based Communication and in the Nonviolent Communication Study. Those were always amazing days, full of inspiration, laughter, discoveries, and insights. That’s why I am so excited that Liv has agreed to come to Poland in May, after many years of absence. The idea of inviting her has been on my mind for a long time, I missed very much what Liv brings, what she teaches, the qualities she radiates. Her perspective is unique and very deep.

Liv was an idol for most participants! Her sessions were powerful – I had the most intense somatic reaction I have ever experienced during a short role-play that Liv proposed to help with our exercise. She was also the most attentive out of all the trainers, always walking around during group exercises to check in and offer support where needed.
Shame sessions were extremely valuable. I am new to mediation and found that I resonated so much with Liv’s session and how NVC can be applied in mediation, that I might consider this pathway further down the road!
Liv comes across as a master teacher, who knows how to deliver just enough information so that we can practice and grapple with it and allow the wisdom within to arise. She provided the container for growth and transformation.
