Feedback from Camp 2013
"The facilitators worked with great skill and sensitivity to support the group and individuals, illustrating the principles of NVC clearly in their behaviour. The nourishing setting, the variety of activities, the wonderful group members and the lovely food

"I loved the site, with its twisted oaks and old buildings: it was steeped in atmosphere to me. I also loved having the afternoons off, to meet other needs like FUN!! I can find it hard to meet my need for fun at camps, so it made all the difference having a slot for that, or for catching up on rest. the pub is fantastic, and swimming in the pond was equally fantastic. Lastly, the people and the bonding was wonderful."

"The camp was wonderful. I came home exhausted emotionally and have slept long and deeply for several nights.
I came to camp wanting learning, to increase my understanding of NVC and how to practice it in my daily life. I think what I am still learning is that NVC really isn't a technique. When I create the desired state of peace in myself, I think the most appropriate language will follow. We'll see how that goes... I realised near the end that what I most needed was the safety to be able to drop some defences, to be my most authentic self. To be able to do that for a week was wonderful." Mike
"I enjoyed myself at the camp. It was a very relaxing experience in a peaceful setting, with some lovely people. It was a delight to have such wonderful food cooked for us! Thanks for all your work in making it happen." David
