Have you ever wondered why some people’s presence, support and listening feels so good, while other people’s support doesn’t seem to have much impact?

When we have a sense of being “gotten,” when we are being deeply attuned to, we take in the nourishment and attention and care like thirsty, struggling plants finally receiving the water and nutrients we need to grow.

Resonant attention and language changes the way we see ourselves. With our new eyes, we start to transform our experiences of shame, rage, terror and self-doubt into the sense that we are enough, just as we are. And we become a true deep allies for our friends and families.

Learn the basics of Resonance

Pernille will walk you through the basics of Resonant Language®, the work of Sarah Peyton, neuroscience educator, author, and trainer of Nonviolent Communication. The program will cover the neurobiology of our thought patterns and show a way towards making our brains a good place to stay.

Why would I learn this?

We are grown by each other. Whether our life experience has been dominated by warm curiosity and acceptance, or we’ve been met by blame and contempt, our brain is shaped by it. This is what relational neuroscience teaches us, and it doesn’t just explain how we developed into our predominant relational patterns, it points to how to heal and change that which doesn’t serve us any longer. We can access our innate, human capacity for deep resonance with ourselves and each other, and neuron by neuron, have our our brain becoming a friend, a companion. Our relationships with others will then transform, and WE will become the attuned, warm and curious other that our children, partner and friends are longing for.

Resonant language is developed from Nonviolent Communication, informed by neuroscience, and cross-pollinated with Sarah’s unique feel for human emotions and talent for language.

Who is it for?

About the venue

Frugtlageret, The Fruit Storage, located at Stevns, 1 hour’s drive south of Copenhagen, 4 km from Rødvig Train Station.

It used to be a professionally driven cherry orchard. After having laid idle for 15 years, we, a community of four women, took it over in 2015 and have gently restored it, applying permaculture principles to design and cultivation. You will find sheep with lambs, horses, chicken, wild nature, and regenerative growing of food crops. The former storage building is now turned into a cozy and warm, 65 square meter workshop space.

You will find multiple options for contemplation by the camp fire in the hut, at the pond, along the creek, or in the walnut grove.
