'Beginner's Mind'
Nonviolent Resistance (NVR) is a powerful (yet gentle), ethically-sound philosophy and skills-set that can help anyone living with and/ or supporting children and young people who might present in violent, aggressive and destructive ways.
During the first lockdown in 2020, we developed our NVR - ‘Beginner’s Mind’ online group sessions and they have proved incredibly popular, attracting attendees from all over the UK, the UAE and the USA.
NVR is a systemic, parent-centred, child-focussed approach which concerns itself with the raising of parental presence in the household and in the broader family and social systems.
Our NVR - 'Beginner's Mind' Group consists of 6 fortnightly, two and a half hour online meetings for collaborative information-sharing and discussion about the fundamentals of NVR. No prior knowledge of NVR is necessary, just curiosity and a willingness to explore a new way of approaching troubling behaviours.
Groups consist of a mix of professionals and parents/ carers which has made for really interesting discussions and some great learning opportunities (you can read some recent feedback below).
