Dian Killian, Certified NVC Trainer:
Join Dian Killian and discover the power of imagery and metaphor in deepening your empathy practice. This segment from her 6 session course explores how visualizing sensations, emotions, and needs through metaphorical language can enhance the connection during empathy guessing, particularly in somatic-based approaches. By incorporating relatable images, you create a natural and colloquial way to resonate with others, offering them a profound sense of being seen and understood. Whether navigating feelings of overwhelm, anxiety, or self-empowerment, using imagery in your communication can make empathy more tangible and impactful. Join us to learn how this technique can transform your practice and relationships.
