Sarah Peyton, Certified NVC Trainer: How do our nervous systems sync during connection, and what happens when disconnection occurs? In this Sarah Peyton video, we explore the profound interdependence of human relationships through the lens of Nonviolent Communication (NVC). From the physical pain of relational loss to the importance of acknowledging and repairing harm, we dive into the rhythms of connection, disconnection, and reconnection. Learn why relational repair requires holding space for feedback while maintaining self-worth, and discover how dissolving unconscious contracts can open the door to deeper, more authentic relationships. This is a transformative look at the science and heart of connection.
