This interactive workshops links the developmental stages of the integral theory with nonviolent communication in new ways. Nonviolent communication is a powerful approach for understanding and solving conflicts and has been successfully applied in global conflicts.  The Integral Theory and it’s stages of development provide orientation for our complex world.
Combining NVC and stages of development leads to a more mature & coherent understanding and application of nonviolent communication. Integral Nonviolent Communication acknowledges and integrates the qualities of the stages. Hence, it allows us to find more appropriate, meaningful ways of communication. In our global community displaying a wide range of world views Integral Nonviolent Communication offers the next step of evolution in our ability to communicate & resolve conflicts.
The workshop offers self exploration, group practices together with playful insights for the application of an integral nonviolent communication.

Integral Yoga Meditation is a spiritual path. It combines & integrates body, breath & spirit to a holistic way of practice. Asanas, mindful breathing, praṇayama, chanting, recitation, silent meditation, walking meditation, darśan are all part of its path. This integrative practice is the groundwork and preparation for yoga/ samādhi.

In this morning workshop, we will practice gentle asanas, praṇayama and mindful breathing to allow a state of stillness and peace in us.
Everyone is welcome, even if you have no yoga experience so far.

At the beginning, a short presentation is given to introduce the topic:
The pressure to adapt to the conditions of an organization can be understood as a narcissistic trauma. In our personal socialization strategies develop how we deal with this trauma. Often an organization develops a momentum of its own in which the pressure to adapt is not reflected. The interaction of personal strategies and organizational structures is a constant field of tension. Conscious handling is an important characteristic of an “integral” organization.

This is followed by an imagination exercise: It is about sensitizing the learned strategies in dealing with the pressure to adapt in organizations. Already as children we develop strategies in dealing with parents, kindergarten and school. Later it is the education and the professional life which takes place in organizations.

This is followed by an exchange of experiences with the focus on how my personal strategies are reflected in my current dealings with organizational structures.

Afterwards results from the work of Integrales Forum holacratic shadow circle will be presented with the desire to start a further exchange with other integral organizations on the subject.
