"I’m grateful for everyone who chose to come to this intensive. My need for community was manifested so completely and beautifully that I’m leaving filled with hope."

- Eileen, NYI 2006

"The first NYC intensive was such a wonderful and nurturing experience. Because it was a full week, I was able to develop deep connections with other participants, and to sink into NVC consciousness in a deep way. This left me feeling overjoyed and profoundly satisfied with the experience!"

- Jason, NYI 2004, 2005
