Embodying Somatic Practices Part 1 with David Weinstock

Living Connected - NVC

Season 2: This episode will be part one of a three part series with David Weinstock. Here is David’s Biography.

David Weinstock is executive director of Liminal Somatics, a Somatic Coach through the Strozzi Institute and Stuart Heller’s Five Rings Coaching Institute and originator of Somatic Consensus. He is a certified international trainer of Nonviolent Communication and author of Becoming What You Need: Practices for Embodying Nonviolent Communication. David is also a master goldsmith(www.goldmuse.net) and has taught the peaceful art of Aikido for over 40 years. He leads training locally and around the world, in his community, schools, prisons, organizations, and businesses.

David and his wife Judith, along with 8 other families, co-founded an intentional community where they have raised their family since 1990. They have devoted their adult lives to generating Community and committing themselves to an integrated and intentional way of living. All of David’s work--in particular his present organization, Liminal Somatics--is based on building our connection to one another and toward a healthy stewardship of the earth. He is committed to developing our capacity to value what each of us brings to the circle, to reclaim community and value diversity for the sake of creating a nurturing world for generations to come.

In this part one episode we talk about the foundations of the NVC practice with Aikido and take you through some examples of what that looks like. David has a different approach to connecting with feelings by integrating our body sensations. Our bodies hold emotions and trauma and there are ways to heal these parts of ourselves so we can live a better life.
