Compassionate Communication (Nonviolent Communication or NVC)Compassionate Communication

Overview of Compassionate Communication

The world we create together begins with the world we are creating in ourselves.  Through transforming our judgmental thoughts and stories into the life-energy of our universal human needs, we can act with compassion and empowerment in the world.  The Compassionate Communication process gives us practical and powerful tools for transforming conflict and for enriching our lives and the lives of others.  This process supports a way of being in the world that is based on creating heartfelt, empathic connections where everyone's needs are equally valued and peacefully met. 

Practicing Compassionate CommunicationCompassionate Communication, also known as Nonviolent Communication, was developed by Marshall Rosenberg founder of The Center for Nonviolent Communication ~ www.cnvc.org

 "I just attended a weekend workshop with about 15 others. I am so grateful to have been a part of it. It met my need for community and contribution. I feel like my connection to myself Mir Centreand others really allows me to be more of who I am, as does expressing from a place of awareness and being honest with myself and others about my values. What a great gift. Thank you Eric!!" ~ Danielle Westlake
