| Description: | "What is Violent Communication? If 'violent' means acting in ways that result in hurt or harm, then much of how we communicate - judging others, bullying, having racial bias, blaming, finger pointing, discriminating, speaking without listening, criticizing others or ourselves, name-calling, reacting when angry, using political rhetoric, being defensive or judging who's 'good/bad' or what's 'right/wrong' with people could indeed be called 'violent communication.' What is Nonviolent Communication? Nonviolent communication is the integration of four things: *Consciousness: a set of principles that support living a life of compassion, collaboration, courage, and authenticity. *Language: understanding how words contribute to connection or distance. *Communication: knowing how to ask for what we want, how to hear others even in disagreement, and how to move toward solutions that work for all. *Means of influence: sharing 'power with others' rather than using 'power over others. Nonviolent Communication serves our desire to do three things: *Increase our ability to live with choice, meaning, and connection *Connect empathically with self and others to have more satisfying relationships. *Sharing of resources so everyone is able to benefit."- Back of book |
