A Language of Life (Non Violent Communication)

A Language of Life, (N.V.C) is a model of communication created by clinical psychologist Marshal Rosenberg. It aims to establish connection & understanding by expressing ourselves peacefully, honestly and accurately while be able to receive others with empathy & understanding.

N.V.C begins by assuming that we are all compassionate by nature

and that violent strategies—whether verbal or physical—are learned behaviours taught and supported by the prevailing culture.
 

N.V.C also assumes that we all share the same, basic human needs,

and that all actions are a strategy to meet one or more of these needs.

People who practice the Language of Life have found greater authenticity in their communication, increased understanding, deepening connection and conflict resolution.
