Center
for Nonviolent
Communicationsm: A global organization helping people connect
compassionately with themselves and one another through Nonviolent Communicationsm, a process created by
Marshall B. Rosenberg, Ph.D.
What is Nonviolent Communication?
Imagine connecting with the human spirit,
in each person, in any situation.
Imagine interacting with others in a way that allows everyone's
needs to be equally valued.
Imagine creating
organizations and life-serving systems responsive to our needs and
the needs of our environment.
The process of Nonviolent Communication (NVC) helps connect us with what is alive in ourselves and in
others moment-to-moment, with what we or others could do to make
life more wonderful, and with an awareness of what gets in the way
of natural giving and receiving.
NVC strengthens
our ability to inspire compassion from others and respond
compassionately to others and ourselves. NVC guides us to reframe
how we express ourselves, how we hear others and resolve conflicts
by focusing our consciousness on what we are observing, feeling, needing, and
requesting.
Nonviolent Communication: It is a process of empathy and honesty, and is
sometimes described as
“the language of the heart.”
