Nonviolent Communication

Nonviolent communication is a way of talking and listening to others that helps us express our feelings and needs in a kind and respectful way. It also lets us think about and understand other people's feelings and needs better. Using nonviolent communication helps us build stronger, more understanding relationships and foster better communication.

To do nonviolent communication, we focus on using language that expresses our thoughts and feelings without blaming or attacking other people. We also try to be understanding of the other person’s feelings and needs and look for solutions that can help everyone get what they need. Above all, we stay calm and try to find common ground.
