Nonviolent Communication (A Language of Life)

A Seminar Enhanced by Practical Exercises

Nonviolent Communication (A Language of Life)

Marshall Rosenberg, an American psychologist, founded the “Nonviolent Communication” (NVC) theory, also known as “Compassionate Communication,” aimed at improving human connection and fostering emotional understanding. In his renowned book Nonviolent Communication: A Language of Life, Rosenberg presents practical methods for communicating with greater empathy and respect.

Key Concepts in Nonviolent Communication: A Language of Life

🍀 Active listening without judgment to truly understand emotions and needs
🍀 Self-empathy as a foundation for empathizing with others
🍀 Focusing on needs, feelings, and clear observation rather than judgment
🍀 Compassionate requests that express needs while considering the needs of others

The book serves as an essential reference for education, social work, and conflict management.
