It might mean a lot to that person, and it just takes a moment.2010-09-2307 minNon Violent Communication PodcastNon Violent Communication, Day 15In today's look at non violent communication, I'm reporting on how things are going with using the phrase "I feel [insert feeling], because I [insert need]."
Magical. Really, I'm finding this hugely helpful. There is also a little discussion about the fact that many of us lose sight of the fact that we have needs in the first place -- or at least I sometimes work with people who feel that way and feel that way myself at times.

Learn about my own challenges with using the phrase "I feel", when I'm doing a self-check, and why my emotional vocabulary appears to be stuck at first grade level. Hope you'll join me, and let me know your thoughts at my blog.

I go into connecting with people at a deeper level, bringing us around to the importance of identifying and observing rather than labeling someone with a feeling. Hope you'll find it helpful.
If you'd like to start using NVC in your own life, or start some other new practice, you'll find lots of support at my blog. There's The Lemon Pie Group with support for starting something new, as well as The Elephant Manifesto to help you get started.

I spend quite a bit of time talking about the professions in which people don't show much emotion, why that often takes place, and what to do when you decide not to follow the crowd in this behavior. I hope you'll join me.

Today I'm talking bout the last couple of aspects of communication that blocks compassion, specifically, communicating our desires as demands. You'll learn about my day -- of jury duty -- as well as one final way we block compassionate communication that Rosenberg doesn't talk about.

Specifically, about moralistic judgments.
This is a point in the book where I always struggle a bit. I'll give you a couple of very specific examples of moralistic judgments that occur to me, and why these can be hugely problematic when used.
