Publisher's summary
Nonviolent communication, or NVC, is a strong communication tool, but it goes much further than that.
It's a way in the world to be, dream, and live. The aim is to encourage heartfelt connections between ourselves and others — connections that allow compassionate giving to meet the needs of all. This encourages us to give from the heart and others. It also allows us to communicate with our inner divinity and from moment to moment with what is alive in us.
We might say that NVC is a language of compassion, but it is truly a language of life in which compassion naturally comes. The model shows us how we can communicate what's alive in us and see what's alive in others. When we know what's going on in us, we can look at what we can do to improve our life.
Nonviolent Communication evolved from an intense interest in two issues that I had. First, I wanted to understand better what happens to humans which leads some of us to act violently and exploitably. And secondly, I wanted to understand better what kind of education fits our efforts to remain compassionate - which I think is our nature - even when others act violently or exploitably.
The idea that has been around for many years suggests violence and abuse happens because people are innately evil, egoistic, or aggressive. But I've seen people who aren't like that; I've seen a lot of people who like to contribute to the well-being of each other.
So, I wondered why some people seem to enjoy the pain of other people, while others are the opposite.
I found the following three reasons to be very important in understanding why some of us react aggressively and some of us respond compassionately in similar situations:
- The language we've been taught to use
- Why we got taught how to think and talk
- We have learnt specific strategies to affect others and ourselves.
In this book, you'll learn:
- How to communicate effectively and make people listen
- How to resolve tough conflicts
- How to listen to your communication partner
- How to process anger-ridden information
- How to express yourself calmly when angry and be listened to
This is a book you'd enjoy listening to!

Story
Freedom from unnecessary suffering is the goal of both Buddhism and modern psychotherapy, yet each approaches this intention from a very different perspective. "Buddhist practice helps us awaken to a well-being that is independent of our circumstances," explains Bruce Tift, "while Western psychotherapy helps us bring our disowned experience into awareness in order to live in a more skillful and satisfying way."

Story
Onward tackles the problem of educator stress, and provides a practical framework for taking the burnout out of teaching. Stress is part of the job, but when 70 percent of teachers quit within their first five years because the stress is making them physically and mentally ill, things have gone too far. Unsurprisingly, these effects are highest in difficult-to-fill positions such as math, science, and foreign languages, and in urban areas and secondary classrooms - places where we need our teachers to be especially motivated and engaged.

The average divorce takes two years with a median cost of $30,000. Yet the true cost of divorce is more than time or money; it is the legacy of the decisions made during the process.
