Nonviolent Communication: A Language of Life by Marshall B. Rosenberg

5.0

I learned about nonviolent communication as a child from my mother, who placed stickers of positive and negative emotions on our living room walls, for us kids to learn the words to express our feelings. These stickers hung around for many months and were curious to visitors.

As a teenager, I gave workshops about Marshall B. Rosenberg's communication style to my classmates and members of various volunteering organizations I was part of.

While I think I was still unconsciously applying many of the principles over the past years, I learned a lot of new and old ideas when reading this introductory book.

I so wish that the techniques of this book become more widely known because I think the world would be a better place if we all start acknowledging what is alive in us and others and willing to express our needs and fulfill the needs of others if we can.

Please read it, if you haven't done so yet :)
