The purpose of Nonviolent Communication is to create the high quality of connection out of which people naturally and spontaneously want to contribute to one another’s well being. Sexual assault is a painful topic, and it’s understandable that someone would not want to talk about it.

If you are reading this, you share a dream with me; a dream that as a global community we can grow past our fear enough to keep asking the most important question: How can we most fully live and act from love, wisdom, and care?

In the face of the pandemic, it is not surprising that fear gets the upper hand at times. Now, with the vaccine, you might feel pushed by fear to take a side and dig in at the cost of staying connected with your heart. You might notice families and friends arguing over whether to get the vaccine or not. You hear yourself site research and hear others site statistics. There’s so much information to consider. Behind all these details is what really matters most; love, care, equity, inclusion, connection, and community. The spiritual question the pandemic asks us is, “How will you care for each other? How will you move past me and mine and expand into a greater sense of family?”

Fear is contraction. It narrows your vision. It keeps you stuck in your biases. It has you imagine that survival is all that matters. It pushes you to wrap your attention around the leading cause of suffering: attachment to a view...

When people ask me, “What is Nonviolent Communication (NVC)?” I have different ways of replying. At different times, I’ll describe as:

We Don’t Need to Fix Other People
When empathizing with someone, we listen for their feelings and needs and don’t try to fix their problem for them.
