We All Have the Same Needs
We all have the same needs, but we choose different strategies to meet them. This central NVC assumption offers a powerful way to understand human behaviour. But is identifying our needs always the most helpful way to change our actions? Explore the possibilities that open up when we complement the NVC perspective with other ways of understanding ourselves.
There Is No Right or Wrong
Moving beyond right and wrong is one of NVC’s most powerful ideas. It can free us from blame and open the door to understanding. But what happens when *There is no right or wrong* becomes a truth we no longer question? This first NVC Paradox explores both the gifts and the blind spots of moving beyond moral judgment.
When Solutions Become Problems
Every paradigm offers solutions to problems that earlier perspectives could not resolve – but every solution also develops limitations of its own. Through education, culture wars and Integral Theory, this post explores the developmental pattern behind NVC Paradoxes and the emerging framework of I-NVC.
Feelings Point to Needs Being Met or Unmet
NVC suggests that feelings point to needs being met or unmet. But are feelings and needs simply waiting inside us to be discovered? Drawing on Lisa Feldman Barrett’s work on constructed emotions, I explore how culture and learned concepts may shape not only the feelings we recognise, but perhaps also the needs we experience.
NVC Paradoxes
NVC has transformed how I understand people, conflict and human needs. But can one perspective also limit what we see? NVC Paradoxes explores the assumptions, contradictions and blind spots found in NVC theory and culture through an Integral NVC lens.
Human Beings Enjoy Giving, When It Is Their Own Choice to Give
