Becoming What You Need: Practices for Embodying Nonviolent Communication – David Weinstock
Loving the life you lead begins with knowing deeply what you care about. This is where embodying Nonviolent Communication practices begin to produce lasting change over the long term. To live more fully in relationships, we must live more fully in our own bodies. Coming home to our bodies puts us in touch with our emotions, and our emotions — when consciously listened to — tell us what we care about, what we need, and the present, direct, immediate experience of the life we are living. This is where we come face to face with the history we’ve embodied, our deeper selves, our greatest gifts, and the motivation to stay on the course of developing new, more skillful, inclusive responses to life’s challenges.
