Nonviolent Communication: Establish Healthy Relationships, Increase Empathy, Improve Conscious Habits - Paperback

by Amras Annare (Author)

How often do we experience in everyday life how we suddenly feel uncomfortable with a few words spoken or heard? A frequent prove of this situation is when our counterpart does not seem to understand how important something is to us.
Misconceptions weaken our relationships with colleagues, friends, family and partners. We ask somebody and he understands it as a demand. Another time we listen to a friend's suffering stories and do not know how to respond to help him.
The book gives you a comprehensive overview and many small step-by-step instructions to help you avoid misunderstandings in your communication and to stay in an understanding, empathetic relationship. Empathy is the key to understand your own needs and empathise with others' needs.
