Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love. ~ Lao-Tzu
 

Staying in a Difficult Dialogue: Compassionate Communications

Keeping a conversation going is a learned skill, particularly when the conversation is emotionally charged and tough situations demand solutions.

Using a compilation of strategies, including the non-violent communication ideas of Marshall Rosenberg, I co-create opportunities to learn and practice processes that deepen the connection to self and others.  The likelihood is increased that we will value ourselves, hear the underlying needs of others and create beneficial outcomes.
