In empathy, you don't speak at all. You speak with the eyes. You speak with your body. If you say any words at all, it's because you are not sure you are with the person. So you may say some words. But the words are not empathy. Empathy is when the other person feels the connection with what's alive in you.

NVC helps us connect with each other and ourselves in a way that allows our natural compassion to flourish.

A respectful understanding of another's experience.
