A need is life seeking expression within us.

Judgments of others contribute to self-fulfilling prophecies.

Getting in touch with unmet needs is important to the healing process.

In NVC, no matter what words others may use to express themselves, we simply listen for their observations, feelings, needs, and requests.

Always hear the 'Yes' in the 'No'.

My need is for safety, fun and to have distribution of resources, a sustainable life on the planet. NVC is a strategy that serves me to meet these needs.

The only time a message (label) can scare us is if we think there is such a thing, and that such a thing is a disgrace.
