Empathy: Emptying our mind and listening with our whole being

Never do anything that isn't play.

We want people to change because they see better ways of meeting their needs at less cost, not because of fear that we're going to punish them, or 'guilt' them if they don't. This applies to ourselves as well.

As we learn to speak from the heart we are changing the habits of a lifetime.

Most of us grew up speaking a language that encourages us to label, compare, demand, and pronounce judgments rather than to be aware of what we are feeling and needing.

You'll find people less threatening if you hear what they're needing rather than what they're thinking about you.

All human actions are an attempt to meet needs.
