    Ruth Bebermeyer: Words Are Windows (or They’re Walls)

    I feel so sentenced by your words

    I feel so judged and sent away

    Before I go I got to know

    Is that what you mean to say?

    Before I rise to my defense,

    Before I speak in hurt or fear,

    Before I build that wall of words,

    Tell me, did I really hear?

    Words are windows, or they’re walls,

    They sentence us, or set us free.

    When I speak and when I hear,

    Let the love light shine through me.

    There are things I need to say,

    Things that mean so much to me,

    If my words don’t make me clear,

    Will you help me to be free?

    If I seemed to put you down,

    If you felt I didn’t care,

    Try to listen through my words

    To the feelings that we share.

    — Ruth Bebermeyer

    From Marshall B. Rosenberg, Phd: Non-Violent Communication:

    A Language of Life, 3rd edition page 6, published by PuddleDancer Press

    Phillip Britts

    “There is a calling”


    There is a calling in the ears of men –

    A wind that whistles in the city street,

    Calling them back, to long-forgotten ways,

    Blowing the sands of havoc 'round their feet.


    There is a vision in the eyes of men –

    Of fair wide fields, where gleams the honest plough,

    Guided by hands of brotherhood and peace,

    Far other than the hands that guide it now.


    There is a struggle in the hearts of men –

    A groping of the lonely in the fight,

    Urging them on a road but dimly seen,

    Towards faint music and a distant light.


    O may that music swell, that light increase,

    And hearts be strengthened in the inward strife,

    That men may hear, and see, and struggle on,

    Seek a new world, and find a truer life.


    1946

Description

WHAT IS NON-VIOLENT COMMUNICATION?

In short, it's called NVC, this is a communication technique which is aimed at solving challenging interpersonal situations, arguments and other problems while preventing personal conflict.

The power of NVC

Imagine a life where the opposing views always reach consensus, where instead of fierce shouting we pay attention to each other, where the red fog of anger never obscures our vision, and where the common solution is winning our values. This is the world of nonviolent communication, and it is something that anyone can create. In this world you will experience how it feels, to be welcomed to the world of Peace.

Let’s start it together!

Recommended for learners if:

You would like to have standing-ground to recognize the factors that drive conflicts and you want to be able to deal with them in time, from a balanced emotional state. This technique can be used in business, at work and in private life as well, after all, who doesn’t want to live in peace and agreement instead of misunderstandings?

Moreover, it’s also recommended to those who are interested in their everyday relationships, those who want to communicate better, more accurately, more successfully, and who want to recognize the hidden messages of other people’s words, and in the meantime would like to get to know themselves a little better too…

HOW CAN WE LEARN IT?

NVC method consists of four steps. We must go through these steps in our minds first then we have to use them in actual conversations to express ourselves towards others. Through these 4 steps, we can express ourselves, what is inside us.

Testimonies

I liked the course, I saved some part of it for later, to re-read, digest, and take more time with it. Because the course content is rich and deep, well-edited so it's worth it to build it into my everyday life.


Ann S., psychologist, Budapest


I would like to thank the possibility, to have introspection into such a communicational technique that I would say everyone should have known.

It was great along the course that it is practical, there are great videos, and that after each lesson I could try what I’ve read in the lecture, as the theory and practise of NVC. The course makes me wonder, how difficult it is to communicate well in general and in conflict situations too, and how many details I should pay attention in me and in others too. As an educational expert, I think primary students should learn NVC, maybe even preschoolers also.
