Introduction

Non violent communication can contribute to our attempts to bring about change. We want people to change not because of fear that we're going to punish them if they don't, or guilt them if they do. The other day, i was doing a training with some people, and we were seeing how non violent communication can be used within ourselves to learn from our limitations without losing self respect. Think of a mistake you made recently, something you did that you wished you hadn't done. Then think of, how do you educate yourself when you have done something that you wishedyou hadn't done? That is, htdid you tell yourself at the moment that you saw what you had done?
