We continue our exploration of the Power of Understanding with a focus on "understanding others" this Sunday. We will revisit the concepts and process of NVC (non-violent communication) to assist us in our desire to understand even those who frustrate or, or just baffle us. As the founder of NVC, Marshall Rosenberg, reminded us - behind every action, even the ones we find frustrating or hurtful, is a human being trying to meet a need. Knowing that to be seen, valued and fully heard is what we all crave, we will learn how to be fully present with someone, bringing our "whole self" into the moment. When we practice understanding we don't just change our conversations, we become instruments of peace.
