Holy Eckert:







As a certified trainer of Nonviolent Communication, I see every day how lives are improved whenever we move from a place of judgment to a place of compassion. Anger changes to curiosity, blame transforms to generosity, and suspicion evolves to trust.















In 1999, I first felt the power of NVC as a way to increase the effectiveness and enjoyment of my parenting. Not only did I find an immediate improvement in my connection with my son, but in all my other relationships as well. Suddenly, I could show sensitivity to others without giving up my own needs. I had tools to deepen intimacy and resolve conflicts peacefully. I found more ease in everyday conversations.















Through NVC, I have learned how to transform judgments of myself and others without giving up my values. This precious skill has helped me to be a better listener, to express myself more clearly, and to connect with the pure intention behind any action.















Most of all, I have come to trust in every person's innate compassion and the unity of our human race.















Whether you'd like to work on your relationship with the human race, or the one with your partner, your co-worker, your child or even your dog, NVC promises new insights and possibilities for understanding, good will, and co-operation.
