In a world filled with conflict and division, it's more important than ever to learn how to communicate in a way that builds connection, empathy, and understanding. Taking the War Out of Our Words is a practical guide to nonviolent communication (NVC),a powerful tool that can help us to resolve conflicts peacefully, build stronger relationships, and create a more just and compassionate world.

NVC is based on the idea that all human beings have the same basic needs, and that when our needs are not met, we experience pain. When we communicate from a place of pain, we often use language that is violent or blaming. This can lead to further conflict and division.
