NVC Gem of the Week
Would you like to have a regular little dose of NVC?
Each week I send out a short article that highlights a particular skill or concept in NVC and how to integrate into your daily life.
One reader said this, “I've been meaning to tell you how much I appreciate that you take the time to write these little "gems" every week or so. I always read them and I learn something from the experience. It meets my need for being a better communicator. You're insights feel right on the mark, and as I'll bet you hear often, feel as if you've written them just for me. I'm grateful to you for taking the time to put them together and appreciate your gift of expression.” –David Romanetti, Portland, OR Go to my website to access archives and to sign up www.wiseheartpdx.org
