From Conflict to Connection (Nonviolent Communication for Saying What You Feel (Not What You'll Regret))

Stuck in a cycle of miscommunication, hurt feelings, and unresolved conflict? This easy-to-use handbook empowers you to approach conflicts both big and small with authenticity, clarity, and compassion using the principles of Nonviolent Communication.

Conflict is a natural and inevitable part of life, whether you are setting a boundary with a friend, confronting a roommate about dirty dishes, or having a serious disagreement with a partner, coworker, or family member. With the right tools, you can use conflict as an opportunity to authentically express your needs, listen deeply, and even strengthen your relationships.

A simple 4-step process can help guide these conversations:

STEP 1: Bring attention to the issue using only observable facts.

STEP 2: Express how you authentically feel.

STEP 3: Express why you feel the way you do.

STEP 4: Make a specific request.

In this book, Nonviolent Communication coach Micah Salaberrios shows you how to communicate clearly and productively with straightforward instructions and everyday tools you can start using right away. You will learn how to:

• Acknowledge, accept, and honor your emotions 

• Express your feelings in a neutral and authentic way—even the most uncomfortable ones 

• Communicate with facts, feelings, needs, and requests, rather than evaluations, judgments, criticisms, analysis, advice, or accusations 

• Use “emergency empathy” in times of great distress 

• Deal with frustration when it seems like nothing is working (and the go-to phrases that work when all else fails) 

• And more

Full of relatable examples, sample dialogues, and useful techniques, From Conflict to Connection will empower you to handle difficult conversations with confidence.
