Validation is a powerful tool for connection from "summary" of I Hear You by Michael S. Sorensen

Validation is a profound skill that has the power to foster connection in our relationships. When we validate someone, we are essentially communicating that we hear and understand them. This simple act can lead to a deeper bond and a greater sense of trust between individuals. Validation involves acknowledging someone's thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgment. It shows that we are taking the time to truly listen and empathize with the other person. By validating their emotions, we are validating their humanity and affirming their worth. When we validate others, we are sending a message that their feelings are valid and important. This can help them feel seen and heard, which in turn can strengthen the emotional connection between us. When people feel understood and accepted, they are more likely to open up and share their thoughts and feelings with us. Validation can also help defuse conflict and de-escalate tense situations. By acknowledging someone's perspective, we can demonstrate that we are willing to find common ground and work towards a resolution. This can lead to more effective communication and a greater sense of unity in our relationships.

By practicing validation in our interactions, we can create a safe and supportive environment where people feel valued and understood. This, in turn, can lead to more fulfilling and harmonious relationships in our lives.
