Nonviolent communication involves active listening and reflection from "summary" of Nonviolent Communication: A Language of Life by Marshall B. Rosenberg,Deepak Chopra

Nonviolent communication is a process that requires active listening and reflection. When we engage in nonviolent communication, we focus on truly hearing what the other person is saying without judgment or interruption. This means giving our full attention to the speaker, not only listening to their words but also trying to understand the feelings and needs behind those words. Active listening involves being fully present in the moment, setting aside our own thoughts and opinions to truly connect with the speaker. Instead of formulating our response while the other person is speaking, we focus on understanding their perspective and empathizing with their emotions. By actively listening, we create a safe space for the speaker to express themselves honestly and openly. Reflection is another important component of nonviolent communication. After listening to the speaker, we reflect back what we have heard to ensure that we have understood them correctly. This involves paraphrasing the speaker's words and emotions, demonstrating that we are truly engaged in the conversation and care about their experience. Through active listening and reflection, we can foster a deeper connection with others and build mutual understanding. This process allows us to communicate with compassion and empathy, creating a more harmonious and peaceful environment. By practicing nonviolent communication, we can cultivate healthier relationships and resolve conflicts in a more constructive and respectful manner.
