Lasater, language is a spiritual practice based on giving and receiving with compassion. In \u003ci\u003eWhat We Say Matters,\u003c\/i\u003e they offer new and nurturing ways of communicating. Long-term students of yoga and Buddhism, the authors here blend the yoga principle of \u003ci\u003esatya\u003c\/i\u003e(truth) and the Buddhist precept of right speech with Marshall Rosenberg’s groundbreaking techniques of Nonviolent Communication (NVC) in a fresh formula for promoting peace at home, at work, and in the world. The authors offer practical exercises to help readers in any field learn to diffuse anger; make requests rather than demands or assign blame; understand the difference between feelings and needs; recognize how they strategize to get needs met; choose connection over conflict; and extend empathy to themselves and others.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shambhala","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47033361137904,"sku":"9781930485242","price":14.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781930485242_p0.jpg?v=1763637829","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781930485242","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
