Drawing from Buddhist and yogic precepts, this practical guide offers tools for becoming a better, more compassionate communicator at home, at work, and in the world<\/strong>
\u00a0
Have you ever tried to tell someone what you want only to feel misunderstood and frustrated? Or hesitated to ask for what you needed because you didn’t want to burden the other person? Or been stuck in blame or anger that wouldn’t go away?

Judith and Ike Lasater, long-term students of yoga and Buddhism, experienced dilemmas like these, too. Even though they had studied the yoga principle of\u00a0satya\u00a0<\/em>(truth) and the Buddhist precept of right speech, it was not until they began practicing Marshall Rosenberg’s techniques of Nonviolent Communication (NVC) that they understood how to live\u00a0satya<\/em>\u00a0and right speech.

In\u00a0What We Say Matters<\/em>, Judith and Ike describe their journey through NVC and how speech becomes a spiritual practice based on giving and receiving with compassion\u2014everywhere, all the time\u2014whether at home, at work, or in the world. Their writing is deeply personal, punctuated by their recounts of trial and error, success and failure, laughter and challenge\u2014even in writing this book! They guide you through an introduction to NVC with clear explanations, poignant examples, suggested exercises, and helpful resources. With practice, you’ll learn new ways to:

– Extend empathy to yourself and others
– Distinguish between feelings and needs
– Make requests rather than demands
– Choose connection over conflict
– Create mutually satisfying outcomes<\/p>\n\n\n\n
