EI tools: Non Violent Communication (NVC) and SCARF framework NVC I deemed the quote by Rumi — a 13th century Persian poet among other things — to be hitting the nail right on the head when it comes to describing what NVC is all about: “Out beyond the ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I will meet you there”, he says. All too often we, as human beings, simply jump to conclusions for not knowing the true background. It is natural to judge but incorporating empathy can lead to better understanding, relationships, and overall outcomes; so we might as well make an effort to learn how to set preconceived judgments to the side and instead employ the 4 step process of NVC: “Observation, Feeling, Need, and Request” (p. 3). 1) Neutral observation is close to impossible, but let us own up, appreciate this inability of ours and go into the conversation by introducing our perceptions (e.g. “According to me …” or “I observed …”). While the observation itself may not match reality completely, it is true that it is what you personally have observed. …show more content…

In reality is how we feel is entirely in our hands. Just after we observe what others do and just before we feel some emotion about it, we tell ourselves a story. We add a motive to what we just observed, then we add a judgement for that motive - is that good or bad, and finally based on these thoughts our body responds with an emotion. This is our path to

No one is capable of choosing their emotions; they come as a result of human nature. This can be seen in our behavior throughout life, from the way babies cry when they miss their parents to the reckless actions of teenagers when they feel the urge to rebel.

The ability to feel emotion is an aspect of humanity that transcends generations.

However, when the areas of knowledge includes the subjectivity as a method of acquiring knowledge, i.e. in many parts of Human Sciences and Religions, the way of knowing therefore requires subjective perception, either instinctive, emotional or spiritual, and thus should still be open for discussion either to support or negate a claim. In my view, the absence of evidence in one claim does not justify the dismissal without evidence when it concerns with the areas of Human Sciences and

Another advantage to been an observer was that I aware of the physical environment, I could observe in detail my surrounding and take mental images and notes in my head of true nature of the hoarding environment. I was also acutely aware not to express any oppressive, discriminatory non-verbal cues (shock at what I observed; feeling like I wanted to cover my mouth and nose to elevate my nausea) and aware of my internal dialogue (nobody should live like this; placing my own judgments and personal values). Reflections involved the careful assessment of my own values and whether this biased my observations.
