Day 4: Communication that blocks compassion, moralistic judgments

Non Violent Communication Podcast

Show Notes

Today is Day 4 of the non violent communication podcast, and we're talking about communication that blocks compassion. Specifically, about moralistic judgments.

This is a point in the book where I always struggle a bit. I'll give you a couple of very specific examples of moralistic judgments that occur to me, and why these can be hugely problematic when used.

Hope you'll listen... and please leave any comments at the blog post
