	practice:
	
	1. Increasing Peace of
	Mind & Self Acceptance
	
	2. The fallout from 
	such a revolution in 
	the world
	
2. CHOICES with every 
	interaction:
	
	1. Compelled to react 
	from our programming
	(how we have been
	trained, taught, and 
	told.)
	
	2. Impelled to act by
	our needs (the Life
	Energy within us)
	
3. MODALITIES of 
	communicating

	Communicating what is
	going on within me
	
	3. Empathy - Attention
	to what is going on in

4. COMPONENTS

	1. Observation (not

	the needs calling out
	for attention)
	
	3. Needs (the Life
	Energy within)
	
	4. Requests (not 
	demands) present time,

5. PRINCIPLES/ASSUMPTIONS

	1. All humans have the
	same needs within them
	and we are all doing 
	the best we can in 
	each moment to try to
	meet our needs.
	
	2. Each person is
	feeling their own
	feelings and trying to
	meet their own needs.
	Our feelings signal 
	whether our needs are
	being attended to or
	not. Other people may
	be the stimulus, but
	are never the cause of
	our feelings.
	
	3. Conflict Occurs in
	the ways we try to
	meet our needs. 
	Conflict never occurs
	at the level of needs.
	
	4. Force is only used
	for protection in the
	case of health or 
	safety, when no other
	option can be found in
	the moment.
	
	5. Guilt, anger, 
	depression, and shame
	are caused by the
	stories we tell
	ourselves.
