I am a writer, peace and environmental activist from Japan, living in Hawaii after 3.11 earthquake. Bay NVC has changed the way I speak, write and act, and as a result, I am more effective and peaceful (and healthy, too). If I have not known Bay NVC, I would have burned out in despair, or would have been too angry about so many things in the world to do anything positive. So, I am very grateful I have learned NVC through the Leadership Program they offer. If you want to be more effective in anything you do, I would strongly recommend to get involved with Bay NVC and learn Non Violent Communication from wonderful instructors of Bay NVC.
