Blog#5 Dec 2012 Gratitude

Don't get sucked into consumerism this year, give the gift of gratitude instead. Not a thin 'thanks', but a full explanation of why you are so grateful.
When you...
I feel....
Because it meets my need for....
eg, thanks for baby sitting (Karen Young). It's so relaxing, and means I get to go and recharge, and do some of my own learning at the relate course.
There you go...you were wondering what to write in those Christmas cards weren't ya?!

Helping a person to express their feeling aside from their evaluation will help you discover their unmet need. Only from here can we intelligently re-write strategies.
This is a just a teaser from Nonviolent Communication. Interesting concept here... It shows that many of the words that we would think were feelings are actually evaluations. If we pay attention to our true feelings we might find something quite different! Use the search function on the website to find 'NVC' and you will see a few new articles I have just put up.

Well, this will just be a short one as I am really hungry for my lunch but really want to make sure I get this done!
I am speaking this Sunday at Whangaparaoa Baptist Church at the 6pm aXis service. I have titled it - how to get what you want. This really is bit of a typical marketing con-job to invite people to start to think about their needs. Over the last 12 months, after being inspired by Christopher Defibaugh, I have been inspired to look deeper into
Marshall Rosenberg's's work and I have been so impacted by this that I have very quickly integrated it into my life and practice.
This Marshall guy speaks a lot about our needs and how they are our driving force. This resonates with many other authors that I have found to be on the money when it comes to understanding people. Come along if you want to hear more. I will probably write more about this later also. Google Marshall Rosenberg and peacekeeping. He is an interesting fellow!
I have put a few pictures up on facebook if you want to have a squiz.

I just wanted to see if this is going to appear at the top, otherwise this won't work. It has to be easy to read and follow...

I plan on starting a blog. It may just be a narsasistic streak in me that enjoys feeling heard and is under some illusion that people out there look at my website, or...hopefully, somebody reads this and finds it helpful. I plan on sharing my developing thoughts about counselling, life, philosophy, and who knows what else.
It will likely be short, perhaps slightly funny, and to the point, because that tends to be me. Stay tuned.
