Distrust, divisiveness, and conflict run rampant in today's world. Human relations are strained, communication gaps and breakdowns pervade. Yet whether within couples, families, friendships, workplaces, communities, or institutions across our nation and planet, defending our own positions and attacking those of the "Other" has not solved our problems. Maybe it's time to explore how to communicate together in ways that bring connection and healing. In our stressful era the practice of person-centered dialogue offers both hope and help.
