Where do these words come from?
Inspired by Hoffman Institute’s Feelings & Sensations practice and adapted from the Center for Nonviolent Communication’s feelings and needs inventory (© 2023 CNVC). This is an independently designed, selected vocabulary, not a reproduction of either worksheet.
Reflections are simple templates built from your choices, not AI interpretations. Feelings do not establish one specific need. The lists are starting points, not exhaustive categories or a diagnostic tool.
