The feelings compass

All tools

What: A feelings wheel that helps you put words to how you feel – and the need behind the feeling.

Why: We often get stuck at ”angry” or ”sad”. Finding the more precise word, and the need underneath, makes it easier to express yourself clearly and be understood – a core idea in NVC.

How: Tap a core feeling, choose a more precise one, and read which need often lies behind it.

Tap a feeling to explore deeper – and see the need behind it.

Your chosen feeling and a possible need behind it will appear here.
