Summary: VIEW is a communication methodology that focuses on vulnerability, impartiality, empathy, and wonder. It emphasizes understanding others and ourselves in any situation, even conflict, to bring joy and connection. The state of mind is crucial in practicing VIEW, as techniques alone are not sufficient.
