Dear Reader,

After exploring the SVB/NVB distinction you agree with me that SVB sets you free, but that NVB imprisons you and forces you to be what you are not and don’t want to be. I introduce you to this distinction with these words and I stimulate you to verify if what I say is true. 

In SVB we learn without any struggle or effort and we realize that struggle and effort is always part of NVB. Stated differently, being scientific about our spoken communication requires us to be peaceful and at ease. Stress, anxiety, anger, fear and frustration prevent us from being scientific about our communication and perpetuate the pre-scientific notion that inside of us there is a behavior-controlling self.

If science is the way to free ourselves from problems and negative emotions then we want that science. Mankind’s general lack of interest in and disdain for science is because it hasn’t really helped us with our emotional turmoil. SVB delivers us from all our troubles and it allows us to make sense out of the many difficulties that we have experienced. 

As we find our real voice, we notice we are happy. We feel happy, but don’t try to be happy; we are relaxed, but we don’t try to relax; we feel peaceful, but we don’t try to be peaceful. We were always trying in vain to be this and that as we remained involved in and conditioned by NVB. 

SVB never confronts NVB as the two are incompatible. SVB and NVB only make sense to the extent that we are able to acknowledge both; NVB is part of our phylogenetic conditioning,  that is, we are born with it, but SVB is determined ontogenetically and culturally. In other words, SVB is a learned behavior. Different cultures and different countries have different rates of SVB and NVB. Due to the existing environmental circumstances SVB was able to begin in the Netherlands.
