We‘re losing children…
to a meaningless and stressful public education
to gaming
to social media
to other addictive options
to violence and self-abuse.

BUT
we can change that.
Together.

Day 4
The benefits of creating a ‚SAFE SPACE‘

Hearing so many dreams was heart warming and touching for all of us -
so much, that the teachers gave us the whole lesson instead of 15 minutes that I’ve arranged with them before.

🟠 When we create a SAFE SPACE, we have the courage to open up and share our vulnerable Self + dreams (or feelings, desires, opinions).

Before I’ve opened the sharing round, we agreed as a group to the following:
WE speak + share from the HEART
WE listen from our HEARTS
WE don’t judge (we are respectful wit each other)
We don’t put others down, f.eg. with reactions like: „No, this is not possible…“
We are grateful if someone wants to share the dream (idea) with us, because it is something that is important for them
I went 1st (which is an important step when you lead a group!) + shared my heartfelt dream. I was vulnerable + emotional 1st!

🟠 You can use these AGREEMENTS to create a safe space in your family, with your friends + at work.
And remember to go 1st.

After we did the agreements something astonishing happened:
+ During this lesson not a single child was bored or absent.
+ They shared their dreams and also stories from their hearts + with passion.
+ Our eyes were glowing, our voices strong and touching everyone in the classroom.
+ Not a single student needed to be reminded of the agreements.
+ There were no mean words, rejection, bullying or anything like that.
+ We listened deeply, carefully.
+ It created a deep connection with each other (and also with ourselves).
+ We felt safe, seen, heard, loved and important (ALL CORE NEEDS of a human being were fulfilled).
+ We felt nurtured + more calm and joyful.

And the students didn’t want to stop 🙂

More important things happened in that short period of time. More tomorrow.

PS:
Will you try to create a ‚safe space‘ + if yes, when and with whom? Let me know here or send me a DM ✉️
That would be awesome!

Day 3
It takes courage to share your dream.

(check the last 2 days to know how this conversation started)

„I want to redistribute all the money around the world.“

- Wow! That was a dream I didn’t expect to hear.
After that other students shared their dreams -

„I want to stop the destruction of the Amazonas and forests in general.“
„I want to be the 2nd Greta Thunberg and encourage people to protect the earth more.“
„I want to become an inventor and create more nature reserves and water resources in the world.“

Some children dream to gift houses to homeless people.
Some children dream to be a Pro in Sports, so that they can help people living in Slums and poverty, or help that we all have clean water.
Some children „want to become a singer and donate money to fund schools and help poor people.“
Others dream „to protect animals from harm and cruelty, or to open a hospital for animals.“

„I want to end the separation of baby cows from their mothers“ said a boy.
„My dream is to help children that were abandoned from their parents.“ said another boy.
He added that this happened with a cousin in his family. - The whole class felt so touched. -

One girl shared „I want to become a singer and write songs that encourage people to believe in their dreams.“
And another girl: „My dream is to help to stop all the wars on earth and that we live in peace.“
„I want to help women, and also people with other skin colors who experience racism“ shared a boy.

Some children dream „to stop all wars, slavery and all weapon companies.“
And one boy said: „I dream that I can help that all human beings have the same rights and are equally treated.“

Wow!

The students were mostly 9 or 10 years old.
Did you expect that after reading their dreams? Let me know in the comments.

More tomorrow.

When you read yesterday’s message, you know that the discussion around dreams started.

Read only if you want to feel better:-)

Day 2

When you read yesterday’s message, you know that the discussion around dreams started last week.

When we met for the last time, I asked the students if I can ask them one question.
They immediately screamed „Yes!“.

So I asked: „Do YOU have a dream?“

And I also said: „Please feel free to share it or not to share it. A dream is something very unique and it feels personal. Like when you share a secret with a friend. It can feel intimidating to share it with the whole class. And we want to respect that. Also we don’t want to make fun of it. It is something very precious. Alright?“
They all nodded their heads and looked excited at me.

After that the „space“ in the classroom changed.
There was trust and an openness that allowed us all to connect deeply.

I was surprised how many children had dreams and also wanted to share them with all of us.
Do you guess what kind of dreams they’ve had?
Will tell you more tomorrow. I promise.

„Das Leben wird dunkler, wenn wir keinen Traum haben, dem wir folgen (können).“

So genial.
Diese Antwort von SchülerInnen letzte Woche auf meine Frage: „Was denkt ihr, was passiert mit uns Menschen, wenn wir keinen Traum (kein Ziel) im Leben haben!“
⬇️

Wie siehst du das?

Day 1
„Life gets darker when we don’t have a dream to follow.“

This was the answer that I received from a few children after I’ve asked them: “What do you think will happen when we don’t have a dream to follow?”

Isn’t that amazingly accurate?
My life definitely got darker, including my body and mind, before I received and also followed my dream.

We were discussing this last week because I left my school job as a counselor so that I can pursue my dream.
When I said goodbye to the children in the classes, they all wanted to know WHY I’m leaving.

As soon as I told them about my dream of changing the school system and setting up my own school, the children were hooked.
And the discussion around dreams started.

I’ll tell you more about that tomorrow.
I promise.

Ich hab die letzten Tage mit meinen coolen Coachees laut gebrüllt wie ein Drache 🐲 Die Energie kommt also auch ganz deutlich in den Coachings durch.

Dein Feuer, deine Power will dieses Jahr gelebt werden. Tschüß zurückhalten & dich klein machen!

Nach der gestrigen Neumondin, die kräftig Emotionen aufwühlt & zur Heilung und Neuausrichtung aufruft ~ startet heute das Jahr des Drachens! Wohooo!

Vielleicht merkst du es auch, dass es dich in eine neue Richtung schubst, dich die Veränderung ruft ~ und du spürst, das Ziehen in dir in die Richtung deiner Herzens*Träume & Herzens*Wünsche.

Lass es zu.
Nütze die Energien.

Die Energien des Drachens helfen dir umzusetzen, Neues auszuprobieren, in Aktion zu gehen & zu handeln (nicht abzuwarten!) ~ kleine & große mutige Schritte FÜR dich (und deine Kinder) zu gehen.

Heißer Erfolgstipp:
erlaube dir & deiner Familie aus deiner gewohnten Situation = Komfortzone herauszugehen.
Auch wenn’s dir erst mal Angst macht.
Das ist normal.
Das ist ein gutes Zeichen, dass es GENAU da durch geht & dahinter der Schatz auf dich wartet.👌

Ich schenke dir Mut!
Du kannst das!
Wir können das!

Happy kraftvollen 🐉 Start für uns alle ins Neue!

My form of Selfcare in pictures.

What you don’t see but what was included is: breathing deeply.. laying on the couch.. holding myself.. feeling the emotions.. being kind to myself.

Today is:
Healing New Moon 🌚
Maybe you are aware too: there are several strong emotions and energies coming up that may surprise you…

We are still in a society that puts functioning and thinking - over being (joyful) and feeling.

I experienced lots of Traumas in my life & when I learned and gave myself the permission to feel the actual emotions = it was and still is way more helpful then analyzing or judging it by thinking.

I discovered: when I go into judging my feelings -> I end up judging myself and also others. That creates problems or conflicts. Don’t need that anymore, ha?!

So, allow yourself to take care about YOURSELF and feel the EMOTIONS in your body. They will change. Promise 🙂

Feeling it is enough.
Selfcare wins Baby!
