My dad died when I was 8. Every week a few of the dads on my hockey team would offer to tie my skates. They filled the gap. Find a way to fill the gap for someone.

If everyone drops one thing they learned in therapy, we can all learn from this thread.

Don't drain yourself trying to be understood by people who insist on not understanding you. Keep your cup full. Go to the kindness.

❓ Wie werden Konflikte angegangen?

❕Im geschützten Raum werden Konflikte sichtbar gemacht und ihre Gründe nachvollzogen. Beschwerden beziehen sich nicht auf Personen, sondern auf konkrete Verhaltensweisen oder Inhalte. Geäußerte Kritik geht mit persönlicher Wertschätzung einher. Durch eine Haltung des Respekts und des Sorgetragens lassen sich Beziehungen verändern, ohne sie zu kappen. Doch Trennungen sind nie ausgeschlossen.

🗿 »Die Frage ist nicht, ob Konflikte bearbeitet werden, sondern wie.«

👉 In Kreisgesprächen des Kooperativenverbundes Cecosesola (Venezuela) werden konkrete Verhaltensweisen offen kritisiert. Das geht oft an die Substanz, doch die Wortwahl bleibt respektvoll. Nach Konfliktsituationen vermittelt z.B. auch eine Umarmung die Botschaft: Ich sehe Dich als Mensch.
👉 Systemisches Coaching, Mediationen und Aufstellungen können einen beziehungswahrenden Umgang mit Konflikten unterstützen.

🗨 Welche Beispiele kennst du?

We should still ask our low maintenance friends if they’re okay!
