[DeepL:] We meet to talk to each other about our problems, but also about the opportunities we have through our heightened awareness.
The filter in our heads, with which we block out much of what we see, hear, smell, feel and perceive as irrelevant without being aware of it, is less developed in us in some areas. This leads to the fact that we perceive some things more and then also have to process them consciously.
We are open to all who are interested in our topic from their own experience. We do not understand high sensitivity as an objectively measurable state of the nervous system or even as a special form of being human, but as being affected by our topic, as being addressed by our problem circles. Therefore, we do not determine who is to be considered highly sensitive, but leave it up to each individual to feel addressed.
As a self-help group, we are not interested in any research or theory formation, but rather in the exchange among those affected, in authentic and attentive encounters. We do not offer prepared theme evenings, but our themes develop during our meetings from what the participants share about themselves.
We are not a professionally led group, but we meet on an equal footing. Everyone is responsible for themselves as well as for the well-being of the group.
