Sometimes we keep thinking about the same situation, emotion, or life question — but cannot fully see it from the outside. As part of my studies in Systemic Counseling (“Systemische Beratung”), I would like to create a small, professionally inspired reflective space for thoughtful and respectful conversations. In this reflection circle, one person at a time can share something that is currently on their mind, while the others listen carefully and later reflect on what they noticed, felt, or understood from their own perspective. The goal is not to give quick advice or “fix” problems. The goal is to discover new perspectives through attentive listening and structured reflection. ✨ No experience is needed. The format will be guided step by step in a calm and supportive atmosphere. 🌿 How it works 1️⃣ (10 min) Warm-up & casual conversation 2️⃣ (05 min) One person shares a personal situation or question while the others listen without interrupting Possible starting points: • A situation I keep thinking about • Something emotionally confusing • A transition phase in my life • A question I cannot fully answer yet • A pattern I notice in relationships/work 3️⃣ (05 min) The sharing person remains silent for a moment while the others gently reflect together. The focus is not on fixing or giving advice, but on sharing: • What touched me • What I noticed • What image or metaphor came to mind • What dynamic I sensed • What contradiction I observed • What emotion I felt while listening Participants speak with each other — not directly to the sharing person. This often creates the feeling of being thoughtfully and respectfully witnessed by a group. 4️⃣ (05 min) The sharing person responds: • What resonated • What surprised them • What felt meaningful 🌿 Communication Style • We listen without interrupting • We avoid immediately fixing or advising • Different perspectives are welcome • Everyone shares only what feels comfortable • Quiet listening is also completely okay 📌 Practical Details 📍 Le Quai Steffen – Gare de Luxembourg 📅 Sunday, May 31, 2026 ⏰ 15:00 – 17:00 👥 Small group: max. 7 participants 💶 Participation contribution: 8€ (to keep the group small and intentional) ☕ Food & drinks paid individually Looking forward to creating a warm, reflective, and professionally held space together. ✨

**Attention:** * Preliminary time and information, please check for updates. * There will be several groups starting at different times with different distances. * Please check out the event of your favorite time and distance, and stay in contact with your favorite leader. Hello Friends! This weekend, the traditional "Marche de l'Armée" will take place in Diekirch. Also known as the "Marche Internationale de Diekirch" or "March Militaire" or "Will I ever be able to walk on these feet again", it was initially an event organized by the Luxembourg Military, with participating groups from the French, Belgian, and German armies. At some point, private citizens joined, and it became an event officially open to the public. That's what the legend says, and we will probably not know much more, because even the "history of the walk" page on the official website only elaborates endlessly on the life of "John the Blind, count of Luxembourg", who was chosen for the emblem and logo of this event, but nothing else than that it took place for the first time in 1968 :) Whoever knows more about the history of this event may comment in the comments or talk during the walk. We're going to start at the official starting point at the "Cultural complex Al Seeërei“ close
to the train station. There will be no trains this weekend, and there are not many replacement buses that go directly from somewhere. One of them is L10 from Limpertsberg, going directly, but stopping "everywhere". If you don't mind arriving early and sneaking around a bit, I recommend arriving a bit earlier and not at the last moment, to avoid losing time finding your group. **Meeting Point:** We will meet at the Centre Culturel "Al Seeërei“. https://maps.app.goo.gl/JMt9BcxYmFcxZQ4B7 Individual and more detailed meeting points may be announced by the leaders in the last moment **Registration:** If you want to support the organization of the overall event, need a stamp in your FLMP or IVV booklet, if you want to get a medal in case you finish in the top ranks, or a printed certificate (on demand), you need to register online and pay a fee of 25 EUR. [Tickets on official website](https://www.marche.lu/) If you only come for the walk, don't want to enjoy the party or the band line-up, you may of course also join without a ticket, but be ready to be frowned upon (not by me, of course) **Public Transport:** * Bus L10, departure 9:10, 10:10, from Limpertsberg, bus stop "Batiment P. Eyschen" (goes until Diekirch but stops everywhere). This is around the corner from the "Theatre" bus stop, please check out the Google Maps link: https://maps.app.goo.gl/btiZ6Wwp3yZ2Z45S9 * Bus L11, departure every 30 minutes from "Gare Rocade", stops only in Mersch, but ends in Ettelbrück. You need to take another bus to Diekirch, which might go more often, possibly an additional "Navette" * There are multiple other combinations of buses to Diekirch, from Kirchberg and change in Echternach, or from Badanstalt and change in Junglinster There is no "perfect timing" this time, like "we go right after the bus arrives" (and after Beatrice finally shows up). Anticipate some waiting time due to early arrival rather than waiting for someone. **Car Pool:** If you come by car, you might offer a seat to a friendly co-hiker. According to the expected parking "situation", please plan your arrival at least 30 minutes before the intended start https://groupcarpool.com/t/qwaf3t Passengers, please get into the cars of your favorite driver or place of departure, or on the waiting list if there's no free seat at the moment. Don't forget to remove yourself from the waiting list when you find a seat in a car! Disclaimer: The hike is at your own risk, and please make sure to wear proper shoes and bring some water for yourself! Looking forward to hiking with you! Jens.
