Buch: Befreiung von Schuld & Scham - Lebenskraft, bessere Freundschaften, Glück
**Die Prägungen unserer Kindheit stehen manchmal einem glüklichen Leben im Weg - auch bei Freundschaften.**
**Dieses Buch geht diesen Prägungen & dysfunktionalen Glaubenssätzen auf den Grund.**
+++++++++++++++
**🏡 Wir treffen uns im Monbijou-Park mit Picknick-Decke**
**💶 Teilnahmegebühr: 5 EUR**

+++++++++++++++
**🌳 Über das Meetup**
Dieses Meetup ist eine gemeinsame Besprechung des Buches "Befreiung von Scham & Schuld".
Wir unterhalten uns darüber, was wir in dem Buch gelesen haben - und welche Bedeutung es für unser Leben hat.
**Um an dem Treffen teilzunehmen, solltest Du mindestens bis Seite 106 gelesen haben.**
Einige der 8 Fallbeispiele am Anfang kannst Du für das erste Treffen überspringen, lies jedoch mindestens 2 Fallbeispiele, um ein Gefühl zu bekommen. (Das Buch hat 422 Seiten, die sich lohnen).
.
**Das Buch ist leicht & angenehm geschrieben.**
.
+++++++++++++++++
**🌻 Mehr zum Inhalt**
Manchmal funktionieren Freundschaften nicht, weil man
* sich nicht öffnen kann,
* zu schüchtern ist,
* andere Menschen nicht an sich heran lässt
* klammert
* zu viel will
* wegrennt
* nicht die richtigen Menschen trifft
* schlechte Erfahrungen gemacht hat
* oder oder oder ...
.
... alte Themen aus der Kindheit holen einen ein.
.
Ebenso stehen Glaubenssätze wie "ich bin nicht gut genug", "ich bin nicht liebenswert", "Ich bin unfähig", "Ich muss mich beweisen", ... guten Freundschaften im Weg.
.
Das ganze Leben, Partnerschaften und Erfolg im Beruf scheinen von blöden Glaubenssätzen durchsetzt. Bei machen mehr, bei anderen weniger.
.
In dem Buch: **"Befreiung von Scham und Schuld"** von Laurance Heller und Angelika Doerne geht es genau darum:
.
Wie prägen schlechte Kindheitserlebnisse und die Beziehung zu unseren Eltern unsere heutigen Beziehungen.
.
Zur allgemeinen Erleichterung: Nicht nur schlechte Gefühle prägen uns, sondern auch die vielen guten Gefühle 🦋🌞🌻🤗.
.
**Der Stoff ist intensiv. Deshalb gibt es diesen Austausch mit Gleichgesinnten.** Ist das Buch für Dich interessant, d**ann komm gern dazu!**
.
**+++++ 😊 Teilnehmer-Stimmen**
.
"Der Austausch hilft mir, das Buch und mich richtig zu verstehen. Das hat Tiefe. Ich mag die Offenheit."
.
"Jede meiner Empfindungen, Körperreaktionen, Gefühle und Gedanken ist nur davon geprägt, wie ich aufgewachsen bin. Das habe ich mit dem Buch verstanden."
.
.
**+++++🔷 Hintergrund**
**👱🏽♂️ Zu mir: Ich bin Georg Preller.**
Seit 4 Jahren betreibe ich die Seite [www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de](www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de). Ich bin ausgebildeter NLP Lehrtrainer ([DVNLP](https://www.dvnlp.de/)) & Coach.
Ich gebe Workshops über Freundschaft & schreibe ein Buch über Freundschaft.
Mir ist es wichtig, dass Menschen gute & glückliche Freundschaften führen und damit ein friedliches & glückliches Leben führen.
.
Auf meiner Websiete findest Du viele Tipps, wie man gute Freundschaften anbahnt.
.
Zurzeit erforsche ich tiefe Themen der Psychologie. Ich will wissen, wie alte Prägungen uns im Wege stehen, die richtigen Freundschaften zu knüpfen. **Dieses Buch ist Teil dieser Forschung.**
.
**🎯 Andere Workshops**
In der Meetup-Gruppe findest Du noch andere Workshop, zu ähnlichen Themen. Zum Beispiel:
* **Bindungsstile & Bindungstypen** \- wie sie unsere Freundschaften und Beziehungen beeinflussen
* **Authentische Ehrlichkeit:** Endlich über das Reden, über das man sonst schweigt oder lügt.

Fairytale Forest: Hike through the Mystical Landscape of Briesetal
***Discover the mystical sunken birch forest, the valley and its unspoilt nature while hiking along river Briese.***
**HOW DO I JOIN THIS EVENT?**
Click on link below to get complete info and to sign up for this event by getting your ticket.
[https://urbanaturetravel.com/event/briesetal-fairytale-forest-hike](https://urbanaturetravel.com/event/briesetal-fairytale-forest-hike)
**SPECIAL OFFER FOR NEW USERS**
* 10% New User Discount using promo code: **MEETUP10**
* Valid for this trip or any other trips available on our website.
**WHY GO?**
The Briesetal is one of Brandenburgs most scenic valleys, formed by river Briese. The quiet nature preservation area is home to mischievous beavers whose dams created a sunken birch forest. The valley is still dominated by unspoilt nature, seemingly untouched by humans. It's only a 40 minute train ride north of Berlin, making it the perfect day trip getaway from the city's hustling.
Following the meandering river we traverse the mystical forest, walk on wooden planks through moors and marshes and explore natural habitats and endemic wildlife. On this hike, immerse yourself into nature’s wonder! Have you ever observed the tiny details of the outdoors? Such as the intricate veins on the back of a leaf? Or the delicate edges of flowers’ petals? Or the movement of a cheeky squirrel?
On this walk, you will have the chance to truly connect with the natural world around you.
No experience or preparation is needed, just your curiosity. You will be guided through every step of the way.

Smart Search + AI: An Outcome-Driven Journey from IDP to a Suite of AI
Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans.
We created Smart Search, the world’s largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping what’s possible. Since then, we’ve built a suite of AI‑driven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomes—accelerating benefits decisions for our Nation’s Veterans.
Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcome‑driven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served.
This is a follow up to the AWS re:Invent 2023 "Intelligent Document Processing with Gen AI for Public Sector" presentation.

Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code - Alan Barber
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
*Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code*
Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs.
In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling.
The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options.
