Schwellenzeiten - Wandelzeiten

This guide navigates through the crises and transformative times of one's life, offering support and stability during challenging periods. It illustrates how transitional phases typically unfold, the pitfalls that may arise, and what one can do to consciously shape their own transformation. Rituals, exercises, time spent in nature, threshold walks, meditations, and reflections accompany readers, helping them to remain or become action-oriented and to emerge strengthened from these transitional times.

When the journey from powerlessness to agency is successful, crises and changes in life can become the starting point for one's heartfelt path, as they clearly reveal personal needs, priorities, values, and desires. The trivial falls away – we return to the core of our lives and recognize what is essential for us. This is the gift we can take away from a transitional period.

The book is aimed at individuals who do not want to feel helpless in the face of crises and transformative times in their lives, but rather wish to actively shape them. It is the first practical book on this topic. It is written in a hands-on, empathetic, and authentic manner. The exercises, rituals, time in nature, meditations, and reflections are immediately applicable and can be used for any crisis in life – whether it be separation, death, job loss, illness, or farewell to a life phase.

With the help of the exercises and prompts, readers can independently navigate through their personal transitional period and understand the potential pitfalls, questions, and challenges they may encounter, as well as what the next step is. This provides them with a guide that helps them recognize what may come their way in life and what is essential and supportive. Thus, courage and trust are fostered, along with the competence to prepare more easily for future challenges through experiential knowledge.
