    Tips

    August 27, 2020

    Lake Elsbach, also known as Pfingstsee, is a wonderful place with impressive natural scenery. The lake is still being formed, as it is a subsidence lake caused by coal mining. The lake can be explored, for example, on the "Landpartie" (Country Trip) region route.

      We feel a special connection to some places. But what does that actually mean? And how does such a relationship differ from one with a person?

      Wheel of Fortune Exercise: Inner Developmental Goals 3 - RELATIONSHIP

      As humans, we are born in need of help. Other living beings are capable of survival from birth; we depend on other people to feed us or protect us from cold and heat. And we organize the world so that it benefits and protects us. The fact that we are social, intelligent, and adaptable beings is our recipe for success.

      Living together is (not) a stroke of luck. Look for examples from your own life where this coexistence works well. And consider how the attitudes and feelings below contribute to this.

      (1) Appreciation

      Approach others and the world with a fundamental sense of appreciation, gratitude, and joy.

      (2) Connectedness

      A strong sense of being connected to or part of a larger whole, such as a community, humanity, or a global ecosystem.

      (3) Humility

      Being able to act in accordance with the needs of the situation without concern for one's own importance.

      (4) Empathy and Compassion

      The ability to treat others, oneself, and nature with kindness, empathy, and compassion, and to cope with the associated suffering.

        The lake was formed by subsidence caused by mining in the region and the rising groundwater level. A paved cycling and hiking path runs through the lake along a man-made dike. This dike features a rest area where you can observe and enjoy nature.
