The Global Healing Project

Terra Nova -  Global Revolution and the Healing of Love  is an inspirational book by Dieter Duhm  that "Describes a vision for a new culture:  an Earth free of war, a society free of violence, a love free of lies and a life free of fear". In 1995, Duhm co-founded the Tamera  Peace Research Center in southwestern Portugal together with Sabine   Lichtenfells  and Rainer Ehrenpreis. In Tamera they created a working model that put years of research into action.  A visit to Tamera with with my family was a major inspiration and influence on me and my own Global Healing work. https://verlag-meiga.org/product/terra-nova-global-revolution-and-the-healing-of-love/ https://www.tamera.org/ more on Tamera and Dieter Duhm to come.......

I was born and raised in Germany under Hitler and rejected by the German government because I was a Jew.  On November 9, 1938 was Kristallnacht .  On this night SA (abbreviation of  Sturmabteilung, German Assault Division)  men came to our door at four in the morning and smashed the front glass entryway.  They claimed they were here for a million marks that we possessed.  My father and I walked into the living room where he had a desk, which contained a cash box.  He gave them all the money contained in the cashbox, which amounted to 100 marks.  No where did we ever have a million marks.  They marched through the whole apartment and then beat up my father in front of me because he was unable to produce this sum of money.  Since it was the beginning of winter one of the SA troopers followed me and said "get dressed warmly, you have to report to the police department".  Instead of reporting to the police department my father and I wen...

 It was shortly after Kristallnacht that news arrived from my Uncle Freddy in Palestine that he was willing to provide the necessary British pounds for me to to join the Kindertransport for Jewish children.  When my parents were informed of my acceptance I learned how to sew in to all my clothing my identification monogram: EK.  We sat on our balcony with needle and thread sewing away every day.  Then came packing the suitcase time.  The most important item was a recipe book with photographs.  This was carefully placed in the bottom of the suitcase and protected by the monogrammed clothing.  I was given instructions by my parents that it must never be shown or given to anybody else.  Little did I know that some of those recipes would become the way we earned our family lively hood.  We became one of three bakeries in New York City to make Lebkuchen, a German specialty particularly made for Christmas.  I became a baker, a delivery boy and...

 I would like to share several healing circumstances which developed during a family trip to Germany.  On this trip my two daughters and granddaughter became acquainted with places I and members of my family lived and most of us were born.  The trip included getting to know these members and in several instances we lived with them in their communities while visiting.   My father's mother and father lived in the grape rich winery of Kitzingen am Main.  In Kitzingen we got to know Mr. Schneeberger who volunteered his services to the once active Synagogue and still existing Jewish community.  He arranged for us not only to live with some members of the Jewish community there but also to assist in the upkeep of the Jewish cemetery.  Rake and shovels in hand we engaged in clearing grave sites including the memorial of my grandfather, Ignatz Klugman.   All this took place six years ago.  Yesterday I received a note that this weekend they ...

  Feelings and Needs A fundamental assumption in Nonviolent Communication is that everything we’ve ever done and everything we will ever do is motivated by universal human needs. And, feelings arise when needs are met or not met. By connecting to the feelings and needs that underlie behavior, we can experience more compassion and understanding with ourselves and with others. - The Happy Wanderers Below please find link to the NVC feelings and needs list complied by the by the New York Center for Nonviolent Communication  https://thehappywanderersclub.com/feelingsandneeds/ https://thehappywanderersclub.com/   https://charterforcompassion.org/the-new-york-center-for-nonviolent-communication-nycnvc
