About Kolieberation
Kolieberation creates spaces and experiential possibilities to get in touch with your inherent loud and quiet, with your silence and storm, with your anger, ecstasy and boredom. It's a fusion between the German word 'Liebe' aka love and the context of coexistence.

An embodied approach assumes that there is wisdom in embodiment, and that our experiences are embedded in our own corporeality as well as in our environment.

Traumasensibilität ist ein informiert sein, über Trauma und einer Unterstützung diesem zu begnen wenn du möchtest. Traumasensibilität ist kein Ersatz für therapeutische Behandlung.

Feeling
It often looks so neat and harmless when we see people meditating. My experience is that what looks like the easiest thing in the world may be an intense encounter at that moment. With an emotion, a sensation or a thought.
'Full Catastrophe Living' describes the attitude with which mindfulness encounters life: just as it is. So beautiful and so crappy, so simple and so complicated. In the midst of this chaos, we simply practice noticing, feeling and embodying our senses, perceptions and emotions on equal footing with our cognitive processes.
With mindfulness we get to know our nervous system and we do that by sensing and feeling. Linked to this is our ability to consciously experience and process stress. You can learn through mindful self-encounter, to recognize your own physiological states of arousal and, at best, to respond to them preemptively. How exactly you experience mindfulness meditation in application is very personal.
Mindfulness opens us up to being in touch with what is right now. This is not necessarily the attitude we have learned culturally and can be challenging. Many people experience this shift in perspective as very liberating.
Mindfulness is changing at the moment and learning a lot about being (trauma) sensitive. This is also my intention in teaching. Every nervous system deserves attention, no matter what your prior experience is. I believe that we can find ways back into feeling for all systems, and that these look and feel different.
Trauma sensitivity in mindfulness practice will, at its best, lead to mindfulness becoming an inclusive practice. If you are interested in the topic, here is the link to David Treleavan's podcast, a pioneer of this work in mindfulness. In German, I highly recommend Verena König's podcast on Creative Transformation.

About me
My name is Lara, I have been working with meditation, mindfulness and movement for about 10 years and am theoretically interested and practically curious about how we can connect "old" ideas of existence with "new" forms of doing, thinking with and being.
I studied film and then cultural and religious studies.My special interests were sensuality, its prohibition and practice, as well as cultures of love, partnership and sexuality, and their connection to norms, the secular or the "sacred". Always running behind or ahead is the question of ideology.
Since 2022 I am in training to become an MBSR teacher (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction).
Since 2022, I have regularly taught mindfulness to children ages 5-9, as well as adults with a focus on mindfulness, intentional media use, and addiction prevention.
MBSR combines knowledge and wisdom from psychology, yoga and meditation and provides comprehensive mindfulness methods to help us meet our mind, body and nervous system.
