feeling-seen - by Michael Bachg

Basic assumptions

feeling-seen is based on the positive assumption that in the course of their long evolutionary developmental process, human beings have gained genetic knowledge about how a successful life is possible and how to achieve this.

We have been equipped with a sense of hope, we expect joy, and it seems as if the knowledge about how life is supposed to be was pas- sed on from one generation to the next.

The neurobiologist Gerald Huether, widely noted in the educational and cultural field, has demonstrated with regard to cerebral develop- ment and the significance of psychosocial factors, that a child's brain needs as many challenges as possible in order to develop – but children must not fail due to these problems and therefore need emo- tional security through bonding with their parents.

feeling-seen aims to enhance relationship skills in children, to strengthen their attachment towards others and towards themselves.
