Giving children hope and warmth creates a trusting foundation for the future

It doesn't take much to cause happiness:
Today, under guidance, the youngest shelter seekers from Ukraine made flying balls out of bundles of cloth with colorful crepe ribbons. Afterwards, they tried them out during the song "Rainbow Dances" with very individual, imaginative movement frequencies. Some children played and romped with a large air-rubber ball - painted or explored various game donations. A lot of creativity, a natural joy of expression and liveliness colorfully characterized this afternoon.

There are so many things that make life happy, but one of the best is bringing joy to children

Live To Love Care for mothers, fathers and children seeking protection.

30 families with their children came to Hamburg Eilbek today to share encounters in the name of respect and love. Nina from Initiative Nordherz drew our attention to the fact that with today's action we have already been regularly active in the rooms in Eilbek for one year - wow - time has passed so quickly! The war in Ukraine broke out exactly one year and four months ago. After initially initiating acute crisis assistance, we moved on to regular visits for those seeking protection.

Great day of action with the soul mates

The balance of give and take leads to joy and happiness in all relationships!
Not only in interpersonal relationships it matters, but also in the relationship with the earth, the plants and the animals. The love that animals are able to give us is indescribably precious - sometimes quite clearly, then again characterized by a deeply moving tenderness. We need do nothing more than engage with them, observe them, be attentive, and a relationship can develop that goes beyond mere affection to love.

The reunion with Line and her charges at the horse sanctuary Seelengefährten e. V. was already familiar.

Their vision is to provide concrete support for existing projects with an idea or an action, to establish encounters at eye level, to enable new perspectives - and, of course, above all: to whet people's appetites for more involvement!

Happy World Bee Day

Fan out for wild bees and other insects! Today on World Bee Day, when the UN calls for protection for bees, we energized the existing Live To Love flower meadows for insects. We planted additional wildflowers in the ground that are popular with bees: mealy sage, grass carnation, goldenseal, and catnip.
Even though it is only a few inches tall, the bee is one of the world's third most important "life keepers." About 80 percent of all plants - including fruits and vegetables - depend on pollination by bees. It not only ensures the diversity of the plant world, but also contributes significantly to the nutrition of humans and animals.

Sharing is the new having

The secret of happiness lies not in possessing, but in giving. Those who make others happy become happy.

Live To Love-Care for shelter seekers from Ukraine - because sharing is the new having.
First of all, it is very important for us to express our indescribable gratitude to all supporters from 7 to 86 years old! Your generous and beautiful donations in kind, your handicrafts and homemade food have led to so much joy and gratitude.

"Earth Day": Planting trees in Hamburg´s Klövensteen

Think globally and act locally - the basic idea of UN Mother Earth Day.

Today, Earth Day awareness was raised in over 175 countries. The natural dependencies of all living beings on the earth are increasingly coming to the fore. We take extremely much more than we give!That is why there was a motivation to join forces in a variety of actions: "Invest in Our Planet".

Today the Live To Love - Wedding Forest was planted with many fruit and nut trees on a meadow in the village center of Schwiederstorf.

After many months of detailed planning, today was finally the day.

Creating moments when life is playfully simple.

In the psychology of the West, work with the "inner child" is popular. Surprisingly, this method is most often applied with the regressive view of the past and the sufferings and shortcomings of one's childhood experiences. Children's own resilience, creativity, spontaneity, wonder and interest with which we as children also encountered life, is rarely taken into account.

Colors, shapes and movement strengthen vitality and make you happy!

In der Entwicklungspsychologie ist mit dem Begriff Resilienz die Fähigkeit gemeint, trotz schwieriger Einflüsse und Umstände die eigene seelische und körperliche Gesundheit aufrechtzuerhalten. Bewegung und Kreativität können einen starken und heilsamen Einfluss auf uns Menschen ausüben und Kinder sind gewöhnlich sehr leicht erreichbar, denn sie lieben es, sich durch Farben, Formen und Bewegung auszudrücken. Mit unserer Live To Love Care-Initiative „Help Ukraine“ haben wir deshalb für die Kinder einen Tanz in den Frühling mit bunten Tüchern angeboten.

Being human - sharing warmth, food and relief goods

Living on the street means much more than being homeless and not having a bed, but also having to do without all the comforts that most of us take totally for granted. Homeless people often have no perspective anymore. Family members and friends have turned away, which is very painful and leads to loss of self-confidence. Some of the homeless people we met today in downtown Hamburg have suddenly lost their "old life".

"Children are guests who ask for directions.”

Maria Montessori

At our last Live To Love - event for the women, children and families from Ukraine who have found refuge in Hamburg, our invitation to move to music was accepted with great joy. The result was remarkable and again not... because the universal language of music builds bridges and lifts far more than cultural language barriers. In combination with singing and movement, life forces come into flow, "frozen" feelings can be released - and this can lead to healing on many levels. So today, in addition to various opportunities for handicrafts and painting, we again offered the children music and dance. Fortunately, this also inspired many mothers and fathers to join in.
