An afternoon that changes heart and attitude
At the Free Columbarium Rheinkirche in Duisburg-Homberg, a sensitive future topic meets an extraordinary place: Compassion instead of Sympathy – with Andrea Zylka. The lecture with exercises invites participants to sort their own experiences, rethink empathy, and consciously perceive the fine line between closeness and boundaries.
A special space for a special topic
The Free Columbarium Rheinkirche combines modern burial culture, architecture, and cultural events into a quiet yet open event experience. Especially for topics surrounding grief, relationships, and inner balance, an atmosphere is created here that does not need to be loud to touch. Those who appreciate sensitive content in a dignified setting will find a suitable place for encounter and reflection.
Andrea Zylka: Experience, clarity, and a sense for nuances
Andrea Zylka has accompanied people through transitions and life crises for many years. As a licensed practitioner for psychotherapy, dance and body therapist, as well as a grief speaker and companion from Duisburg, she combines psychological competence with spiritual openness. Her work thrives on a warm-hearted, clear approach and the ability to frame even heavy topics in an understandable and sustainable way.
Experiencing compassion anew
The title of the evening is programmatic: It addresses the question of how compassion can succeed without losing oneself. Visitors can expect not a detached theory but a mix of impulses, examples, and exercises. This creates an evening that not only imparts knowledge but also sharpens one's perception and opens new perspectives on burden, boundaries, and human connection.
