Meaning: From a Life of Inner Consent to the Detection of Spirituality

Dr. Alfried Längle will explore the importance of meaning and its impact on mental health in three ways: first, I will overview Viktor Frankl's concept of a meaningful life (Logotherapy) which helps localize the requirements for attaining meaning and reveal practical steps for its attainment. Second, I will take a deeper look at the structure of our existence from the theoretical perspective of Existential Analysis. Third, I will show the practical elements for a fulfilling life through the therapeutic approach. The presentation is intended to illuminate the possibilities for growth in one's own spirituality and provide skills to manage the question of meaning both personally and professionally.
