A KAWA on the topic of Freedom

Imagine being able to grasp the concept of freedom clearly, powerfully, and creatively at a glance – that's exactly what our KAWA "Freedom" makes possible! With this unique visualization technique by Vera F. Birkenbihl, you dive deep into the various facets of peace: from removing obstacles to proactiveness, all the way to fearlessness – free from anxiety. What other words would you have thought of?

The KAWA helps you playfully structure complex thoughts and discover new connections. You'll be amazed at how many ideas and impulses you develop as you gradually create your own association map on the topic of freedom.

Ideal for teachers, coaches, or simply for you personally – to gain clarity, be inspired, and reflect on your own contribution to a more peaceful world.

What does KAWA actually mean?

KAWA according to Vera F. Birkenbihl is an acronym and stands for: Kreative Ausbeute von Wort-Assoziationen (Creative Exploitation of Word Associations). But KAWA is easier to remember. You can create KAWAs for any topic that interests you.

How about your own KAWA and why does this technique work?

First, you write the topic in large letters in the middle. I always turn the paper sideways for this and draw the letters so that they can be colored later. In our Mindmap template ring block, KAWAs are drawn on the left white page. Now you let your thoughts wander and consider what comes to mind about the term and what would be important enough to be written down. The rule of the game is: what is written down must begin with one of the letters in the middle. The shorter the term, the fewer letters you have available, and the more you have to think. The lack of letters ensures that you have to think through a topic more intensely. By the way, it is not mandatory to assign every letter. And: there is no right or wrong with KAWA. An example: Suppose you want to create a KAWA about your best friend Eva, then you only have three letters available. But you can assign them multiple times. Perhaps E stands for elegant, successful, eloquent, for V you find her trustworthy, crazy and in love, and for A you have associated silly and single. If your best friend had been named Hannelore, you would of course have had more letters available.

KAWA becomes KAGA

If you also clothe the whole thing in many pictures, your KAWA becomes a KAGA, and the G then stands for Graphic Design. I often write in KAWA form in meetings myself. That keeps me awake, no matter how unimportant or boring a meeting is. And I catch everything. Here's an example on the topic: Have fun, Jens Voigt
