It's one year but it still hurts.
In deep sadness, I say goodbye to Elias Baumgartl a wonderful person who was a guiding light for many.
Yesterday, at 81 years old, he passed away. His death leaves a big empty space in my heart, and my family and I are very sad and shocked.
Elias was not just a good friend, but also my mentor. We had a special bond because of our shared love for martial arts, NLP, and hypnosis. He was my student in Kyusho Jutsu, and I was his student in NLP and hypnosis. We taught each other and learned from each other. Our project, TLSC, was our effort to combine these worlds—martial arts, trance, and hypnosis—into one, just like he did in his own life.
Elias was always there for me, in good times and bad. My family and I owe him so much. We will really miss our deep and lively conversations and his heartfelt laugh.
His last phone call a week ago now feels like a final goodbye that I still can't fully accept. In this difficult time, I send my deepest condolences to his wife, whom he loved more than anything.
Rest in peace my dear friend. See you on the other side. I will never forget you.
😢😥
