Peter Sebastian Müller gave an insight into his moving life.
He talks about career, homosexuality and loss.
An evening that produced more than just an emotional confession.
Wies
– At exactly 8 p.m. the time had come: around 100 visitors sat in the audience and looked with interest at the guest who entered the hall with the moderators Sylvia Hindelang and Werner Böglmüller.
A man who looked sympathetically around took a seat between the moderators and then began by admitting that at first he didn't really know what to talk about.
Over the next 90 minutes it became clear that there was a guest there who turned out to be a wonderful rhetorician with his heart in the right place.
It was Peter Sebastian Müller, 55 years old, from Steingaden.
He grew up with four brothers, trained as a nurse and then trained as a naturopath.
He has been running his own practice for 24 years and is in a same-sex relationship and briefly introduced his partner, who was sitting in the audience smiling.
Peter Sebastian Müller was influenced by the death of his mother
Müller also said that both men were married to a woman before their relationship and both brought a biological daughter into the relationship.
What was formative for Müller was that at the young age of 20 he lost his mother, who was suffering from depression, to suicide and was the one who found her.
This began Müller's process of internally examining life questions such as "Why does something like this happen?", "Why does someone get tired of their life and see no other way but to get out of life?" He found ideas, but none clear Answer.
This is how he happened to get his training in solution-oriented autosystem hypnosis, and Müller added: “After my daughter, this was the best thing that happened in my life.”
The search for your own path
He found clear answers like that, especially behind serious illnesses, including depression and sadness, it often means that you don't have a fulfilling life.
That you basically can't live something in life that suits you.
“And 'slap bang', I suddenly landed on my same-sex part.
I realized I couldn't get around it anymore.
I have to deal with this now.
I have to find a way,” revealed Müller.
And he added: “I had a wonderful time with my wife and consider it a great wealth, which I don’t regret in any way.
Everything was fine as it was.
And then it was time for a change because I realized that if we don't manage to live who we really are, to implement what is really important to us, then sooner or later it will make us sick."
With a lot of courage, he then took the path that was right for him, always thinking about Jesus' suffering.
Who, no matter how many times he fell, always got back up.

According to Müller, anxiety disorders are increasing
Following the insight into his moving life story, the moderators asked Müller their questions.
Hindelang asked how Müller would deal with the “hardcore religious fanatics” that exist in all religions and who still talk about homosexuality being pathological.
Müller's answer: "Basically you can say, especially when it comes to homophobia, and especially when someone is so bigoted about what is right and wrong, then there is always a slight risk that they themselves will be affected by it." And he added Adds: “Sometimes you can get the idea that they feel the inner part, but that under no circumstances should it be felt and let alone be visible.”
Böglmüller asked which problems and diseases are increasing and whether the current political world situation plays a role and has an impact on health.
Müller replied that fear and anxiety disorders are increasing and that people have a great need and longing to be understood and noticed.
Audience asks questions about homosexuality
The audience was then allowed to ask Müller questions.
And they came in droves, for example about how hypnosis works.
In this context, Müller also explained the difference between medical hypnosis, in which the patient's consciousness is always present and the patient therefore remains in control during hypnosis, and hypnosis on television, which is purely for ratings and the show, according to Müller is invasive towards people.
Further questions went back to same-sex equality and whether he thought young people today have an easier time experiencing acceptance in their path.
Müller said yes, although he admitted that he had an uneasy feeling when he received the invitation to the discussion.
But that also showed him how important it is to talk about it.
Müller revealed: “We live in a wonderful environment in Steingaden.
We are perceived as people and do not focus on what is not possible, but rather on what is possible, where we are welcome and feel goodwill.”
Bridge between same-sex and his work
At the end he received words of praise and full respect and recognition from the audience.
That it was moving how much he was at peace with himself and the way he dealt with same-sex sexuality and his work, which Müller accepted with a smile and finally built the connecting bridge between same-sex sexuality and his work: “That is the central thing about my personal homosexuality and my work connects.
The moment I stand up for who I am and how I am and understand this as unique, then we are rich.
There’s nothing nicer.”
