I don't speak German, but if you find something interesting don't hesitate to share :)

Sure! it seems it is a team of two german aphants who are building a german-speaking community around aphantasia. One of them, Merlin Monzel, who studies aphantasia in Bonn. I have seen him some time ago on a stream of the aphantasia network.

In the recording, Merlin shares some of the results of the research and, the other member, Nadine, shared a few meditation techniques she uses to identify emotions and to regulate. I found it quite interesting, I'll regularly check out that forum.
