Abstract
The state of war presents society with serious challenges that require prompt and comprehensive solutions. However, ensuring quality education, particularly for gifted students, remains one of the key priorities. The authors of the article propose a scientific approach to addressing this issue, which encompasses a range of psychological and pedagogical methods and practices. The development of gifted students at any point in history demands flexibility and consideration of their unique needs and specific circumstances. It is essential to provide them with support, resources, and tools that facilitate the realization of their potential and enable them to achieve success even in challenging conditions. The article presents psychological intervention methods and other approaches that help foster the abilities of gifted children and maintain their emotional well-being. Giftedness encompasses both intellectual abilities and the capacity for stable and effective social interaction, grounded in harmonious psychological states. However, prolonged exposure to stressful conditions, such as uncertainty or existential threats, can lead to psychological imbalance, even while maintaining high intellectual capabilities. This complicates social relationships and adaptation, creating states that fall between normalcy and pathology. Such disruptions can range from mild (neurotic) to severe (psychotic), but they are all characterized by emotional instability, a tendency toward impulsivity, difficulties in managing emotions, and even the risk of self-harm. These challenges are particularly evident in interactions with others, hindering empathy, understanding, and the ability for self-transcendence. To support gifted students, ensure their mental well-being, and preserve their intellectual potential, the authors of the article have selected tools primarily aimed at stabilizing students’ conditions, preventing disorders, and creating an environment for their harmonious development. According to the authors, the most effective methods for addressing and preventing disorders of the psychotic and neurotic spectrum include dereflection groups, meditative groups, and group grief-healing trainings. The article provides a detailed description of these tools, as well as the anthropological foundations that highlight their relevance in both contemporary contexts and beyond time.
