Join our Women’s Circle at "Das Kabbalah Centre" in Berlin, hosted by Rachel Wende. Language: English. This event is open for new and current students. Amount: EUR 05.00 - 15.00 Living a purpose-driven life is something we all strive for. Such a life promises that we are using our talents, sharing of ourselves, and working towards goals that are fulfilling and inspiring. Staying on the path requires daily effort and yet, with all the responsibilities that we have as women, sometimes that purpose-driven life seems like a worthy goal for sometime after we’ve fulfilled the needs of our partners, children, and jobs. Join us for an intimate women’s circle as we share insights and tools for how to revitalize our search for our purpose. Learn how to get out of patterns and routines that keep us from making the changes we deeply desire. Our path to fulfillment lies within each of us; we only need to tease it out.

Unser Mitglied Bernd hat eine Exkursion zur Fa. Präziform organisiert. Die Daten zur Exkursion zum Thema ‚Funkenerodieren‘: Mittwoch, 22.04.2026 um 16Uhr Präziform GmbH & Co. KG Christian-Henkel-Straße 9 12349 Berlin (Neukölln) [https://www.openstreetmap.org/?#map=19/52.415389/13.427097](https://www.openstreetmap.org/?#map=19/52.415389/13.427097)

Hello fellow Symfonians, we are thrilled to announce the next user group meeting of the year, featuring two insightful talks that you **won't want to miss**! This time we are hosted by c-base (Rungestrasse 20 10179 Berlin). Come by and enjoy an evening of learning, networking, and socializing with fellow Symfony and PHP developers. **Agenda:** 18:30: Doors open 19:00: Welcome and Introduction 19:20: **Talk 1: "Maintainable Frontends for Symfony" by Daniela Berger** 19:50: Break & Snack 20:00: **Talk 2: "Why every CMS needs MCP" by Roland Golla** 20:40: Socializing **Talk Details:** **Talk 1: "Maintainable Frontends for Symfony" by Daniela Berger** In many web projects we find more backend devs than frontend devs, sometimes significantly so. This often leads to devs with little frontend experience being asked to do frontend development anyway, and they often end up shaping their frontends in ways that will make their lives unnecessarily hard. One common result are frontends that are functionally unmaintainable because each change - whether it is a new feature or a bugfix - requires implementing an exception to existing code, thus making the code increasingly and unnecessarily complex. This is especially upsetting because with a bit of experience it is possible to implement light-weight frontend components with equally elegant CSS and JavaScript that are easy to extend and to adapt to new requirements without digging oneself into a deeper hole with each PR. And since Symfony is making frontend development steadily more accessible to backend devs with Symfony US / Stimulus, this is a good time to take a closer look at \*how\* to structure these frontends. This talk aims to a) introduce core frontend concepts that backend devs might not be aware of, b) show best frontend practices both on the code level and on the architecture level, c) show a few common mistakes that can be found in inexpertly implemented frontends, and c) introduce tools that will make consistent frontend development easier. **Talk 2: "Why every CMS needs MCP" by Roland Golla** Your content team already works in ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. Yet the content still lands in the CMS backend manually, clumsily, slowly. MCP changes that. One sentence in chat becomes a published article. No copy pasting, no formatting, no clicking. And the content ranks. On Google, on ChatGPT, on Perplexity, on whatever comes next. Good content written by AI directly into the CMS goes live faster and gets found. I show you the MCP plugin for Sulu CMS: open source, built on Symfony, ready to deploy. But this is not about implementation. It is about the three questions every content team must ask: Why does every website need MCP? What does good AI content look like? And why is conversational content management better than anything you click together in a backend? MCP makes content creation as easy as chat. If you can write, you can publish. No CMS training, no workflow, no waiting. Live on stage: a complete workflow from idea in chat to published article in Sulu CMS. Everything open source on GitHub. Don't miss these insightful talks, engaging discussions, and networking opportunities. We can't wait to see you at the **April Symfony User Group**!" If you have any questions or accessibility requirements, please reach out to us. Also, if your company wants to be the next host for the User Group, just let us know!

Each of the facilitators will bring their experiences in Mindfulness, Zen, Vipassana and other forms of meditation. The body-mind and the senses are explored as doorways into meditation. The purpose of this exploration is to become more conscious of your Self at many levels. Beginning wherever we are, this approach to meditation has an open goal of harmonizing with the present moment. The focus is on slowing down, unwinding tension and relaxing the nervous system. **General Information:** * Previous meditation experience is not necessary. * This event will be in German and/or English depending on participant needs. * The Queer Meditation Group is leaded by a rotating group of four facilitators. * This event can be attended as one of two free monthly events, which are included in the **[we are village Mitgliedschaft](https://wearevillage.org/en/produkt-kategorie/memberships-en-2/)**. 🔵 Die **Queere Meditationsgruppe** bietet einen sicheren und inklusiven Raum für **LGBTQIA+** Personen, um sich durch sanfte Körperabstimmung, Atemachtsamkeit und bewusste Sitzpraxis auf einen erkundenden Ansatz zur Meditation einzulassen. Jeder der Leiter\* bringt Erfahrungen mit Achtsamkeit, Zen, Vipassana und anderen Formen der Meditation mit ein. Vorherige Meditationserfahrung ist nicht erforderlich. Der Körper-Geist und die Sinne werden als Eingangstor zur Meditation erforscht. Das Ziel dieser Erkundung ist es, sich seines Selbst auf vielen Ebenen bewusster zu werden. Ausgehend von dem Ort, an dem wir uns gerade befinden, hat dieser Meditationsansatz das offene Ziel, mit dem gegenwärtigen Moment in Einklang zu kommen und sich zu verlangsamen, Spannungen abzubauen und das Nervensystem zu entspannen. **Hinweise:** * Vorherige Meditationserfahrung ist nicht erforderlich. * Je nach Bedürfnissen der Gruppe werden wir Deutsch und/oder Englisch sprechen. * Die Queer-Meditationsgruppe wird von einer wechselnden Gruppe von vier Moderatoren geleitet. * Diese Veranstaltung kann als eine der zwei kostenfreien monatlichen Veranstaltungen besucht werden, die Bestandteil der **[we are village Mitgliedschaft](https://wearevillage.org/produkt-kategorie/mitgliedschaften/)** sind.

From birth, human beings are learning. Before we are able to hold concrete memories, we are being shaped and impacted by everything about our lives and situations. From the point that we become capable of cognizant thought and memory, our lives could be summed up as a series of our responses to our circumstances, whether for good or for ill. Dr. Joe Dispenza sees a deep need for human beings to live *on purpose*. Rather than just living life in reaction mode, he challenges people to live intentionally, to seek to change the negative that we have encountered and to pursue the positive through purposeful steps in a different and healthy direction. His study and work seek to demonstrate the changes that can be made from the inside out. Join us as we take a look at new ways to grow at **6:30 pm,** **Tuesday, May 5, 2026, at True Food Kitchen, Easton Town Center, Columbus**.
