Bouldering Session

Have you always wanted to learn bouldering but never had the right company? Or are you an experienced boulderer who just wants to find boulder-buddies? If yes, this is the right event for you. We are going to meet inside "urban apes Basement Boulderstudio", close to S Anhalter Bahnhof, also not far from Potsdamer Platz. If you have never been there, you will need to sign up with them, which will take a bit of time. After that, **you can find us on the couches near the lockers (not in front of the reception), next to a red smiley**. When you enter the actual gym, enter the hall by turning left immediately - you are walking towards them. We will start warming up around 11:10, so everyone has enough time to arrive and get changed before that. ***\*\*\**** *Spots are limited, so please update your RSVP at least 24 hours in advance if you won't be joining. **NO-SHOWs ARE NOT COOL \*\*\**** We enter the gym at 11:00, if you are late, you will need to look for us inside. IMPORTANT: they only accept cards as a payment method. No cash. One day ticket will cost you 13,90 EUR (10,90 EUR if you are a student, free if Urban Sports Club). **What to bring: well, first of all, a good mood.** But you could also bring * climbing shoes if you have any. If not, you can rent them there, no worries. They cost 3,50 EUR. * a lock (for the locker). * chalk. You won't need that if you are a beginner. Renting is possible. * water. * extra clothes. It's quite chalky there and humans sweat, not the best mix, don't you think? :D Please, note: the organizer is not responsible for anything, including injuries. A basic introduction will be provided.

Beginner Bodyweight Strength & Calisthenics (FREE)

Looking for a fun way to get stronger, improve your fitness and meet new people? Join me on Wednesday at 7:00 pm for a free beginner-friendly outdoor bodyweight training class. Whether you've never exercised before or you're looking for a new challenge, this class is designed to help you build strength and confidence at your own pace. Hi, I'm Maroof 👋 I've been practicing calisthenics for over six years and one of the things I love most about it is that it brings people together. Watching people achieve movements they never thought possible, whether it's their first push-up, their first pull-up or their first handstand, is incredibly rewarding. What to expect Each session includes a guided warm-up, beginner-friendly strength exercises using your bodyweight, progressions for pushing, pulling, squatting and core strength, optional introductions to calisthenics skills as you progress and a fun team game at the end (with a small prize for the winners 😁) Every exercise has easier and harder variations so you can work at a level that suits you. There is no pressure to keep up with anyone else. Who is this for? ✅ Complete beginners ✅ Anyone wanting to get stronger using bodyweight exercises ✅ People looking for a friendly outdoor fitness community ✅ Anyone curious about calisthenics You do not need to be able to do a pull-up, push-up or any advanced movements before joining. Many people come on their own so don't worry if you won't know anyone. The class is welcoming, supportive and a great place to meet like-minded people. What to bring Comfortable workout clothes, water and positive attitude. Price: Free. This is a recurring class every other Wednesday unless otherwise stated. Disclaimer By attending, you acknowledge that you are responsible for your own safety while participating. If you plan to come, please RSVP so I know how many people to expect. If your plans change, I'd appreciate it if you could update your RSVP. If you have any questions, feel free to get in touch!

Anytime Anywhere Meditation

**Transformiere Deinen Alltag mit Meditation** *Ein zweitägiger Workshop, der das Potenzial hat, dein Leben zu verändern.* Beim Meditieren geht es nicht darum, etwas zu reparieren oder zu optimieren. Alles ist schon da: Präsenz, Wohlwollen, Weisheit - wir müssen es nur erkennen und uns mit diesen natürlichen Qualitäten in uns verbinden. Würdest Du gerne meditieren, findest im Alltag aber nicht die Zeit dafür, haderst mit dem stillen Sitzen oder meinst, zu viele Gedanken zu haben? Anytime Anywhere Meditation zeigt Dir, dass es keine besonderen Bedingungen für eine regelmäßige Praxis braucht. Denn, du kannst jederzeit und überall meditieren - auch, wenn du auf dem Smartphone scrollst, auf der Arbeit in einer Besprechung sitzt oder Kaffee trinkst. Sogar schwierige Emotionen können zu einer Stütze für Deine Meditationspraxis werden. **Ein anderer Blick auf Dein inneres Erleben** Was Anytime Anywhere Meditation von anderen Programmen unterscheidet, ist die Sichtweise – die Art und Weise, wie wir uns zu unseren inneren Erfahrungen verhalten. Untersuchungen zeigen, dass allein dieser veränderte Blick auf die eigenen Gedanken und Emotionen das Wohlbefinden verbessert und bei Ängsten und Depressionen helfen kann, selbst wenn Du Dich gar nicht hinsetzt und meditierst. **Workshop für Anfänger und erfahrene Praktizierende** Die Wurzeln von Anytime Anywhere Meditation liegen im tibetischen Buddhismus, das Programm verfolgt allerdings einen universellen Ansatz. Es steht allen Menschen offen, ganz gleich welchen Hintergrund sie mitbringen. Meditationsanfänger lernen praktische Techniken kennen, um „kurz, aber oft“ zu meditieren. Erfahrene Praktizierende entdecken, wie sie die Grenze zwischen formaler und informeller Praxis auflösen und Meditation zu einem natürlichen Bestandteil ihres Alltags werden lassen. **Entwickelt von Mingyur Rinpoche** Mingyur Rinpoche ist ein weltweit anerkannter Meditationslehrer, Bestsellerautor und TED-Speaker, der mit seinen Lehren Menschen rund um den Globus fürs Meditieren begeistert. Er ist bekannt für seinen Humor und sein tiefes Interesse an den modernen Wissenschaften. Im Bewusstsein, dass viele Menschen nur wenig Zeit haben und sich dennoch nach tiefgreifenden Veränderungen sehnen, entwickelte er Anytime Anywhere Meditation - ein kompaktes und dennoch umfassendes Programm, das Meditation ganz praktisch fürs moderne Leben zugänglich macht. **Was Du in diesem Workshop lernst:** * jederzeit und überall zu meditieren * Meditation als Weg zu erkennen, um dein inneres Potenzial zu entdecken * die natürlichen Qualitäten von Präsenz, Mitgefühl und Weisheit zu kultivieren * schrittweise eine regelmäßige, alltagstaugliche Meditationspraxis aufzubauen * Gewahrsein mit in den Alltag zu nehmen und alltägliche Tätigkeiten zur Meditation zu nutzen **Der Workshop beinhaltet:** * Videos des tibetischen Meditationsmeister Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche * Anleitungen von zertifizierten Anytime Anywhere Meditation-Lehrerinnen * Raum für den Erfahrungsaustausch in der Gruppe und Deine Fragen * geführte Meditationen, die Dir dabei helfen eine eigene Praxis aufzubauen * praktische Anleitungen fürs Meditieren in Bewegung und bei alltäglichen Tätigkeiten **Kosten:** * 75€ Unkostenbeitrag * zuzüglich Honorarspende für die Lehrer\*innen (50€ - 100€) **Uhrzeiten:** * Samstag 10-17 Uhr * Sonntag 10-16 Uhr **Kursleitung:** **Franziska Ritter** arbeitet als Journalistin und hat 2016 zum ersten Mal das Bodhicharya in Berlin betreten. Was sie suchte, war ein Ausgleich zu ihrem fordernden Job. Was sie fand, war so viel mehr. Sie wurde Teil der Tergar-Praxisgruppe, die sich dort wöchentlich trifft, und übernahm bald die Leitung einzelner Abende. Franziska lebt in Strausberg und unterrichtet neben Meditation auch Qigong. **Franziska Mergl** saß 2011 das erste Mal in einem Meditationskurs. Mit einem Hintergrund in Marketing und Kommunikation war sie viele Jahre in der Wirtschaft tätig, bevor sie 2016 in den Non-Profit-Bereich wechselte. Heute arbeitet sie für buddhistische Organisationen und engagiert sich ehrenamtlich im sozialen Bereich. Sie lebt in Berlin.

Psychedelic Forest Hike II

Hey psychedelic fans! As the leaves begin to change color, we are once again heading out into the beautiful Grunewald.
