đž Neurodivergent Spring Cleaning Swapđž
Sat, Apr 25, 12:00 PM**Out with the old, in with the "new-you"âthrough reuse instead of consumption.** As the seasons change, so do our interests and needs. Join us for an assembly in the form of a community swap meet, organized by and for neurodivergent folks to promote sustainability and community care. **The idea is simple:** maybe you want to clear out your closets, or maybe you just want to meet us at the park to see if anything interests you. Both are perfectly okay! Whether you come with a bag full of treasures or arrive empty-handed just to hang out and browse, you are welcome here. **Info & Accessibility:** * **Date/Time:** Saturday, 25th of April, 14:00 - 17:00 (**IF IT RAINS; WE WILL RESCHEDULE**) * **LOCATION:** The meetup map is not acurate, go to this google map link and find th neurodivergent sign: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/u9rygDgU8ADDR6Ec6](https://maps.app.goo.gl/u9rygDgU8ADDR6Ec6) * **Access:** accessible for people with reduced mobility. **Bring items you no longer need (If You Want To), such as:** * đ Books, comics, and zines * đ§© Puzzles, board games, and fidget toy * đ Clean clothing, hats, and accessories * đïž Art supplies and stationary * đ Housewares or decor * đ§Š Cozy items (blankets, soft socks) **How It Works (It's Simple):** * **Bring a Blanket or small towel:** lay out your items in front of you. * **Food & drinks to share** (optional) * **Open Trust System:** Once your items are on your blanket, they are considered "up for grabs." * **Browse Freely:** Get up, walk around, and explore what others have brought. If you see something you like on someone else's blanket, feel free to take itâeven if they aren't there. * **Enjoy:** Find your next favorite thing, or simply enjoy the sunshine and the company. * **What's left?** Anything unclaimed at the end must be taken back home. **The Vibe:** This is a low-pressure event for neurodivergent people. There's no need to hover over your items or worry about making conversation. You are welcome to wander, stim, sit quietly with a book you just found, or take a break on your blanket whenever you need. **Community Disclaimer** This event is a community-led initiative organized by neurodivergent volunteers who dedicate their time, energy, and resources to create a welcoming space. We strive to make our events as accessible as possibleâboth financially and in terms of neurodivergent needsâbut we also have our own limitations. We kindly ask for your understanding and empathy, as we rely on the support and cooperation of all participants to foster a healthy, inclusive environment. **Come swap, find your next special interest, refresh your space, and contribute to a more sustainable community**

Cuddling as Collective Care â all genders
Fri, Apr 24, 6:00 PM**Cuddling as Collective Care â all genders** for **LGBTQIA+** **[Book a Ticket](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/regenerative-touch/w11-2026)** **Member: 15 âŹ** **Regular: 30 âŹ** This Cuddle Puddle offers a safe, consent-based space for people of all genders within the LGBTQIA+ community to experience non-sexual touch, communal connection and rest. Guided exercises support emotional wellbeing, boundaries, and self-awareness. **Cuddle Puddles** are structured, guided spaces where people can experience the benefits of non-sexual touch â such as reduced stress, nervous system regulation, and a deeper sense of belonging. Touch, when consensual and caring, can support emotional resilience and mental health. This **Cuddle Puddle** is open to all genders within the LGBTQIA+ community, creating a space where diverse identities can meet beyond gendered expectations. A non-gender-restricted setting allows for broader empathy, mutual understanding, and connection, while honoring individual boundaries, choice, and safety at all times. **General Information** âą This format is for all queer people (LGBTQIA+) interested in experiencing touch in a safe(r) setting. âą This is a clothes-on format. âą Bring a sheet and towel to cover cushions, mats, or massage tables. âą This event will be in English âą This event is also available at a reduced member price â but not part of the three-free-monthly-events benefit. âą Concession tickets upon written request to **[events@wearevillage.org](mailto:events@wearevillage.org)** **Kuscheln als kollektive FĂŒrsorge â Alle Geschlechter** fĂŒr **LGBTQIA+** **[Anmeldung](https://wearevillage.org/shop/regenerative-touch/w11-2026)** **Mitglied: 15 âŹ** **RegulĂ€rer Preis: 30 âŹ** Dieser Cuddle Puddle bietet einen sicheren, einvernehmlichen Raum fĂŒr Menschen aller Geschlechter aus der LGBTQIA+ Community, um nicht-sexuelle NĂ€he, gemeinschaftliche Verbindung und Entspannung zu erleben. Die angeleitete Erfahrung stĂ€rkt emotionales Wohlbefinden, Körperwahrnehmung und klare Grenzen. **Cuddle Puddles** sind angeleitete RĂ€ume fĂŒr bewusste, nicht-sexuelle BerĂŒhrung, die Stress reduzieren, das Nervensystem regulieren und das GefĂŒhl von Zugehörigkeit stĂ€rken können. Konsensuelle NĂ€he unterstĂŒtzt emotionale StabilitĂ€t und psychische Gesundheit. Diese Cuddle Puddle ist fĂŒr alle Geschlechter innerhalb der LGBTQIA+ Community geöffnet. Ein nicht-geschlechtergetrennter Raum ermöglicht vielfĂ€ltige Begegnungen jenseits von Rollenbildern und Erwartungen. So entsteht ein Feld fĂŒr mehr Empathie, gegenseitiges VerstĂ€ndnis und authentische Verbindung, immer auf Basis von Wahlfreiheit, klaren Grenzen und gegenseitigem Respekt **Was ist Regenerative BerĂŒhrung?** Regenerative Touch ist ein monatlicher Workshop fĂŒr Queer People, bei dem wir uns gegenseitig helfen, langsamer zu werden, in unseren Körper zu kommen und in einer unterstĂŒtzenden und nĂ€hrenden Umgebung die wohltuende Wirkung von regenerativer BerĂŒhrung erkunden. BerĂŒhrung, die im tĂ€glichen Leben oft ĂŒbersehen wird, ist ein grundlegendes menschliches BedĂŒrfnis. In diesen Workshops schaffen wir einen Raum, der ausschlieĂlich ihrer regenerativen und heilenden Kraft gewidmet ist, frei von romantischen oder sexuellen Konnotationen. BerĂŒhrung kommuniziert direkt und erreicht Orte, die Worte nicht erreichen können. Hast du jemals die beruhigende Wirkung einer warmen Umarmung oder einer tröstenden Hand auf deiner Schulter erlebt? Selbst ein kurzes 15-minĂŒtiges Handhalten kann zu einer signifikanten Senkung der Herzfrequenz und des Blutdrucks fĂŒhren und eine starke Entspannungsreaktion signalisieren. Eine einfache 20-sekĂŒndige Umarmung kann zu höheren Oxytocinspiegeln fĂŒhren, dem Hormon, das mit Bindung und Vertrauen verbunden ist. Jeden Monat wird unser trauma-sensitiver Moderator den Abend um Themen wie PrĂ€senz, Regulierung des Nervensystems und emotionale Sicherheit gestalten und sich auf praktisches Erleben anstatt auf zu viele Worte oder Techniken konzentrieren. Es sind keine Vorkenntnisse in Körperarbeit erforderlich â bring einfach deine Neugier mit. **Vorteile** â Erfahre eine Verringerung von AngstzustĂ€nden und Depressionen sowie eine erhöhte emotionale WiderstandsfĂ€higkeit durch beruhigende, achtsame BerĂŒhrung. â Kultiviere wertschĂ€tzende Anwesenheit und tiefere Verbindungen zu dir selbst und anderen. â UnterstĂŒtze die Heilung von Traumata und setze in einer sicheren, nĂ€hrenden Umgebung Emotionen frei. â Verbessere deine Stimmung und deine Immunfunktion, indem du Stress reduzierst und Endorphine freisetzt. â Fördere ein GefĂŒhl von Gemeinschaft und Zugehörigkeit durch gemeinsame, nonverbale Erfahrungen. â Ermutige tieferes MitgefĂŒhl und Akzeptanz durch sanften, unterstĂŒtzenden Kontakt.
