**Join us for outdoor grass volleyball in Hasenheide park!** This event is not suitable for complete beginners. We play with two nets. The "chill court" is for mixed-level play with 3v3 up to 5v5. The "competitive court" is for higher-level 2v2 play with beach rules. Be sure to wear suitable sports clothing and perhaps bring a drink. There are no facilities such as changing rooms and showers in the park. A nearby public toilet is also available, but it might be closed, dirty, or not have toilet paper. **Location**: We play in the narrow clearing, located between the two paths in the center of Hasenheide park, on the southern side. Updates will be posted in the WhatsApp group, which you can join via [https://tinyurl.com/ParkVolley](https://tinyurl.com/ParkVolley) **RSVP**: Put yourself on the waitlist, even if other people are already on there. The waitlist is not chronological, so even if there are 30 people on there, you still have a chance! If you get a spot, you will be moved to the attending list and notified by Meetup. This is a free event with limited space. **If you can't make it, promptly update your RSVP to NO** so others can take your place. If you do not show up or cancel last minute, you will be marked as a no-show, reducing your chances of getting off the waitlist in the future. **Payment:** This event is free, but you are invited to make a 2 EUR donation towards equipment. **Attending**: Do not join if you have an infectious disease. You need to be on the attendee list to attend; **being on the waitlist is not sufficient**.

Hi lovely people, This Saturday is outdoor Jam Session No. 1 in Rehberge Park this year! Come around to chill and play with us. We have some basic instruments: drum set, bongos, congas, electric guitar, PA & mixer. Feel free to bring your own instruments and we'll plug you in! There will be cold/warm beverages and cake provided by our friend of Initiative Parkcafé Rehberge. At the Rehbergepark jams, musicians and listeners come together to float in the music. For one afternoon, the Parkcafé Rehberge will become a place for experimentation and free music-making without any barriers in a relaxed atmosphere. Over cake, coffee, and drinks, everything blends together: children, parents, music lovers, musicians, passersby, dogs, and people. We are happy to see you on Saturday ☀️🌱🎶🥁🎷🎸 Cheers, Manu (place: Google maps: parkcafe rehberge)

Wachstum, Entfaltung des eigenen Potentials, Selbstverwirklichung (oder im Englischen Self-Actualization) sind Wörter, die für viele Menschen eine wichtige Rolle spielen, ja man könnte sagen, dass sich mit ihnen Glaubensvorstellungen verbinden, die einer Religion ähneln. Wo aber gehört der Begriff Selbstverwirklichung hin? Zu Psychologie, Biologie, Philosophie, Religion, zum Coaching oder auf die Müllhalde der Geistesgeschichte? Obwohl schon Aristoteles über die Entelechie (das Innehaben des Ziels) sprach, wurde der moderne Begriff erst im 20. Jahrhundert wissenschaftlich geformt. Der Neurologe Kurt Goldstein prägte den Begriff in seinem Werk „Der Aufbau des Organismus“. Er betrachtete Selbstverwirklichung als einen biologischen Drang, als Triebkraft eines Organismus, all seine Kapazitäten auszuschöpfen. Ein Organismus strebt danach, seine Integrität zu wahren und sein Potenzial in der Umwelt zu entfalten. Abraham Maslow ist der Name, den die meisten heute mit dem Begriff verbinden. In seinem Aufsatz „A Theory of Human Motivation“ stellte er die berühmte Bedürfnishierarchie vor. Selbstverwirklichung steht an der Spitze der Pyramide. Er definierte es als das Verlangen, immer mehr das zu werden, was man ist, und alles zu werden, wozu man fähig ist. Im Gegensatz zu Goldstein sah Maslow es als ein "Wachstumsbedürfnis", das erst richtig aktiv wird, wenn Defizitbedürfnisse (wie Hunger oder Sicherheit) gestillt sind. Der Psychotherapeut Carl Rogers integrierte das Konzept in seine klientenzentrierte Gesprächspsychotherapie. Er glaubte, dass jeder Mensch eine innere Tendenz hat, sich selbst zu erhalten und zu fördern. Psychische Probleme entstehen laut Rogers dann, wenn diese Entfaltung durch äußere Bedingungen (z.B. mangelnde Akzeptanz) blockiert wird. Maslow und Rogers gelten als Gründerfiguren der so genannten humanistischen Psychologie, die sich weniger an Defiziten als an positiven Möglichkeiten orientieren wollte. In der Psychologie wurde darüber debattiert, ob die Thesen der humanistischen Psychologie wissenschaftlich prüfbar sind. Kann man Selbstverwirklichung wirklich messen? Was "volles Potenzial" bedeutet, ist subjektiv. Für den einen ist es das Malen von Meisterwerken, für den anderen die Erziehung von Kindern. Kritiker werfen dem Konzept vor, sehr westlich und individualistisch geprägt zu sein. In kollektivistischen Kulturen wird "Selbstverwirklichung" oft durch den Beitrag zur Gemeinschaft definiert, nicht durch die eigene Entfaltung. Die humanistische Psychologie verschwand zusammen mit ihren Therapien aus den Universitäten und Ausbildungsstellen. Die so genannte Positive Psychologie versucht, das Erbe anzutreten. Moderne Forscher dieser Richtung haben das Konzept in messbare Faktoren zerlegt: Autonomie, Kompetenz und soziale Eingebundenheit. Diese drei Faktoren sind empirisch extrem gut belegt und gelten als moderne, wissenschaftliche Entsprechung der Selbstverwirklichung. Was aber wird aus der Idee, dass wir ein Potential in uns tragen, dass es zu entfalten gilt? Ist das – wenigstens als Glaubensvorstellung oder Orientierung - noch sinnvoll?

You leave feeling lighter, calmer, clearer… and with a smile on your face. In the Mindful Play Lab, mindfulness becomes not only calm, but also playful and full of joy. Outdoors in the park, we combine conscious awareness with movement, small games, and genuine human connection. There’s space to laugh, explore, and discover. Instead of sitting still, you’ll dive into simple, creative exercises that bring you into the here and now—sometimes quiet and mindful, sometimes lively and playful. No pressure, no “right or wrong,” just curiosity and ease. **You can expect:** * Playful mindfulness exercises in nature * Connection, presence, and shared experiences * Practices that build trust, awareness, and presence * Moments to pause and to laugh This event is for you if you’d like to experience mindfulness with more joy, lightness, and aliveness.

Draußen im Park verbinden wir bewusste Wahrnehmung mit Bewegung, kleinen Spielen und echten Begegnungen. Es darf gelacht, ausprobiert und entdeckt werden.

Ohne Druck, ohne „richtig oder falsch“, dafür mit Neugier und Leichtigkeit. **Dich erwarten:** * Spielerische Achtsamkeitsübungen in der Natur * Begegnung, Verbindung und gemeinsames Erleben * Übungen für Vertrauen, Präsenz und Wahrnehmung * Momente zum Innehalten und zum Lachen Dieses Event ist für dich, wenn du Achtsamkeit mit mehr Freude, Leichtigkeit und Lebendigkeit entdecken möchtest.

Einladung zu einer Reise hin zum eigenen Körper: Wenn unser Geist Urlaub macht, taucht darunter ganz von allein Spiel, Spontaneität, Leichtigkeit auf. Aber wie kommen wir in eine solchen Zustand? Zeit, Sanftheit, Kommunikation. Mit ganz unterschiedlichen, leicht zugänglichen, Impulsen und Übungen aus Contact Improvisation, Tanz und Movement beginnen wir mehr und mehr nach innen zu horchen. Durch sowohl Stille als auch Bewegung kommen wir zur Ruhe, wecken erhöhte Präsenz und Verbundenheit. Experimentieren, Loslassen und Albernheit sind willkommen, wenn wir mit uns selbst, in Partnerarbeit und in der Gruppe in Bewegung kommunizieren. Der Workshop richtet sich an alle Neugierigen, die dieses Im-Moment-Sein schon immer mal ausprobieren wollten - oder bereits Erfahrungen haben. Wie ist es, wenn wir für eine Weile alles kalkulierende fallen lassen und uns einfach nur dem hingeben, was unser gemeinsamer Atem kreiert? Bitte komm' in gemütlicher Kleidung, in der du dich gut bewegen kannst, ohne große Knöpfe, Schnallen, Accessoires, ohne allzu vollen Magen :-) 🕛 Wann: Sonntag 19.04.26, 14-17 Uhr 📍Wo: Villa Offensiv, Hasselwerderstraße 38, 12439 Berlin Anmeldungslink: https://forms.office.com/e/NuZgqM3Cjz \-\-\-\-\-\-\- When our mind takes a break, playfulness, spontaneity, and lightness emerge naturally. But how do we reach such a state? Time, gentleness, communication. Through diverse, easily accessible impulses and exercises from Contact Improvisation, dance, and movement, we begin to listen more and more to our inner selves. Through both stillness and movement, we find peace, awaken heightened presence, and experience connection. Experimentation, letting go, and silliness are welcome as we communicate with ourselves, in pairs, and as a group through movement. This workshop is for all those curious to experience this state of being in the moment—or who already have some experience with it. What is it like when we let go of all calculation for a while and simply surrender to what our shared breath creates? Please come in comfortable clothing that allows you to move freely, without large buttons, buckles, or accessories, and don't eat too much :-) 🕛 When: Sunday, April 19, 2026, 2–5 pm 📍 Where: Villa Offensiv, Hasselwerderstraße 38, 12439 Berlin Registration link: https://forms.office.com/e/NuZgqM3Cjz

For this meetup, we’ll leave the open park paths behind and walk deeper into Treptower Park toward a quiet, secluded spot in the woods for a more forest-oriented sit. This session is inspired by the old Buddhist forest practice: training the mind in places that evoke stillness, uncertainty and awe. We’ll reflect on what it means to stay present and steady in the face of discomfort, imagination, and the unknown — by learning to stay with what arises instead of reflexively avoiding it. The theme is optional and lightly held; the main focus remains simple shared practice in silence. **Structure** * Tea and short introduction * 20 min **goodwill practice** * 20 min **calm concentration** * 20 min **insight / open awareness** * Tea and informal exchange afterward Quiet, grounded, and practice-focused. Bring something to sit on, a hat, and clothes suitable for the forest. Be ready for a short walk to the sitting spot. **Location:** Treptower Park / Plänterwald We’ll meet at the bridge to Insel der Jugend, then walk together to the practice spot.
