### **Families Through Time: Past Stories, Present Lives, Future Families** Families are central to human life. They shape identity, belonging, values, and everyday experience. Across history, family forms have changed in response to economic conditions, cultural traditions, social norms, and political structures. At the same time, families deeply influence individuals’ emotional worlds, relationships, and life opportunities. This session explores how family structures have evolved over time, how they function in contemporary society, and how they may transform in the future. We will examine both structural changes and personal experiences, connecting historical developments with present realities and future possibilities. In this session, we will focus on the following topics: * **Historical family forms**: nuclear, extended, and multigenerational households and how they shaped daily life * **Changing roles across generations**: shifts in parenting, gender roles, and family responsibilities * **Social and cultural influences**: how norms, religion, and legal systems define and regulate family structures * **Contemporary family diversity**: single-parent, blended, LGBTQ+, and chosen families * **The future of families**: how technology, work patterns, migration, and social change may transform family life This will be an open and reflective conversation grounded in historical understanding, social analysis, and personal perspectives. Together, we will explore how families shape our past and present—and how we can imagine supportive and inclusive family forms for the future. **Event Details** ️ **Date:** Saturday, 7 March 2026 ⏰ **Time:** 14:00 **Location:** Hardenbergstraße 10, 10623 Berlin **WhatsApp (for prep materials and directions):** [Group Chat](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Ba8ZAaH2Yuk6FGmD3LLO7H) ⚠️ Note: This is a WhatsApp group link.

What is Tantra? How does Tantra differ from other spiritual or self-development practices? What is the role of sexuality in Tantra? What are the core principles of Tantra? Can Tantra be practiced alone or is it mainly for couples? How does Tantra enhance personal and spiritual growth? This 4-hour workshop is designed specifically for beginners who are curious about Tantra and want to get a first taste of its profound teachings. With the aim to demystify, we’ll address common questions and misconceptions through both discourse and direct experience. After the introduction round and discourse, you’ll be invited to practice a series of guided exercises designed to deepen your comprehension of Tantra's core principles. These practices include active meditation, energy practices and both solo- and partnered exercises, allowing you to tap in to an embodied experience of the teachings.

My passion for Tantra is rooted in a deep spiritual yearning and an inner knowing that Tantra is my path.

I create a space that is loving and nurturing, with a strong emphasis on ensuring that you feel save and supported. My workshops are gentle yet transformative, spiritual yet grounded and always heart-centered. I'm passionate about bridging the wisdom of ancient Tantra with modern-day practices.

Come back home to your body and your sensuality, stepping into delicious self-expression. No performance, just dancing for your own pleasure. Explore, embody and express your sensuality from a place of self-love and discover what you need to drop in more fully. It's not about looking a certain way or moving a certain way- it's about you feeling comfortable in your skin and celebrating your aliveness, your beauty, your radiance - and allowing yourself to be witnessed as this alive, beautiful, radiant being As women we often feel unsafe in our sensual and sexual expression. Afraid that it might be seen as an invitation or that it will be used against us. The truth is that when a woman is connected to these parts of herself, she is immensely powerful. When you think of a lap dance, you might think of a strip club where men seem to have the power and women are dancing for their pleasure. **This workshop aims to redefine the dynamics of a lap dance** where the dancer dances for his or her own pleasure while the receiver holds space for their process. Together we explore the qualities that support or diminish your sensual expression. The goal is not to seduce the receiver - though whenever you are fully dropped in, this becomes inevitable. **This is a Tantra inspired event.** The dynamics of a lap dance offer a perfect representation of the eternal love story between Shiva (divine masculine) and Shakti (the divine feminine). In this workshop we will play with masculine and feminine energy - exploring their qualities and how they interact and fuel one another. You’ll be invited to embody both. This is not a dance class where you learn steps. You are always invited to follow your own flow, exploring your unique expression. **Become a more fully and expressed version of yourself and discover yourself through the art of lap dance.** **What to expect** * Introduction & sharing * Warm up exercises to connect with the group, to land in your body and to gradually prepare you for the lapdance * Playful boundary exercise * Exploration of feminine and masculine qualities * Lap dance experience * Reflection on what supports and diminishes your sensual expression **Program (subjective to change)** 15.00 - 16.00 Introduction & sharing 16.00 - 16.30 warm up & connection 16.30 - 17.00 embodiment practice 17.00 - 17.15 playful boundary setting practice 17.15 - 17.30 short break 17.30 - 18.15 exploring masculine and feminine qualities 18.15 - 18.45 lap dance practice 18.45 - 19.00 closing circle **What to bring** * Wear anything that you feel comfortable, sensual and confident in; maybe something that feels nice on your skin, something that allows you ro move easily, or- it can also be something sexy. If you are unsure what to wear, you can simply bring the outfit you are unsure of and slip into it whenever it feels right. * Water bottle * Journal (optional) **Testimonials** *I highly recommend going to Sophie’s offering Conscious Lap Dance. It was almost like a beautiful women’s circle plus expressing and connecting to ourselves and other women through the art of dance. I learned so much about space holding and taking space in the most beautiful mutual and safe way. I got to experience how dancing staying connected with myself can feel. Very empowering :)* **\- Maria L** *Sophie facilitates her events with passion, presence and so much integrity. I felt really seen and safe in the lap dance event and did connect with my inner goddess and playful spirit. Also my fears in the beginning were welcome and I could integrate some wounded parts within me. Every exercise is really an invitation to get to know yourself and your pleasure better while being able to connect in small steps with other participants.* **\- Sophia Lara** **Tickets** 45€ per person [purchase your ticket here](https://www.sophieheldens.com/tickets?utm_source=meetup&utm_campaign=lapdance) [ ](https://www.sophieheldens.com/tickets) [ ](https://www.sophieheldens.com/tickets)**Location:** Praxis Köpi Köpenicker Straße 175 **Please take note:** This event takes place at a beautiful studio located on the 5th floor.

It's my greatest passion is to create spaces in which individuals and couples are able to (re-)connect with the beauty of life, the beauty of humanity and the beauty of being themselves. I have been teaching Tantra for over 3 years. I'm double certified as a Tantra teacher (700 hours by the esteemed Ma Ananda Sarita) and have studied with teachers in Greece, Thailand, India and Ibiza. My workshops are gentle yet transformative, spiritual yet grounded and always heart-centered.

Dieses Meetup ist Teil einer weltumspannenden Initiative, um Bewusstheit, Mut und Warmherzigkeit (Awareness, Courage and Love) im Umgang mit uns selbst und in der Begegnung mit anderen zu üben. Die Idee zu dieser Initiative stammt von Mavis Tsai, PhD, der Mitbegründerin einer relativ neuen psychotherapeutische Richtung namens Functional Analytic Psychotherapy (FAP). In den ACL-Meetups sollen diejenigen FAP-Grundsätze, die sich in der Psychotherapie als besonders wirkungsvoll herausgestellt haben - nämlich die offene und warmherzige, authentische Begegnung - mit möglichst vielen Menschen geteilt werden, seien es Partner, Verwandte, Freunde, Klienten, Nachbarn oder sogar gänzlich Unbekannte. Wir treffen uns wieder vor Ort in Neukölln! Sowohl bekannte Gesichter als auch neue Teilnehmer:innen sind herzlich willkommen! Ladet gerne Menschen ein, denen ihr Nähe zuteilwerden lassen möchtet. Ihr könnt jederzeit von der Möglichkeit Gebrauch machen, euch mit Gästen anzumelden. Bitte seid pünktlich. Wir schließen den Raum spätestens um 16:05 Uhr, um einen sicheren Rahmen zu gewährleisten. Wenn ihr es nicht pünklich schafft, seid ihr gern bei einem unserer nächsten Treffen willkommen. Zum Hintergrund der ACL-Meetups: In den Meetups üben wir, mit unseren verletzlichen Seiten in Kontakt zu treten, uns anderen Menschen gegenüber authentisch zu zeigen, und Nähe in zwischenmenschlichen Begegnungen zu schaffen. Um Nähe und Verbundenheit mit anderen Menschen erleben zu können, braucht es: Bewusstheit (Awareness) der eigenen Bedürfnisse, Wünsche, Ängste, Vermeidungstendenzen und Unzulänglichkeiten, Mut (Courage), sich mit all diesen Teilen unserer selbst zu zeigen und dabei das Risiko einzugehen, sich der Beurteilung und möglichen Ablehnung anderer auszusetzen, und Warmherzigkeit (Love) im Umgang mit uns selbst und anderen, sodass wir unserem Mut und unserer Verletzlichkeit mit Wohlwollen und Mitmenschlichkeit begegnen und uns gegenseitig ermuntern, uns zu öffnen. Inzwischen gibt es Meetups an mehr als 90 Orten in 28 Ländern auf 5 Kontinenten mit weltweit über 10.000 Mitgliedern. Wir (Mathias Funke und Ralf Steinkopff) organisieren die Berliner Gruppe. Es gibt ca. 6-8 Treffen im Jahr, in denen wir die Prinzipien von ACL miteinander erfahren können.

Sleep in on Sundays. When you've had your fill of pajama-time, roll out and have some tasty brunch with your fellow Humanists!

Come join us for coffee at Matari Coffee to discuss our March book, "The Enchanted Greenhouse"! Book description: Terlu Perna broke the law because she was lonely. She cast a spell and created a magically sentient spider plant. As punishment, she was turned into a wooden statue and tucked away into an alcove in the North Reading Room of the Great Library of Alyssium. This should have been the end of her story . . . Yet one day, Terlu wakes in the cold of winter on a nearly-deserted island full of hundreds of magical greenhouses. She’s starving and freezing, and the only other human on the island is a grumpy gardener. To her surprise, he offers Terlu a place to sleep, clean clothes, and freshly baked honey cakes—at least until she’s ready to sail home. But Terlu can’t return home and doesn’t want to—the greenhouses are a dream come true, each more wondrous than the next. When she learns that the magic that sustains them is failing—causing the death of everything within them—Terlu knows she must help. Even if that means breaking the law again. This time, though, she isn’t alone. Assisted by the gardener and a sentient rose, Terlu must unravel the secrets of a long-dead sorcerer if she wants to save the island—and have a fresh chance at happiness and love.

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Our March speakers are Molly Gaines and Zack Parrish, co-organizers of the Secular Education Association: They will share their story of how a small group of Ohio parents grew into a national organization tracking released-time religious instruction and other church–state issues in public schools. The presentation will cover SEA’s early wins and hard lessons, what we’re seeing nationally right now, and how local advocates can play a meaningful role in protecting public education. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of the landscape — and practical ways to get involved. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online Join Zoom Meeting [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1) Meeting ID: 878 3656 4953 Passcode: 760812 One tap mobile +19292056099,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (New York) +13017158592,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (Washington DC) The formal presentation will start at noon
