German Study & Discussion Group – Art | Sound | Philosophy Looking for people interested in learning and practising German through what we love: texts, sounds, and ideas in the fields of art, music, sound, and philosophy. No strict grammar drills, but collective study, reading, listening, and conversation. We learn together, with curiosity and care. 📖 We will read short German texts (poems, essays, reviews). 🎶 We will listen and describe sound/music pieces. 💭 We will discuss in German (and help each other along the way). Open to all levels – from beginner to advanced. Based in Berlin, meetings will be weekly or biweekly (depending on group). Come as you are 📩 DM or email vestigium.impro@gmail.com if you’re interested.

This late-evening class is a deeply restorative experience designed to help participants transition from the stimulation of the day into profound rest. The session blends gentle grounding practices, guided yoga Nidra or visualization journeys, and immersive sound healing using Tibetan bowls, voice, and subtle resonance. The intention is to calm the nervous system, release mental tension, and support better sleep and emotional integration.

Creative Block Lab . Small artist cohort in Berlin (limited spots) Hi everyone, I’m a filmmaker and multidisciplinary artist currently based in Berlin, and I’m starting a small in-person cohort for artists who feel stuck, blocked, or disconnected from their work. Over the past years, while making my last film, I went through a long and difficult creative block. In that process, I began researching the emotional and psychological patterns that stop artists from creating. I call them creative monsters, forces like perfectionism, comparison, fear, shame, or paralysis. Creative Block Lab is a small, intimate space where we explore those patterns together and slowly reconnect with the impulse to make honest, authentic art. This is not a technical workshop and not a productivity bootcamp. It’s a reflective, human-centered space for artists of any medium. Format This is a 3-session cohort (same group each time), designed to build trust and continuity. Each session (1.5–2 hours) includes: • Short introductions and check-in • A guided reflection on one or two creative “monsters” • Practical tools or small mindset shifts • A 30-minute creation exercise (you can bring something you’re already working on, or just experiment with simple materials provided) • Group sharing and integration The intention is to: • reconnect with your artistic voice • reduce the pressure to be perfect • create in a supportive, non-judgmental space • leave with practical tools you can use in your daily practice Who it’s for Artists of any discipline: • visual arts • writing • music • performance • film • or any experimental/undefined practice No experience level required. What matters most is honesty and willingness to explore. Important note Because the group is intentionally small (around 10 people), there’s a short application form. This isn’t about selection based on skill or prestige, it’s just to keep the group size intimate and make sure the space feels right for everyone. There are only a few spots left for this first cohort. If it resonates with you, you can apply here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdsjkrPF4BFogvBE_DqgghsoFi2Qh1jZuHm1wCeaHqaXjq36A/viewform?usp=header

### **THE BEAR** presents: **COLD** *A night of true, personal storytelling* Winter has a way of showing us where warmth is missing — and where it suddenly appears. This month at **THE BEAR**, we explore the theme COLD: stories about distance and closeness, breaking the ice, emotional frost, quiet loneliness, or jumping into cold water — literally or metaphorically. On stage, everyday people from Berlin share true, personal stories, told live and without notes. No acting. No fiction. Just real experiences, shared in a warm, cozy atmosphere. You don’t need to know anyone. You don’t need to be “into storytelling.” **Just come, listen, and be part of the room.** **🔥 What to expect** • 8 short, true stories (about 5–7 minutes each) • Live music throughout the night • A relaxed, welcoming audience • Laughter, honesty, and moments of quiet connection **We start as strangers — and often leave feeling a little closer.** **🎤 Want to tell a story?** Anyone can put their name into our legendary hat. Names are drawn at random — courage counts more than experience. If you’d like feedback on your story beforehand, just write to us. hello(at)thebear-storytelling.de **💬 Language note** Stories are told in English (and sometimes German). **Everyone is welcome — listeners and storytellers alike.** **If winter feels cold, let’s warm up together.** **We’d love to have you there 🐻✨** 🎤 Open Stage · True personal stories (5 minutes) 🗓️ **Thursday, Feb 19, 2026 · 19:00** 📍 Theatre Pool, Berlin 👉 **[Tickets:](https://www.eventbrite.de/e/the-bear-berlin-presents-cold-stories-about-breaking-the-ice-tickets-1980509250482?aff=oddtdtcreator&_gl=1*1q61529*_up*MQ..*_ga*NzgxMjIwNDM3LjE3NjgzNDM1OTA.*_ga_TQVES5V6SH*czE3NjgzNDM1OTAkbzEkZzAkdDE3NjgzNDM1OTAkajYwJGwwJGgw)**[ €15–20 (sliding scale donation)](https://www.eventbrite.de/e/the-bear-berlin-presents-cold-stories-about-breaking-the-ice-tickets-1980509250482?aff=oddtdtcreator&_gl=1*1q61529*_up*MQ..*_ga*NzgxMjIwNDM3LjE3NjgzNDM1OTA.*_ga_TQVES5V6SH*czE3NjgzNDM1OTAkbzEkZzAkdDE3NjgzNDM1OTAkajYwJGwwJGgw) ## **Our Mission** ## *THE BEAR* **has grown into one of Berlin’s most beloved live storytelling events: a place where strangers become a community through the simple act of listening.** Supported by: [THE BEAR e.V. ](https://deref-web.de/mail/client/3fe0d0dh9KM/dereferrer/?redirectUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fthebear-storytelling.us6.list-manage.com%2Ftrack%2Fclick%3Fu%3Db5d7f087b587f8f081c447437%26id%3Dfc0e2d8df3%26e%3D711d4db9af), [Moving-Speaker.com](https://www.moving-speaker.com/), [Female Speaking Berlin](https://www.femalespeakingberlin.com/), and [Experience Berlin Youtube Channel](https://www.youtube.com/@Berlin-Videos).

In this Yin practice, we take time to pause, soften, and simply be. With the support of long-held, floor-based postures, the body gradually opens, accessing the deeper layers of fascia and energy pathways. We allow gravity to guide the process. This subtle work calms the nervous system, nurtures stillness, and encourages quiet reflection. It's an opportunity to release tension from both body and mind, and to reconnect with yourself on a deeper level. The class is led in English and is open to all levels. .

**A practical approach to understanding, creating and maintaining balance across 6 dimensions of sustainability.** A talk and workshop by Scott Bolden, co-founder of Baumhaus Berlin. What does it mean to live a sustainable life while contributing to creating a sustainable society and world? What are some practical and effective ways in our daily life to achieve these objectives in the short and long term? **PEACES is an acronym** describing six integrated areas of sustainability (**Personal, Ecologic, Aesthetic, Cultural, Economic & Social**) where we as individuals as well as organizations can have direct and positive impact on ourselves each other and the world right now. During this short workshop, Scott will explain the framework and give practical examples in the context of how the framework applies to what happens in everyday life. Participants of all levels of experience are invited to join in the conversation and also identify some practical steps that they can start taking on their path towards living a sustainable life. • Please arrive early enough to have time to explore and settle in so we can get the most out of our time together • Bring a notebook and an open mind... Workshop places are limited, please confirm participation with a short email to info@baumhausberlin.de with the subject: PEACES Donate-as-you-feel after the workshop (includes coffee, tea & snacks) We ask participants to consider: • their personal budget • the value of their experiences during the workshop in the Baumhaus • the value of supporting the Baumhaus so that we can continue facilitating these and various other types of experiences \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- support Baumhaus crowdfunding campaign ( https://www.goodcrowd.org/saving-das-baumhaus ) Baumhaus Berlin Gerichtstr. 23 VH Eg 13347 Berlin

Berlin-based art curator and educator Jenia Yanes invites emerging and mid-career artists to two transformative workshops designed for the realities of the 2026 art world. This two-day intensive is aimed at artists ready to move from a hobbyist position to a professional artistic practice — developing a distinctive voice, a clear artistic mission, a market-aware presence, and a sustainable monetisation strategy through Jenia Yanes’ proprietary hybrid method. ## 21.02.2026 Strategic Foundations * Strategic positioning * Visual language * Artistic identity & mission ## 28.02.2026 Growth & Sustainability * Monetisation models for artists * Institutional and independent growth strategies During the workshops, participants will: * Articulate their artistic position, mission, and core audience * Develop a contextual strategy that bridges inner vision and the external art system * Learn how to integrate galleries, personal branding, merchandise, and digital channels into one coherent strategy * Navigate the post-AI art landscape of 2026, where authorship, narrative, and positioning outweigh technical craft * Gain a clear understanding of how the contemporary art market functions — and their place within it * Formulate an individual development strategy, including open calls, residencies, independent projects, and sustainable monetisation pathways **Booking Details** *Important Note: Please register directly with Jenia Yanes at [www.jeniayanes.com ](https://jeniayanes.com/products/artist-career-workshop)* * Participation fee: €39 per workshop * Bundle price: €65 for both sessions * Capacity: 20 artists per workshop * Registration deadline: 20 February

**Music Therapy & Systemic Psychotherapy** My approach integrates music therapy and systemic psychotherapy to support emotional expression, connection, and transformation. Through sound, improvisation, and dialogue, we explore inner experiences, family dynamics, and relational patterns in a safe and creative space. The sessions invite awareness, playfulness, and presence — allowing music to become both mirror and bridge between what is felt and what can be spoken. Whether through active musicking, deep listening, or verbal reflection, the process unfolds at your own pace, weaving together body, voice, and relationships as pathways to healing and growth.

The Mindful Artist's Way is suitable for anyone who wants to write — without pressure, comparison, or the need for perfection. For anyone who wants to discover their own voice or reconnect with it. This workshop series treats your writing as a mindful and relationship-oriented process. Each session is an invitation to dive deeper into your own perception, voice, and creativity — without pressure to perform, without comparison, without right or wrong. The focus is on writing as a mindful practice: slow, embodied, and connected. Instead of technique, performance, or optimization, it’s about perception, inner security, and the relationship to your own voice. Each workshop is self-contained and at the same time part of a larger journey. Step by step, you are invited to build trust: in yourself, in your writing, and in the creative process. The series is inspired by the mindful and artistic approaches of Julia Cameron’s The Artist’s Way, but follows its own path: gentle, individual, and realistic. Get to know your writing as a partner rather than just a product. What to bring: All you need is your laptop or whatever else you want to write on. I have pens, paper, tea, and vegan cake for you. If you like, bring your headphones, because I’ve created an exclusive writing playlist for you. You can also book the **sessions individually (€15)** **[BOOK HERE](https://sarahniklowitz.de/the-mindful-artists-way/)** Sunday, 08.02.2026 3 - 5 p.m. **Open the Door: Short Stories for Beginners** Sunday, 22.02.2026 3 - 5 p.m. **Writing From Within: Your Body Becomes a Source of Writing** Sunday, 08.03.2026 3 - 5 p.m. **The Art of Not Knowing: Letting Go of Control and Trusting Your Writing** Sunday, 29.03.2026 3 - 5 p.m. **Change of Perspective: Writing From Unusual Angles** Saturday, 11.04.2026 3 - 5 p.m. **Shape Your Story – But Mindfully** Sunday, 26.04.2026 3 - 5 p.m. **Become Visible and Stick With It: Share Your Story And Strengthen Your Relationship With Your Writing**

❗️To RSVP for event, please drop a message to the host ❗️ Come join us for a gentle yet powerful **Seitai group practice** — a space where silence, breath, and spontaneous movement meet. This is a **donation-based event**, so you’re free to contribute what feels right (usually 5–10€). ✨ **What is Seitai?** Seitai (整体) is a Japanese practice that helps you reconnect with your body’s innate intelligence. Through subtle awareness and guided techniques, you’ll be invited to: * **Listen deeply** to your body through *Yuki* (a meditative, hands-on practice of sensing and following the breath). * **Release hidden tension** with *Katsugen* — allowing involuntary, spontaneous movements to arise naturally. * **Find balance** in stillness and movement, letting your body recalibrate itself in surprising ways. Seitai is not about control or forcing; it’s about giving voice to the movements your body has been waiting to express. Sometimes this brings ease, clarity, and lightness. Sometimes it stirs up dizziness, discomfort, or emotions. Every experience is valid — and you are always free to pause or leave at any time. 🌌 **Why join?** * Discover a practice that many find deeply transformative. * Create space for release, renewal, and vitality. * Explore in community, whether you’re a curious first-timer or already familiar with Seitai. 👕 **Practical details** * Wear comfortable clothes. * Bring openness and curiosity. * Watchers are welcome — you can simply observe, or dive into active practice. * The session is guided, but the real teacher is your own body. ✨ Learn more: 🎥 Watch a short video: [https://youtu.be/KF7agFE1zss?si=6UhmjwaIAfBo-_Op](https://youtu.be/KF7agFE1zss?si=6UhmjwaIAfBo-_Op) 📖 Read more about Seitai: [https://seitaibarcelona.com/what-is-seitai/](https://seitaibarcelona.com/what-is-seitai/) Everyone is welcome, whether you are completely new or already familiar with Seitai.

Why are we unhappy? Where does emotional pain come from? Studies show that people who suffer from long-term emotional pain have painful experiences in their lives that were never fully resolved in their mind. In other words, there were issues in the past that were not completely dealt with. This can include abuse in childhood, breakups, divorce, death of a loved one, to name a few. How do you know whether you have gotten over something painful? Here is an easy test: Do you still have attention on what had happened to you? For instance, do you still find yourself thinking about something painful that you went through? If you are, then you are not over it. In fact, in severe cases, people find themselves playing a "tape" in their mind over and over again. So how do you heal from your past? How do you stop the "tape" playing in your mind? In this meeting, you will learn a technique to help you with that. Come join us! Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology life improvement center.
