Awareness and Mindfulness

A small NEXUS gathering built around movement rather than discussion alone. This is for high-bandwidth Mavericks who spend most of their time in conceptual thought and need some physical counterweight. Why bouldering? Because it’s deliberate: short problems, full focus, and immediate feedback. You’re on the wall, solving something tangible. The mental noise drops instantly! Conversations happen naturally in between climbs. No pressure, you move at your own pace. Some exchanges stay light. Others go deep. Both are fine. This is not about athletic achievement. It’s about presence, recalibration, and being around people who don’t require you to shrink or translate yourself. Come as you are. Try some bouldering problems. Rest when needed, and engage where it makes sense. **Bring comfortable clothes and climbing shoes if you have them (rentals are available at the gym).** *Registration equals commitment. If you sign up, you show up. Read the group description first and decide consciously.

RAUM FÜR SEIN – Ankommen im Körper Dieser Workshop ist eine Einladung, für einen Moment aus dem Alltag auszusteigen und wieder bewusst im eigenen Körper anzukommen. Wir beginnen im Kreis mit einem einfachen Mantra, das durch Klang und Rhythmus eine ruhige, verbindende Atmosphäre schafft und das Nervensystem beruhigen kann. Anschließend leite ich eine achtsame Selbstmassage mit ausgewählten ätherischen Ölen an, bei der wir verschiedene Körperbereiche bewusst wahrnehmen und unserem Körper Aufmerksamkeit schenken. Zum Abschluss öffnet sich der Raum für intuitive Bewegung oder freies Tanzen – ganz so, wie es sich für dich im Moment stimmig anfühlt.

**Ice bathing together at Treptower Park and surroundings – regular & reliable ☀️❄️** Exact time and date - we schedule together! Meetup once a week! Hello everyone, I’m looking for a like-minded person (or a small group) who would like to go ice bathing together once a week on a regular basis – preferably at Treptower Park and the surrounding area. The day and time are flexible for me; what matters most to me is reliability and consistency. I’ve been ice bathing for several years and value this practice greatly: as an energising time in nature, as a shared act of overcoming oneself, and as something that is noticeably beneficial for both body and mind. For me, it has positive effects on health, sleep, and recovery – and it’s a wonderful way to start the next week feeling light, uplifted, and content. After four years, my previous ice-bathing partner is unfortunately no longer able to join, so I’m now happy to meet new people. I’m open and enjoy coordinating flexibly. If you already have experience, or if you’re curious and would like to try it out in a committed way, feel free to get in touch. I’m looking forward to the exchange and to arriving together in the cold water. Warm regards, Till

This moment in the yearly cycle symbolizes a state of harmony that brings about a beneficial transformation in Nature as well as in our beings. Everything awakens to life after the period of “conservation and accumulation” of the winter. Especially during this period, a process of purification spontaneously takes place both in our physical body, and in some of our subtle bodies. As a result of this phenomenon, a state of inner tranquillity and peace, of mental and emotional balancing gradually settles in the sphere of our consciousness. From an esoteric point of view, this moment of balance represents a very favourable moment to come into a state of resonance with the glorious androgynous condition – the mystical state of harmony that under certain conditions can manifest in our inner universe between the complementary aspects of our being (Yin and Yang, feminine and masculine, inner and outer, anima and animus, etc). It is not a coincidence that, especially in this time of silent rebirth and mysterious regeneration of nature, most animals mate, plants begin to sprout and bud, and, step by step, one after another, the seeds/germs of life are being reborn all around us. From an astrological point of view, the occult moment of the Spring Equinox marks the beginning of a new astrological year, the moment when the Sun enters the zodiacal sign of Aries, characterized by a state of spontaneity and desire for self-affirmation, being more oriented towards concrete experiences and direct actions. In such favourable moment of the year, we are given an incredible opportunity to align with the mysterious cycles of nature, embarking ourselves in the direction of rebirth, revival, awakening to reality, coming out of sleep, halting the process of hibernation. This mysterious moment of hiatus spontaneously connects us with the huge subtle energies of the beginning, with the optimistic momentum which comes with each new beginning of life. At the same time, this moment of effervescence brings forth a fascinating blossoming of vitality, making us feel full of life and joy, enthusiastic and full of vigour. **Address** Deutsche Akademie für traditionelles Yoga e. V. MahaYoga Zentrum Brunnenstr. 147 10115 Berlin (Directly at underground station U Bernauer Str. (U8) – elevator exit) *Please ring at „Yoga Zentrum“ at our intercom system.

Free of charge \| Event series 2026 \| MahaYoga Zentrum **Presentation in English about:** * „The Astrological Quality of Time for the Month“ & „Specifics of the Special Moment of Shivaratri“: 21:30 – 22:30 * **Meditation for the Moment of Shivaratri:** 22:30 – 00:00 The sages use many methods to remain awake and attentive in every moment. However, the lower mind can obstruct this wakeful and alert state if we are not aware of this instrument – our mind – and its place in our lives. Without this awareness, we allow it to be driven by lower impulses and the (collective) unconscious, leading us away from our true potential. The time around the new moon favors the stillness of the lower mind, allowing access to a higher state of pure perception. This state enables us to connect our consciousness to the universal mind (Shiva) and uncover the essential truth behind every experience. As meditating together in a group amplifies the effects, we gather monthly for the „Night of Shiva“ to experience this collective energy. Beforehand, an experienced astrologer will present the astrological quality of the moment of Shivaratri, including an outlook on the time quality of the upcoming month. Becoming aware of the astrological quality of time helps align our lives with the „Big Picture,“ bringing us closer to harmony with the cosmos and the divine will. It also helps to create an awareness of subtle nuances that can be absorbed and felt during the subsequent meditation. Afterward, there will be an introduction to the question: „What is Shivaratri, and why is it especially valuable to meditate at this moment?“ We will gain valuable insights from an experienced yoga teacher on the role of Shiva in our personal lives. We will then meditate together for 1,5 hours. Since this is a long meditation, please wear comfortable clothing. We have cushions and seating available, but chairs are also provided. It’s best to come on an empty stomach. Drinks can be brought into the yoga hall in closed containers. #### **Event dates 2026** * 16th of January * 15th of February (Maha Shivaratri) * 17th of March * 15th of April * No event in May * 13th of June * 12th of July * 11th of August * 9th of September * 8th of October * 7th of November * 6th of December You can write questions to berlin@traditionelles-yoga.de We look forward to celebrating Shivaratri with you.

**Mindfulness and Journaling Workshop for Young Adults (18-35)** In this workshop, we will do journaling and mindfulness exercises. Journaling describes the practice of writing down your thoughts, feelings and ideas in order to invite reflection and mindful moments. Journaling can also be a useful tool for stress management and for keeping track of your own goals and progress. During the workshop, we will offer journal prompts and small exercises that you can freely implement on paper, in writing or through small illustrations. The goal is not to create an art work but to explore your current thoughts and invite reflection. The workshop is open to anyone who is open to try something new or wants to deepen their own journaling practice. You are welcome to bring your own journal, but we will of course have paper and pens available. The workshop is for free and no previous experience is needed! If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at [kbs@pim-berlin.de](mailto:kbs@pim-berlin.de) or 030 39731322!

This time we meet in **Leisepark**, a quiet park built on a former cemetery, where historical tombstones are still preserved. The setting is a useful reminder of impermanence—something Theravāda practice has been pointing out for about 2,500 years. Few meditation halls provide such direct architectural commentary on *anicca*. **Structure of the session** 1. Short introduction 2. 8-minute easy qigong warm-up 3. 30-minute sit (guided mettā → samatha) 4. Open discussion and exchange 5. Short qigong break 6. 30-minute silent sit The intention is to balance stillness with a small amount of embodied movement, helping the body settle before each sit. Bring something to sit on and dress appropriately for the weather. Prior meditation experience is recommended, as the format assumes familiarity with sustained sitting practice.

The emotional pain from past bad experiences easily lingers in the present, making it hard to enjoy life and create your future. Even when you think you've moved on, the negative emotions can be triggered, sending you back into the pain of that experience. And we are talking about pain; emotions such as grief, depression, anxiety, fear (or terror), boiling anger, simmering resentment, feelings of shame, blaming and regret can leave you incapacitated to a greater or lesser degree. In this local event we will be discussing the reasons why these past bad experiences have the power to affect you long after they occurred. We'll go over why the emotional pain can be so strong. We'll also discuss some simple solutions to overcome your emotional pain and be free to fully enjoy your life again. Examples of painful experiences include: * A broken relationship or divorce. * Death or loss of a loved one. * Death of a pet. * A sudden shock or bad news. * A betrayal. * Being part of an abusive relationship. * A bad injustice. * Loss of a job, position or business. * A grave illness or injury. The negative emotions from these experiences don't just go away on their own. But the good news is there is a way to clear them out of your way. 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 sponsored the Dianetics & Scientology Self-Improvement Center.

Communication is everything in life! You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate. 1266 Dublin Road, Columbus, OH 43215 Hosted by the Church of Scientology of Central Ohio For more information, contact Rhiannon, the Event Host at 614-221-5024

So this month's prompt is more general. I think we can all agree that we are living in "unique" times that require coping skills. I think that one role and/or purpose of philosophy is to help us deal with our daily lives and our "unique" times. So, let's share our feelings and thoughts about which philosopher/philosophy we turn to in order to deal with our crazy events. Who/what helps you stay focused in your daily life and helps you sleep at night. I find that Stoicism with a little philosophical pessimism mixed in goes a long way in helping me deal with what I see as very destructive, fearful and mean spirited public policies at both the state and federal levels. Hope to see you on March 28th!
