**Authentische Ehrlichkeit - Ein Einführungs-Workshop** **💶 Wertschätzungsbeitrag vor Ort: 10-20 Euro (nach eigenen Möglichkeiten)** . \-\-\-\-\-\-\- . Gute Freundschaften leben von Ehrlichkeit & Vertrauen. . Gute Freunde kennen sich, wie ihre linke Westentasche: ihr Leben, ihre Gefühle, ihre Wünsche, ihre Einstellungen, ihre guten & ihre schlechten Seiten. . Gute Freunde können „Ja“ sagen, wenn es ein „Ja“ ist; und sie können „Nein“ sagen, wenn es ein „Nein“ ist. . Gute Freunde können sich sagen, was sie aneinander mögen, und sie können sich sagen, was sie nicht so toll finden. . **🙂 Ehrlichkeit als Basis guter Beziehungen** Ehrlichkeit ist die Basis, damit Nähe und Verbindung entstehen kann. . Sich hinter Masken und (unbewussten) Lügen zu verstecken steht dieser Verbindung im Weg. . Ich glaube alle Beziehungen im Leben werden vertrauensvoller, wenn man miteinander ehrlich ist: Liebensbeziehungen, Arbeitsbeziehungen, Freundschaften und selbst die Beziehung zur Bedienung im Café. . **🍀 Dieser Abend ist eine Einführung in die Ehrlichkeit.** Du erfährst, * warum „Lügen“ mehr ist als das bewusste Verdrehen von Fakten. * wie Du im Leben mehr von dem bekommst, was Du wirklich willst, weil Du Dich auf Ehrlichkeit einlässt. An diesem Abend werden wir in kleinen Schritten Ehrlichkeit üben, auch in unbequemen Situationen. . Du nimmst praktische Ehrlichkeitsübungen mit, die Du sofort im Alltag und in Deinen Freundschaften umsetzen kannst. **🧡 Zwei Worte über Ehrlichkeit** Ich habe mich lange versteckt, wollte meine schwachen Seiten, meine Ängste, Gefühle & Unzufriedenheiten nicht zeigen – immer mit der Angst, abgelehnt zu werden. . Irgendwann stieß ich auf Radikale Ehrlichkeit und buchte ein Wochenendseminar. Es war so befreiend! . Meine Erfahrungen findest Du hier: [https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/radikale-ehrlichkeit-erfahrungsbericht](https://abenteuer-freundschaft.de/radikale-ehrlichkeit-erfahrungsbericht) . Danach habe ich das 8-Tages-Retreat gemacht, wo es wirklich ans Eingemachte ging. . Ich habe festgestellt, dass Ehrlichkeit meine Beziehungen zu anderen Menschen deutlich verbessert. . Gleichzeitig fühle ich mich deutlich wohler, weil ich mich nicht mehr verstecke. Ich bekomme meine Probleme gelöst (weil ich darüber spreche) und meine Wünsche erfüllt (weil ich darüber spreche). . Dieser Workshop ist mein Einstiegsbeitrag zu mehr Ehrlichkeit in Beziehungen und Freundschaften. . #### 👱🏼‍♂️ Über mich: * Mein Name ist Georg Preller * Ich bin Betreiber der Seite [www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de](http://www.abenteuer-freundschaft.de) * Ausgebildeter NLP-Lehrtrainer ([DVNLP](https://www.dvnlp.de/)) & Coach * Jahrelang selbstständiger Unternehmensberater * Eigene Vita: Von schüchternen Jungen zum fitten Mann * Mehr über mich: [LinkedIn - Georg Preller](https://www.linkedin.com/in/georg-preller/) . **⏰ Die Türen sind offen ab 18:15 Uhr.** Deinen Mantel aufhängen, WC, eine Runde schwatzen und los geht's... . **❓ Darf ich wiederkommen?** Es gibt nur wenige Veranstaltungen, bei denen man wirklich miteinander ins Gespräch kommt. Hier schon, mit Tiefgang. . Einige kommen immer wieder, um die kleinen Übungen nochmals im gesicherten Rahmen auszuprobieren oder aus Neugier, wie andere ihre authentische Ehrlichkeit leben. . Das Workshopprogramm ist auch jedesmal etwas anderes - je nach Gruppe und zunehmenden Erfahrungen. . **🎒 Was bringst Du mit?** * Etwas zu trinken (z.B. deine Wasserflasche, keinen Alkohol!) * Du solltest satt sein und vorher gegessen haben * Bargeld für Wertschätzungbeitrag . **🏠 Der Veranstaltungsraum** * Wir haben einen wunderschönen Raum in Berlin Mitte * saubere Toiletten * Gut mit Öffis zu erreichen nähe Hackescher Markt * Vor Ort ist alles ausgeschildert. . **Wegbeschreibung vor Ort:** * Vor Ort ist alles augeschildert.

Tolle Berlinerinnen und Berliner, als ich schreibe, sitze ich im Wald zwischen Buchen und Eichen auf meinem Campingstuhl und genieße die Ruhe des Sonnenlichts. Suchst du nach Freiheit von dem Lärm der Szene, Lärm der Stadt? Möchtest du Brücken mit interkulturellen, diversen Leuten aufbauen? Dieses Jahr möchte ich unbedingt neue Leute, die Tiefe und Empathie haben kennenlernen. Diesen Leuten meine Zeit geben, und gegenseitige Freundschaften hoffentlich aufbauen. Selbst glaube ich, dass Mädels und Jungs einander nicht verstehen können, wenn der Sinn von einer Person 100% einer Geschlecht ist und die Person keines der Geschlecht gegenüber kennt. Idealerweise sollte der Sinn 50/50 weiblich/männlich sein, dass wir uns gegenseitig ideal verstehen können. Selbst bin ich Künstler, der sich für Farbphysik (Colour Phenomena) interessiert. Zum Beispiel ein roses Kirschbaum in der blauen morgen Stunde. Oder blaue Bäume im Licht eines bedeckten Sommer Tag, auch wenn jeder glaubt, dass man sachlich weiß, ‚Bäumen sind grün!‘ Colour sind, glaube ich, hauptsächlich weibliche Phänomene. Und als Künstler empfand ich seit langem eine Affinität für Colour. Das Bild oben ist ein Kunstwerk von mir. Ich möchte die ruhigen Leuten erreichen, also der Treff ist entweder Online, per Signal Messenger (Link zur Gruppe im Kommentar; nur für Teilnehmer der Veranstaltung sichtbar) um neue Verbindungen leicht zu machen, oder auch sogar besser persönlich, wenn du dich spontan unterwegs sein will und persönlich treffen will. Wenn du mich persönlich triffst setzen wir uns auf eine Wiese, eventuell in der Wuhlheide, oder auf dem Tempelhofer Feld. Schick mir eine Nachricht vorher per Signal Gruppe und wir können uns vereinbaren. Dieses merken: Bitte rauchen Sie bei dieser Veranstaltung nicht. Ich freue mich neue Leute kennenzulernen! Mit geschmackvollen Grüßen, Duncan

You must complete the registration process on lu.ma to receive the full event location details and confirmation of your attendance. **Please note: Without approved registration on Luma, you will NOT be able to access the event location or attend.** We are excited to host a **BLISS x dida workshop** featuring **Lazar Obradović (Lead Data Scientist @ cognee.ai)**, who will guide us through an interactive session on Agentic AI. ​Title: Explainable Scientific Discovery with AI Memory: Hypothesis Generation and Validation with Cognee and Bayer 📅 Date: 27.05.2026 🕕 Time: 18:00 📍 Location: TU Berlin Marchstrasse 23 [Room 0.011] ​The session will last around 2 hours, followed by a networking session with dida and fellow AI enthusiasts (and free pizza!🍕). Bring your laptop! **​Abstract: Building "AI scientist"** systems that can reliably generate and evaluate research ideas remains effectively an open problem. While LLMs make hypothesis generation cheap, current systems still struggle to connect evidence across papers, domains, and mechanisms in a structured and reusable way. Evaluation is equally difficult, often relying on opaque “LLM-as-a-judge” methods that are hard to interpret or reproduce. We use Cognee to ingest scientific literature and construct a graph-based representation of papers, claims, and entities with associated vector embeddings. We then use this structure to select and organize the context used for hypothesis generation. Candidate hypotheses are evaluated using explicit graph- and vector-based metrics grounded in the underlying corpus. Initial evaluations by Bayer across targeted biomedical domains demonstrated that graph-based AI memory can reliably support scientific hypothesis generation and validation. **⚡ FINAL REMINDER ⚡** **You MUST register and be approved on Luma to attend. The event location will only be visible after your registration is confirmed by the host.

📅 May 28 \| 🕛 7:00 PM \| 💻 Berlin Mitte Let’s meet at @Pizzeria Marienkäfer and exchange ideas and hacks in a cozy evening about stress management and mental performance. We are happy to share the insights from your focus groups. To open the evening, our guests Matthi and Dascha will share a short input on Stress Relief through Breathing and Couple Bonding: simple, science-backed techniques to move from overload into focus, on your own or with your partner. They’ve been practicing daily breath rituals together for years, and they’re the builders behind TwoBreath, a free couples breathwork app launching this summer. You’ll get to try one of their routines on the spot. This meetup will be hosted in english, since many of you asked for it. Lets talk about - these moments... When wou’re technically ready — but your mind feels overloaded. You want to work with focus — but your energy is scattered. You know exactly what needs to be done — but you just can’t get into flow. And this is exactly where performance is decided. Because mental performance is not a coincidence. It’s either developed consciously — or left unused. Many people try to solve this with more discipline. But real mental performance works differently: through clarity, a conscious way of handling pressure, and the right everyday strategies. In this focus group, you’ll find exactly that: * honest exchange on eye level * practical impulses for more focus & energy * new perspectives on sustainable performance ### Agenda * Open discussions, Dinner & Networking We’re looking forward to seeing you! 📅 May 28 \| 🕛 7:00 PM \| 💻 Pizzeria Marienkäfer \(Berlin Mitte\)

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.

With the fate of the free world in the balance, they face an impossible choice: launch the largest and most dangerous seaborne invasion in history or risk losing the war altogether. It is directed by Anthony Maras and based on David Haig’s 2014 stage play. The film stars Brendan Fraser, Andrew Scott, Kerry Condon, Chris Messina and Damian Lewis.

This is an in-person meeting. Did you know that unwanted emotions like loneliness, sadness, hopelessness, anger, fear, anxiety, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not chemical imbalance in your brain due to some nebulous chemical reactions by chance. Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. For instance, let's say you are already carrying a huge load on your back, then you cannot take on much more, but, let's say something else happens to you, such as the difficulties from the Pandemic, then the resultant combined weight on you can take you over the edge, kind of like the straw that break the camel's back. When this happens, people's attention usually goes to the straw that was added, but actually the majority of the weight had come from the huge load that were already there, holding a person down and causing a person issues. So how do you remove the huge load that was already there? How do you lighten them up? Is it possible to get rid of them? That is what this meeting will be all about. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life.
