### ***This is a closed course that can only be booked and attended as a whole.*** ***So it’s best to join one of the other sMove! trainings beforehand – either on Thursdays in the park or online on Saturdays: [www.baerbelsinger.de/smove ](www.baerbelsinger.de/smove)*** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- ### Sensing and Expanding 🌿 sMove! invites you to expand your sensations and ways of expression through the body. The movements are simple and playful – yet they go deep: by moving with awareness, you discover qualities within yourself that are often covered by habit or tension. ### The Body as a Container 🌀 The body is more than muscles and bones – it is a container of memories, energy, and possibilities. In sMove! training, we explore this potential through rhythm, new movements, and focused attention. Each movement becomes an opportunity to sense more clearly, to shift old patterns, and to unfold new qualities – vitality, calm, presence, joy. ### Clarity through Intention 🎯 What makes sMove! special is not performance or perfection, but the direct experience of your body paired with intention, precision, and letting go. When you allow your body to guide you, space opens: your mind becomes quieter, energy can flow, aliveness grows. sMove! strengthens you inside and out – with more flexibility, strength, and ease. ### Experiencing Community 🤝 In the group, connection arises. Everyone moves in their own way – and yet we resonate with the shared rhythm. This collective presence builds trust in your own strength, encourages curiosity, and makes it easier to try something new. ### Who is sMove! for? 🌍 sMove! is open to everyone – previous experience is recommended (feel free to ask). 15 sessions * **November 2025**: 11., 18. * **Dezember 2025**: 9., 16. * **Januar 2026**: 20., 27. * **Februar 2026**: 3., 10., 17., 24. * **März 2026**: 24., 31. * **April 2026**: 7., 14., 28. 💶 Fee Early Bird: 280€ Full package: **320 €**

Dear friends, Thank you again for the previous session. Next Wednesday we continue with "Thomas the Obscure". Last time we were with Thomas who read. We asked what happens in that strange moment of reading. What kind of presence arises there, and where it remains once the reading withdraws. This time we will look briefly at Jacques Lacan’s reading of the text. The reader is no longer simply the one who sees. The words begin to look back. Something in the image acquires a strange life and places the reader inside its field. As before, we read passages together and follow the text slowly. Side fragments will be provided. No prior knowledge required, only patience with the text.

**👋 Hello Strangers! —** For all players and chess-curious folks out there who want to chill, make friends, and enjoy some chess: We are hosting a daily meetup in Mitte / Prenzlauerberg for all experience levels.

**The Question of Success: Psychology, Society, History, and Personal Meaning** Success is one of the most commonly used and least clearly defined ideas in modern life. People are encouraged to pursue success in education, careers, relationships, creativity, and personal development. Yet what success actually means—and how it is defined—varies widely across historical periods, cultures, and individual experiences. For some, success is associated with wealth, status, recognition, or professional achievement. For others, it may mean autonomy, purpose, intellectual fulfillment, meaningful relationships, or inner well-being. Because of this diversity, success is not only a personal aspiration but also a social and psychological concept shaped by historical context, cultural values, institutions, and collective expectations. This session will explore how the idea of success is formed, pursued, and experienced. We will consider how social structures, cultural narratives, and psychological processes influence what people strive for, how they evaluate their lives, and how they interpret achievement and failure. In this session, we will focus on the following topics: * How different cultures and historical periods have defined a successful life * What psychology reveals about motivation, ambition, and the drive to achieve * How society—education, work, and social expectations—shapes our idea of success * The inner side of success: self-belief, identity, and personal values * Why success does not always lead to happiness—and what failure teaches us * Who gets the opportunity to succeed—and how we might redefine success today This will be an open and reflective conversation grounded in historical perspectives, psychological research, social structures, and personal experience. Together, we will examine how success is constructed, how it influences our decisions and identities, and how individuals and societies might rethink what it means to live a successful life. 📅 **Event Details** 🗓️ **Date:** Sunday, 22 March 2026 ⏰ **Time:** 14:00 📍 **Location:** Hardenbergstraße 10, 10623 Berlin 📱 **WhatsApp (for prep materials and directions)** [Group Chat](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Ba8ZAaH2Yuk6FGmD3LLO7H)

Chitta Walks is for people whose days move fast, while the mind never fully lands. Thoughts keep looping even when nothing is urgent. The body moves, but attention is elsewhere. Over time, this disconnect drains clarity and ease. This walk is a simple reset. We meet in Berlin’s Tiergarten and walk at a gentle pace. Parts of the walk are in silence, with light guidance and a few short prompts. The walk itself is the practice, bringing body and mind back into the same moment. No apps. No performance. Just a clear space to slow down and notice what is happening. If you want to slow down without withdrawing from life, join a Chitta Walk. ✨ **What to expect (approx. 90 minutes):** * A short arrival and orientation * A guided silent walk (phones off, no conversation) * One concise science-based impulse on attention or stress * Optional reflection in pairs or small groups * A simple takeaway or experiment for daily life 🚶**Who this is for:** * Professionals, creatives, and people in transition. * People who feel mentally busy and want more clarity and balance. * Those curious about mindfulness, but grounded and practical. * Anyone comfortable with silence and gentle self observation. 🔔 **Practical notes:** * Duration: 60-90 minutes * Wear comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing * No prior experience needed * Group size is limited to keep the space quiet and focused 🧭 **Facilitator:** My name is Partha Sarathi, you can call me PS. I have lived in Berlin for over 12 years. With a background in physics and materials science, my interest in mindfulness grew through personal experience with stress and health challenges. I facilitate the space and structure of the walk, inviting shared exploration rather than instruction. 🤔 **Why Chitta Walks?** Chitta is a Sanskrit word referring to the mind or field of awareness, used here in a practical, non-religious sense. Chitta Walks is about noticing how the mind works by slowing down and walking together. Mindful walking makes thought patterns visible in real time, while moving and sensing in the world. The name points to a simple capacity: noticing what is happening in the mind without immediately trying to fix, judge, or optimize it. 🌿 **Possible effects:** A calmer nervous system. Clearer attention. A felt sense of being more present in your body. Subtle insights into how your mind reacts under everyday conditions. A quieter, more grounded way of moving through the city. **Come as you are. Walk. Notice. Leave with a little more space inside.**

Kennst Du das auch? Manchmal spürst Du, etwas hält Dich zurück. Du hast Ziele, aber innere Blockaden, Selbstzweifel oder alte Muster halten Dich zurück. An diesem Aufstellungstag schauen wir gemeinsam auf Dein Anliegen – egal ob es um Familie, innere Anteile, Symptome, Verhaltensmuster oder Beziehungen geht. Was erwartet Dich? \- mit wohlwollendem Blick auf Dich und Dein Anliegen schauen \- in die Akzeptanz kommen \- ins Spüren und Handeln kommen \- erste heilsame Schritte gehen \- ein geschützter Raum für Dich in kleiner Gruppe Wie arbeiten wir zusammen? Bei unserer gemeinsamen Arbeit machen wir uns das Phänomen zu nutze, dass der Mensch seine Emotionen räumlich wahrnehmen kann. In einer Aufstellung können durch stille Bewegungen im geschützten Raum neue Lösungsansätze entstehen, erspürt und ausprobiert werden. Die Herangehensweise im Schweigen ermöglicht es, Muster, Spannungen und unbewusste Hindernisse zu erkennen und den nächsten heilsamen Schritt auf dem eigenen Weg zu gehen. Was wird passieren? Wir starten mit einer sanften Einstimmung, stellen in Ruhe die individuellen Themen auf und beschließen mit einer gemeinsamen inneren Einkehr den Tag. So kannst Du gestärkt und in Verbundenheit in Deinen Alltag gehen.

Nature Reset is a mindful walk in nature, just outside Berlin, offering a conscious break before the next stretch begins. We combine: – mindful walking in nature – intentional pauses – light but productive group formats to get to know each other a little bit – space for alignment, reflection, and mutual support – pristine nature close to the city This is not just a casual walk, but a serious self-care appointment. It is also not a sports event. We go for a cozy walk in order to slow down and get out of the hustle for a while. Participation is free. Donations are very welcome. 🚗 Ridesharing will be coordinated in the group. 👉 Join the Telegram group for details & updates: https://t.me/Nature_Reset Sunday, January 25 · 11:00 📍 Meeting point: S-Bahnhof Borgsdorf ⏳ Duration: approx. 2–3 hours

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.
