Nur fĂŒr Frauen: Neue Freundinnen in Berlin - Freundschafts-Workshop fĂŒr Frauen
**đ¶ WertschĂ€tzungsbeitrag: 10-20 Euro (nach eigenen Möglichkeiten)**
**Falls Du doch nicht kommen kannst, sage bitte ab und gib Deinen Platz frei.**
Wir fangen 18:30 Uhr an. Sei deshalb bitte pĂŒnktlich 18:15 Uhr da. Ein spĂ€terer Einlass ist nicht möglich, weil wir mitten im Flow sind. **Vielen Dank Dir** đđœ
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
**Menschen mit guten Freunden leben lĂ€nger, glĂŒcklicher und gesĂŒnder. AuĂerdem machen gute Freundinnen einfach SpaĂ.**
.
Deshalb biete ich diesen Freundschaftsworkshop an.
.
Manche sagen: "Es ist schwierig, in Berlin gute Freundinnen zu finden." Berlin, die Stadt der 1000 Möglichkeiten ... ich kenne das auch.
.
**đž Dann machen wir einen Workshop!**
1. Maximal 20 Frauen.
2. Eine leichte Moderation fĂŒhrt durch den Abend
3. Ihr lernt Euch kennen und habt SpaĂ.
4. Wer mag, trifft sich wieder.
.
Du wirst ĂŒberrascht sein, wie vertraut Du mit vielen nach 3 Stunden sein wirst - so, als ob Ihr Euch schon lange kennt.
.
**đ± 4 Jahre Arbeit - 1 Workshop**
Vier Jahre ich geforscht und ausprobiert, wie Menschen Freunde werden & was die Magie der Freundschaft ausmacht. Das Ergebnis ist dieser Abend.
.
Praxisnahe, schnell umsetzbare Tipps, die Du schnell in den Alltag umsetzen kannst. Kleine Happen zur Theorie. - Und vor allem: Kennenlernen & SpaĂ haben. Wir probieren einfach miteinander aus.
.
Eine Teilnehmerin sagte mal zu mir:
* "Georg, das ist so eine angenehme AtmosphÀre. Danke, dass Du das machst."
.
Was soll ich sagen? Stimmt. Das ist mein Anliegen đ€.
.
.
**đ Diese Methoden kannst Du in Deinen Alltag mitnehmen.**
Ab sofort kannst Du Menschen besser und persönlicher kennenlernen â und damit tiefe Verbindungen und bessere Freundschaften aufbauen.
.
.
**â° Die TĂŒren sind offen ab 18:15 Uhr.**
* Deinen Mantel aufhÀngen, WC, eine Runde schwatzen und los geht's...
.
**â Darf ich wiederkommen?**
Es gibt nur wenige Veranstaltungen, bei denen man wirklich miteinander ins GesprÀch kommt. Hier schon, mit Tiefgang.
.
Einige kommen immer wieder, um die Details des gut gestrickten Programms zu ergrĂŒnden - und immer wieder neue Menschen kennenzulernen oder auf bekannte Gesichter zu treffen.
.
Bis es endlich Klick macht und die richtigen Freundinnen gefunden sind.
.
.
**đ Was bringst Du mit?**
* Etwas zu trinken (z.B. deine Wasserflasche, keinen Alkohol!)
* Wenn Du magst: Zettel und Stift. Das ist aber nicht notwendig.
* Du solltest satt sein und vorher gegessen haben
* Bargeld fĂŒr den WertschĂ€tzungsbeitrag (10-20 Euro)
.
**đ Der Veranstaltungsraum**
* Wir haben einen wunderschönen Raum im Kieztreff in Berlin Mitte (mit sauberen Toiletten!).
* nĂ€he Hackescher Markt & FriedrichstraĂe. Sehr gut mit Ăffis zu erreichen.
* Vor Ort ist alles ausgeschildert.
.
**đ±đœââïž Warum moderierst Du als Mann diesen Workshop?**
.
Hi, ich bin Georg. Ich weiĂ, ich bin ein Mann. Warum moderiere ich dann diesen Workshop?
.
Abenteuer Freundschaft ist mein Beruf. Am Anfang war ich auf MĂ€nner-Freundschaften spezialisiert. Ăberraschenderweise waren 60 Prozent der Newsletter-EmpfĂ€ngerinnen Frauen. Frauen scheinen die Wichtigkeit guter Freundschaften viel mehr zu spĂŒren.
.
Deshalb habe ich letztes Jahr angefangen, Workshops fĂŒr Frauen anzubieten. Soziale TrĂ€ger, das Rathaus Schöneberg und das Frauenzentrum Begine haben mich bereits fĂŒr Freundinnen-Workshops gebucht. Im Frauenzentrum moderiert eine Freundin die Workshops.... denn da darf ich noch nicht mal rein :).
.
Unseren Workshop werde ich zurĂŒckhaltend moderieren. Ich weiĂ mit der Situation umzugehen. Das ist Euer Raum.
.
FĂŒr die MĂ€nner gibt es alle zwei Wochen am Dienstag einen MĂ€nner-Workshop, der regelmĂ€Ăig gut besucht ist.
.

**đČ Ehemalige Teilnehmende der Meetups:**
.
"Ich hatte Schwierigkeiten in Berlin anzukommen. FrĂŒher war es immer easy. Bei deiner Veranstaltung haben wir uns kennengelernt. Jetzt sind wir Freunde. Ich hĂ€tte das nicht mehr geglaubt."
.
"Ich bin ein bunter Hund und habe viele Bekannte. Aber eine Bekanntschaft zur Freundschaft machen - das hast Du mir gezeigt."
.
"Ich war nervös, ob ich wirklich kommen soll. Was sind da fĂŒr Leute? Mit wem verstehe ich mich? Nach einer halben Stunde war mir klar: Gute Freunde sind gleich. Ich muss mich nicht mit jedem verstehen. Und allein fĂŒr die Methoden hat es sich gelohnt. Dankeschön!"
.
"So schnell im Deep Talk. Interessant!"

Productive Sunday Morning - Co-Working Session (Deep Work, all work welcome)
Hey everyone!
Iâm organising a co-working + socialising session for all of us who like to work on something (e.g. our own project, freelance or remote work) but don't feel like sitting alone at home. đ
To ensure that we have both **socialising** AND **working**, we will be using the so called âPomodoroâ technique:
**50min of deep work** (silent), followed by **10min of break** to socialise. Then repeat! If you get into flow, you're also welcome to skip the breaks.
Itâs an effective way to stay focused - you can read more about it [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique).
Anyone from any background is welcome, whatever project you are working on or whatever is your personal background.
I (the host) speak English and German, so either is fine :-)
ââââââââââââââââââ-
AGENDA:
* **15min Intro**
* Get to know everyone, talk about what you will work on today
* **Pomodoro Session** (3x) - *Each Pomodoro session consists* *of...*
* ...**50min** of uninterrupted âdeep workâ (no talking, no interruptions, no phones)
* ...**10min** of break: share your progress with others, talk about what you are stuck on etc.
* Repeat
* Conclude and celebrate your progress
Share your progress, socialise and get to know others đ
ââââ
We'll be at the Social Hub Berlin (they have a food menu in case you get hungry). The structured part will end at 2:30pm, but you're welcome to stay longer, go for lunch together, or leave earlier. See you there đ©”
**\*\*We'll reserve the long table. Please update your RSVP in advance if you can't attend!\*\***
Womenâs Book Club: The Party by Tessa Hadley
This week we are discussing Tessa Hadley - The Party
We look forward to seeing you!
If you have book suggestions, would like to vote on our next reads, or join us for additional activities, please ask someone at the meeting to add you to our WhatsApp group.
SU&W In-person Mitte
Come along, grab a coffee, shut up, and write! We will do at least two sessions of each 45 minutes of writing and two breaks. We will start the first writing session at 11:15.
**For space reasons, we are limited to a certain number of attendees, so please update your RSVP if you can't come**. We often have a large waiting list, and not updating your RSVP or not showing up if you do RSVP yes means that others miss out. We also ask that if you do change your RSVP, do it with reasonable notice. Thanks! We typically take over all of the cafe, but try to share tables if you can to allow space for other customers.
If you are new, come and say hello, as we know that suddenly going quiet for 45 minutes and staring at that blank page can be intimidating when it's your first time. We have a lot of long-term regulars who will be happy to help you feel welcome.
In between sessions, we have a Telegram chat: https://t.me/joinchat/ERW3pxD5kfELGeWs9SUhjw
For more information, visit [https://shutupwrite.com](https://shutupwrite.com/).
Silent Reading Club
**Silent Reading Book Club**
A new way to enjoy reading! Ditch the old book club, where everyone has to read the same bookâŠthis is better!
It works like this: Bring your own book. Come chat, have some tea or coffee, get to know your neighbors. Then we quietly read together, side by side, for about one hour, each one reading their own book, and afterwards we talk with each other about what we are reading.
You may read in any language, you may read any book. We are a group of international residents of Berlin from many different countries, of all ages, and we converse in English. We welcome you!
no registration needed- the event is donation based
Co-Working Session (Deep Work, all types of work welcome)
Hello! Iâm organising a coworking + socialising session for all of us who are working on projects (e.g. our own creations, freelance or remote work) but don't feel like sitting alone at home. đ
To ensure that we have time for both socialising AND working, we will be using the so-called âPomodoroâ technique:
**50 mins deep work** (silent), followed by **10 mins break** to socialise. And then repeat!
You are welcome to join whatever your personal background is, and whatever project you are working on.
I (the host) speak English and German, so either language is fine.

AGENDA:
* **Short Intro**
Tell us who you are and share something about what you will be working on today
* **Pomodoro Session** \- 3x \(3h\)
Each Pomodoro session consists of 50 mins focused âdeep workâ (no talking, no interruptions, **phones on silent mode**)
-> then 10 mins break: a chance to share your progress with others
-> Repeat
* **15 mins Wrap Up**
Celebrate what you achieved and get to know others đ
ââââ
The location is **Espresso House near Checkpoint Charlie** (they have multiple outlets - so be sure to go to the correct one!)
Wifi + power plugs are available - but best to bring a fully charged laptop, just in case đ
You **do not** have to pay anything. But since we are using the café space, it is common courtesy to buy at least one drink (coffee costs roughly **4 Euros**).

December Book Club/White Elephant Book Exchange
Welcome, readers! âïž
Our December read is **_A Quiet Life by Ethan Joella._**
A Quiet Life by Ethan Joella is a tender, character-driven novel that follows three people in a small Pennsylvania town as they each cope with loss and seek connection. Chuck, a widower, struggles to find meaning after his wifeâs death; Ella, a young woman, faces the heartbreak of her missing daughter; and Kirsten, a veterinary technician, grieves her father while contemplating her future. Their stories intertwine gently, revealing how grief and hope coexistâand how even small acts of kindness can help people rediscover purpose and peace in the aftermath of tragedy.
Looking forward to discussing with everyone!
At this meeting, our third annual White Elephant book exchange will take place!
If you'd like to participate, bring a gift-wrapped book that you already own. On the gift wrap, write the genre of the book.
We will meet at Zaftig Brewing Co in their event room in the back. We are welcome to bring in our own food, but **drinks must be purchased at the bar.**
Happy reading! đ

Shut Up & Write!Âź Easton Town Center
We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator.
Join us on Sunday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking!
âą What we'll do
Join us for an hour of writing! Weâve discovered that itâs strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if itâs true for you at noon on Sundays.
Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done.
SCHEDULE:
12:00 - quick intros.
12:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour.
1:10 - chat / take off / keep writing.
OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 1-1:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing.
BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.
Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you!
âą What to bring
Whatever you need to be able to write!
Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible.
See you at The Café on Sunday!

Free In-Person Events: How to Let Go of the Past and Move Forward
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.
