Watercolour Herbarium: A Sensory Workshop
Watercolour Herbarium: A Sensory Workshop
### **🌿 Watercolour Herbarium: A Sensory Workshop** Do you know which herbs boost memory? Which ones calm your body, support digestion, or help you sleep? Join us for a unique 4-day watercolour journey where art meets nature, observation, and everyday wisdom. **In this workshop, we will create our own illustrated herbarium — a personal catalogue of plants — while working directly from real, fresh herbs from my little balcony garden.** You’ll learn how to observe their shapes, textures, and colours, and translate them into delicate watercolour studies. But this is more than painting. Each day, we’ll explore a different selection of herbs like oregano, rosemary, mint, basil and more — learning how they grow, what they’re traditionally used for, and how they can support your body and wellbeing. **We’ll touch them, smell them, paint them… and even taste them in teas and infusions,** engaging all our senses to truly connect with each plant. ✨ What to expect: * Guided watercolour sessions (all levels welcome) * Real herbs to observe and paint from life * Gentle introduction to herbal knowledge & home remedies * A growing collection of your own illustrated herbarium * A calm, sensory, and inspiring atmosphere * Tips about how to grow these herbs at home during this spring By the end of the 4 days, you’ll leave not only with a beautiful series of paintings, but also with a deeper understanding of the plants around you — and how they can become part of your everyday rituals. The workshop includes **four classes**, but you’re also welcome to join individual sessions (when available). To receive the registration form and full details, please contact: 📩 **hola.berlinartclub@gmail.com** **When:** Tuesday 5 - 12 - 19 - 26 May From 6 to 7.30 PM **Where:** Friedrichshain, Berlin (You will receive the exact address by e-mail) **Price:** 85€ for the whole month (4 classes) Single class 25€ / Paypal & Bank Transfer **Material:** You will need a watercolour set, watercolour paper (or sketchbook) and brushes.

Whether you're expecting, currently on leave, planning ahead or wanting to support your teammates, navigating parental leave comes with a lot of new challenges. Technical careers require us to stay up to date and living in Germany adds another layer of bureaucratic hurdles to the mix. To help you feel more prepared, we have selected panelists who've been through it and will share their experiences openly: what worked, what surprised them, and what they wish they'd known. We'll cover the practical and bureaucratic side, the career side, and we'll reserve time for your questions. **🗓️ Agenda** 6:30 Arrival and networking 7:00 Welcome and Intro 7:10 Panel Discussion: Planning Parental Leave in Tech 9:00 Event ends **Panel: Planning Parental Leave in Tech** ● **Saranya Parvathi Ganesan**, Senior Software Engineer @Immoscout24 ● **Sinny Kumari**, Associate Engineering Manager @Red Hat ● **Vanessa Ating**, Senior Frontend Engineer ● Moderated by: **Vaishali Thakkar,** Confidential Computing Expert @SUSE **🍕 Food and Drinks** There will be vegetarian and vegan food and beverages sponsored by our host Bettermile. 🗣️ **About the Panelists** **Saranya** I’m a mother to a four-year-old daughter and currently work as a Senior Software Engineer at ImmoScout24.

Offener Deutschunterricht - Text & Konversation - Niveau B2+ (Fortgeschritten)
In diesem Kurs beschäftigen wir uns mit verschiedenen Texten aus unterschiedlichen Bereichen. Das können u.a. kurze Geschichten, Gedichte, Zeitungsartikel, Kolumnen oder Videos sein. Immer sind es Themen, die uns gefallen, die wir besonders interessant, wichtig oder manchmal auch richtig schlecht finden. Gemeinsam versuchen wir die Position der Autor*in, den Stil und die Argumentationsstruktur zu verstehen. Dazu diskutieren wir über das, was wir verstehen, welche Meinung wir zu dem Thema haben oder welche Fragen offen bleiben.
Gerne könnt ihr uns auch Themenvorschläge mitbringen oder zuschicken.
Der Kurs richtet sich an interessierte Menschen mit einem B2-Niveau (oder so ähnlich), die Lust haben sich weiter mit der deutschen Sprache zu beschäftigen und ihren Wortschatz zu erweitern.
Die Termine sind sporadisch.

Stress Management & Mental Performance
Stress Management & Mental Performance
📅 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 \(Berlin Mitte\)
