From the very beginning, I have immersed myself in a spiritual women’s group, which has been a profound source of support and growth. Yoga and Tantra Yoga have brought incredible balance, harmony, and a deeper understanding of myself, truly transforming my life. Throughout my journey with the traditional integral Yoga system, I’ve learned practical ways to bring calm and balance into daily life, even in challenging times. Completing my Tantra Yoga for Women Instructor Training was a turning point, as it allowed me to blossom in ways I hadn’t thought possible. Being surrounded by a nurturing sisterhood showed me the immense power of women uplifting one another, and I now feel called to share this path with other women who seek similar transformation. In this **Tantra Yoga for Women** group, I am excited to lead you through these teachings, helping you connect deeply with your feminine energy and support your blossoming into fullness and joy. Together, we’ll create a safe and sacred space where you can embrace your own potential, find balance, and build bonds with a supportive community of women. I look forward to sharing this journey with you! **Price per month** Normal: 30,00 € ***Note:*** Over Meetup you can only sign-up for the first month for 10,00 €.

**Veranstaltungsort:** Café Amelie Pappelallee 11 10437 Berlin Nächste **U-Bahn-Station**: U2 Eberswalder Straße (4 Gehminuten) **Start:** 09:10 Uhr **Einlass:** ab 09:00 Uhr Liebe Berliner Unternehmer, wir treffen uns auch im Februar erneut in einem der am besten bewerteten Cafés in Berlin: dem Café Amelie im Prenzlauer Berg. Wie auf dem Bild bereits ersichtlich "streckt" sich das Café, was uns eine besonders geeignete Basis für intensiven Austausch zwischen den Teilnehmern ermöglicht. Darüber hinaus gibt es hervorragenden Kaffee sowie Gebäck- und Kuchen-Spezialitäten, vielleicht sogar in einem besonderen Combo-Deal für BNB-Teilnehmer. ;-) Vor Ort gibt es wie gewohnt frische Geschäftskontakte, neue Denkansätze und interessante Kooperationsmöglichkeiten. Wir stoßen dies durch eine moderierte Kontaktrunde an, in der sich jeder Teilnehmer kurz vorstellen (ca. 1 Minute) und anschließend intensiven Austausch mit den anderen Teilnehmern betreiben kann. Bringt bitte nach Möglichkeiten **Visitenkarten** mit, da diese uns das Netzwerken erleichtern. Zu Beginn der Veranstaltung gibt es üblicherweise einen Impulsvortrag. Solltest du Interesse haben, einen Impulsvortrag zu halten, so schreib uns sehr gerne. Weitere Informationen gibt es auch hier: [Impulsvorträge bei BNB](https://netzwerken.berlin/impulsvortraege/) \-\-\- Alle Gründer/StartUps, Freiberufler und Unternehmer/Unternehmensvertreter sind willkommen beim Business MeetUp im Café Amelie im Prenzlauer Berg. Die Teilnahme ist generell kostenlos und NICHT an eine Mitgliedschaft gebunden. Den leckeren Kaffee, Croissants, Kuchen oder was auch immer dich zum Kauf animiert hat, bezahle bitte im Café ;-) Bitte beachten: Unternehmer mit Multi Level Marketing-Geschäftsmodellen schließen wir von unseren Veranstaltungen komplett aus. Weiterhin stehen wir auch allen Arten des Provisionsgeschäfts (Finanz-Optimierer, Immobilienmakler, Versicherungsvertreteter, etc.) extrem kritisch gegenüber und gestatten diesen keine Teilnahme an unseren Events. Solltet ihr der Meinung sein, ihr fallt nicht in diese Kategorie, obwohl ihr in einer der genannten Branchen arbeitet, so sprecht uns bitte im Vorfeld an. Für alle anderen Fragen zum Event stehen wir euch selbstverständlich ebenfalls zur Verfügung. Wir freuen uns darauf, auch dich persönlich kennenzulernen und dir bei der Entwicklung deines Geschäfts zu helfen!

"Wer bin ich und wer bin ich mit dir? Wer bist du und was sehe ich in dir? Was könnte aus uns werden?" Ein empathischer Dialog. Grenzen wahrnehmen. Das Unbekannte erforschen. Alternative "Ich's" ausprobieren. Mit Neugier, mit Offenheit. Ein Raum für unsere Geschichten in Transformation. Dieser Schreib-Workshop bietet Frauen einen kreativen Rahmen, in dem wir uns in unserem verschieden und doch gemeinsam Sein zelebrieren und dabei gegenseitig ermutigen, im Handeln unser Potential zu entfalten. \*\*\* Ich bin: Joana (sie/ihr). Musikerin. Kulturwissenschaftlerin, mit literaturwissenschaftlichem Schwerpunkt. Seit Februar 2024 in Ausbildung als Heilpraktikerin für Psychotherapie. Durch diverse positive Erfahrungen als Teilnehmerin von (Schreib)kreisen für Frauen sowie mit großem Interesse besuchten Seminaren und Workshops offline und online, ist nun der Herzenswunsch entstanden, selbst auf lokaler Ebene - und in kreativer Gestalt - einen solchen Raum zu öffnen und leiten. Die amerikanische Sprecherin und Autorin Peggy Tabor Millin bringt meine eigenen Erlebnisse und Prozesse mit folgender Betrachtung auf den Punkt: "Wir müssen uns nicht selbst analysieren oder Erinnerungen hervorkramen oder an der Selbstverbesserung arbeiten. Wir müssen nur bereit sein zu lernen, wer wir sind und was die Tiefe unserer Seele wirklich ausdrücken will und muss. Während wir unser Schreiben in einem sicheren Kreis teilen, lernen wir, diesem Prozess und damit uns selbst zu vertrauen." \*\*\* Da die Plätze begrenzt sind, melde dich bitte an unter: transformativesschreiben@gmx.net \*\*\* Bitte mitbringen: \- Stift\(e\) und Papier oder eigenes Journal \- einen kleinen Gegenstand für den Kreis \(z\.B\. etwas aus der Natur oder von Bedeutung für dich in diesem Moment\) \- Warme Socken oder Hausschuhe \*\*\* Teilnahme auf Spendenbasis Dieser Schreib-Workshop bietet Frauen einen kreativen Rahmen, in dem wir uns in unserem verschieden und doch gemeinsam Sein zelebrieren und dabei gegenseitig ermutigen, im Handeln unser Potential zu entfalten.

**A Yin Yoga & Hypnosis Journey for Emotional Release** This 2-hour women’s circle is designed to gently soften those frozen places — in the body, the heart, and the nervous system. Through **long-held Yin Yoga postures**, we’ll invite the body to release stored tension and emotions. Yin works deeply with the connective tissues and the nervous system, helping us let go without force. From this grounded, open state, we’ll move into a **guided hypnosis journey**, allowing the mind to rest and the subconscious to release old patterns that are ready to dissolve. **WHAT THE 2 HOURS INCLUDE** **Yin Yoga for Emotional Release** Long, supported postures focused on hips, pelvis, spine, and heart — areas where women often hold unprocessed emotions. **Nervous System Regulation** Slow transitions, breath awareness, and stillness to move out of survival mode. **Guided Hypnosis Journey** A gentle, safe inner journey to: * release emotional stagnation * reconnect with inner warmth and clarity * create space for what wants to emerge next **Closing Integration** A short sharing or grounding ritual to help you return feeling clear, lighter, and more connected. **This circle is for you if:** * you feel emotionally or energetically stuck * your body feels heavy or tense * you want to release without talking too much * you’re craving softness instead of pushing * you want a gentle transition toward spring No prior yoga or hypnosis experience needed. **PRACTICAL DETAILS** * **Duration:** 2 hours * **Style:** Gentle, slow, deeply supportive * **Bring:** Comfortable clothes, a blanket, a journal (optional) * **Women-only space** Energy Exchange: 15 euros

Close your eyes. Reach out your hand. Pick four cards. Hand them to the reader. As the reader turns each card, curious symbols are revealed: The King. The Devil. The Hanged man. For each person the cards, and their combination confess a complex inner reality. Cartomancy goes back centures in recorded history. The Carte da Trionfi date to the 1400s. The Tarocchi or Taro date to the 1500s. Yet, the true history of what is know today as Tarot, is buried in the teeth of time. Whatever the cards are called, Jung and many of his students recognised that Tarot can bring out depths of the psyche in surprising ways. In this session, we will explore the Tarot and its relation to Jungian psychology. The session will be facilitated with the help of Jasmin Pront, a professional Tarot card reader. You can find more about Jasmin and her work at https://www.tarotbyjasmin.de/.

**👁 The third eye 👁** “*Opening the third eye” means integrating the right and the left. It means bringing together the judgement and discrimination which characterizes the left side with the openness and access to the intuitive world that characterizes the right. It means putting an end both to dry, sterile intellectualization as well as to superstition and “hunches.” It means bringing together these two partial, inaccurate ways of knowledge into an integrated whole that is more profound and penetrating.*” (Swami Rama) **The third eye is a legend - from the (infamous) tales of Lobsang T. Rampa protecting the Dalai Lama by means of clairvoyance - through the mental control centre from the yogic tradition - the myth of how Shiva burned down the God of Love Kama Deva with his third eye - to the stages of awakening and the relationship between heart and mind.** **Let’s share for an afternoon about what the third eye is, and how our practice, our aspirations and experiences might relate to it.** “*When Ma* [the Goddess Tara] *kisses you, though, She will kiss you on your forehead at the location of your third eye, which She causes to open. This is the kiss of enlightenment, the kiss of true Motherhood, and the day Ma gives you this kiss you become filled with Her Divine Intelligence.*” (Vimalananda) 💫 **What this event offers for you:** * Guided Meditations for arriving, calming the mind and tuning into your intuition * Meeting people interested in spirituality (all levels) * Safe Space for sharing - non-hierarchical and non-judgemental * Opportunity to ask just about any question **👀 You may watch one or few of the following Videos for inspiration:** * Sadhguru on "Opening the third eye": [https://youtu.be/b1AiG1a8ft0?si=J3eBFW7r6o_Tw7yd](https://youtu.be/b1AiG1a8ft0?si=J3eBFW7r6o_Tw7yd) * Sri M on "the third eye": [https://youtu.be/sDgL-jRHNXo?si=VC-N9xpXds7NKCK-](https://youtu.be/sDgL-jRHNXo?si=VC-N9xpXds7NKCK-) * Guru Viking Podcast on the infamous Lobsang T. Rampa aka Cyril Hoskin and his book "The third eye": [https://youtu.be/vOfs8Xo9yMg?si=oJu0ndtbl3A-HLFP](https://youtu.be/vOfs8Xo9yMg?si=oJu0ndtbl3A-HLFP) **🧘 About the Organizer** Martin is a certified Mindfulness Teacher, Systemic Coach, Yogi and Altruist by heart who teaches Meditation and Martial Arts in different formats. However, in this meetup Martin focuses on the altruistic intention to open a space for people to share while offering as much facilitation as needed in the moment. “*Trataka is a form of meditation in which one stares fixedly at an object. If done properly trataka can open the third eye. In Treta Yuga people use trataka to obtain prana from the sun; they eat with their eyes. They communicate with glances and make romance with significant looks. This ability exists together with telepathy, which is only possible after the third eye is opened.*” (Vimalananda)

Women's Yoga is a gentle, nourishing practice designed to support the health of the female body. The classes follow a cycle-aware approach, honoring the natural changes in hormones, energy levels, and emotional states throughout the month. Each session begins with a short guided meditation to settle the mind, followed by a soft, flowing yoga practice and a deeply relaxing closing rest. The movements and postures are carefully chosen to support the female organs, pelvic floor, hips, and lower body, helping to create balance, strength, and ease. This practice is intuitive and permission-based. You're invited to move at your own rhythm, in tune with your cycle and how you feel on the day. Breathwork plays an important role, supporting the nervous system and hormonal balance. Women's Yoga offers a space to slow down, reconnect with your body, and build a deeper sense of awareness, acceptance, and trust in your natural cycles. Come as you are. Bring your own mat or use one of ours. Please arrive 10 minutes early to settle in. The door will be closed once class begins, and late entry will not be possible.

Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a “window” to a result set when used in SQL queries. They are powerful, set-based methods to view data in unexpected ways. Window functions provide easy, set-based solutions to solve some common problems: * Using running totals * Performing operations in intervals * Identifying data gaps and islands * Performing aggregates without losing detail Many people are confused by window functions and do not know how to use them properly. This session will explore window functions, how they work, and how to use them. Demonstrations with several examples will solidify how window functions can simplify queries and make them more powerful.

Come join us for coffee at Matari Coffee to discuss our March book, "The Enchanted Greenhouse"! Book description: Terlu Perna broke the law because she was lonely. She cast a spell and created a magically sentient spider plant. As punishment, she was turned into a wooden statue and tucked away into an alcove in the North Reading Room of the Great Library of Alyssium. This should have been the end of her story . . . Yet one day, Terlu wakes in the cold of winter on a nearly-deserted island full of hundreds of magical greenhouses. She’s starving and freezing, and the only other human on the island is a grumpy gardener. To her surprise, he offers Terlu a place to sleep, clean clothes, and freshly baked honey cakes—at least until she’s ready to sail home. But Terlu can’t return home and doesn’t want to—the greenhouses are a dream come true, each more wondrous than the next. When she learns that the magic that sustains them is failing—causing the death of everything within them—Terlu knows she must help. Even if that means breaking the law again. This time, though, she isn’t alone. Assisted by the gardener and a sentient rose, Terlu must unravel the secrets of a long-dead sorcerer if she wants to save the island—and have a fresh chance at happiness and love.

We meet at lunch each week and each meeting follows a fairly organized agenda. First all participants pass their business cards around. Then each member and guest is invited to give a one-minute overview of their company and what is a perfect referral for the week. We always have a 10 minute presentation from one of the members about their business in more detail. And finally we pass referrals. You're welcome to visit. Nobody is ever put on the spot. Bring plenty of cards!

This, her mother has told her, is the only way to get a "louding voice" -- the ability to speak for herself and decide her own future. But instead, Adunni's father sells her to be the third wife of a local man who is eager for her to bear him a son and heir. When Adunni runs away to the city, hoping to make a better life, she finds that the only other option before her is servitude to a wealthy family. As a yielding daughter, a subservient wife, and a powerless slave, Adunni is told, by words and deeds, that she is nothing. But while misfortunes might muffle her voice for a time, they cannot mute it. And when she realizes that she must stand up not only for herself, but for other girls, for the ones who came before her and were lost, and for the next girls, who will inevitably follow, she finds the resolve to speak, however she can--in a whisper, in song, in broken English--until she is heard
