Webinars

The course will start this Saturday at 10am. It will be in studio R at CCB studios. [https://maps.app.goo.gl/rFovxE7eG7HV6uB46](https://maps.app.goo.gl/rFovxE7eG7HV6uB46). Buzz for CCB studios and then walk through to the second courtyard. We will try to start right around 10. There will be tea available. Please dress in comfortable clothes, maybe wearing a few layers. Theres some blankets, yoga mats, cushions and chairs in the room that you can use. The plan will be for us to do some small discussions at the top and then start discussing theory before doing some meditations of increasing length and then closing with some time for Q & A. We will take a short break in the middle as well. The plan is to go from 10-12 roughly but we may end a little closer to 11:30 depending. This week will function primarily as a simple introduction to meditation and some topics in the space but we will also discuss what the Jhanas are. Looking forward! Any questions please just message me.

**(Event in German) Bitte beachtet, dass wir auf verschiedenen Wegen einladen, es werden also mehr Menschen teilnehmen, als ihr hier seht.** Egal wie alt wir sind – Alter beschäftigt uns: Wir denken selbst darüber nach, oder werden ständig daran erinnert. Fühlen wir uns älter oder jünger, als wir sind? Vermissen wir es, 16 zu sein oder freuen wir uns, immer reifer und sicherer zu werden? Machen wir uns Sorgen, für unser Alter nicht genug erreicht zu haben, oder fragen wir uns, ob wir unser Leben gerade mehr genießen sollten? Da wir alle mit diesen Gefühlen und Fragen nicht allein sind, wollen wir sie gemeinsam erkunden, indem wir Antworten auf eine einfache, aber tiefgründige Frage sammeln: „Wie fühlt es sich gerade an, in meinem Alter zu sein?“ Wenn wir Glück haben, nehmen Menschen aus verschiedenen Generationen teil, sodass wir über Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede sprechen können: Wie fühlt es sich heute an, 25, 35, 55 oder 75 zu sein? ACHTUNG ANDERE LOCATION UND ZEIT: Dieses Event ist Teil der Veranstaltungsreihe „Das Diskussions-Experiment in der Bibliothek“. In dieser Reihe sind wir in der Mittelpunktbibliothek Schöneberg zu Gast (🥳) und probieren dort gemeinsam neue Methoden, um Diskussionen interessant, inspirierend und entspannt zu gestalten. Anders als üblicherweise treffen wir uns diesmal an einem Samstag um 13 Uhr. **Die Teilnahme ist kostenlos!** Weitere Informationen findest du in den FAQs weiter unten. Schreib uns gerne, wenn du Fragen hast. *(Bild erstellt mit Open AI)* +++++++++ **FAQ** ***Was kann ich von dem Event erwarten?*** Jede Veranstaltung ist ein Experiment, daher ist es schwierig, genau vorherzusagen, wie sie verlaufen oder sich anfühlen wird. Wir versuchen in jedem Event eine entspannte und anregende Atmosphäre zu schaffen, in der wir verschiedene Aspekte und Perspektiven des Themas gemeinsam erkunden. Zu Beginn der Diskussion werden wir spezielle Spielregeln einführen, die das Gespräch langsamer, aber auch fokussierter und klarer machen sollen. ***Für wen ist dieses Event gedacht?*** Diese Veranstaltung richtet sich an alle, die sich für das Thema und/oder das Konzept interessieren. Wir möchten einen Raum schaffen, in dem sich Menschen jeden Alters, jeder Identität und jeder Herkunft willkommen fühlen. ***Muss ich aktiv mitdiskutieren, oder kann ich auch nur zuhören?*** Es ist völlig in Ordnung, nur zuzuhören. Du kannst jederzeit selbst entscheiden, wie aktiv du sein möchtest, und wirst, abgesehen von einer kurzen Namensrunde, nicht aufgefordert, etwas zu sagen. Möglicherweise gibt es jedoch Kleingruppen-Phasen, d. h. kurze Abschnitte, in denen alle Teilnehmer\*innen in Gruppen von 2-3 Personen diskutieren. Du musst daran nicht teilnehmen, sondern kannst die Zeit stattdessen für eine Pause nutzen. Du musst nichts vorbereiten, keine starke Meinung haben und auch nicht extrovertiert sein, um teilzunehmen. ***Wie lange dauert die Veranstaltung?*** Die Veranstaltung dauert zwischen 1,5 und 2 Stunden. ***Ist der Veranstaltungsort rollstuhlgerecht?*** Ja. Dieses Event findet in der Mittelpunktbibliothek Schöneberg statt und ist somit rollstuhlgerecht. Das ist leider nicht immer der Fall, da wir an verschiedenen Orten veranstalten. Bitte prüfe daher am besten immer die FAQs vor deinem Besuch. ***Was ist das "Diskussions Experiment"?*** Das Diskussionsexperiment ist eine Veranstaltungsreihe, in deren Rahmen wir kontinuierlich Methoden testen, die sinnvolle und inspirierende Gruppengespräche ermöglichen. Unter anderem experimentieren wir mit Techniken, die Diskussionen verlangsamen, Klarheit fördern und die Teilnehmer dabei unterstützen, besser Gehör zu finden. Weitere Informationen findest du auf der [Webseite](https://diskussions-experiment.de/en/home/). Dieses Projekt wird von Maria Scholze und [Igor Don](http://www.linkedin.com/in/igor-don) organisiert.

An invitation to soften, slow down, and listen within. Through grounding movements, mindful breathing and guided reflection, this class creates space to reconnect with your body and nervous system. We begin with an intentional asana practice to awaken the body and build awareness from the inside out. As the practice unfolds, mindful movement and conscious breathing will support you in tuning into your emotional and physical state with greater clarity and presence in the now. The body holds stories, sensations, and emotions while the nervous system often guides how we experience them. This class offers a gentle space to regulate, reflect, release, and reconnect. Guided reflections are woven throughout the practice to support deeper self-awareness and integration. You’re welcome to journal, simply reflect internally, or engage in whatever way feels supportive to you. Please bring a journal and pen if you’d like. https://www.eversports.de/org/activity/0374c592-0743-4067-a6bf-7f1e47b11b1c

**For those who read the book and those who haven't yet – both are welcome.** *"Our children are less cognitively capable than we were at their age."* That's the opening claim of [The Digital Delusion](https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/244813958-the-digital-delusion) by neuroscientist and educator Dr. Jared Cooney Horvath backed by a synthesis of over 21,000 studies. What does it mean? For most of the 20th century, IQ scores rose with each generation ([the well-documented Flynn effect](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flynn_effect)). Around the year 2000, that trend reversed across much of the Western world. In countries where traditional schooling remained largely intact, it didn't. We were told that classroom technology, worth $ 400 billion, is the future of education, but Horvath argues it is not. At the same time, [Salman Khan](https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/196848520-brave-new-words?ref=nav_sb_ss_1_10) – founder of Khan Academy – believes AI could be the great equaliser in education: a personal tutor for every child, regardless of background. Both can't be entirely right. Which parts of each argument will prove to be true? This June, Human Future Hub brings together humans interested in education, technology, parenting, policy-making and curious minds to explore one of the most consequential and least settled debates of our time: **what is digital technology actually adding to how we learn?** We'll present the key ideas from both books, so you don't need to have read them to join the conversation, but it would be great if you do. Come with your questions, your experience, and your honest opinion. 📅 Saturday, 6 June 2026 📍 Location to be revealed 🎟 Find out more about **Human Future Hub** at: [humanfuturehub.org](http://humanfuturehub.org)

Welcome to Sunday Tech Coffee. This is a **networking** event for those in the tech industry in Berlin. We are usually inside and to the right. Ask the barista/bartender if you can't find us.

This hike goes straight through the Nuthe-Nieplitz nature reserve, a bird watching paradise with a boardwalk and watchtowers. So bring your binoculars to spot the eagles! Around halfway, we'll stop at a café for some food and cake in the village of Stangenhagen. Continuing uphill along Blankensee with some views on the lake, we enter a little oak wood with some remains of a demolished tycoon's mansion. After crossing a desert-like peak of Löwendorfer Berge, the hike ends in the town of Trebbin, where trains depart every hour back to Berlin. Meet us in the **first car of the train RE7**, departing from **Alexanderplatz station at 10:08 on platform 2 (direction Dessau),** **arriving at Michendorf (Mark) at 10:50, then taking the Bus 608 at 11:01 to Rieben (Dorf)** Unless you are subscribed to the Deutschlandticket, you need to buy a ticket to Rieben (Dorf). Please note: * As a grown-up, you are responsible for yourself. * Come prepared for wet and windy weather. * Wear appropriate footwear, we may come across some muddy sections. * Forecasts predict a slight chance of rain. * Bring enough water, food and some cash with you. * Please be fair and only RSVP if you are sure you can make it and update if your plans change. See you on Sunday!

*There are always more participants coming as regulars or from other platforms than shown here* \-\-\- We invite you to join our weekly Evenings of Meditation, to gently meet yourself, dissolve stress and live life from beautiful inner states, like calm, joy and connection. These gatherings are not just about meditating on your own, but a step inward we take together. Each time we’ll look into a particular topic in the light of timeless wisdom, reflect on it in a guided meditation, do powerful Oneness practices for greater wellbeing, and experience Deeksha - which helps to speed up your inner growth. **This week's topic: Access solutions more easily** Sometimes, when we face a problem or feel hurt, we tend to analyze it until we become exhausted. There is so much knowledge available that can help, yet for some reason, trying to apply it while in a state of stress often leads to greater disconnection or unsatisfying results. For example, you may say all the psychologically "right" words, yet the wall between you and the other person remains. Let's explore what can help us dissolve conflicts and move into a deeper connection. For more info see: [www.onenessberlin.com](http://www.onenessberlin.com/) 🎟️ **Entry**: € 10 for walk-ins (in cash or PayPal) just for us to pay for the space or **[get a ticket from € 5 >](https://momence.com/l/dah4nwad)** 📍**Where**: Yoga Sky, Am Tempelhofer Berg 7d, 10965 Berlin Follow the Yoga Sky signs in the yard, and take the elevator to the top floor. 🗓 **When**: Sunday, 7th of June, 19:00 - 20:30 Please arrive 5-10 min earlier to settle down. You’re welcome, no matter your background or experience. This is what has worked for us over many years and we love to share it with you. Looking forward to see you, Oneness Berlin Florian & Jazgul

**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose** Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap. Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn: * Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge * How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change * Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction * How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work. **About Our Speaker** [Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.
