Singen macht nicht nur Freude, es hat auch positive Effekte auf das körperliche und seelische Wohlbefinden. Ich lade Euch ein, zusammen zur Gitarre einfache Lieder zu singen – frei von Erwartungen oder Bewertungen. Wir treffen uns nicht, um zu üben, um besser zu werden oder um zu lernen. Wir lassen einfach gemeinsam unsere Stimmen erklingen, so wie sie sind. Jede Stimme ist willkommen. Wenn Du Lust hast, bringe auch gern ein Instrument mit! Vielleicht glaubst Du, nicht singen zu können. Ich bin davon überzeugt, dass alle Menschen singen können. Zum Singen geboren werden. Trau Dich. Probiere es aus. Teilnahme auf Spendenbasis. Ohne Anmeldung Ich freue mich auf Euch!

\*\*\*\*\*\* ***For address and more details see the website.*** \*\*\*\*\*\* **This time, we’re adding a little Christmas twist to the Pausify routine!** On December 19, our focus section will take a slightly more **interactive** form — alongside the usual calm atmosphere, we will be swapping the cold Berlin evening for food, crafts, music, drinks, games and very good company 🎄✨ Join us for an evening of **Glühwein**, **Christmas snacks**, **great company,** and **live music** by an international artist, meet lovely people & enjoy the Christmas atmosphere. Also, feel free to bring your favourite board games! PS: Prefer to keep it calm? Totally fine. If you’d rather just unwind and enjoy your usual quiet focus time at Pausify, you can do that too. The focus session and discussion round will still follow the same rhythm as usual, with a chance to share what you’ve been reading or working on. 💛 ***AND HOW DOES OUR REGULAR EVENT WORK? =>*** Bring along your **current book to read** (or something **creative** to work on 📚🎨🧵) and join us for this mix of a shared focus time + discussion. \- Meet & greet \- Silent focus time \(60 min\) \- Discussion of books/ projects over drinks **Drinks & snacks are included** ☕️ * **To reserve your place, a ticket (€9,90/event) or a community pass (only €14,90/MONTH) [from the website](www.pausify.org) is required** * **Attendance here doesn’t show all sign-ups from other platforms.** ***FAQ: Why does it cost money if I bring my own project?*** Because we rent a beautiful, central space for every event. Ever thought your monthly apartment rent was too high? Well, multiply that – that’s what commercial spaces in big cities like Berlin cost *per hour*. Of course, if all you want is just some quiet time, your home or a library is perfect. But if you’d like to focus & connect with others in an inspiring space – with drinks, snacks included – that’s what your ticket helps to cover. See pics from our events below - and on our Instagram: **[@Pausify (Co-Reading Space)](https://www.instagram.com/pausify_org/) ☕️**📚 **[Pausify Co-Reading Space Website](www.pausify.org/)** For questions, please contact us over [Website](www.pausify.org/) as this platform can have issues. Thank you! *Please note that photos and videos may be taken during the event and used for promotional purposes to highlight and share the experiences at our events. If you have concerns, don't hesitate to approach the event organizers before the event.*

The "classic" bookswap is simple: * We meet in a café and put the book(s) we brought down on the tables. * We browse and discuss the books with one another while sipping coffee or hot chocolate, or eating cake. * We write our names down on any books we’d like to take home (post-its and pens provided). * At the end of the evening, negotiate any books that are contended and take a new-to-you book home! Books/happiness shared are books/happiness multiplied! A Bookswap is 10 times better than a Book Club because you can talk about ALL the books instead of just one! This is a great way to give your books a new home and make room for new books: that book you feel guilty for not having read even though it's been sitting on your bedside table for the last 5 years, the book you liked but didn't love, the book you loved so much you want everyone to read it, the book you somehow own three copies of, that book you absolutely hated even though everyone else loves it, and so on. Moreover, you will meet fellow readers, get a new book or two, and several book recommendations. We’ve often had readers experience books they wouldn't normally buy and enjoy it. GROUP EXPECTATIONS for PLEASANT SWAPPING * Please bring a book! It's not that you bring one you take one, but do try your best to bring something. * Books stay on the tables, open for sharing, until you are ready to leave so that everyone can have a look. We are notably not first come first serve. Please wait until you are leaving to bag the book. * If two or more people want the only copy of a book, negotiate. Maybe one of you reads it first and then gives it to the others. Or perhaps they have found another book instead. Or leave it to fate and toss a coin. The best part: now you have found somebody whose taste you can really admire. In any case, please don't walk away with a book with several names on it without letting the others know. These negotiations are fun and easy, so don't shy away from a book because there's already a name on it, and feel free to put your name on as many books as you find interesting. It's not that you bring one you take one; you may take as many as you can negotiate. * Political discussions with consent: make sure the people you are talking to would like to have a political discussion with you. * Please respect this space as first and foremost a community for connecting readers over their love of books and reading, stories, and narratives of all sorts. Please be respectful of tastes and opinions. * If something is bothering you, please reach out to the organisers, and we'll do our best to resolve it. * Lastly, don't expect your book back. It will find a new home. If you love it, let it go. Major LANGUAGES (and genres) of this meetup: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian; Fiction, Non-Fiction, Serious Reading, Light Fun, “classics", Krimis, Booker winners, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Self-Help and more. You never know who can read what languages, and there's no accounting for taste. We are a delightful and international group of readers. We look forward to swapping with you

**Slow down! pause! and enjoy!** *Sensual Touch Lab Series* with ***Markus Kaufmann*** for GBTQ men\* **[Registration](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/sensual-touch/w51-2025/)** Members 15 € Not members 30 € Often we are just rushing through life and meanwhile missing out on the juicy little moments in-between – especially when it comes to intimacy & sex. So why not slow down and observe all the pleasant sensations when becoming sensual with yourself and others. Touch is an essential and transformative human experience. It has the power to reconnect us with our bodies, our desires, and each other. In this workshop, we focus on the revival of sexual energy as a natural, healing force, exploring how genuine touch can create meaningful and authentic connections. The invitation of tonight is to bring more attention to all our senses and learn to use some helpful keys in self-regulation when things are heating up & learn to play with all of it. Markus will therefore lead you through a flow of sensual touch experiences – first touching yourself before meeting other queer men\* in couple and group constellations. Always with the aim to keep your own control: SLOW DOWN! PAUSE! and ENJOY! **What is Sensual Touch Lab Series for GBTQ Men\*?** Sensual Touch Lab Series for GBTQ Men\* is a monthly workshop where we aim to create a space for sensual closeness and playful encounters. Embodied, somatic experiences that appreciate our full-bodied nature. Using sensuality as an approach to explore new ways of dealing with our own fears or patterns related to nudity, intimacy, and touch. We invite you to explore, communicate, and possibly expand your personal boundaries within a framework of mutual respect and consent. This opens up the opportunity to experience the power of touch, sensation, and non-verbal interpersonal connection. Each event will be a guided process, which will have a special touch depending on the theme and background of the facilitator\*, whether it be bodywork and touch, somatics and intimacy, or something else. These short workshops may include nudity, partner exercises or close physical interactions. **General Information** • This format is for all queer men\* / queer masculinities interested in experiencing touch in a safe(r) setting. • Please pay attention to personal hygiene. • Bring a sheet and towel to cover cushions, mats, or massage tables. • This event is also available at a reduced member price – but not part of the two-free-monthly-events benefit. • Concession tickets upon written request to events@wearevillage.org available 🔵 **Mach langsam! Innehalten & geniessen!** *Sensual Touch Lab Series mit **Markus Kaufmann*** für GBTQ Männer\* **[ANMELDUNG](https://wearevillage.org/shop/sensual-touch/w51-2025/)** Mitglieder 15 € Nicht Mitglieder 30 € Oft hetzen wir einfach durchs Leben und verpassen dabei die kleinen, prickelnden Momente dazwischen – besonders wenn es um Intimität und Sex geht. Warum also nicht einen Gang runterschalten und all die spannenden Empfindungen wahrnehmen, wenn wir mit uns selbst und anderen sinnlich werden? Die Einladung des heutigen Abends ist, mehr Aufmerksamkeit auf all unsere Sinne zu lenken und zu lernen, hilfreiche Schlüssel zur Selbstregulation zu nutzen, wenn es heiß hergeht. Und mit all dem zu spielen. Markus führt euch daher durch eine Sequenz sinnlicher Berührungserfahrungen – zuerst mit euch selbst, bevor ihr andere queere Männer\* in Paar- und Gruppenkonstellationen treffen könnt. Immer mit dem Ziel, die eigene Kontrolle zu behalten: MACH LANGSAM! INNEHALTEN & GENIESSEN! **Was ist Sensual Touch Lab Series for GBTQ Männer\*?** Sensual Touch Lab Series für GBTQ Männer\* ist ein monatlicher Workshop, bei dem wir einen Raum für sinnliche Nähe und spielerische Begegnungen schaffen möchten. Verkörperte, somatische Erfahrungen, die unsere Gesamtkörperlichkeit wertschätzen. Sinnlichkeit als Zugang, neue Wege im Umgang mit unseren eigenen Ängsten oder Mustern in Bezug auf Nacktheit, Intimität und Berührung erkunden. Wir laden dich ein, deine persönlichen Grenzen in einem Rahmen gegenseitigen Respekts und Einvernehmens zu erforschen, zu kommunizieren und gegebenenfalls zu erweitern. Dabei eröffnet sich die Möglichkeit, die Kraft von Berührung, Empfindung und nonverbaler, zwischenmenschlicher Bezogenheit zu erfahren. Jedes Event wird ein geführter Prozess sein, der je nach Thema und Hintergrund der Kursleitenden\* eine besondere Note hat, sei es Körperarbeit und Berührung, Somatik und Intimität oder etwas anderes. Diese Kurzworkshops können Nacktheit, Partnerübungen sowie körperlich nahe Interaktionen beinhalten. **Hinweise** • Dieses Format ist für alle queeren Männer\*/Männlichkeiten, die Berührung in einer einvernehmlichen, unterstützenden Atmosphäre erfahren möchten. • Bitte lege Wert auf persönliche Hygiene • Bringe zum Abdecken von Kissen, Matten oder Massageliegen ein Laken und ein Handtuch mit • Der Workshop wird auf Englisch durchgeführt. • Dieses Event ist auch zu einem ermäßigten Mitgliederpreis erhältlich – aber kein Bestandteil der zwei kostenlosen monatlichen Mitgliederveranstaltungen • Ermäßigter Zugang ist auf schriftliche Anfrage an: events@wearevillage.org möglich.
