**Ice bathing together at Treptower Park and surroundings – regular & reliable ☀️❄️** Exact time and date - we schedule together! Meetup once a week! Hello everyone, I’m looking for a like-minded person (or a small group) who would like to go ice bathing together once a week on a regular basis – preferably at Treptower Park and the surrounding area. The day and time are flexible for me; what matters most to me is reliability and consistency. I’ve been ice bathing for several years and value this practice greatly: as an energising time in nature, as a shared act of overcoming oneself, and as something that is noticeably beneficial for both body and mind. For me, it has positive effects on health, sleep, and recovery – and it’s a wonderful way to start the next week feeling light, uplifted, and content. After four years, my previous ice-bathing partner is unfortunately no longer able to join, so I’m now happy to meet new people. I’m open and enjoy coordinating flexibly. If you already have experience, or if you’re curious and would like to try it out in a committed way, feel free to get in touch. I’m looking forward to the exchange and to arriving together in the cold water. Warm regards, Till

**Music Therapy & Systemic Psychotherapy** My approach integrates music therapy and systemic psychotherapy to support emotional expression, connection, and transformation. Through sound, improvisation, and dialogue, we explore inner experiences, family dynamics, and relational patterns in a safe and creative space. The sessions invite awareness, playfulness, and presence — allowing music to become both mirror and bridge between what is felt and what can be spoken. Whether through active musicking, deep listening, or verbal reflection, the process unfolds at your own pace, weaving together body, voice, and relationships as pathways to healing and growth.

**A place to meet sound, without maps** Facilitated by **Vesti Gium (they/them)** Everyone enters as they are. No score. No threshold of skill. We follow the room, moment by moment— listening, nudging, letting the music find itself. A breath, a shoelace, a laugh, a footstep— each carries weight. Silence is welcomed; noise is celebrated. There are no wrong directions here. We practise a listening that reaches outward and inward: to ourselves, to one another, to the space we shape together. That is where the music begins. * 🌀 Bring a voice, an object, an instrument, a movement—or nothing at all. * ✨ **Priority given to FLINTA folks and people with migration backgrounds.** * 🎧 No experience needed. Curiosity is enough. * 📍 Berlin – \[theodorstraße 5,12099] * 🗓 Every Wednesday 17: 30 * 📬 DM or email **[vestigium.impro@gmail.com](mailto:vestigium.impro@gmail.com)** to join Come make sound—come be heard.

**It's Time to Just Be.** When was the last time you intentionally gave yourself an hour just for you? Not scrolling, not working, not rushing somewhere — just **being with your own thoughts for a moment**. **About:** What we are creating here is a gentle space to slow down and take that time. We’ll gather in a cosy café atmosphere and share a quiet hour where everyone can reconnect with themselves in their own way, surrounded by beautiful **sound bath music**. You might journal, read, reflect on your week, think through something on your mind, or simply sit with a warm cup of tea and breathe for a while. Just a small pause in the middle of the week. **What will happen?** During the Perfect Me Time, we will gently **open the space with a short grounding meditation (10-15 mins)** to help everyone transition from the busy day into a slower rhythm. Throughout the quiet hour, **soft sound bath elements** will be played in the background to support relaxation and focus. This will be a mostly **silent time (approximately 45 mins)**, where everyone is invited to spend the hour in their own way — journaling, reflecting, reading, thinking, or simply sitting with a warm cup of tea. At the end, we will **close the session with a short meditation (10-15 mins)** before transitioning back into conversation. **What to Expect** 🌱 Arrival & soft landing — arrive, order a drink, and settle in ☕ Slow tea moment — a short grounding moment to transition from the busy day ✨ Perfect Me Time — quiet personal time to do whatever feels right for you 💬 Optional connection — at the end, those who wish can stay for a casual chat *(Please note that the flow is gentle and flexible. The goal is simply to create a calm space for yourself.)* **What You Can Do:** **✍️ Reflect & write** (journal, write thoughts, plans, or ideas, write a letter to yourself, etc. **🧠 Think & process** (reflect on your week, think through something on your mind, set intentions for the coming days, etc. ) **📚 Read** (read a book, something inspiring, revisit notes or personal writings, etc.) **🌿 Simply be** (sit quietly, enjoy tea slowly, breathe and relax, observe your surroundings, rest your mind) **🫶🏻 Gentle personal rituals** (listen to the sound bath, sketch or doodle, write gratitude notes, plan your week intentionally, etc) **What to Bring** • A notebook or journal • A book or something you’d like to read • Whatever you might need for your me-time • An open mind and a willingness to slow down *You are welcome to order tea, coffee, or something small from the café during the event to support the venue.* **Price** 💰 **This event is tip-based** — contribute what feels right for you (usually **10-25 EUR** is enough). **🕒 Agenda** *(Please note that the agenda is more of a guideline, not a strict rule.)* **18:30 – 18:40 Arrival & Settling In** Find the group, order a drink if you’d like, and slowly arrive. **18:40 – 18:50 Short Grounding Moment – Opening meditation** A gentle transition into the space and the beginning of your “Me Time.” **18:50 – 19:30 Perfect Me Time with a Sound bath – Silent time** Quiet personal time for journaling, reflecting, reading, or simply being. **19:30 -- 19:45 Concluding Moment – Closing Meditation** Closure time, reconnecting with your intention, slowly getting back. **19:45 – 20:00+ Optional Socialising** Those who wish can stay for a relaxed conversation and connection. **📍Location:** * We meet at the Iska Cafe at Kalckreuthstraße 7, 10777 Berlin. * Google maps pin: [here](https://maps.app.goo.gl/765XQTN8KBGv95gx9) * 🚇 **U1\, U2 Wittenbergplatz \|\| U1\, U2\, U3\, U4 Nollendorfplatz** * 🚌 **106\, 187\, M19\, M29 An Der Urania \|\| M46 Motzstraße** Just text me, and I will come meet you.

Why are we unhappy? Where does emotional pain come from? Studies show that people who suffer from long-term emotional pain have painful experiences in their lives that were never fully resolved in their mind. In other words, there were issues in the past that were not completely dealt with. This can include abuse in childhood, breakups, divorce, death of a loved one, to name a few. How do you know whether you have gotten over something painful? Here is an easy test: Do you still have attention on what had happened to you? For instance, do you still find yourself thinking about something painful that you went through? If you are, then you are not over it. In fact, in severe cases, people find themselves playing a "tape" in their mind over and over again. So how do you heal from your past? How do you stop the "tape" playing in your mind? In this meeting, you will learn a technique to help you with that. Come join us! Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology life improvement center.

We are recruiting new group leaders for virtual men's groups! Our primary groups are outdoor movement groups, but we are launching virtual groups for the state of Ohio and beyond and the groups will move outside in the spring, creating room for men's groups, women's groups and coed groups all over the country. Read below to learn about our groups and click the links at the bottom to apply. ### **What is an Outdoor Empowerment Group?** Our Outdoor Movement & Community Empowerment Groups are simple, guided experiences designed to help people reconnect with nature, themselves, and others. We combine some form of movement (hike, walk, run, bike, yoga, workout) and meaningful conversation within a simple community circle to create a space where individuals can support each other while prioritizing mental and physical well-being. Whether you’re seeking stress relief, personal growth, or community, our groups offer everyone a unique and welcoming environment. ## **Why Join?** * **Improve Mental & Physical Well-Being** – Movement, nature, and supportive conversations reduce stress and promote balance. * **Feel Less Alone** – Build genuine connections with like-minded people in a safe, welcoming space. * **Gain Clarity & Perspective** – Step outside daily routines and into a space designed for personal growth and reflection. ## **The Ideal Group Leader** The ideal group leader * Has a born-in passion for mental health, movement, connecting with nature and building community. * Has 5 extra hours per week to dedicate to a meaningful cause for at least one year. Yes, you can leave any organization at any time and we can also ask you to leave, but we are building with legacy in mind and we need people who can commit and be ALL IN on this mission to build with us. * Is independently financially stable with the ability to volunteer with no expectation of pay. This is a deeply beautiful journey of service that all participants commit to at Speak Your Mind. * An ability to manage groups with high emotional intelligence and desire for human connection. * An ability to self-motivate and market/promote their group on Facebook and other social platforms. * Nature informed therapy or clinical therapists/psychologists a plus. ## **Our Impact**  Since launching, we have helped thousands find support, connection, and healing through our Outdoor Movement Groups. 100% of participants surveyed have reported: * A noticeable improvement in mental clarity and emotional well-being. * An increase in social connection and a sense of belonging. * Said they would return again. We believe mental health should be accessible, community-driven, and rooted in nature. Join us and take the first step toward a more connected, grounded, and supported version of yourself. ### **Why Our Groups are Donation-Based** Our Outdoor Movement Groups are made possible through a donation-based model. This approach allows us to keep our events accessible to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances, while also ensuring that we can continue expanding our reach. It’s a great way to pay it forward and support the growth of this beautiful mission! Every contribution helps us: * **Cover Essential Costs** – Donations allow us to pay essential legal, marketing, insurance, and admin costs as well as nourish the important people who run the organization. * **Grow Our Mission** – With your support, we can bring these healing experiences to thousands more people in the future and execute our long term plan to expand across the USA, affecting up to 500,000 people per year. By choosing to contribute, you’re not just leading an event—you’re helping build a mental health movement that supports long-term well-being and connection for all during a severe mental health epidemic. ## **Come Join Us!** We’d love to have you be part of this growing community of people prioritizing their mental health, movement, and connection. 🔹 **Visit Our Website to Learn More:** https://speakyourmind.men/joinusoutside 🔹 **Apply Here to Lead Your Own Group!** – https://form.jotform.com/taketimespeakyourmind/sym-group-leader-application 🔹 **Support the mission**: If you resonate with the mission and want to support, feel free to join a group before applying or donate to help us reach our goals to help more people!
