Berlin Sprachcafé. Learn and practise German easily (A1-A2)
The Language Café is primarily aimed at people who are struggling with their mental health which can make it hard to go to regular courses. We want to create a safe space for everyone to learn and practise without pressure. Everyone is welcome! Please try to be on time so we can all get started together :)
We mainly practise on a beginner/lower intermediate level and adapt to everyone's prior level of German.
The Language Café will focus on teaching you the most important words and phrases and basic grammar in German. The content of the course is adapted to real life. (everyday life in Germany, dealing with authorities, etc.) We will cover different topics every week and you can join us anytime, since the topics do not necessarily build on each other.
The Sprachcafé is for free.

Authentic Relating & Circling with Sophie and Marco
**Authentic Relating & Circling with Sophie and Marco**
Come and connect and learn the powerful practices of Authentic Relating and Circling. We normally do about a half-hour of Authentic Relating in paired-shares, followed by Circling in up to two breakouts, usually rejoining the large group at the end. However the program will change according to the experience of the participants at each event.
If you are not familiar with Authentic Relating & Circling, you can read Marco's book on the [Circling Guide](https://circlingguide.com) website. All events are beginner-friendly and no prior experience is necessary. If all goes well, you will feel that this is what you have been doing your whole life, and all you ever wanted was to be with people who share this way of being!

*Our Authentic Relating & Circling nights are fun and engaging. We hope to see you there!*
**\*\*Agreements & Terms of Service (Please read)\*\***
**Authentic Relating and Circling is not therapy**. People encounter states, emotions, beliefs, and sensations in themselves and others which can be difficult. We explore the unknown, the volatile, the ambiguous, as well as welcome emotions many deem as “negative” or “inappropriate” such as feelings of inadequacy, anger, sexuality, and joy.
We refer to the willingness to feel difficult and uncomfortable truths as the “commitment to connection,” which of course includes a willingness to set appropriate boundaries, and speak a desire for space, distance, and non-contact. By attending our events you take responsibility for your level of participation, which might include choosing to leave.
If all this sounds potentially overwhelming or destabilizing for you, if you have mental illness or significant emotional challenges that you feel may be exacerbated by this type of transformational environment, or if you are not sure that you can be self-directed in taking care of your needs during the event, then we advise you not to attend.
We look forward to seeing you!
Discover the 3.043 year old secret behind your DNA!
Yes it’s free. But please come only if you are ready.
The 22-Strand DNA Activation Used For 3,000 Years To Awaken Human Potential
For the first time a high level Initiate reveals the 3.034 year old method to awaken human potential.. this method is available to the public since 1997 and starts reaching the masses now! Humanity is ready!
Before that date people like Da Vinci, Tesla, Michelangelo, Pythagoras, Goethe, Beethoven and many more received the private opportunity to study these secrets.
There is a moment in every seeker's life when reading stops being enough.
You've done the books. The podcasts. The meditation apps. The therapy. Maybe even plant medicine, breathwork, yoga teacher trainings, retreats in distant countries.
And still — somewhere quiet inside you — that voice keeps whispering:
"There has to be more."
There is.
For 3,000 years, an unbroken lineage of teachers — traceable back to King Salomon the Wise — has guarded a precise energetic transmission known as the Life Activation. A 22-strand DNA activation that awakens dormant aspects of your divine blueprint. The same activation that has changed the lives of thousands of people across more than 50 countries.
On Thursday, in the heart of Berlin, I'm opening the doors for a free 2-hour evening to share what this path is — and what it has done for me.
---
What You'll Discover
— What the Life Activation actually is (and why every
Mystery School student receives it first)
— The lineage behind it — King Salomon, 3,000 years, 7 Mystery Schools worldwide
— How it works with your chakras, magnetic energy, etheric body, and elemental forces
— What people consistently report afterwards: clarity, vitality, release of inherited patterns, deep peace
— Why it bypasses the mind entirely — no belief required, no understanding needed
— Where this path can take you — Sacred Geometry, Kabbalah, Initiation, Healers Academy
— Live Q&A — ask anything
---
Who This Is For
You belong in this room if you:
→ Feel stuck despite trying everything — therapy, self-help,
coaching, retreats
→ Sense that there is more to life but cannot quite reach it
→ Are walking through a major transition — career,
relationship, identity, crisis
→ Want to begin a real spiritual path — not just read about
one
→ Feel drawn to ancient wisdom and lineage-based traditions
→ Are ready for change. Real change. Not more information.
You also belong here if you have zero spiritual background. You don't need to believe in anything. You just need to show up.
---
What This Is Not
Not a sales pitch dressed as a talk. Not a "manifestation" workshop. Not therapy. Not channeling. Not New Age improvisation.
This is ancient lineage work — the same teachings,
transmitted the same way, for three millennia.
---
Your Host
I'm Paul Schulz — Ritual Master in the King Salomon Lineage of the Modern Mystery School, based in Berlin, teaching in English across Europe. I received my own Life Activation in this city, and it changed everything. Now I share this work with seekers ready for the next step.

Endlich gehört
Du bist immer die Hilfsbereite. Nie unbequem, aber innerlich am Limit. Das ändern wir.
Du kennst das Gefühl: Du sagst Nein & plötzlich bist Du die Schwierige. Du gibst alles & bekommst kaum etwas zurück.
Du fragst Dich warum Deine Grenzen nicht respektiert werden, obwohl Du doch eigentlich gar nicht so viel verlangst.
**Du bist nicht zu empfindlich. Du bekommst zu wenig.**
In diesem Workshop schauen wir gemeinsam warum das so ist & Du gehst mit einer Struktur nach Hause die aus Dir selbst kommt. Nicht mit einer Checkliste. Sondern mit Klarheit darüber was Du brauchst & einem Rahmen der dazu passt.
Begrenzte Teilnehmerzahl: 10 Plätze
FRAUEN WUT Workshop: From breakup to breakthrough!
Wir haben uns entschieden den Workshop, der kommenden Sonntag stattfindet, auf deutsch zu halten:
🔥 From BREAKUP to BREAKTHROUGH: Von Trennung zu Durchbruch 🔥
Denkst du noch an deine:n Ex‑Partner:in?
Verlierst du dich in Gedanken daran, wie es hätte sein können – oder vielleicht noch sein könnte, wenn du oder die andere Person anders wären?
Obwohl die Beziehung vorbei ist, fließt weiterhin Energie dorthin: durch Hoffen, Grübeln, Ärger, Groll oder Bewertungen.
Fühlt sich das Loslassen wie ein endloser Prozess an?
Oder steckst du in einer „Situationship“, die sich nicht wirklich bewegt?
Wir kennen das.
Und es hat uns viel Lebensenergie, Zeit und Klarheit gekostet – und auch andere Beziehungen beeinflusst.
Deshalb öffnen wir einen Raum für Frauen\*, die in ihren Beziehungen eine echte Vollendung machen wollen – durch Schatten- und Wutarbeit.
Das ist ein radikal verantwortungsvoller Raum.
Wenn du nicht bereit bist, deinen eigenen Anteil anzuerkennen, ist dieser Workshop nicht für dich.
Es ist ein tiefgehender, transformierender Raum, um abzuschließen, was zur Vergangenheit gehört – und alte Emotionen und Energien zu klären, die dir heute noch Lebenskraft entziehen.
Hol dir deine Autorität zurück.
Nimm deinen Raum ein.
Gewinne deine Freiheit zurück.
Bist du bereit, keine Aufmerksamkeit mehr einer toten Beziehung zu schenken?
Bist du bereit, loszulassen und die Lektionen zu vollenden?
Dann sei dabei und erlebe deinen Durchbruch.
Mit Liebe und Wut,
Johanna & Thea

NVC & Boundaries
**NVC & BOUNDRIES**
***Weekend Workshop***
What a delicate human moment it is — the one in which someone says or receives a “no.”
“Can we make love?”
— No.
“Would you like to go for a coffee with me?”
— No.
“Would you like to work together?”
— No.
It takes such vulnerability to voice a request — to courageously share your heart and its dreams. And it takes just as much courage to stay true to yourself, not to please the other at the cost of your own authenticity.
So often we end up saying *yes* when we actually mean *no* — because we’re afraid of losing connection, or because “it’s the right thing to do.”
This weekend is an exploration of those delicate moments — their depth, their vulnerability, and the dynamics they reveal.We’ll begin by discovering our own boundaries and what truly matters to us, since so much confusion and pain arise when we don’t even know where our boundaries are.
We’ll learn to say *no* in a way that is authentic, safe, and connecting. We’ll learn how to receive a *no* without betraying the vulnerability that comes with it. We’ll learn how to transform the moment of giving or receiving a *no* from a wall into the beginning of a meaningful dialogue — one where *you can be you, and I can be me*, together.
“Words are windows, or they’re walls.” — *Marshall Rosenberg*
**Teaching Style**
Expect minimum 50-70% practice and exercises, demonstrations and other interactive ways to engage, and the rest it’s gonna be theory.
**When?** 6 -7 June 2026
Saturday & Sunday: 10:00 - 17:30
**Daily schedule:**
**Saturday** Arrival: From 9:30
Morning Workshop / Practice space: 10-13
Lunch: 13 - 14:15
Afternoon Workshop / Practice space: 14:15 - 17:30
**Sunday** Arrival: From 9:30
Morning Workshop / Practice space: 10-13
Lunch: 13 - 14:15
Afternoon Workshop / Practice space: 14:15 - 16:00
Financial Co-Responsibility Circle: 16:15 - 17:30
Goodbyes: Until 18:30
We’ll have organic breaks to support us through the schedule.
**Where?**
Braschzeile 12-14, 14109 Berlin (Wannsee).
For this 2 days workshop, we’ll be able to gather in the privacy and calmness of a house in Wannsee. A large garden with solemn old trees offers the grounding and space needed to gently move into the vulnerability to meet ourselves and each other at our boundaries and in the pain of where they’ve been crossed.
*It’s possible to sleep on site for a limited amount of people, priority it’s given to who comes from out of town.*
**Experience**:
No previous experience it’s required, everyone is welcome. The exercises will allow deepening the NVC practice even when you already have experience with it.
**Who is this for?**
Space is limited to a group of 14 people. As we want to create a safe container to also explore our hurting parts, we would prefer people to join for the full weekend flow. If you can’t join the whole thing contact us and we’ll see if it’s fitting for you to join only one day or a part of the workshop.
**Price?**
This event is neither charged, nor free.
We’re intending to create/ to play with a conscious systems-based approach to money and how it flows in between humans. We want resources to flow towards serving & nourishing life. As we are co-creating learning, developmental and healing spaces we want to care for what’s needed for people to attend as well as for what’s needed so that we can continue to co-create such spaces.
That’s why we’ll offer two systems of distributing (monetary) resources in between the people present in an attempt to make this event financially sustainable for everyone.
**About the food**
Lunches will be prepared in advance, let us know of any special food allergies

**YOUR FACILITATORS**
**Martina Pesce**
Hi, I'm Martina. I came in contact with Nonviolent Communication (NVC) through a relationship where I started to grasp the beauty of this tool. After 3 years of self-study and occasional practice, I was touched by how this communication allowed me to connect with my mum in conflict, so strongly that I felt love for her for the first time in 20 years.
Unsatisfied with the lack of mental health support in the neuroscience research field, I decided to switch careers and dive deep into NVC. I trained as a mediator, counsellor and trainer at the Connecting2life school (Yoram Mosenzon). It was a two-year-long process of embodying the tool and then learning how to transmit it so that it could sink in the body. For a year I've been holding my workshops, courses and 1:1 practice.
My approach is based on practice and embodiment. I found NVC very revolutionary and with that respect, I like to let sink in our system a few bits of info at the time, rather than an overwhelming waterfall of theory.
**Matthias Flury**
Hi. My name is Matthias. To be honest with you, I’m incredibly hesitant to write this short biography about myself. Part of the resistance comes from a fear of not being enough - it’s an insecurity that often comes alive since for many years of my life my need for connection wasn’t met, no matter what I tried. Out of this experience I’m shy to show and present myself, even to an unknown reader, to not go through the pain of rejection again. Another source for this hesitation is that I’ve got an idea of how I need to present myself here as a teacher. “I need to sell myself well and in a way that will make you trust me and curious to learn from me”. And I’m worried that I’ll try to perform as something I’m not in order to achieve that. Underneath the pressure of trying to be perfect I’m certain I’ll lose something incredibly important. I’ll lose connection to myself and with that any hope of actually contributing value to you.
That’s why I’ll start this introduction of myself like this. I’m looking forward to meeting you and exploring together how we can connect to our feelings and unknown desires. How we can hold space and lovingly meet each other exactly where we are in our authentic selves. This is the place where relationships gain intimacy and depth, where love grows and where life begins to make sense.
Just in case you actually want to know about my background: I started learning about NVC in 2019, took my first lessons with Empathie Stadt Zurich in 2020, and completed my education in 2023 with a course about teaching and embodying NVC by CNVC-Trainer Yoram Mosenzon. I regularly support NVC-teachers as an assistant in their courses and occasionally teach myself. If you have any questions you can reach me at [matthias.flury@mail.ch](mailto:matthias.flury@mail.ch).

\- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation?
\- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence?
You can!

How to Get Over Losses and Betrayls & Build Lasting Relationships
Join us for this free, in person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships.
Do you want more motivation and confidence to build lasting relationships?
Are you burdened by a stressful relationship?
Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse.
Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival, while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well.
Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship.
Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action?
Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships!
Break free from self imposed limitations
Here we will discuss:
• How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes.
• Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you?
• Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it?
• Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love?
• Fights & arguments - what's really behind them?
• What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others?
• How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change?
• Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them?
• How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about?
• How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career?
Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general.
Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person.
Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life.
We look forward to having you join us!
This class is held at the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
