# ElternRaum Ein Raum, in dem du dein Kind und dich selbst, neu verstehen lernst. **Du willst dein Kind verstehen.** **Wirklich sehen, was es braucht.** Und trotzdem gibt es diese Momente, in denen das nicht gelingt. In denen du vielleicht genervt bist. Überfordert. Vielleicht auch hilflos. Momente, in denen du nicht weißt, was gerade passiert. Nicht bei deinem Kind. Und auch nicht bei dir. In diesem Raum geht es nicht um „Quick-Fixes“ oder darum, dein Kind zu „reparieren“. Sondern darum, tiefer zu sehen, welche Dynamiken gerade wirken, in dir und deinem Kind; und was es gerade wirklich braucht. **Im ElternRaum schauen wir tiefer.** Wir schauen, wie du reagieren kannst und erforschen gemeinsam: – Was dein Kind dir mit seinem Verhalten eigentlich zeigt – Was dein Kind gerade wirklich braucht – Warum genau diese Situationen dich so herausfordern – Welche inneren Reaktionen in dir ablaufen und wie du aussteigen kannst. Denn oft geht es nicht nur um dein Kind. Sondern auch um dich. Anmeldung: https://melissa-macke.com/elternraum-berlin/

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

Du lernst in vier Stunden Shinrin Yoku kennen, um Burnout vorzubeugen, Stress zu reduzieren und im Einklang mit der Natur zu leben – mit deiner Natur! Du bist hier richtig, wenn sich dein Leben gerade so anfühlt: · Du bist permanent gestresst. · Du hast den Eindruck, kurz vor einem Burnout zu stehen. · Du arbeitest zu viel und deine Gedanken kreisen ununterbrochen. · Du schläfst schlecht oder zu wenig. · Du sehnst dich nach Natureindrücken mit allen Sinnen. · Du brauchst eine Gegenwelt zum Schreibtisch. · Dir würde eine Unterbrechung vom Hamsterrad gut tun. · Du suchst eine Gelegenheit, um endlich wieder einmal Ruhe zu finden und Stille zu erleben. · Du wünschst dir ein Instrument zur Entspannung in der Natur, das du überall anwenden kannst? · Oder willst du einfach mal eine ganz neue Erfahrung machen, um Kraft und Energie zu tanken? Dann lerne den Wald mit anderen Augen sehen, entdecke eine neue unbekannte Dimension und mache intensive, sinnliche Wahrnehmungen bei Shinrin Yoku Waldbaden. Tu dir nach einer anstrengenden Woche etwas Gutes. Du hast es verdient. Das Leben ist zu kurz, um es mit Stress zu verbringen. Schenke dir Zeit. Komm bei dir an. Vergiss den Alltag für vier Stunden und genieße außergewöhnliche Erlebnisse in der Natur, in der Stille, mit deinen Sinnen und in deinem Körper. Tauche mit Ritualen in die Stille des Waldes ein. Erlebe die transformierende Kraft des Waldes. Wir kommen aus der Natur, wir sind Teil der Natur und wir gehen wieder in die Natur ein. Deshalb verbinde dich gemeinsam mit diesem Lebenselixier. Wir bewegen uns bewusst: barfuß, langsam und auf verschiedenen Untergründen. Das Bad im Wald ist ein Erlebnis mit allen Sinnen. Du erlebst Rituale, die dich Altes loslassen und Neues erleben lassen: angeleitete Meditationen, Atem- und Achtsamkeitsübungen und mehr. Der Lärm in deinem Kopf, das ewige Gedankenkarussell, kommt endlich einmal zum Schweigen. Du kommst zur Ruhe und bei dir an und lernst naturverbundene Menschen kennen. Du entdeckst Grundzüge der Waldmedizin in Theorie und Praxis. Der Wald ist ein Meer an Molekülen, die deinem Körper und deiner Seele gut tun. In Japan ist längst bekannt: Waldluft ist Medizin zum Eintauchen. Der Shinrin Yoku Workshop schenkt dir Kraft und neue Impulse. Du wirst mit neuen Perspektiven ins anschließende Wochenende starten. Lass dich überraschen, sei offen, lerne naturverbundene Menschen beim Shinrin Yoku kennen. **Anmeldung:** Melde dich gleich zum nächsten Shinrin-Yoku Workshop am Freitag dem 5.

ENGLISH: **INNER GUIDANCE** **A Transformative Movement Workshop** **for all beautiful women / sisters** **Grow · Unfold · Integrate** The Inner GUIDANCE Workshop is an embodied journey into your inner knowing, wisdom, and clarity. Through free-form movement, dance, and gently guided impulses and intention-setting, you are invited to reconnect with your body as a source of guidance, truth, and trust. In a supportive and non-judgmental space, we move to alchemize inner obstacles, awaken joy in the body, express a freer, new version of ourselves, and return to our inner center. Gratitude becomes a shared practice, raising our frequency, cultivating unity within ourselves and with others, and opening us to authentic human connection—expressed through the language of our moving bodies and hearts. This workshop creates space to listen deeply to your inner knowing via the body in movement. You will be supported to just be you in the present moment, allowing and discovering change, strengthening self-trust. Besides dancing mostly for yourself there will be also some partner and group invitations in movement which you can join or not and some physical touch involved, of course all volunteerly. We will end with an relaxing integration time and little sound bath. No prior dance experience is required. There is no right or wrong way to move—only the willingness to connect with your inner compass: your body. Move towards your true self, guided from within. Come just as you are and wear comfortable clothing that allows free movement. **Energy exchange:** 20 Euro (normal), 15 Euro (reduced) The session may be held in German and/or English, depending on the needs of the participants. **Please register due limited spaces via email, PM, Meet Up message latest till Friday 05.06.2026:** EMAIL: soulbalance@mail.de I look forward to holding space for you.

Durch freie Bewegung, Tanz und sanft angeleitete Impulse verbindest du dich wieder mit deinem Körper als Quelle von Führung, Vertrauen und Wahrheit. In einem wertfreien und unterstützenden Raum bewegen wir uns, um innere Blockaden zu wandeln, Freude im Körper zu aktivieren und eine neue, freiere Version von uns selbst auszudrücken – und in unsere innere Mitte zurückzukehren. Dankbarkeit begleitet uns dabei als Praxis, um unsere Schwingung zu erhöhen und echte Verbindung mit uns selbst und anderen über dem Körper und unserem Herzen zu erleben. Dieser Workshop schafft Raum, um über den sich bewegenden Körper tiefer auf deine innere Weisheit zu hören. Du wirst darin unterstützt, einfach du selbst im gegenwärtigen Moment zu sein, Veränderung zuzulassen und zu entdecken sowie dein Vertrauen in dich selbst zu stärken. Neben dem Tanzen für dich selbst wird es auch Einladungen zu Partner- und Gruppenübungen in Bewegung geben, an denen du teilnehmen kannst oder nicht. Dabei kann es auch zu körperlicher Berührung kommen – selbstverständlich alles freiwillig. Zum Abschluss gibt es eine entspannende Integrationszeit und ein kleines Sound Bath. \- Keine Tanzerfahrung nötig\. \- Kein Richtig oder Falsch\. \- Nur du\, dein Körper und dein innerer Kompass\. \- Bewege dich auf dein wahres Selbst zu – geführt von innen\.

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. \*If you cannot make it please cancel your participation so someone else from the waiting list can join, thank you!\* \| \| \| \|

Hello! We are organising a coworking + socialising session for all of us who are working on projects (e.g. our own creations, freelance or remote work) but don't feel like sitting alone at home. 🙂 🌟 This week's special: Get your chores done! Fill out those Finanzamt forms, setup your broker accounts or finally get dental insurance. Any other work is welcome too, of course 😉 To ensure that we have time for both socialising AND working, we will be using the so-called “Pomodoro” technique: **50 mins deep work** (silent), followed by **10 mins break** to socialise. And then repeat! You are welcome to join whatever your personal background is, and whatever project you are working on. I (the host) speak English and German, so either language is fine. ——————————————————- AGENDA: * **Short Intro** Tell us who you are and share something about what you will be working on today * **Pomodoro Session** \- 3x \(3h\) Each Pomodoro session consists of 50 mins focused “deep work” (no talking, no interruptions, **phones on silent mode**) -> then 10 mins break: a chance to share your progress with others -> Repeat * **15 mins Wrap Up** Celebrate what you achieved and get to know others 😊 ———— Wifi + power plugs are available - but best to bring a fully charged laptop, just in case 🙃 You **do not** have to pay anything. But since we are using the café space, it is common courtesy to buy at least one drink (coffee costs roughly **4 Euros**).

A time to make signs, pack swag bags, and have fun together in anticipation for the Pride festivities the week after.

This is an in-person meeting. Would you like to know the Real You, not just a shadow of yourself? Does your life energy feel somehow trapped within? Does your self-confidence get easily shaken? Do you get in the way of your own goals? We will discuss the real source of all this, what holds you back in life, and how to handle it so you can achieve more successful and happier living. Perhaps you get weighed down with negative emotions you can't seem to shrug off. Or find yourself doing strange and irrational things - not really being yourself. We will cover why that is and tools that work to help you unearth your self, your self-confidence and motivation. This meeting will help you learn about how to effectively overcome: -Out-of-control unwanted emotions -Low self-esteem -Anxiety -Negativity -Stress -Irrational fears -Traumatic or painfully emotional incidents -Breakups -Betrayals -Feeling like you're not really yourself -Self-doubt... We will discuss how to unleash the inner you and tap into your true potential. So come to this online meetup! This meeting is sponsored by the Hubbard Dianetics Foundation of Central Ohio

June 17, 2026: Worthington Library. Wild Ohio: The Best of Our Natural Heritage. Jim McCormac. Worthington, Ohio. 7 pm.

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.
