From the very beginning, I have immersed myself in a spiritual women’s group, which has been a profound source of support and growth. Yoga and Tantra Yoga have brought incredible balance, harmony, and a deeper understanding of myself, truly transforming my life. Throughout my journey with the traditional integral Yoga system, I’ve learned practical ways to bring calm and balance into daily life, even in challenging times. Completing my Tantra Yoga for Women Instructor Training was a turning point, as it allowed me to blossom in ways I hadn’t thought possible. Being surrounded by a nurturing sisterhood showed me the immense power of women uplifting one another, and I now feel called to share this path with other women who seek similar transformation. In this **Tantra Yoga for Women** group, I am excited to lead you through these teachings, helping you connect deeply with your feminine energy and support your blossoming into fullness and joy. Together, we’ll create a safe and sacred space where you can embrace your own potential, find balance, and build bonds with a supportive community of women. I look forward to sharing this journey with you! **Price per month** Normal: 30,00 € ***Note:*** Over Meetup you can only sign-up for the first month for 10,00 €.

Join us for the **Berlin DevOps Summer Meetup**: our last edition before the summer break! We're excited to be hosted by **Parloa** for an evening of interesting talks, discussions, and networking. There will be food and drinks provided, and plenty of time to connect with fellow DevOps enthusiasts. **📌 Please register at least 24 hours before the event.** We need to share the attendee list with the Parloa office in advance, and **spots are limited**. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **Agenda** 18:30 Open Doors, Networking with Food and Drinks 19:00 Welcome words by Parloa and BLN DevOps team 19:25 **Running K8s with AI: Automating** **the SRE Lifecycle with Grafana MCP and GitLab** 19:50 **The Pipeline Was Green — AI Agents and CI Trust** 20:15 Short Break 20:30 **Managing Uninvited Guests: Securing Open Source Dependencies** 20:55 Networking 21:30 Closing ➡️ Interested in hosting an event?

This talk walks through a practical demo of automating the full SRE lifecycle: from incident investigation to deployment validation, using Grafana MCP and the GitLab Agent Platform, and where humans still need to stay in the loop. *Serhii Vasylenko* **The Pipeline Was Green — AI Agents and CI Trust** We’ve spent years building CI/CD pipelines that tell us when code is "technically correct," but are they capable of telling an autonomous AI agent if a change is safe to apply? This talk explores a real-world incident where an AI-powered automation -- pairing Renovate with Claude Code -- successfully executed a "green" pipeline that broke a critical QA cluster for three days, how the team reacted, and how we evolved our vision toward the future of human-agentic collaboration with code. *Frithjof Hoffmann* **Managing Uninvited Guests: Securing Open Source Dependencies** Open source software is the ultimate neighborhood party, but what happens when an uninvited guest slips through the door? This talk digs into the messy reality of dependency hell and its role in software supply chain security: from typosquatting attacks to maintainer account takeovers, and the abandoned projects with known CVEs quietly living in your codebase rent-free.

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. --- The Details 📍 Berlin — see above 🗓 every second Thursday 💶 FREE (limited seats — registration required) 🎙 Language: English 🎁 Bonus: open Q&A --- Reserve Your Seat The question is not whether you have time. The question is whether you can afford to keep living the way you have been living.

Only 1% of Venture Capital reaches all-female teams. Nina Wöss is on a mission to change that. ### Gender-diverse and and all-female startups receive just 9% of all venture capital according to the latest Female Founders Monitor 2025 published by Start-Up Verband Germany and Bertelsmann Stiftung in 2025. These numbers have not changed much in the last 10 years. New ideas are needed to change a system that is not leveraging all its potential. Creating new specialized venture funds is one solution. In this session, Nina Wöss—Managing Partner of the VC Fund F tells us what motivated her to found a venture capital fund specializing in gender-diverse founders only. Fund F writes cheques of up to EUR 600k, acts as lead investor, and brings an active follow-on policy—backed by a team of entrepreneurs, investors, and operators who provide hands-on support and connections to their portfolio companies. Nina will also pull back the curtain on how VCs actually think and what they look for. She previously founded the Female Founders Community with 83.000 members all over Europe and is a leading figure in Austria’s VC Scene. #### 💡 What you will learn * What **VC funds in general and Fund F** in particular **looks for in early-stage startups** and how to get on their radar * Why **gender-diverse teams outperform** all-male teams * **Concrete steps** you can take today to **strengthen your fundraising position** This event is brought to you by **SIBB Incubator**, who supports founders building the future of cybersecurity, trustworthy AI, and deep tech. #### 🧑🏻‍🏫 Speaker **Nina Wöss - *Managing Partner, Fund F*** * **Founder** and **Managing Partner** of **Fund F**, Austria's first VC fund specifically for female and gender-diverse founding teams * **Co-founder** of **Female Founders Global** (since 2016), one of Europe's largest communities for female entrepreneurs * **Former Principal** at **Speedinvest** * **Former COO** at **AVCO** (Austrian Private Equity & Venture Capital Organisation) * MSc in **Strategic Management**, WU Vienna * **Active in the startup ecosystem** since 2012 ***Moderated by: Etta Dannemann in her role as head coach.*** Etta Dannemann moderates the event in her role as Startup Coach at the SIBB Incubator.

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.

It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Here is the secret of being positive and free: Thinking positively is not enough. You also have to get rid of the negative thinking. Your mind is like a garden. You can plant many beautiful flowers in it, but if you don't get rid of the weeds when you plant your flowers, the weeds will soon take over the whole garden. A positive thought is like a flower in your mental garden, and a negative thought is like a weed. You cannot expect to have a positive mindset if you continue to have negative thoughts dwelling and growing there. So, how do you get rid of the negative thoughts? That's what this Meetup is all about. Attend this local meeting and find out! The Meetup event will be led by a consultant who had helped many people live happier in life.
