***There are always more participants coming as regulars or from other platforms than shown here...***
We invite you to join our weekly Evenings of Meditation, to gently meet yourself, dissolve stress and live life from beautiful inner states, like calm, joy and connection.
These gatherings are not just about meditating on your own, but a step inward we take together. Each time we’ll look into a particular topic in the light of timeless wisdom, reflect on it in a guided meditation, do powerful Oneness practices for greater wellbeing, and experience Deeksha - which helps to speed up your inner growth.
**This week's topic: Welcoming greater support in life**
Have you ever experienced moments in life when you felt deeply supported? Times when everything seemed to flow effortlessly, and a series of events moved you forward in unexpected ways. These are moments of great support in life - through people, coincidences, or even miracles. Let’s take a closer look at what helps us welcome greater support into our lives.

*Bring a friend for Free* A Sensual 5Rhythms Dance Journey
### **Summer Love - Bring a friend for free.**
I love the summer time and the way the sun extends the perception of day into the night. Late nights with friends takes on a whole new flavor during these summer months. So – for the month of June– **you are invited to bring your friend along (for free)** to share this precious space x dance together.
**✧ FOR YOU ✧**
Maybe you’re curious about eroticism as life force —
about playing with sensuality, clothing, and aliveness in a safe(r) space. Maybe you just love good music and want to dance outside the club.
CLOSER x-dance is for all who want to explore the meeting of movement, creativity x life force energy.
CLOSER x-dance is open to all, creating a safe(r) space for different horizons, sexual orientations and experiences.
***No previous experience required.***
**✦ WHAT IS CLOSER x-dance ✦**
CLOSER x-dance is a dedication to unshackling any chains that teach us to separate our inherent er-t\*c aliveness from the rest of ourselves. It is an invitation to embrace the sensual when it arises, to grant permission to our emotions, and to move with creative play in a spontaneous movement journey.
Guided by an eclectic wave of sound and inspirational prompts,
you’ll move through the 5Rhythms — five life energies that rise and fall like a wave.
✺ **Three ingredients shape each journey** ✺
✺ Celebration of you - Nothing to get "right"
✺ Invitations - Follow what feels true for you
✺ Presence - Dance becomes a meditation in motion
**⟢ CONTRIBUTION ⟣**
⟢ €15 \(Reduced\) \| €20 \(Regular\) \| €25 \(Supportive\)
⟢ Buy at www.samarlinn.com/events or cash at the door
**⋰ WHAT TO EXPECT ⋱**

**When & how?**
Saturday afternoon. Detailed time and place in our Telegram group.
Hop in, say hello, and we’ll share the final details.

Respect and Safety:
There is always at least one organizer present at every meetup. If you ever feel unsafe or bothered by someone’s behavior, you can reach out to an organizer privately. Your identity will remain confidential, your concern will be taken seriously, and no inappropriate behavior is tolerated — anyone making others feel uncomfortable will be removed from the group immediately.
We hope to see you there. Bring yourself, your smile, drawing materials, your stories—or just your comfy self.
Let’s make Saturday a little more laid-back, a little more social and a lot more nice.
See you soon!

Reading Party ☕️📚

**Event Info:**
Pausify is the **biggest community and most active** of book lovers and creatives in Berlin.
Impressions: Instagram: **[@Pausify (Co-Reading Space)](https://www.instagram.com/pausify_org/)**
Events happen every Sat and Sun at 11 AM.
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.
\- 11:00\-11:30 \- Meet & greet
\- 11:30\-12:30 \- Silent focus time
\- 12:30 \- Discussion of books/ projects over coffee
Afterwards, join for lunch if you'd like (optional).
**Drinks & snacks are included** ☕️
* **To reserve your place, a ticket (€9,90/event) or a community pass (only €17,90/MONTH) [from the website ](https://pausify.org/)*www.pausify.org* is required**
* **Attendance here doesn’t show all sign-ups from other platforms. We usually have about 50 to 100 people at each event.**
***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.

Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code - Alan Barber
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
*Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code*
Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs.
In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling.
The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options.
