đŒđ§ Neurodivergent Co-working & Networking đŹđ
This **coworking and networking** meetup is for neurodivergent people to get our tasks/projects/work done and to connect with other neurodivergent, whether for focus work or just finding someone who understands what youâre working on.
**PLEASE READ THE EVENT DESCRIPTION BELOW:**
So we can be self-accountable for our own comfort.
**Location:** WerkrÀume inside Humboldt Forum https://maps.app.goo.gl/Jw5totHbQadfsJsE8
The **exact area** of WerkrÀume where we cowork will be updated in the **pinned comment on the event page**, as it is a public space and we cannot reserve a specific spot.
**How to find WerkrÀume:**
* **If you are starting from the Front Desk:**
Find the large escalator behind the front desk. Go up to the 1st floor (one level above ground floor).
* **If you are starting from the Humboldt Bistro:** go to the other building. Find the escalator and go up to the 1st floor (one level above ground floor).
* **Final Destination:** On the 1st floor, look for the WerkrÀume sign.
**What to expect:**
* We usually use **[Pomodoro method](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique).** **When you are late** and the session has started, just take a seat and start working until break time.
* However, **feel free to work with how you are most comfortable with.** What's important is, we all become accountability buddies.

1. **This a public place so bring your sensory management tools (earphone, stim toys, etc).** We canÂŽt control the environment if there are other groups having their activities.
2. **The WerkrÀume can't be reserved** so we will all help each other by occupying the seats.
3. The place has wifi, locker and toilet.
4. The space has power plugs, but only in specific areas. Please ensure your devices are charged before coming.
5. **Food & drink:** there is a Bistro but pricey. Feel free to bring your own. **IMPORTANT:** No eating in the WerkrÀume. Use the public visitor seating instead.
6. **Bring a coin for the locker.** Security may ask you to store bags in the lockers outside the WerkrÀume.
7. **PLEASE EDIT YOUR RSVP if you can't come.** This helps us better manage the coworking session. Your update is much appreciated.
8. **All organizers are volunteers who are neurodivergent individuals.** We ask you to **be kind to us** and for your **support in making the event an enjoyable** for everyone.
**Till then busy bees!**

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

Seitai free group session
Come join us for a gentle yet powerful Seitai group practice â a space where silence, breath, and spontaneous movement meet. This is a donation-based event, so youâre free to contribute what feels right (from 0⏠to (your choice)âŹ).
âš What is Seitai?
Seitai (æŽäœ) is a Japanese practice that helps you reconnect with your bodyâs innate intelligence. Through subtle awareness and guided techniques, youâll be invited to:
Listen deeply to your body through Yuki (a meditative, hands-on practice of sensing and following the breath).
Release hidden tension with Katsugen â allowing involuntary, spontaneous movements to arise naturally.
Find balance in stillness and movement, letting your body recalibrate itself in surprising ways.
Seitai is not about control or forcing; itâs about giving voice to the movements your body has been waiting to express. Sometimes this brings ease, clarity, and lightness. Sometimes it stirs up dizziness, discomfort, or emotions. Every experience is valid â and you are always free to pause or leave at any time.
đ Why join?
Discover a practice that many find deeply transformative.
Create space for release, renewal, and vitality.
Explore in community, whether youâre a curious first-timer or already familiar with Seitai.
đ Practical details
Wear comfortable clothes and bring a towel and water to stay hydrated.
Bring openness and curiosity.
Watchers are welcome â you can simply observe, or dive into active practice.
The session is guided, but the real teacher is your own body.

đż Step into silence, breath, and spontaneous movement â your body knows the way.

Komm zu unserer sanften und doch kraftvollen Seitai-Gruppenpraxis â ein Raum, in dem Stille, Atem und spontane Bewegung aufeinandertreffen. Dies ist eine Veranstaltung auf Spendenbasis, du kannst also frei beisteuern, was sich fĂŒr dich richtig anfĂŒhlt (von 0⏠bis (deine Wahl)âŹ).
âš Was ist Seitai?
Seitai (æŽäœ) ist eine japanische Praxis, die dir hilft, dich wieder mit der angeborenen Intelligenz deines Körpers zu verbinden. Durch subtile Achtsamkeit und angeleitete Techniken bist du eingeladen:
*Tief auf deinen Körper zu hören durch Yuki (eine meditative, praktische Ăbung des ErspĂŒrens und Folgens des Atems).
* Verborgene Spannungen mit Katsugen zu lösen â indem du unwillkĂŒrlichen, spontanen Bewegungen erlaubst, ganz natĂŒrlich zu entstehen.
*Balance in Stille und Bewegung zu finden, wĂ€hrend sich dein Körper auf ĂŒberraschende Weise selbst neu ausrichtet.
Bei Seitai geht es nicht um Kontrolle oder Zwang; es geht darum, den Bewegungen eine Stimme zu geben, auf deren Ausdruck dein Körper gewartet hat. Manchmal bringt dies Leichtigkeit, Klarheit und Entspannung. Manchmal wirbelt es Schwindel, Unbehagen oder Emotionen auf. Jede Erfahrung ist gĂŒltig â und es steht dir jederzeit frei, eine Pause zu machen oder zu gehen.
đ Warum teilnehmen?
* Entdecke eine Praxis, die viele als tief transformierend empfinden.
*Schaffe Raum fĂŒr Loslassen, Erneuerung und VitalitĂ€t.
* Erkunde die Praxis in der Gemeinschaft, egal ob du neugieriger AnfÀnger bist oder bereits Erfahrung mit Seitai hast.
đ Praktische Details
*Trage bequeme Kleidung und bringe ein Handtuch sowie Wasser mit, um hydriert zu bleiben.
* Bringe Offenheit und Neugier mit.
*Zuschauer sind willkommen â du kannst einfach nur beobachten oder direkt in die aktive Praxis eintauchen.
* Die Sitzung wird angeleitet, aber der wahre Lehrer ist dein eigener Körper.

đ„ Schau dir ein kurzes Video an: https://youtu.be/KF7agFE1zss?si=6UhmjwaIAfBo-_Op
In diesem Video [00:16] wird Seitai als eine japanische Kulturform beschrieben, die den Organismus wieder in Ordnung bringt (âSeitaiâ bedeutet âKörper in Ordnungâ). Es basiert auf der Beobachtung der natĂŒrlichen Lebensenergie und nutzt Bewegungen wie Katsugen Undo [00:32], um die VitalitĂ€t zu fördern.
đ Lies mehr ĂŒber Seitai: https://seitaibarcelona.com/what-is-seitai/
Jeder ist willkommen, egal ob du völlig neu bist oder Seitai bereits kennst. Bringe bequeme Kleidung und einen offenen Geist mit.
đ° Diese Veranstaltung basiert auf Spenden, um den Raum zu unterstĂŒtzen und es uns zu ermöglichen, dieses Angebot weiterhin aufrechtzuerhalten. Private Einzelsitzungen sind ebenfalls zu einem erschwinglichen Preis verfĂŒgbar.
đż Tritt ein in die Stille, den Atem und die spontane Bewegung â dein Körper kennt den Weg.

CBusData: The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI
The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI
One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again.
We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all.
Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.
Free In-Person Meeting: Get Over Losses & Betrayals, Build Lasting Relationships
This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships.
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 âpin the blameâ on someone or something. If you donât 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, donât 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 youâve 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:
âą How to âeraseâ the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isnât always repeating past mistakes.
âą Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you?
âą Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it?
âą Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love?
âą Fights & arguments - what's really behind them?
âą What underlies âcorrosive criticismâ or the need to invalidate self or others?
âą How one can stably change oneâs outlook on life so they can affect positive change?
âą Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them?
âą How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about?
âą How to enhance oneâs own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or oneâs 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 âstoredâ and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can âeraseâ 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 âtoxicâ personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you wonât 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!
