*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: Access solutions more easily** Sometimes, when we face a problem or feel hurt, we tend to analyze it until we become exhausted. There is so much knowledge available that can help, yet for some reason, trying to apply it while in a state of stress often leads to greater disconnection or unsatisfying results. For example, you may say all the psychologically "right" words, yet the wall between you and the other person remains. Let's explore what can help us dissolve conflicts and move into a deeper connection.

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 Sonntag\, 7\. Juni 2026 \| 14:00–18:00 Uhr Beitrag: 65–100 EUR (nach Selbsteinschätzung) Ort: Berlin, Neukölln (Adresse nach Anmeldung)

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 “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 sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
