FLOW Meditation - an active, fun & expansive shared auditory experience Schedule 19:00 – Doors open, meet and greet, snacks & drinks 20:00 – Session Start, explanation, warm up & first round - planting seeds 21:00 - Short Break & Then second round - deepening the roots 21:30 - Closing, feedback, chill out 23:00 – End Flow is a state of being… an experience when you allow yourself to be 100% fully engaged in the present moment in a feedback loop between clarity and satisfaction. It is an undeniable sensation where things seem to be more effortless, pleasurable, in sync, and you can easily sense a connection with something greater than yourself; this is what we will create…: • a connected and mindful meditation where it is possible to blissfully surf the cutting edge of the present moment together… • a game where it’s possible to feel excited and calm in the same moment, and everyone can win as much as they like… Scott Bolden, founder of Das Baumhaus Berlin will share some very easy, practical and effective methods developed during the last 12 years of facilitating these sessions. Within 20 minutes participants learn to use the common sound space to create resonance in the form of improvisational music where it is quite common to experience some real flow moments… All of the session is done with eyes closed to avoid visual distractions and keep focus on the co-created sound space. • no experience with meditation or music is needed to participate and enjoy Entrance at the door: €20 Audio samples • [https://soundcloud.com/.../flow-vocal-meditation-spring...](https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fuser-164945673%2Fsets%2Fflow-vocal-meditation-spring-2023-real-magic-with-11-strangers%3Ffbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHkAIhcVmTyCq9IOEoXjKFCeIKeQkFhfTo1AMXpFxXqMT8MHpUrHTQFJ2aFBR_aem_79yaFhXmfnLJE77nWQlmyA&h=AT3DcPo9_IbGHKE3o5OKe12TOM95OO_fmBd8wc_R50S2YMVig4WI2tBo-ax5cTPzApnxu7H_5dIVw1piiHGQRq2TQgEKEMHhnGfAe3-mxuySWYsJ1HPgrsSFxSwYHCERTYeoq1hsWiV2MtYGipAgO5hMfbQysBVublo&__tn__=q&c[0]=AT2bNN4uRimqcDJgmIN7TyAuHZJCceja0MZDDPUmV60ppYYScFYGLJJdi2sNf4ek8r97Xf4v3bWUAa5vdedfUqqEfxzoTa4DRaAhADfmYljw_tmvlu1VxRIOpgBMdJzRXwCQUVv_kTJpnS5EGDd1G_p2FzFvDhlY8Ag) • [https://www.baumhausberlin.de/.../11/19/proof-of-real-magic/](https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.baumhausberlin.de%2Fen%2F2019%2F11%2F19%2Fproof-of-real-magic%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHrdXU7RI38vP56mGxeDBtXC8gj17fVJGXRLe2ECRmtybehh4gT8u22tnDn5G_aem_0HkowrPW3WKUviMB-7a85Q&h=AT3NMpXZxbSLOUVU2xeBiOW9xsjCVSTGlbFp39o56LiTye3vK-CCRnd63vTUS0aWyVzwt4rTX_pbJYkOmHN0ERWgJdDD-xtMkdkmC-YeVzZ-TFk21Wq98pJJEDrTb3vDTMZwZ08RlAexxisDyqX466hgciKGCZXJ0DA&__tn__=q&c[0]=AT2bNN4uRimqcDJgmIN7TyAuHZJCceja0MZDDPUmV60ppYYScFYGLJJdi2sNf4ek8r97Xf4v3bWUAa5vdedfUqqEfxzoTa4DRaAhADfmYljw_tmvlu1VxRIOpgBMdJzRXwCQUVv_kTJpnS5EGDd1G_p2FzFvDhlY8Ag) • [https://soundcloud.com/.../improvisational-groove...](https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fdas-baumhaus%2Fsets%2Fimprovisational-groove-orchestra-baumhaus-23072017%3Ffbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHkAIhcVmTyCq9IOEoXjKFCeIKeQkFhfTo1AMXpFxXqMT8MHpUrHTQFJ2aFBR_aem_79yaFhXmfnLJE77nWQlmyA&h=AT0NXm5bCevOQda2Odm40e9DJuFCXMsSVTS8DOQ25zXSkzYB7eU3k7vzVcY6HXDOcnzvEaomQZ2SzWpIQRVEac501usw-BIkjetSYUx-yZRN9okSxKJlOUxCJf3-I-0OsQmwM7gCr1LdqevXC2MAgJLsiMa45sxUiig&__tn__=q&c[0]=AT2bNN4uRimqcDJgmIN7TyAuHZJCceja0MZDDPUmV60ppYYScFYGLJJdi2sNf4ek8r97Xf4v3bWUAa5vdedfUqqEfxzoTa4DRaAhADfmYljw_tmvlu1VxRIOpgBMdJzRXwCQUVv_kTJpnS5EGDd1G_p2FzFvDhlY8Ag) • [https://soundcloud.com/scott-bolden/ebb-and-flow-p2-edit-2](https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fscott-bolden%2Febb-and-flow-p2-edit-2%3Ffbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHp-G-Mo60REIr1iDhdIb3DVP0a_OX5IQQUhxEr5RAbNKreCaiqnIMKlg00me_aem_-bKQiefiQS-VKr4wNLpRPA&h=AT3p6CHoQWPgKUHII0AOS83Hc40yN4_a9GdikdtCuXduL3phzmrJSf8ncA0t8n5kiq2SoYVkRBhgyLD8mIHDteOiMFc3ohCiIcA4KR05FM0AAFyOWSJRiXbb2RL-qWWIcOgrk-5IoNljrrs7t2OU_V20xjhKrlouOzs&__tn__=q&c[0]=AT2bNN4uRimqcDJgmIN7TyAuHZJCceja0MZDDPUmV60ppYYScFYGLJJdi2sNf4ek8r97Xf4v3bWUAa5vdedfUqqEfxzoTa4DRaAhADfmYljw_tmvlu1VxRIOpgBMdJzRXwCQUVv_kTJpnS5EGDd1G_p2FzFvDhlY8Ag) • [https://soundcloud.com/scott-bolden/gently-flowing-through-a?in=scott-bolden/sets/ego-session-5-nov-13-2014](https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsoundcloud.com%2Fscott-bolden%2Fgently-flowing-through-a%3Fin%3Dscott-bolden%252Fsets%252Fego-session-5-nov-13-2014%26fbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHjMwdtxoKsQYzcGwoDKJ3owd9QOfaoIRizhmsjRJztXsftDEy699HB55LUTj_aem_yP-UOtXHWrWp0AVWLu9Okg&h=AT0jb--3GfJPxU8thY_AVyzK22IEOIWhbNtGZoke1g4Cw5B2tGJhGTWnhPkLADvul-LRQZNSeuAzc9WTYr4Rw9FM_EpO_xkgWBqP7Z86caHAu1wiqlfAfJMYXdNzTYu9Hq2JhpUrIiC6VDZlWefrncnWiJG_U3-4eqU&__tn__=q&c[0]=AT2bNN4uRimqcDJgmIN7TyAuHZJCceja0MZDDPUmV60ppYYScFYGLJJdi2sNf4ek8r97Xf4v3bWUAa5vdedfUqqEfxzoTa4DRaAhADfmYljw_tmvlu1VxRIOpgBMdJzRXwCQUVv_kTJpnS5EGDd1G_p2FzFvDhlY8Ag) Private session for groups and organizations are available upon request. contact – info@baumhausberlin.de [www.baumhausberlin.de](http://www.baumhausberlin.de/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHp-G-Mo60REIr1iDhdIb3DVP0a_OX5IQQUhxEr5RAbNKreCaiqnIMKlg00me_aem_-bKQiefiQS-VKr4wNLpRPA) Gerichtstr.23 Vh Eg 13347 Berlin

The holidays feel different when you have people to share them with — and that’s exactly what our Christmas Fast Friending evening is all about. Step into a warm, welcoming space where meaningful conversations happen naturally and new connections begin with ease. Join us for a relaxed night designed to help you meet wonderful new like-minded ladies & gents without pressure or awkwardness. Share stories, enjoy the festive mood, and walk away with friendships that make this season feel brighter. **You will need to buy a ticket for attending -** [https://berlin20thdec.eventbrite.co.uk](https://berlin20thdec.eventbrite.co.uk) \*You can use any debit or credit card to purchase your ticket at PayPal checkout. It will ask you for your email address but that is only to send you a receipt. You do not need a PayPal account.

Shruti will help you meet other members in a small group and help you settle down and get comfortable. All attendees are also welcome to bring a lady friend along with them for free. This will make it a lot less stressful for you as you will always have your friend alongside. \- From 6\.30 to 7\.30 pm\, we will start 'Fast Friending' where our host will ask you to speak to a different attendee every 3 minutes\.

*Bring your curiosity, open heart and presence to this special dance journey that brings creativity to our life force energy* ### **✦ WHAT IS Magical x-dance ✦** This is a special 5Rhythms Dance. It is an intentional space for each and every one of us to open up to the possibilities and magic that the "new year" might have to offer us through the dance. ***No previous 5Rhythms or other experience is required.*** As the year draws to a close, we will honor all that has come to pass and welcome the unknown of new beginnings – the magical space of intentional co-creation in the empty space. What sensations would you like to call in? What stories would you like to weave? What mystery are you seeking to let in? These are the open ended, curious questions we will take into the 5Rhythms map, exploring life’s 5 essential energies. To support this theme, we’ll include a little something special / different as part of our dance together. **You are invited** (of course, not required) **to bring an object with you to place on an installation to evoke magic and/or abundance into 2026!** ζ 3 ingredients shape each journey ζ ζ Celebration of you - Nothing to get "right" ζ Invitations - Follow what feels true for you ζ Presence - Dance becomes a meditation in motion **⟢ CONTRIBUTION ⟣** ⟢ €15 \(Reduced\) \| €20 \(Regular\) \| €25 \(Supportive\) ⟢ Buy at [www.samarlinn.com/events](http://www.samarlinn.com/events) or cash at the door **⋰ WHAT TO EXPECT ⋱** ⋰ Entry from 19.15 - Please note entry after 19.45 isn’t possible. ⋰ Warm-up + Introduction ⋰ Guided music wave — move, release, reconnect ⋰ Take it further - open space after class to connect ⋰ No phones on the dance floor

Hey everyone! I’m organising a co-working + socialising session for all of us who like to work on something (e.g. our own project, freelance or remote work) but don't feel like sitting alone at home. 🙂 To ensure that we have both **socialising** AND **working**, we will be using the so called “Pomodoro” technique: **50min of deep work** (silent), followed by **10min of break** to socialise. Then repeat! If you get into flow, you're also welcome to skip the breaks. It’s an effective way to stay focused - you can read more about it [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique). Anyone from any background is welcome, whatever project you are working on or whatever is your personal background. I (the host) speak English and German, so either is fine :-) ——————————————————- AGENDA: * **15min Intro** * Get to know everyone, talk about what you will work on today * **Pomodoro Session** (3x) - *Each Pomodoro session consists* *of...* * ...**50min** of uninterrupted “deep work” (no talking, no interruptions, no phones) * ...**10min** of break: share your progress with others, talk about what you are stuck on etc. * Repeat * Conclude and celebrate your progress Share your progress, socialise and get to know others 😊 ———— We'll be at the Social Hub Berlin (they have a food menu in case you get hungry). The structured part will end at 2:30pm, but you're welcome to stay longer, go for lunch together, or leave earlier. See you there 🩵 **\*\*We'll reserve the long table. Please update your RSVP in advance if you can't attend!\*\***

**Living in Color: Queer and Confident at 50+** with *Jörg Wellenkötter* for **GBTQ men\*** **[Free event with registration](https://wearevillage.org/shop/men50plus/w51-2025)** Queer people over 50 face a range of challenges in a society shaped by youth, physical attractiveness, and heteronormativity. Even within the queer community, there can be ageism, where older individuals are seen as less relevant or interesting. A lack of family structures or close friends can also lead to isolation in midlife. In this group, you’ll meet like-minded people who are also navigating the challenges of getting older. Here, we support and empower one another, share our experiences, and learn from each other. Together, we want to embrace the challenges of aging — and enjoy life to the fullest! **General information** **Language**: Depending on the group’s needs, sessions will be held in German and/or English. **Cost**: Free of charge, registration required. 🔵 #### Leben in Farbe: Queer und selbstbewusst mit 50+ ##### Queere Menschen über 50 sehen sich in einer von Jugendlichkeit, körperlicher Attraktivität und Heteronormativität geprägten Gesellschaft mit verschiedenen Herausforderungen konfrontiert. Selbst in der queeren Community kann es „Altersdiskriminierung“ geben, bei der ältere Menschen als weniger relevant oder interessant angesehen werden. Auch der Mangel an familiären Strukturen oder Freund:innen kann in der Lebensmitte zu Isolation führen. In dieser Gruppe triffst du auf Gleichgesinnte, die sich ebenfalls mit den Herausforderungen des Älterwerdens auseinandersetzen. Hier können wir uns gegenseitig stärken, Erfahrungen teilen und voneinander lernen. Gemeinsam wollen wir die Herausforderungen des Älterwerdens annehmen – und das Leben in vollen Zügen genießen! **Hinweise** **Sprache:** Je nach Bedürfnissen der Gruppe auf Deutsch und/oder Englisch\*\*.\*\* **Kosten:** kostenlos mit Anmeldung.

**Caller: Gaye Fifer** **Band: Hot Coffee Breakdown** **Big Scioty Contra Dance** **temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!

This is a free, in person meeting. 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.

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.
