Work-Life Balance

Not every meaningful encounter needs a big event. Sometimes connection simply happens because you showed up. This Social Butterfly Club Meetup is a relaxed Monday gathering for people who prefer real conversations over endless scrolling. A space to talk, listen, exchange stories, and experience Berlin through human presence instead of algorithms. Whether you’re new in the city, rebuilding your social rhythm, or just enjoy meeting thoughtful people in an unforced setting — this evening is for you. ✨ Suggested Ice Breaker Question: “What’s something small you’ve discovered in Berlin recently?” Orga This meetup is donation based.

Join us for our next meetup as we explore one of astrology’s core concepts: **The Houses.** The astrological houses are not energies themselves; instead they symbolise the different areas of life where we experience the planets in our charts, and generally show us where our 'issues' are. Come and help us make sense of this often-challenging idea. We'll be discussing the meaning of the houses in traditional and modern astrology; the importance of the four angles (ASC, IC, MC, DSC) as anchors of the house framework; and the theory of the 'ruling planets'. Are some houses more difficult to handle than others? Let's share our experiences. This will be an open, engaging dialogue designed to help us better understand how astrology works in our lives. Come share, listen, learn, and connect with the community. **Guidelines**: – Start: 18:30 sharp (arrive earlier if you like) – Please stay on the topic of astrology – Respect, warmth, and honesty are essential – Kindly RSVP in advance, as we need to confirm with the venue Warm regards, Finja, Maca, Sara & Julian *We collect a 5€ cash contribution on site to support the platform costs.*

A small NEXUS gathering built around movement rather than discussion alone. This is for high-bandwidth Mavericks who spend most of their time in conceptual thought and need some physical counterweight. Why bouldering? Because it’s deliberate: short problems, full focus, and immediate feedback. You’re on the wall, solving something tangible. The mental noise drops instantly! Conversations happen naturally in between climbs. No pressure, you move at your own pace. Some exchanges stay light. Others go deep. Both are fine. This is not about athletic achievement. It’s about presence, recalibration, and being around people who don’t require you to shrink or translate yourself. Come as you are. Try some bouldering problems. Rest when needed, and engage where it makes sense. **Bring comfortable clothes and climbing shoes if you have them (rentals are available at the gym).** *Registration equals commitment. If you sign up, you show up. Read the group description first and decide consciously. For context about NEXUS, visit our* ***[website](https://thenexusformula.com)*** *and* ***[newsletter](https://news.thenexusformula.com)****.*

**Ice bathing together at Treptower Park and surroundings – regular & reliable ☀️❄️** Exact time and date - we schedule together! Meetup once a week! Hello everyone, I’m looking for a like-minded person (or a small group) who would like to go ice bathing together once a week on a regular basis – preferably at Treptower Park and the surrounding area. The day and time are flexible for me; what matters most to me is reliability and consistency. I’ve been ice bathing for several years and value this practice greatly: as an energising time in nature, as a shared act of overcoming oneself, and as something that is noticeably beneficial for both body and mind. For me, it has positive effects on health, sleep, and recovery – and it’s a wonderful way to start the next week feeling light, uplifted, and content. After four years, my previous ice-bathing partner is unfortunately no longer able to join, so I’m now happy to meet new people. I’m open and enjoy coordinating flexibly. If you already have experience, or if you’re curious and would like to try it out in a committed way, feel free to get in touch. I’m looking forward to the exchange and to arriving together in the cold water. Warm regards, Till

Wir – Taia und Tatjana – möchten einen Raum öffnen. Einen Raum zum Ankommen, Kennenlernen und ehrlichen Austausch. Über Achtsamkeit im Alltag. Über das echte Leben zwischen Arbeit, Familie und Gedankenkarussell. Und auch über alles andere, was dich gerade bewegt. Was gibt dir Energie? Wo verlierst du dich? Wie bleibst du bei dir? Es wird kein Vortrag. Sondern ein lebendiges Gespräch. Ein Raum auf Augenhöhe. Komm einfach, wie du bist. Taia and Tatjana would love to open a space. A space to arrive, connect and share honestly. About mindfulness in everyday life. About real life between work, family and busy thoughts. And about whatever else is present for you right now. What gives you energy? Where do you lose yourself? How do you stay connected to yourself? No lecture. Just a real conversation.

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.
