Women’s Coaching Circle 💔 Using a Breakup as a Catalyst for Growth
**A breakup can feel destabilizing and painful, but it can also become a powerful moment for reflection, learning, and personal growth.** This women coaching circle offers a supportive and trauma-aware space to explore how you can use your breakup as a turning point rather than something that defines or limits you.
**❣ Please read all details! ❣**
This is a guided coaching space with a clear focus on self-reflection, insight, and forward movement. Participation is always voluntary. You choose how much you share, and listening is a valid form of participation at all times.
Through mindful reflection, structured group coaching, and practical tools, you will be supported to:
🌿 gain perspective on your breakup and its impact
💛 recognize patterns, needs, and inner resources
🌅 identify concrete ways to grow, rebuild confidence, and move forward with more self-trust
There is no pressure to revisit painful details or to share personal stories unless it feels supportive for you. The intention is not emotional release, but conscious understanding and empowerment.
**This women’s circle is about clarity, self-responsibility, and learning how to turn a challenging life transition into an opportunity for growth.**
🌞 **About the Spaceholder**
This circle is guided by Isabel, a holistic mindfulness and life coach with many years of experience supporting individuals and groups through life transitions. Her approach is grounded, trauma-aware, and practical. Isabel combines mindfulness, emotional awareness, and coaching tools to help her clients gain clarity, strengthen self-trust, and move forward with intention and presence.

**[free event with registration](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/buddyprogram-meetup/w11-2026/)**
Welcome to our second “we are village” Buddy Program event. Buddy Program is a community project that helps queer people in Berlin find a supportive community to navigate the city, discover hidden gems, and build genuine friendships.
At this welcome event, we will introduce our Buddy Program and we will provide you with an opportunity to meet other queer people who share your interests and passions.
We will have some fun games and provide room for genuine connections to form.
**More about the program**
The Buddy Program was created for queer people living in Berlin. Whether you’re new to Berlin or a long-time local who loves sharing your city. Or if you’re already settled but you’d like to “step up” your relationships and engage on a deeper level. The Buddy Program values deep connections, meaningful conversations, and community care.
By combining in-person meetups, online interaction through the **we are village** app, and interest-based matching, the program creates a space for mutual support, deeper connection, and a sense of solidarity.
**I’m not a new arrival to Berlin but I’d love to share my tips and tricks about Berlin!**
Everyone, regardless of their experience, is welcome. Our first goal is to connect people.
**General information**
Language: This event will be in German and/or English depending on participant needs.

Willkommen zu unserem zweiten „we are village“ Buddy-Programm-Event. Wir werden einige lustige Spiele spielen und Raum für echte Verbindungen schaffen.
**Mehr über das Programm**
Das Buddy-Programm wurde für queere Menschen in Berlin ins Leben gerufen. Egal, ob du neu in Berlin bist oder schon lange hier lebst und deine Stadt gerne mit anderen teilst. Oder vielleicht bist du bereits angekommen, möchtest aber deine Beziehungen vertiefen. Das Buddy-Programm schätzt tiefe Verbindungen, bedeutungsvolle Gespräche und Gemeinschaftspflege.
Durch eine Kombination aus persönlichen Treffen, Online-Interaktion über die we are village App und interessenbasiertem Matching schafft das Programm einen Raum für gegenseitige Unterstützung, tiefere Verbindungen und ein Gefühl der Solidarität.
Ich bin zwar kein Neuankömmling in Berlin, aber ich würde gerne meine Tipps und Tricks über Berlin teilen!
Jeder, unabhängig von seiner Erfahrung, ist willkommen. Unser erstes Ziel ist es, Menschen zu verbinden.
**Hinweise**
**Sprache**: Dieses Event wird je nach Teilnehmerbedürfnissen auf Englisch und/oder Deutsch sein.
**Kosten**: Die Teilnahme ist kostenlos.
Widersprüche beherbergen
Widersprüchlichkeit hat einen schlechten Ruf, nach außen hin sollen oder wollen wir kohärent erscheinen. Und trotzdem sind wir meistens doch irgendwie widersprüchlich, zumindest wenn wir ehrlich mit uns sind.
Wir sind mutig und ängstlich, klar und verwirrt, großzügig und kleinlich. Wir wollen Nähe und gleichzeitig Rückzug, Veränderung und Sicherheit.
Am Dienstag wollen wir diese widersprüchlichen Impulse wahrnehmen, ihnen Raum geben und sie nicht bewerten. Wenn wir unseren Widersprüchen freier begegnen, können wir flexibler reagieren und zugleich mitfühlender mit uns selbst und mit anderen werden.
Wer möchte dabei sein?
Ich freue mich auf Euch!
Die Gruppe gibt es schon seit einigen Jahren, im Schnitt sind wir zu sechst bis acht. Fühle dich jederzeit herzlich willkommen, auch nur mal zum Schnuppern!

Philosophischer Stammtisch - Für Nicht-Philosophen ohne Stammtisch-Niveau
* *For English, please see below*
Der Philosophische Stammtisch ist für alle, die gerne über das Leben philosophieren wollen ohne dabei zu verbissen den Fragen auf den Grund zu gehen. Wir wollen gemeinsam zu neuen Einsichten kommen und einen Raum schaffen für Menschen, die sich auf tieferer Ebene austauschen wollen. Die Fragen können von tiefen metaphysischen Fragen bis zu praktischen Lebensfragen reichen. Diese Veranstaltung soll gerade auch die ansprechen, die sich über solche Fragen Gedanken machen und sich austauschen wollen. Das hier ist kein politischer Diskurs.
**Das Thema für diesen Abend**
Wird bald bekannt gegeben.
**For our English speaking members**
We will have one table where the discussion is in English and you are welcome to join :)
**Topic**
Will be soon announced.
Zen Buddhism Events This Week
Discover what is happening in the next few days
Session #1
This is the first gathering of the *Embodied Dissociation* meetup. The idea is simple: a small group of experienced meditators meeting outdoors in Berlin for structured, silent practice followed by discussion.
The meeting place is **Volkspark Prenzlauer Berg**.
The session will follow a fixed sequence with automatic timers:
10 minutes mettā, 20 minutes samatha, 30 minutes vipassanā.
After the sit, there will be time for informal knowledge exchange—sharing observations, techniques, and approaches to practice.
Bring something to sit on and dress for the weather. The format assumes prior meditation experience and the ability to sit quietly for the full duration.
Calm and Clear - Buddhist Meditation in English
Meet like-minded people, get authentic meditation instructions and hang out in our beautiful Buddhist meditation center in the west of Berlin!
The practice of meditation is a simple, yet profound practice that helps us to connect with ourselves and gives us tools to release experiences of distraction, agitation, and stress. In the Buddhist tradition, meditation is more than just a way to end the mind´s distraction - it is what helps us to bring our mind home to its true nature.
What better way to experience the colourful facets of meditation than with a group of like-minded people? Hence our open meditation sessions always have a social element as well - we like to have a tea and share about our meditation experiences, or whatever else we want to explore. There is also always the chance to ask questions to our experienced meditation instructors.
These sessions are held in English and open to everyone - complete beginners as well as those with more experience.
The sessions are every week on Friday at 17:00-18:30.

Chitta Walks - Awareness in Motion
Chitta Walks is for people whose days move fast, while the mind never fully lands. Thoughts keep looping even when nothing is urgent. The body moves, but attention is elsewhere. Over time, this disconnect drains clarity and ease.
This walk is a simple reset.
We meet in Berlin’s Tiergarten and walk at a gentle pace. Parts of the walk are in silence, with light guidance and a few short prompts. The walk itself is the practice, bringing body and mind back into the same moment.
No apps. No performance. Just a clear space to slow down and notice what is happening.
If you want to slow down without withdrawing from life, join a Chitta Walk.
✨ **What to expect (approx. 90 minutes):**
* A short arrival and orientation
* A guided silent walk (phones off, no conversation)
* One concise science-based impulse on attention or stress
* Optional reflection in pairs or small groups
* A simple takeaway or experiment for daily life
🚶**Who this is for:**
* Professionals, creatives, and people in transition.
* People who feel mentally busy and want more clarity and balance.
* Those curious about mindfulness, but grounded and practical.
* Anyone comfortable with silence and gentle self observation.
🔔 **Practical notes:**
* Duration: 60-90 minutes
* Wear comfortable shoes and weather-appropriate clothing
* No prior experience needed
* Group size is limited to keep the space quiet and focused
🧭 **Facilitator:**
My name is Partha Sarathi, you can call me PS. I have lived in Berlin for over 12 years. With a background in physics and materials science, my interest in mindfulness grew through personal experience with stress and health challenges. I facilitate the space and structure of the walk, inviting shared exploration rather than instruction.
🤔 **Why Chitta Walks?**
Chitta is a Sanskrit word referring to the mind or field of awareness, used here in a practical, non-religious sense.
Chitta Walks is about noticing how the mind works by slowing down and walking together. Mindful walking makes thought patterns visible in real time, while moving and sensing in the world.
The name points to a simple capacity: noticing what is happening in the mind without immediately trying to fix, judge, or optimize it.
🌿 **Possible effects:**
A calmer nervous system.
Clearer attention.
A felt sense of being more present in your body.
Subtle insights into how your mind reacts under everyday conditions.
A quieter, more grounded way of moving through the city.
**Come as you are. Walk. Notice. Leave with a little more space inside.**
