Struggling with task paralysis at home? Overwhelmed by a growing to-do list? This specialized, structured coworking experience is designed specifically around how neurodiverse brains actually operate. That's why there is a 30-minute arrival buffer. Time blindness is real, being late is normal, so just show up without the guilt and experience true belonging.

The Productivity Strategy:
This event utilizes the power of body doubling—the proven practice of working alongside peers to minimize executive dysfunction, reduce distractions, and build a natural sense of shared accountability.

The Setup:
Inspired by the pomodoro method, the afternoon is divided into intentional, manageable 45-minute sprint intervals. To help the brain lock into the zone without feeling overwhelmed, each focus session features tailored ambient background soundscapes.

The Resets:
Instead of scrolling mindlessly during breaks, every 15-minute interval is a structured "brain reset." Participants are guided through simple mindfulness, light movement, and sensory practices to disconnect guilt-free and fully recharge for the next sprint.

This is an ideal environment to crush targets, break the procrastination cycle, and work alongside an awesome community that completely understands the neurodiverse experience.

Where?
This meetup will be held at Norden Bar - a Nordic-themed bar which offers an assortment of beers, mead & liquors from all over Scandinavia, as well as several tabletop games and a giant log for Hammerschlagen!

When?
The gathering will officially begin at ~7:00pm and normally goes until midnight. However, members often arrive slightly earlier and might stay until the following day! You are welcome to join at any point and leave whenever you please.

Attendance:
Attendance can vary, but the number of people at the gatherings is normally somewhere between 20 and 40 metalheads! The group is comprised by a balanced mixture of longstanding members, semi-regulars and curious visitors.

Chats:
Get invited to our chat-groups by introducing yourself at one of the meetups! We currently offer an "official" chat for announcements, updates on events & organizing concerts, a "fun" chat for casual discussions & informal events, and a meme chat for silly discussions and somewhat thematic memes. You can join neither, some or all!

FAQ:
"How can I find the group?"
We normally reserve one of the larger tables at the bar and decorate it with a large black flag. If you still have trouble finding the group, feel free to approach the bartenders and they will point you our way. We also use name tags, so talk to anyone with a name tag visible and you are already part of the group!

"What happens if I arrive late?"
Nothing really. We will give you a warm welcome and introduce you to the others, no matter at which time you arrive 🙂

"What can I expect from these meetups?"
Think of a common "after-work meet & drink", but in a themed bar, with lots of band-shirts and metal music playing in the background. Guests normally show up, grab a drink and join a clique for a conversation.

"Do I need to be a hardcore metal fan for this meetup?"
Not really. The theme of this meetup is indeed metal music and most members do have a liking for it, but plenty others are more casual listeners or more into rock/punk/goth. We welcome all!
