Gatherings

We offer Gatherings of different length. The idea is not to withdraw from life to achieve another state of consciousness but to live life as it presents itself to us. The longer the Gathering, the calmer the mind, the clearer the view. That’s all.

Upcoming Gatherings

Mini Gatherings

UPDATE: We currently do not offer any mini-Gatherings. We are looking for a new location.
Take a deep breath and enjoy a break from hectic life in Berlin at our Mini-Gatherings in Berlin. Join us for two 30-min meditation sessions in our 90-min meetup, leaving with a refreshed mind and an experience you haven’t made yet. Check whether or not the Mini-Gathering is taking place as we occasionally have to cancel an event and don’t want you to stand in front of closed doors. The event will be held in both German and English.

About the Gathering

Typical Day

We will have about 17 dyads (=partner sessions) per day, with short breaks and different kinds of meditations in between. Meditation here means doing things with heightened awareness. There will be walking meditations, eating meditations, a short working meditation, and just staying in silence here and there. You will also have the possibility to do yoga or exercise or rest or meditate during the day. However, there will be no entertainment of any kind, so no books, drawing, journals or cell phones and such.

Important Note

Outside of the dyads we will all be silent, which also means there will be no physical contact or eye contact but also no distraction by media of any kind. It is about an experience of self with as little distraction as possible. If you have any questions or struggle with something, you can always talk to us, of course

About The Gathering

For most days you’ll work in dyads, meaning in couples with 9-16 other participants. For 40mins (duration of one dyad) you and your partner will give each other the following instruction: Feel who you are here and now. Partner A gives this instruction and then listens to partner B responding. Every five minutes, we’ll ring a bell and you change roles. Every new dyad you will change your partner. That’s basically it.

The cos for the week long Gathering lies at 700 EUR as of 2024. If you struggle financially, simply reach out to us. We’ll find a way to get you aboard.

The Gathering is a group for people who want to explore the question “Who am I?” in a supportive environment. There is no specific agenda or goal.
