We can host ~100ppl outside in the garden and max 40 ppl inside. I'll keep you updated here in the comments if place is getting too full. We might go to the park nearby!

Ring at "Wäldchen, Rodenhauser". Flat is 3rd floor on the right, but we'll probably hangout in the garden outside at first/all of the time.

To ppl living in Berlin: It would be great if you can bring picnic plankets and everything else one might need sitting outside in a garden! Thanks :)

This is amazing! Reading this made me very happy and more hopeful for the future!

Awesome stuff! I can highly second the "loving kindness meditation in front of mirror towards yourself" meditations! I had some of the most impactful meditations of my life this way!

I love it! Someone shoukd make a YouTube video or even a movie or some other media about it!

I do find summaries of audio, especially podcass, extremely useful!

This sounds like a great stuff for a startup idea/(effective) entrepreneur ship. But It's probably not a good idea for a cause area. Public perception would be a problem.

I highly second the "longer meditation sessions" thing since I had a similar experience.  I feel like many people are giving up on meditation too early, saying "it doesn't do much for me", without ever really having tried it.  I spent one year meditating for 20 minutes each day. It probably did make me happier, but not in a dramatic way. Then I went on a 10-day silent meditation retreat and started meditating 1+ hours a day for a while and got dramatic benefits to the point that I feel like picking up meditation is by far the most impactful thing I've ever done to improve my well-being.

Well, but of course not everyone is in a position to meditate that much.
