Southbay Friends: Boardgames & More

If no one calls to confirm the day before, I will cancel the class. Please be sure to call me at 408 223-7776 land line or 408 449-6506 cell phone.

I will teach you about the true source of your stress, how to reduce stress, and how to react differently to the unpleasant events that you experience. I will help you to see that you are more powerful than your emotions. Then, we will practice the technique that you have just learned. You will practice letting go of the barriers to your success and you will let go of unpleasant emotions. Students often report that the pain has "melted away." I offer to give Reiki to students as we practice what we have learned. Reiki is optional. Some students become so relaxed that they fall asleep. Please check out "Reiki" on the internet before you arrive.

I hold the class no matter how few students attend unless no one signs up by 5 PM the day before. You might get a private session if no one else shows up. No fee at this time.

If Wednesday nights are difficult, you could suggest a time and date and if I am available, I will post an extra Meetup event. I am retired so I could hold the class almost anytime.

Wheelchair friendly. Please call if you need a ramp over the single step (six inch step).

I have been researching what causes stress and what to do about it for over thirty years. I wrote a book and began selling it in 1992. I edited it and reprinted it three times. I have been teaching Stress reduction classes for about ten years. I have helped many people with stress issues over the years. I hope that you will join us soon.

Let's play board games! As my usual games nights, we will meet at the Round Table on Redmond and Almaden Expressway in Almaden Valley. We will be in the room with the games from 3PM until 9PM but you are free to come and go anytime between those hours and order food at anytime.

I will bring an assortment of card and board games with a mixture of party games, word games, and strategy games. You bring your appetite, sense of humor, and any additional games you'd like to play.

We usually have around 15-20 people attend so we will certainly have multiple games going at once. We usually have both beginner-friendly easy-to-learn games and medium to complex strategy games going at the same time so all levels are welcome!

My 4 main rules:

1. Order at least 1 item off of their menu, even if it's a beverage or appetizer. Since they don't charge is to rent the room, it's only fair that we contribute to their business.
2. No Cards Against Humanity or any other games with vulgar language or content allowed at this event. (The room is not closed off and patrons in the main area can definitely hear us).
3. We must be done playing and packed up by their 9PM closing time.
4. Please be polite and respectful to other gamers

If you have trouble finding the place, call them at 1 408 997-2313.

Let's have some fun!!

5:00 PM Join our Vegan (you can skip the meat for one meal!) Potluck. If you don't know what to bring, bring fruit or a salad or just call me for suggestions (no eggs, dairy, mayonnaise, gelatin, or meat). Raw fruits and veggies are great! If you want to share your snack with the hostess, keep in mind that I have several food allergies (Wheat, cinnamon, green bell peppers, water cress, parsley, and chocolate) that might prevent me from tasting your tasty treats. I usually supply gluten-free spaghetti.

6:00 PM Let's play! We usually play games like "Ticket to Ride," "Splendor," "Transamerica," "Rack-O," "Cable Car," "6 Cubes," "Take a Chance," "Blokus," and games brought by you and others. Please bring your favorite game to share with us.

Schedule:

5:00 PM - Potluck
6:00 or 6:30 PM - board games
10:00 PM - Time to go home unless we are having too much fun!
