Ciao amici! Our meetup in Rome brings together friendly faces every Saturday at 7:30 PM. [[Click this WhatsApp groupchat link to join](https://chat.whatsapp.com/FzXKIQUFy6e0iG24XlTQUJ) ] We're mostly in our 20s and 30s, and we love a good chat Travelers, expats, and locals blend into a community that speaks all languages — especially kindness.

[italiano sotto] Let’s switch up the scenery! After a long work week staring at our screens, it’s time to get some fresh air, log off, and soak up the Roman spring sun (I looked at the weather - it should be sunny!) ☀️ Join us on Saturday, April 18th for a relaxed outdoor picnic at Parco degli Acquedotti! This is the perfect chance to chill out, enjoy the beautiful aqueduct views, and connect with other digital nomads, remote workers, and locals in a completely different setting. **🥖 How it works (Potluck Style!):** To keep things simple and communal, we are doing this potluck style! We ask that everyone brings something to eat or drink to share with the group so we can create a massive feast. * **Drinks:** Grab a bottle of wine, some cold beers, or juice. * **Food:** Bring some easy-to-share snacks like chips, pizza al taglio, focaccia, cheese, or fruit. * **Essentials:** If you have a picnic blanket or a portable speaker, definitely bring it along! **📍 The Details:** * **Where:** Parco degli Acquedotti * **When:** Saturday, April 18th * **Time:** From 3:00 PM (15:00) onwards **Finding us:** Parks can be big! I will share a live location pin in our [WhatsApp community](https://chat.whatsapp.com/EJlhZNnJCUADruVOIeb4Vp?mode=gi_t) chat on Saturday afternoon so you can easily find exactly where we are sitting. Feel free to bring a friend, but please make sure everyone hits **RSVP** so we know how big of a spot to claim in the grass! See you in the park! 🍷🌿 Cambiamo aria! Dopo una lunga settimana di lavoro passata a fissare gli schermi, è ora di prendere una boccata d'aria fresca, disconnettersi e godersi il sole primaverile romano (ho guardato le previsioni, dovrebbe esserci il sole!) ☀️ Unitevi a noi sabato 18 aprile per un picnic rilassante all'aperto al Parco degli Acquedotti! È l'occasione perfetta per fare un po' di *chill*, godersi la bellissima vista sugli acquedotti e conoscere altri nomadi digitali, remote worker e local in un'atmosfera completamente diversa. 🥖 **Come funziona (Stile "Potluck" / Ognuno porta qualcosa!):** Per mantenere le cose semplici e conviviali, lo faremo in stile "potluck"! Chiediamo a tutti di portare qualcosa da mangiare o da bere da condividere con il gruppo, così da creare un banchetto enorme. * **Da bere:** Prendete una bottiglia di vino, delle birre fresche o dei succhi di frutta. * **Cibo:** Portate stuzzichini facili da condividere come patatine, pizza al taglio, focaccia, formaggio o frutta. * **Indispensabili:** Se avete un telo da picnic o una cassa bluetooth per la musica, portateli assolutamente! 📍 **I Dettagli:** * **Dove:** Parco degli Acquedotti * **Quando:** Sabato 18 aprile * **Orario:** Dalle 15:00 in poi * **Come trovarci:** I parchi sono grandi! Sabato pomeriggio condividerò la posizione in tempo reale (live location) nella nostra chat della [community su WhatsApp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/EJlhZNnJCUADruVOIeb4Vp?mode=gi_t), così potrete trovare facilmente il nostro posto. Sentitevi liberi di portare amici, ma vi prego di far confermare a tutti la presenza (RSVP) così sappiamo quanto spazio occupare sul prato! Ci vediamo al parco! 🍷🌿

Golden Hour meetup! in colosseum! Make Friends in Rome!

Nella vita di ogni persona accadono delle coincidenze particolari. Questo evento si rivolge a coloro che sono curiosi di conoscere storie di coincidenze affascinanti e spesso miracolose. Avremo a disposizione dei libri che raccolgono decine di storie VERE di coincidenze. Sceglierò per voi le più belle. Tranquilli, nessuna noia: si leggono in tre minuti ciascuna! E le risate sono assicurate. Anche io racconterò le mie esperienze (non a caso ne sono molto appassionato) e daro' alcuni suggerimenti per avere qualche vantaggio. Ogni partecipante se vuole potrà farlo. L 'evento non ha scopo né di lucro né di vendita libri. Di solito possiamo occupare gratuitamente il tavolo della caffetteria; a volte basta consumare un semplice caffè. ( * Può sembrare una iniziativa strana, ma già anni fa il direttore di rai notte Gabriele La Porta raccoglieva le esperienze dei telespettatori, molte delle quali ha poi pubblicato in un libro).

\- Ti interessano le esperienze mentali profonde e ispirate? \- Ti capita di chiederti se finirà tutto con la tua morte o se qualcosa in te continui? \- Ti piace porti domande sul significato della Vita? \- Vorresti imparare qualcosa in più sul superamento della sofferenza? Sarà possibile sperimentare tecniche di *rilassamento muscolare*, di *distensione mentale*, esercizi con le immagini, ma soprattutto *esperienze spirituali condivise* che ci permettano di incontrare in profondità noi stessi e gli altri. Il contesto è del tutto **non-confessionale** e aperto a ogni forma di ateismo, spiritualità e provenienza religiosa. Ci ispiriamo al *Messaggio di Silo*. **Contributo 5€ per l'utilizzo della sala interna che include the e dolce offerti dalla libreria che ci ospita.** Per qualsiasi dubbio *328 1675353 (Sara)* e per saperne di più **Il Blog:** https://meditazionealparco.blogspot.com/ **Instagram**: @meditazionialparco Siamo anche su **Youtube** a questi canali: \- https://www\.youtube\.com/user/zioeracle/videos \- https://www\.youtube\.com/channel/UCPpSj2wKQ6hxr7W_5mXOi9Q/vid

Unisciti a noi per un meetup in presenza all’aria aperta, pensato per rallentare, riconnetterci con la natura e riscoprire il valore delle cose semplici, come camminare, respirare aria fresca e creare spazio per un miglior equilibrio tra vita e lavoro. Sarà una passeggiata rilassata in un contesto naturale, dove potremo goderci il momento, entrare in connessione con gli altri e condividere conversazioni significative. Durante il percorso, ci fermeremo nei punti che ci ispirano di più, dando a tutti la possibilità di scattare qualche foto. Se hai una macchina fotografica puoi portarla, ma anche il telefono andrà benissimo. Più che una semplice camminata, questo incontro sarà un’occasione per creare community, conoscerci meglio e riflettere insieme su temi legati al life coaching, all’equilibrio personale e al benessere. Che tu stia cercando aria fresca, connessioni autentiche, ispirazione creativa o semplicemente una pausa dalla routine, sei il benvenuto.

**Porta un libro che ti ha aiutato/a a stare meglio.** Metti un segnalibro sulla pagina che ti ha cambiato qualcosa. Non dire quale. Non dire perché. **È tipo un book club con il turbo. È qualcosa di più bello.** È scoprire cosa aiuta le persone a stare bene — e cosa potrebbe far stare meglio anche te. Con una pillola pratica su come portare quel concetto nelle tue relazioni reali. **Cosa portare:** un libro che ti ha fatto stare meglio con un segnalibro che indica un passaggio che può far stare bene anche qualcun altro, in qualsiasi ambito della vita; voglia di leggere e di stare bene; una copertina o un telo. **Dove:** Villa Pamphilj — ore 18:00. Riceverai l'indicazione del punto esatto via mail. **Costo: gratuito.** Cos'è l'Atelier delle Relazioni & Strategie Umane? [Clicca qui](https://sites.google.com/view/atelierrelazionieestrategie/)

This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

Join other experienced and aspiring agile coaches and professionals to: * develop and practice your coaching skills in a peer-to-peer environment * share current successes and challenges in your work environment and get support from each other * learn from each other, build better relationships and experiment with new ideas ***NOTE:*** Pre-registration is required for this event. **Please arrive 10 minutes early** to check in at the security desk.

Attend a free seminar on how to have successful and lasting relationships. At this seminar you will learn: How to spot and handle negative and toxic relationships. How to get through the "rough patches" in a relationship. How to choose the right people to work with. The three things that make or break any relationship. How to make a good relationship great. All are welcome. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. Hosted by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

Join us for our April Book Club gathering where we will come together to discuss *[Stop Me if You've Heard This One](https://www.kristenarnettwriter.com/stopmeifyouveheardthisone)* by [Kristen Arnett](https://www.kristenarnettwriter.com/about) in a safe and welcoming environment. Make new friends who share your passion for books and connect with fellow LGBTQ book enthusiasts.

We are recruiting new group leaders for virtual men's groups! Our primary groups are outdoor movement groups, but we are launching virtual groups for the state of Ohio and beyond and the groups will move outside in the spring, creating room for men's groups, women's groups and coed groups all over the country. Read below to learn about our groups and click the links at the bottom to apply. ### **What is an Outdoor Empowerment Group?** Our Outdoor Movement & Community Empowerment Groups are simple, guided experiences designed to help people reconnect with nature, themselves, and others. We combine some form of movement (hike, walk, run, bike, yoga, workout) and meaningful conversation within a simple community circle to create a space where individuals can support each other while prioritizing mental and physical well-being. Whether you’re seeking stress relief, personal growth, or community, our groups offer everyone a unique and welcoming environment. ## **Why Join?** * **Improve Mental & Physical Well-Being** – Movement, nature, and supportive conversations reduce stress and promote balance. * **Feel Less Alone** – Build genuine connections with like-minded people in a safe, welcoming space. * **Gain Clarity & Perspective** – Step outside daily routines and into a space designed for personal growth and reflection. ## **The Ideal Group Leader** The ideal group leader * Has a born-in passion for mental health, movement, connecting with nature and building community. * Has 5 extra hours per week to dedicate to a meaningful cause for at least one year. Yes, you can leave any organization at any time and we can also ask you to leave, but we are building with legacy in mind and we need people who can commit and be ALL IN on this mission to build with us. * Is independently financially stable with the ability to volunteer with no expectation of pay. This is a deeply beautiful journey of service that all participants commit to at Speak Your Mind. * An ability to manage groups with high emotional intelligence and desire for human connection. * An ability to self-motivate and market/promote their group on Facebook and other social platforms. * Nature informed therapy or clinical therapists/psychologists a plus. ## **Our Impact**  Since launching, we have helped thousands find support, connection, and healing through our Outdoor Movement Groups. 100% of participants surveyed have reported: * A noticeable improvement in mental clarity and emotional well-being. * An increase in social connection and a sense of belonging. * Said they would return again. We believe mental health should be accessible, community-driven, and rooted in nature. Join us and take the first step toward a more connected, grounded, and supported version of yourself. ### **Why Our Groups are Donation-Based** Our Outdoor Movement Groups are made possible through a donation-based model. This approach allows us to keep our events accessible to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances, while also ensuring that we can continue expanding our reach. It’s a great way to pay it forward and support the growth of this beautiful mission! Every contribution helps us: * **Cover Essential Costs** – Donations allow us to pay essential legal, marketing, insurance, and admin costs as well as nourish the important people who run the organization. * **Grow Our Mission** – With your support, we can bring these healing experiences to thousands more people in the future and execute our long term plan to expand across the USA, affecting up to 500,000 people per year. By choosing to contribute, you’re not just leading an event—you’re helping build a mental health movement that supports long-term well-being and connection for all during a severe mental health epidemic. ## **Come Join Us!** We’d love to have you be part of this growing community of people prioritizing their mental health, movement, and connection. 🔹 **Visit Our Website to Learn More:** https://speakyourmind.men/joinusoutside 🔹 **Apply Here to Lead Your Own Group!** – https://form.jotform.com/taketimespeakyourmind/sym-group-leader-application 🔹 **Support the mission**: If you resonate with the mission and want to support, feel free to join a group before applying or donate to help us reach our goals to help more people!
