Hello there! We'd like to welcome you to our FREE Sahaja Yoga meditation meetings hosted by Wolfgang, Hamid, Anil, Shantanu & friends which take place in Vienna – 7pm Thursdays. With Sahaja Yoga Meditation we normally sit on chairs to achieve yoga, effortlessly & spontaneously. So there is no need for mats and no special clothing required. We are all volunteers of a Charity association and have many years of experience in offering free Sahaja Yoga Meditation classes. All across the globe, many are seeking new sources of energy. Meanwhile, the most transformative energy of all is hiding in plain sight, within us. It's natural, sustainable, and infinitely renewable. It's called inner kundalini energy. And everyone already has it — everyone!. It is often likened to an inner feminine or motherly energy which automatically knows about us and what is needed to help us restore balance and harmony within our subtle being. It works spontaneously, effortlessly, organically and cannot be paid for. The classes are designed to help those attending get into a genuine meditative state, which can be felt tangibly. It is quite effortless and spontaneous. The free classes feature introductory talks, video's, practical workshops and general question and answer opportunities, making them perfect for seekers trying to establish a state of yoga, and they are available across Vienna most evenings and throughout Austria. The idea is that you don't do yoga - you Achieve Yoga! Sahaja Yoga Meditation is a simple, time-honored technique. It helps those who enjoy it, reduce stress and increase wellness and health holistically. It brings better focus and helps people become more centered and better balanced. Anyone can do it. Founded by Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, Sahaja Yoga Meditation is a world wide movement for peace and self awakening. All the meetings and classes are free of any charge. Each week we go through simple meditation techniques, often with guided meditations to help reduce stress and achieve the peace of true meditation. We share tips on how to help stay in balance during the day and how to meditate at home. The meditation is based on connecting with the inner chakras (energy centres) and balancing the subtle body. The tradition and aims of meditation are explained which in essence is to be in the present with no mental activity or thoughts about the past or the future. Occasionally there are 1 day retreats to help those interested, deepen their individual experience and hear advice and tips from those who have been practicing for some time. It’s ultimately all about getting into ‘thoughtless awareness’, a natural state of being. 10 Reasons to try-out Sahaja Yoga Meditation in Vienna in 2015 It’s easy. You don’t have to spend years living in the mountains to achieve enlightenment. You don’t have to give up anything or spend weeks in silence. You don’t have to learn mantras or wear special clothes or even try to clear my mind. The meditation simply happens spontaneously. The classes are easy and fun, and as long as you keep up your daily ten minutes of meditation you find you are able to achieve a deep and peaceful meditation on a regular basis. It’s free. You don’t pay for your meditation. There are no catches, and there are no hidden expenses. If you missed attending classes one week, it doesn’t matter. You just picked up the classes again when you could manage it. It is simply the generosity of spirit of other Sahaja Yoga meditation practitioners that allows Sahaja Yoga to be taught to whomever desires it, at no cost. You can see results. You feel relaxed and you feel a deep sense of calm. Now you can also feel your chakras (energy centres) and through the meditation techniques learnt along the way you can understand the vibrations of your own energy centres. If you feel unwell you meditate and use the techniques you’ve learnt to heal your chakras, and you can then feel the centres clearing, and as a consequence your health improves. It’s all-inclusive. All the major religions and their core teachings are acknowledged and respected in Sahaja Yoga. No one’s spiritual journey is right or wrong. And through meditation the wisdom of all the great gurus and saints is easily revealed and understood. In fact, you’ll find that since you’ve been meditating you’ll come to understand and appreciate the teachings of great teachers such as Lao Tse, Buddha and Mohammed. You’re your own boss. You meditate and introspect at your own pace. You don’t have to keep up with others, or feel pressured into doing things you’re not comfortable with. You are your own teacher, your own guru, your own master. This technique of meditation empowers you and enables you to help yourself. You don’t have to rely on anybody else. Of course, there are many people who practice Sahaja Yoga Meditation who can teach you a great deal about the yoga & meditation and its various techniques. However, all that you need is ultimately within you. It’s everywhere. Sahaja Yoga is practiced in almost every country in the world. So, no matter where you travel you can always locate a local Sahaja Yoga Meditation programme that you can attend. Whenever you get the chance, and no matter where you are, You try to link up with other Sahaja Yoga practitioners and enjoy a collective meditation. (Meditating with others is a much deeper and more powerful experience than meditating alone.) It’s portable. You don’t need to take anything with you to meditate: no mats, no potions, no special clothing or books. You can meditate anywhere – in a quiet room or on a noisy bus; at the beach or watching a movie. Thoughtless awareness (the state of meditation) is easy to achieve if you keep meditating daily, and it can be achieved in almost any situation. It makes sense. Everything you’ll learn will make sense. There is a lot of common sense in Sahaja Yogameditation, and even though not everything was known to you (for example, the chakras and their respective qualities), once you have a chance to learn more about the meditation, it feels very natural and comfortable. Everybody does it. When you begin a hobby or join a new group, you often find that there are particular types of people who are in the group with you. For example, some groups attract younger people, others older folk; some groups have a lot of people who are wealthy, or people who live in a certain part of town. In Sahaja Yoga you will find people from every walk of life, from every demographic – male and female, young and old, rich and poor, every shape, size and colour, with varying interests, languages and beliefs. You don’t have to be a certain type of person to do Sahaja Yoga meditation. It is one of those rarities: something for everybody. You feel good. Without fail, every time you sit down to meditate you feel better. Whether you manage to have a deep meditation or not makes no difference, and as a consequence your family and friends are reaping the benefits. So there you have it......ten reasons...... Pop along to a Free Sahaja Yoga Meditation weekly Meeting

# Die Seele will gehört werden Die Meditation auf Licht und Klang im Inneren ist die älteste und direkteste Form der Meditation, die allen organisierten Religionen vorausging. Sie umfasst keinerlei körperliche Übung, keine Atemtechnik und keine mentale Visualisierung. Es ist eine rein spirituelle Praxis — ein stilles Lauschen nach innen, dorthin, wo die Seele seit jeher spricht. Wer sich diesem inneren Licht und Klang öffnet, beginnt, die feinen Ebenen des eigenen Wesens wahrzunehmen - denn die Seele will gehört werden. Diese Veranstaltung ist kostenlos.

**Achtung:** **Dieser Kurs besteht aus zwei Teilen: der 2. Teil folgt in zwei Wochen am 13. Juni!** Bitte stellen Sie sicher, dass Sie an beiden Kursteilen teilnehmen können! Manchmal lassen wir uns einschüchtern von anderen, die sich mit größter Selbstverständlichkeit mit ihren Ansichten und Interessen in den Vordergrund stellen. * **Manchmal sind wir sprachlos, wenn andere uns beleidigen, uns klein reden oder Dinge von uns verlangen, die wir nicht wollen, aber dennoch nicht ablehnen können.** In einer kleinen freundlichen Gruppe üben wir uns darin zu wachsen, fest zu stehen, Grenzen zu ziehen und uns durchzusetzen: körperlich, emotional und verbal. Damit wir es das nächste Mal da draußen auch schaffen! **Die Sprache im Workshop ist Deutsch.** Teilnehmende, deren Erstsprache nicht Deutsch ist, sollten mindestens **Deutschniveau B2** haben. Bei Verständnisfragen kann jedoch auf Englisch oder Französisch übersetzt werden. - **-->** **Dieser Workshop wurde neu erstellt, deshalb ist die Teilnahme kostenlos.** **Doch eine freiwillige Spende ist sehr willkommen!** **Hinweis:** **Dieser Kurs wird voraussichtlich in absehbarer Zeit auch auf Englisch und auf Französisch angeboten werden. Bei Interesse bitte dieser Gruppe folgen!** **+++++++** **STANDING TALL WITH CONFIDENCE - 1st part** **Attention please:** **This course consists of 2 parts!** **The 2nd part will take place the 13th of June.** Please make sure that you can participate at both parts! Sometimes we let ourselves be intimidated by others who naturally push themselves to the forefront with their views and interests. * **Sometimes we are left speechless when others insult us, belittle us, or demand things that we don’t want but feel unable to refuse.** In a small, friendly group, we practice growing, standing firm, setting boundaries, and asserting ourselves: physically, emotionally, and verbally – so that we can succeed out there next time! **The workshop language is German**. Participants whose first language is not German should have **at least a B2 level**. However, for comprehension questions, translations into English or French can be provided. **--> This workshop has been newly created, therefore the participation will be free of charge.** **But free donation will be very welcome!** **Note:** **This course is also expected to be offered in English in the near future. If you are interested, please follow this group!** **+++++++** **S'AFFIRMER AVEC ASSURANCE - 1ère partie** **Attention: ce cours est divisé en deux parties!** **La 2ème partie se déroulera au 13 juin.** S.v.p., assurez-vous de pouvoir participer à toutes les deux parties! Parfois, nous nous laissons intimider par d'autres qui se mettent en avant avec leurs opinions et leurs intérêts avec la plus grande assurance. * **Parfois, nous restons sans voix lorsque d'autres nous insultent, nous rabaissent ou exigent de nous des choses que nous ne voulons pas, mais que nous n'arrivons pourtant pas à refuser.** Au sein d'un petit groupe bienveillant, nous nous exerçons à grandir, à rester fermes, à poser des limites et à nous affirmer : physiquement, émotionnellement et verbalement. Pour que nous y arrivions aussi, la prochaine fois, dans le monde extérieur ! **La langue du workshop est l'allemand.** Les participants dont la langue maternelle n'est pas l'allemand doivent avoir **au moins un niveau B2.** En cas de questions de compréhension, une traduction en anglais ou en français est toutefois possible. **--> Cet atelier vient d'être crée et pour cette raison la participation sera gratuite.** **Mais une donation libre sera la bienvenue!** **Remarque :** **Ce cours sera probablement proposé prochainement aussi en français. Si vous êtes intéressé(e), n'hésitez pas à suivre ce groupe !**

Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8!

[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison.
