It is considered a cornerstone of Chinese Medicine and includes gentle physical movements, visualization and meditation. Spring Forest Qigong (SFQ), a modernized form of qigong, was created by International Qigong Master Chunyi Lin with a focus on gaining the greatest benefit in the shortest amount of time. SFQ can start to improve all aspects of health; circulation, flexibility, strengthening immunity, emotional stability, mental clarity, stress reduction, pain relief all while providing an increased sense of happiness and vitality. Master Lin believes that everyone is born a healer and can help themselves heal and help others heal as well. His vision is “A healer in every home and a world without pain and suffering.” Chunyi is the author of a #1 Amazon bestseller, Born A Healer. He is also coauthor with Dr. Nisha Manek of the Mayo Clinic of a chapter on Qigong in a medical school textbook, The Textbook of Complementary and Alternative Medicine, Second Edition.

Achieve greater awareness of your thoughts, feelings, and habits. As a natural result of meditation, you will improve your emotional intelligence and gain greater insight into your habits and tendencies enabling you to regulate your moods and change your life. Without awareness, we allow patterns to continue, repeating over and over again, making the same mistakes and disrupting our relationships. As soon as we see the patterns, we can begin the work of freeing ourselves from them. Meditation improves relationships in many ways, by regulating moods, increasing empathy, compassion, and, most powerfully, love and acceptance. Who wouldn’t want to have awesome relationships? \*\*RSVP here : https://www.onlinemeditationevents.com/class/meaningful-relationships-meditation/

# *"Successful Real Estate Investing Is NOT Hard, When You Know The Insider's Secret That Has Created Multiple 7-Figure Real Estate Empires..."* **Don't just take my word for it...** Here are just a few of the folks who are using this simple 5-Step system to create 6-Figure, 7-Figure, and (in a few cases) 8-Figure real estate investing businesses: * **Josh Cohen of 3-Step Home Sales, an 8-Figure Real Estate Wholesaling Machine that Josh runs through his virtual network of team members;** * Howard Johnson, not only got his very first deal within 21-Days of starting his Realinvestors® training but built a 6-Figure real estate investing business in less than 9-months, and now routinely gets 6-Figure checks (from single deals) every month! * **Lisa Wood, who shortly after joining our training was diagnosed with the medical condition known as M.S. Fortunately, in her words, she "discovered Realinvestors and the power of creating a 6-Figure Income, working from home on a part-time basis" Today Lisa, using this same 5-Step system, routinely generates a (high) 6-Figure income, many days working from the bedside desk her husband built for her when her M.S. flares up!** * Godwin Owinje has mastered the art of finding, fixing and flipping deals (part-time) to create a high 6-Figure income, while still traveling the world pursuing his real passion - professional basketball as a training and scout for the NBA. * **...and we can (and will) go on to share many other success stories this coming Saturday, but not just flashing their successes, we'll also go step-by-step on how you too can apply this 5-Step system to build your very own 7-Figure (or high 6-Figure) real estate investor business, while working part-time, from home in the next 12 Months!** ...but hurry, and take action NOW, because while this event is FREE, the seating for this LIVE WORKSHOP Is very limited!

The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again. We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all. Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD

Pay attention! We’re delaying a week for those of you who may be on Spring break and/or celebrating the holiday. Ok, no pancakes, but waffles-a-plenty. Join the local UX and Digital Design community for a casual monthly breakfast. Look for us upstairs!

**The Data-Driven Brand: Using Analytics to Shape Perception** Can you use analytics to improve tacos? This being CBUSDAW, we think the answer is probably “yes”, but we’re not sure how to implement or test this theory. For our April meetup we’ve got Sara Kear, CMO of Condado Tacos, to investigate this delicious question. Sara will explore how she blends quantitative data and qualitative customer feedback to shape brand positioning and drive business decisions. We all know that marketing and analytics go way beyond attribution. Sara will show how Condado uses customer insights to inform product and pricing strategy. She’ll also highlight how Condado leverages customer feedback at scale to influence operational priorities, positioning marketing as the voice of the customer across the organization. In the last 12 years Condado has gone from one location in Columbus to 52 locations across 10 states, so we’re guessing there’s more to that growth than really good guac (though the guac probably helps). Ultimately, this talk focuses on the intersection of art and science—using data to inform creativity and build a brand that resonates with customers in a measurable way. **About Our Speaker** Sara Kear is Chief Marketing Officer at Condado Tacos, where she oversees brand, restaurant design, menu and pricing strategy, off-premise including catering, and customer data strategy. Since joining in 2021, she has helped grow the brand from 19 to 52 locations while building a data-driven marketing organization focused on loyalty and customer insights. Condado has since been named to the Inc. 5000, recognized as Breakout Retailer by Chain Store Age, and consistently ranked among FastCasual’s Top 100 Movers & Shakers.

AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s? This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation?
