Neurodivergence

What if your “inner child” wasn’t just a concept—but a vivid, living presence you can actually meet? In this talk, Sonja explores how inner child work unfolds during practices like holoptropic breathwork — where early imprints, unmet needs, and developmental trauma can emerge with clarity, emotional depth, and transformative potential. Going beyond traditional therapeutic models, we’ll explore how these experiences move through various layers of the psyche where different “inner children” and dimensions of the self may appear. Through real examples from holotropic sessions, this lecture sheds light on the healing intelligence of expanded states—and how they can help unravel deep relational patterns. 🌀 A blend of theory & lived experience 🌀 Space for dialogue 🌀 Short guided journey to meet your inner child Come with curiosity, leave with a deeper, more grounded perspective. After the talk, feel free to stay and connect with like-minded individuals in a relaxed atmosphere.

We will meet in a calm and friendly place ( Parc, Café, Restaurant) to explore together some of Jiddu Krishnamurti’s key questions about awareness, relationship, and freedom. There will be no teaching, no authority — only open dialogue and attentive listening. Everyone is welcome, whether you are familiar with Jiddu Krishnamurti or simply curious about life and self-understanding. We’ll start with an open conversation around a theme such as “Listening without judgment” or “Can thought bring clarity?” Please bring openness, curiosity, and a readiness to listen — no books or notes needed. The spirit is not to discuss “what should be,” but to observe together “what is.”

Come as you are, bring a friend if you like, and enjoy Eurovision night with us in a social and easygoing setting.

⚡ **AI & Coffee — Vienna's In-Person AI Community** AI is moving faster than any of us can keep up with alone. The best way to make sense of it — and stay ahead of it — is by getting in the same room as people who are just as in as you are. That is exactly what AI & Coffee is about. We are bringing together Vienna's most curious, creative and driven minds for an afternoon of open, honest and energising conversations about artificial intelligence — not in theory, but in practice. No slides. No pitches. No pressure. Just real people, real ideas and real connections over great coffee. ☕🤖 The first part of the meetup is where everyone will introduce themselves for 1-3 minutes so that you can get to know who everyone in the room is and also share who you are and what you are looking for. This is the most effective networking concept to make the best out of the time. The other half of the event is just free networking. You will be surprised by how many people will be interested in meeting you after the introduction round, and how many raised your curiosity! See you! *** ☕ **What we will talk about** AI & Coffee is an open conversation — guided by curiosity and driven by the people in the room. Expect discussions around: * What is actually happening in AI right now — the real breakthroughs, the real hype * Tools, projects and experiments people are building and testing * Practical AI use cases across industries — finance, marketing, tech, healthcare and more * Ideas, feedback and fresh perspectives from people at different stages of their AI journey Feel free to bring your laptop if you want to show something you are working on. Some of the best conversations at our last event started with someone sharing their screen. 💡 *** 👥 **Who is this for?** Developers and engineers building with AI Founders and entrepreneurs exploring AI for their business Investors and mentors looking to understand what is coming Researchers and students at the forefront of AI Creatives experimenting with AI tools Corporate professionals curious about AI's impact on their industry And anyone who simply cannot stop thinking about where AI is heading If AI excites, challenges or intrigues you — you belong here. *** ✨ **What to expect** A warm, welcoming and relaxed atmosphere where everyone has a seat at the table. Our host will kick things off with a few conversation sparks and the latest AI highlights — then the rest is yours. Meet, talk, connect and exchange freely. No commitment. No agenda. No pressure. Just the kind of afternoon that leaves you energised, inspired and already looking forward to the next one. *** 🎉 **The only cost is your own coffee or drink.** Bring your curiosity, your ideas and an open mind — and let's keep building one of the most exciting AI communities in Vienna. 🇦🇹 👉 Register now — spots are limited and they go fast!

**Begegnungen jenseits von Small Talk** Es gibt Momente im Leben, in denen sich Fragen nicht mehr übergehen lassen. Zu Sinn. Zu Beziehungen. Zu Innerer Ruhe, Weisheit, Spiritueller Ganzheit. Zu dem, was wirklich zählt. Dieses Treffen bietet einen Raum, um diesen Fragen bewusst zu begegnen — in Verbindung mit dir selbst und im Austausch mit anderen. Mit echten Gesprächen, klarer Reflexion und einfachen, umsetzbaren Impulsen für den Alltag. Ein zentraler Bestandteil ist das, was ich **Soul Polishing** nenne: eine regelmäßige Praxis, mit sich selbst in Kontakt zu bleiben — und innere Balance, Ruhe und Stärke zu entwickeln. Nicht einmal. Sondern immer wieder — wie Zähneputzen. Ein erfülltes Leben entsteht nicht zufällig. Es entsteht durch Aufmerksamkeit, durch ehrliches Hinschauen und durch kleine, bewusste Schritte im Alltag. Du kannst selbstverständlich auch alleine kommen. Die Atmosphäre macht es leicht, in Kontakt zu kommen. Du entscheidest selbst, wie viel du teilen möchtest — Zuhören ist genauso willkommen. Der Abend verbindet Momente der Stille und innerer Relexion mit Austausch und Raum für Begegnung. Open end — für ein entspanntes Miteinander. Du gehst mit mehr Klarheit. Mehr Ruhe. Und einem stärkeren Gefühl, wieder näher bei dir selbst zu sein. Lass dich inspirieren, begegne Gleichgesinnten und genieße eine ruhige, herzliche Atmosphäre. Für Kaffee, Tee, kleine Snacks und Getränke ist gesorgt. Beitrag: € 15 pro Person (zur Deckung der Kosten für Raum und Verpflegung) Ich freue mich auf dich.
