### 🔓 UNLOCK THE POWER OF EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION 🗣️ “I know what I should say, but it doesn't come out right.” “I want to fix my relationship, but I don't know where to start.” “When the time comes, I don't know what to say.” “I have so many ideas, but I'm too afraid to share them.” In every aspect of life—whether in relationships, family dynamics, business, or the workplace—**communication is the key** 🔑 Without it, progress is impossible. But with effective communication, the doors to success swing wide open. Learn the secrets of how to communicate to anyone, anywhere—whether you’re speaking to a small group, addressing a large audience, or having a one-on-one conversation. ## 🌟 THE POWER OF EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION Poor communication is often overlooked as the root of problems in relationships, confidence, and work ability. In this workshop, we’ll cover the **formula of communication** and how to use it to improve every aspect of your life. ### ✅ Effective communication can handle: * Shyness and introversion * Business relationships and efficiency * Marriages and romantic relationships * Self-confidence and self-esteem * Everyday interactions This is not just a lecture where you sit quietly and listen - It’s **interactive and LIVE** so you can ask questions at any time and start practicing your newfound skills right away. ### 📅 **20 May 2026 – 7:00 PM** 📍 Church of Scientology & Community Centre of Dublin, Firhouse Road, Dublin D24 CX39

\*\*Each week we typically have 2-3 spots open to players from this app. This is why you will only see 2-3 attending. The others are regulars and we coordinate in a private WhatsApp group\*\* We play a 6v6 game every Wednesday @ 8:00PM in SportsCo, Dublin 4. The pitch we use is spacious an ideal for 6v6 (ball/all bibs provided). To encourage passing and flowing football, goals can only be scored from inside the penalty area. Games are played in a friendly atmosphere and slide tackles are prohibited. We don't have stick keepers and use a last-man back policy. There is a core group of regular players who have played with us for years but we also invite a handful of pickup players to play from this app. If pickup players like the vibe they might have the option to subscribe on a longer-term basis. This game has been running on the same pitch for over a decade. The games are good quality with good technical players and always played in a nice, competitive atmosphere.

This event is beginner Friendly. More experienced players are still free to come along. I will explain the rules before the first game at 7:15 so please arrive on time if you're new. The rules may be different than other versions of mafia that you played. There is limited capacity so we can't accept every RSVP request. If we aren't able to accept your RSVP event please come to a future.

Experience Dublin's mysterious legends and myths on this 90 minute walking tour. ### **Legends, Ghosts, and Ghouls!** ***[Get your Tickets](https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/legends-ghosts-and-ghouls-of-dublin-walking-tour-tickets-1970375385820)*** Ireland has a unique relationship with its legendary past. Kept alive in the histories of the Filí and the Seanchaidhe, Ireland’s gods were not destroyed but - in the words of Mark Williams - demoted to lesser beings. This is an important element of Ireland’s oral histories, which in turn have coloured its popular histories and left many legends for us to parse over today. On the other side of Irish history we have the ballrooms, the salons, and the private studies of Dublin’s litterati. The seances and unwrapping parties, the mysteries and the macabre, all combining into the secret esoteric orders that strove to unlock the secrets of existence. Come explore with us where these two elements fuse to create the wonderful world of Legends, Ghosts, and Ghouls that are just as much a part of Dublin’s history as any of its citizens and buildings… Our tour has over 100 excellent reviews online and is ranked in the top tours on Trip Advisor. **TOPICS** * Maud Gonne & WB Yeats * The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn * Huguenot Cemetery * The Ghost of the Shelbourne * St. Stephen’s Green’s Grizzly History * Bram Stoker * Graverobbers * Darkey Kelly * Dublin’s House of Horrors * Tenements * Justice in Dublin **PRIVATE TOURS** We are also now doing private tours for groups, if you want to host your own tour get in touch with us.

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia
