🔥 **LA RIVOLUZIONE INTERIORE: Il tuo primo atto di resilienza** **…“Viviamo in un mondo dove siamo tutti interconnessi, e quindi il bene o il male che facciamo a un altro finiamo per farlo a noi stessi. Bisogna quindi imparare a cooperare invece di competere indiscriminatamente. E se non ora quando?”... Federico Faggin** **Perché farlo:** Difronte alla **disintegrazione e al cinismo** la nostra risposta è **una rivoluzione interiore** che si esprime in **solidarietà e resistenza nonviolenta.** Qui alleniamo **azioni valide,** quelle che rafforzano l’unità interna e riducono contraddizione e sofferenza, dentro e fuori di noi. ### **🌱 IL NOSTRO PERCORSO SETTIMANALE è l'allenamento per la Doppia Rivoluzione: Interna e del mondo che ci circonda.** * **Pratiche di consapevolezza:** Impariamo a connetterci con la parte più vera e profonda di noi. * **Autoconoscenza:** Conosci te stesso, fai **pace** con il passato, **trasforma** il presente**, costruisci il futuro**. Qui rompiamo le catene della paura e della violenza che ci tengono bloccati. 🫂 **LA FORZA NELL'UNIONE: si cresce insieme!** * **RELAZIONI AUTENTICHE:** Spazi di ascolto sincero, condivisione e mutuo sostegno. **Non c’è rivoluzione senza comunità.** Ci alleniamo a compiere azioni che rafforzano l’unità e riducono la contraddizione, dentro e fuori di noi. * **PROGETTAZIONE E AZIONE SOLIDALE:** La nostra consapevolezza interiore si trasforma in **azione nonviolenta e solidale**. Insieme pensiamo e costruiamo iniziative concrete e comunità che sfidano la logica del potere e del consumo, riportando l'essere umano al centro. ### **Cosa troverai qui** * **Un cammino,** non un corso da seguire. Non si viene solo a “prendere”: qui si cresce insieme. **La Regola d’Oro come bussola etica.** * Un contesto del tutto non-confessionale e aperto a ogni forma di ateismo, spiritualità e provenienza religiosa. * **Un ambiente libero** dove puoi crescere davvero, uno spazio in cui crescano la gentilezza, il buon umore e la sincerità interiore. * **Persone con cui praticare, dialogare, fare nuove esperienze, condividere momenti di festa e di silenzio.** **🚫 Cosa NON è** * **❌ Non è psicoterapia** *** ### **🔄 Come partecipare** **Ci incontriamo ogni settimana a Roma e online.** **COME PRENOTARE: se interessati, oltre a segnarvi nell'evento, è FONDAMENTALE PRENOTARSI SU TELEGRAM o WHATSAPP al +393461476543** **POSTI: 20 (RSVP obbligatorio)** **QUANDO si svolge**: tutti i sabato dalle ore 11,00 alle 13,00. **A CHI E' RIVOLTO**: **a giovani fino a 30 anni di età.** **GLI EVENTI SONO GRATUITI**: tutte le attività sono gratuite, ma si richiede, dopo il primo incontro di prova, un contributo annuale di 20€ per coprire le spese per i materiali, i social, la sala e spese varie. **COSA PORTARE:** curiosità, rispetto, un quaderno dove annotare le difficoltà e i progressi.

DOVE: Roma, via Latina 120, SPAZIO Il SOLE CHI SONO Sono una coach che integra coaching strategico e trasformazione spirituale, unendo chiarezza decisionale e lavoro interiore. Dopo una formazione in Economia e Marketing e oltre 15 anni nel mondo della comunicazione, ho compreso che non basta costruire un’identità esterna senza conoscere chi si è davvero dentro. Oggi accompagno le persone a riconoscere e attivare le proprie risorse interiori, lavorando da quello spazio fragile ma potente in cui inizia il cambiamento. Nel mio percorso integro coaching strategico, consapevolezza simbolica e ritualità, per radicare la trasformazione nella vita quotidiana. Non aiuto a diventare qualcun altro, ma a riconoscere chi sei adesso, anche prima di saperlo dire con le parole.
