*Since this day will be in Dutch, this description is too.* **Ontdek de kracht van stilte** *“De innerlijke kracht van stilte, verkregen vanuit een diepe gronding van lichaam en geest, schept de basis voor ware vrede en harmonie.”* – Gelek Rimpoche Een paar keer per jaar organiseren we op zondag een bijzondere dag van meditatie en verstilling. Even weg van de drukte, om tot rust te komen en opnieuw contact te maken met je eigen adem, je lichaam, je innerlijke stilte. We doen dit door middel van bodyscans, mindful bewegen, zit- en loopmeditatie, inspirerende teksten en uitwisseling met elkaar. Ook de lunch (zelf meenemen) gebruiken we als oefening in bewust aanwezig zijn - in stilte. Of je nu veel mediteert of helemaal aan het begin staat - je bent welkom zoals je bent. *Misschien is dit zo’n dag waar jij aan toe bent? Je bent van harte uitgenodigd.* **Datum:** Zondag 21 september 2025 **Plaats:** Jewel Heart, Hatertseveldweg 284, Nijmegen. **Tijd**: 10.30u-16.00u (inloop vanaf 10.00 uur) **Bijdrage**: Jewel Heart-leden kunnen gratis deelnemen.

Join us for some focused writing time. All writers and all experience levels are welcome and don’t worry, no one will see what you've written. This session is about getting your writing done and meeting other writers in your area. When you show up, say hello to everyone, grab a drink, and get your writing tools ready. Once you’re all settled, take some time to chat with your fellow writers. Once everyone’s arrived, I will lead quick introductions and then set the timer for our quiet and focused writing session. Afterward, we’ll have time to chat and get to know each other. We often talk about our successes and challenges as writers. If you don’t have time to stick around, no worries! **A note about the format** We don’t host critiques or readings. These events are a safe space for writers of all skill levels and genres to work on their craft, so no one will read or critique your writing.

Step back into the **13th century** and uncover one of the most dramatic stories in Dutch history. For this new chapter of the *Pastime* series, we head to **Muiden**, where politics, betrayal, and power collided in a way that still echoes today. Here, in **1296**, **Floris V**, one of the most influential rulers of medieval Holland, was **captured and assassinated**, allegedly as part of a plot involving **Edward I of England**. This walk will take us through landscapes that feel far removed from modern life — along polders, dikes, and waterways — while we reconstruct the rise and fall of a man who shaped the destiny of the region. Along the way, we’ll explore: * the fragmented medieval Netherlands (counties, duchies, shifting alliances) * the life and legacy of Floris V * the events leading to his assassination * and the traces of this era around **Muiderslot Castle**, one of the most iconic castles in the country 🚶‍♂️ **Walk details:** A scenic **\~5 km walk** through a mix of paved and unpaved paths, including dikes and countryside. ⚠️ Note: the route can get **muddy in bad weather** and includes a few small obstacles (like stepping over fences). 🍺 **After the walk:** We’ll head to **Ruis aan de Sluis** for a well-earned break. You’ll be able to grab a drink or something to eat, including beers from the local **Muyder Brewery** — among them the **“Muyder 1296”**, brewed specifically to commemorate the death of Floris V. A perfect way to close the loop between history and taste. *** History, storytelling, nature — and a well deserved drink at the end. Join us ⚔️🍺
