This Weeks Topic: Medical Aspects of the Subtle System What we are about - Would you like to learn how to meditate, go beyond your thinking, balance your subtle system and learn simple tools for self-mastery? Yoga is a great way to underpin Health & Wellbeing Learn to Meditate in 2026 - Free 10 Week Ongoing Sahaja Yoga Meditation Course - hosted by Jayant, Violeta, Vivek, Seamus and friends every Tuesday - All Welcome - Join any Week - The address: Fringe Lab, Sycamore Building, Sycamore Street, Temple Bar, Dublin 2, DO2 TD81 - on Tuesday evenings from 7:30 pm until 9:00 pm With Sahaja Yoga Meditation, we usually sit on chairs to achieve yoga effortlessly & spontaneously. So there is no need for mats or special clothing. All across the globe, many are seeking new sources of energy. Meanwhile, the most transformative energy is hiding in plain sight within us, and it's natural, sustainable, and infinitely renewable. It's called inner kundalini energy. And everyone already has it — everyone!. It is often likened to an inner feminine or motherly energy which automatically knows about us and what is needed to help us restore balance and harmony within our subtle being. It works spontaneously, effortlessly, organically, and cannot be paid for. Sahaja Yoga Meditation is a simple, time-honoured technique that lets you tap into that energy and harness its power to become better balanced and better connected to yourself — emotionally, physically, mentally and spiritually. If you're having trouble juggling the challenges in your life, Sahaja Yoga Meditation might help you manage stress, master your emotions and find solutions to your problems. You may enjoy better health, better focus, and a deeper understanding of the universe and your place in it. Meditation is not just for mystics and monks. Sahaja Yoga meditation is for everyone. Anyone can do it. It's that easy. But with the Sahaja Yoga experience, you'll quickly realise it isn't your typical Meditation. It's much more than just feeling peaceful and relaxed. Sahaja Yoga Meditation has many layers, varied and deep. Explore at your own pace, in your way. Our volunteer experts are always available to help. Ready to plug into your inner energy? A few minutes of your life may be all it takes to connect to your inner energy and light the path to lifelong transformation. It's all about energy — guaranteed pure and carbon neutral, and you can never have too much of it. All classes are free. No strings, no catch. Everyone is welcome. Bring a friend.

***Mountain Skills for Only €120 / course*** Ever wanted to learn the skills you need to become a competent navigator in the Irish mountains, the UK, the Alps or beyond! As a fully qualified mountain guide and course provider for Mountaineering Ireland and the UK, I run Mountain Skills which is a nationally accredited course and is delivered in an upland environment. Hiking in Ireland can be challenging not only because of its wilderness, but the island has very little sign posted hiking trails in the mountains or hills. In addition to this, as being an island in the Atlantic we experience the forces of nature; storms and weather events. In other words, Ireland is probably the best place in Europe to learn a new outdoor skill like Mountain Skills. The aim of this course is to help you learn the skills you need to get out hiking in the hills and mountains independently, safely and responsibly. You will learn how to navigate with confidence by any type of weather conditions. A Mountain Skills course is run over 2 days in an upland environment and covers: Map reading, map description, map scale, contour lines, land and ground features, navigation legs, simple navigation techniques, setting the map, the 5 D, estimation of direction & destination, grid reference, mountain hazards, hypothermia, mountain environment, timing, pacing, route planning, route card, emergency procedures, personal equipment, safe movement skills, river crossing and much more… Some level of fitness is essential in taking part in this course. Each course (MS1 / MS2) is a 20 hour syllabus which includes indoor and outdoor sessions and night navigation (MS2) **A course includes:** Maps and compass provided, tea breaks, course notes, 3 route cards, a free hiking day practice as part of a weekend. **For Only €100 for under 18 and students and €120 for adults.** Accommodations can be provided Feb 21-22 MS1 Comeragh, Co.Waterford Feb 26/March 01 - MS2 in Glenmalure, Co.Wicklow March 21-22 MS1 Glenmalure, Co.Wicklow March 28-29 MS2 Glenmalure, Co.Wicklow April 09-10 MS1 Glenmalure, Co.

In collaboration with Gittogether Dublin 🤝 The AI DevTools revolution is here, and it's time to separate the signal from the noise! Join Dublin MUG (MongoDB User Group) and GitTogether Dublin for a hands-on technical deep dive - evening exploring the AI-powered tools that are reshaping how we build software. Whether you're already using AI coding assistants daily, curious about integrating AI into your development workflow, or want to connect with other developers navigating this space, this meetup is for you! We aren't just looking at autocomplete; we would be exploring the entire Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). We'll map out the best tools from the landscape and show you how to build a developer environment where your AI agent actually understands your data. **🛠️ What we're building:** SDLC Mapping: We'll start by categorizing the "chaos"—mapping AI tools to the SDLC (Coding, Testing, Docs, and Ops). The Agent Workshop: A hands-on setup of a GitHub Copilot Agent using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). We'll get everyone's environment "Agent-ready." Workshop: GitHub: https://github.com/skills/integrate-mcp-with-copilot The Data Connection: We'll hook that agent into the MongoDB MCP Server. You'll see how Copilot can explore schemas, write aggregation pipelines, and query Atlas directly from your natural language prompts. Workshop: https://github.com/SANTANNA001/MongoDB-MCP-Config/blob/main/MongoDB_MCP_Copilot_Steps.md Performance & Optimization: A showcase of the "essential" stack—MongoDB Compass AI Chat, the VS Code MCP bridge, and using AI to solve real-world performance bottlenecks. **📅 Agenda (6:00 PM - 8:30 PM)** **6:00 \- 6:30 PM \| Intro\, Networking & Pizza 🍕** Grab some food, meet fellow developers, and share your experiences with AI DevTools **6:30 \- 7:15 PM \| Workshop 1: Integrate MCP with GitHub Copilot** Speaker: [Oleksandr Slynko](https://www.linkedin.com/in/slynko/), Data Engineer @Github Hands-on exercise expanding Copilot's capabilities using the Model Context Protocol. You'll connect a GitHub MCP server to Copilot and use Agent Mode to research, implement features, and manage issues. **7:15 \- 8:00 PM \| Workshop 2: MongoDB MCP \+ Copilot** Speakers: [Ade S.B](https://www.linkedin.com/in/st999/overlay/about-this-profile/),[ Venkat Cherukuri](https://www.linkedin.com/in/venkat-sai-cherukuri-71053513a), Engineering @MongoDB Connect your Copilot to MongoDB Atlas! Learn to configure the MongoDB MCP server so Copilot can explore schemas, query collections, and write aggregation pipelines from natural language. **8:00 \- 8:30 PM \| Open Discussion & More Networking** Stick around for Q&A, more networking, and honest conversations about AI in our daily workflows **Prerequisites** To participate in the hands-on workshops, please complete the following BEFORE the event: 1\.
