Domenica mattina, alle 11, nel verde di Villa Torlonia, ci prendiamo un’ora. Un’ora per rallentare il ritmo della settimana, rientrare nel corpo, respirare con più attenzione. Inizieremo con una pratica di yoga accessibile, per sciogliere tensioni e ritrovare presenza, e lasceremo poi spazio alla meditazione, senza forzature, senza aspettative. Non serve esperienza, non serve “saper fare”. Basta arrivare. Il contributo è di 10€. Porta con te un tappetino e qualcosa di semplice ma essenziale: disponibilità a fermarti, anche solo per un momento. Ci vediamo lì!

Il **Quartiere Coppedè** è uno dei luoghi più misteriosi e affascinanti di Roma: un vero museo a cielo aperto, ricco di simboli esoterici, richiami medievali, gotici, rinascimentali e liberty. Durante questa visita guidata a piedi, il Dott. Marco Lo Muscio, direttore della Casa Museo Wunderkammer, accompagnerà i partecipanti alla scoperta delle simbologie nascoste del quartiere: api, leoni, aquile, arieti, rane, grifoni, cavalieri, elementi alchemici e massonici che rendono il Coppedè unico in Europa. Un percorso affascinante e coinvolgente, pensato per chi ama l'arte, la storia e i luoghi fuori dal comune. **Sabato 14 Marzo**: Due turni di visite: * **ore 15.00** * **ore 16.15** Appuntamento: **via Dora 2**, sotto il grande arco • 15 € a persona Prenotazioni: 349 4030660 (anche WhatsApp) [rivendel7@gmail.com](mailto:rivendel7@gmail.com "rivendel7@gmail.com") [https://www.wunderkammer-roma.com/quartiere-coppede](https://www.wunderkammer-roma.com/quartiere-coppede)/ \- RAI 2 ha girato un servizio sul Coppedè ed il museo Wunderkammer con il Dott\.

La differenza con le altre visite è che il Dott. Lo Muscio è anche il creatore della Casa-Museo Wunderkammer nello stile del quartiere ed è poi una visita fatta con l'entusiasmo di un artista dato che il Maestro Lo Muscio è anche un impirtante musicista internazionale! Da consigliare assolutamente.*" (Marta Giordani)

Whether you’re seeking stress relief, personal growth, or community, our groups offer everyone a unique and welcoming environment. ## **Why Join?** * **Improve Mental & Physical Well-Being** – Movement, nature, and supportive conversations reduce stress and promote balance. * **Feel Less Alone** – Build genuine connections with like-minded people in a safe, welcoming space. * **Gain Clarity & Perspective** – Step outside daily routines and into a space designed for personal growth and reflection. ## **The Ideal Group Leader** The ideal group leader * Has a born-in passion for mental health, movement, connecting with nature and building community. * Has 5 extra hours per week to dedicate to a meaningful cause for at least one year.

We believe mental health should be accessible, community-driven, and rooted in nature. Join us and take the first step toward a more connected, grounded, and supported version of yourself. ### **Why Our Groups are Donation-Based** Our Outdoor Movement Groups are made possible through a donation-based model. This approach allows us to keep our events accessible to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances, while also ensuring that we can continue expanding our reach. It’s a great way to pay it forward and support the growth of this beautiful mission! Every contribution helps us: * **Cover Essential Costs** – Donations allow us to pay essential legal, marketing, insurance, and admin costs as well as nourish the important people who run the organization. * **Grow Our Mission** – With your support, we can bring these healing experiences to thousands more people in the future and execute our long term plan to expand across the USA, affecting up to 500,000 people per year.
