Unisciti a noi per un meetup in presenza all’aria aperta, pensato per rallentare, riconnetterci con la natura e riscoprire il valore delle cose semplici, come camminare, respirare aria fresca e creare spazio per un miglior equilibrio tra vita e lavoro. Sarà una passeggiata rilassata in un contesto naturale, dove potremo goderci il momento, entrare in connessione con gli altri e condividere conversazioni significative. Durante il percorso, ci fermeremo nei punti che ci ispirano di più, dando a tutti la possibilità di scattare qualche foto. Se hai una macchina fotografica puoi portarla, ma anche il telefono andrà benissimo. Più che una semplice camminata, questo incontro sarà un’occasione per creare community, conoscerci meglio e riflettere insieme su temi legati al life coaching, all’equilibrio personale e al benessere. Che tu stia cercando aria fresca, connessioni autentiche, ispirazione creativa o semplicemente una pausa dalla routine, sei il benvenuto.

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!

**Porta un libro che ti ha aiutato/a a stare meglio.** Metti un segnalibro sulla pagina che ti ha cambiato qualcosa. Non dire quale. Non dire perché. **È tipo un book club con il turbo. È qualcosa di più bello.** È scoprire cosa aiuta le persone a stare bene — e cosa potrebbe far stare meglio anche te. Con una pillola pratica su come portare quel concetto nelle tue relazioni reali. **Cosa portare:** un libro che ti ha fatto stare meglio con un segnalibro che indica un passaggio che può far stare bene anche qualcun altro, in qualsiasi ambito della vita; voglia di leggere e di stare bene; una copertina o un telo. **Dove:** Villa Pamphilj — ore 18:00. Riceverai l'indicazione del punto esatto via mail. **Costo: gratuito.** Cos'è l'Atelier delle Relazioni & Strategie Umane? [Clicca qui](https://sites.google.com/view/atelierrelazionieestrategie/)

Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event!

Here are complete details and our plan for this event: FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. For this event, our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces.

LOCATION: Faith Mission – Grant Kitchen is located at 245 N. Grant Ave. Enter the kitchen at Dock 1 (in the back of the building), indicated in the attached map. On-site parking in the adjacent lot and street parking is available in the surrounding area. Below are some links / attachments with additional info/details: IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please try to update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve. Our Partner Agency for this event is Lutheran Social Services! A huge THANK YOU to all of YOU for volunteering at this (and any of our previous) CMG Gives Back events! Should be a good/fun/meaningful time together, Dan

In *City Lights*, Chaplin's Little Tramp meets a blind girl selling flowers who mistakes him for a wealthy man. When he learns that an operation may restore her sight, he sets off to earn the money she needs to have the surgery. He also befriends an alcoholic millionaire who only recognizes him when he is drunk. When the blind girl and her grandmother fall behind in the rent and face eviction, he tries working and even enters a boxing competition to raise the money they need. Regarded as Chaplin's masterpiece, *City Lights* has been ranked on more than seventeen "100 greatest movies of all time" lists. Orson Welles cited it as his favorite picture. *City Lights* is available for streaming on Amazon Prime, Hulu, HBOMax, Tubi and PlutoTV. The Columbus Library lists three copies on blu-ray and eight copies on DVD. Watch the movie on your own, then join us upstairs at East Market to discuss the film. If you want more, *Unknown Chaplin* is a three-episode lost-footage documentary available on Youtube. It covers his time on *City Lights* beginning at the twenty-six minute mark of episode two: https://youtu.be/f8960Uc15hI?t=1558
