**Cérémonie Breathwork & Cacao :** **fin 2025 : Clôture de cycle de 9 ans.** **Dimanche 27 décembre – 18h45 à 21h00** **64 Rue des Tournelles 75003** **Inscription obligatoire : Billetweb, via le lien :** **https://www.billetweb.fr/breathwork-et-cacao53** Infos : ilariainscriptions@gmail.com La respiration connectée est une pratique de transformation profonde, qui agit par le souffle, le corps et la conscience. Il ne s’agit pas d’hyperventilation, mais d’une respiration fluide et continue — sans pause entre l’inspire et l’expire. Ce rythme ouvre un état intérieur particulier de conscience modifié, où les tensions, émotions ou mémoires accumulées peuvent se libérer naturellement. Il s’agit de libérer l’espace occupé par le passé pour retrouver notre essence vivante dans le présent — là où tout peut être recréé. Le breathwork agit en profondeur sur notre système nerveux, allégeant les automatismes de fuite, de lutte, de figement et de soumission ou recherche d’approbation. De là renaît une capacité créative, libre et ouverte face à la vie. Le Cacao soutient ce processus en douceur et en amplifie la profondeur et l'intégration. Cependant la prise de Cacao est facultative. La musique, le tambour et un toucher discret viennent soutenir la libération des nœuds énergétiques. Inspirée du Rebirthing et de la Respiration Holotropique, cette approche s’adresse à celles et ceux qui souhaitent : alléger ce qui limite leur énergie vitale, ce qui restreint leur perception et leur réponse à la vie, calmer le mental et le stress, ressentir davantage d’unité entre le corps, le cœur et l’esprit, connecter les profondeurs de leur être. La respiration connectée que je propose est une synergie intégrative entre la puissance exploratoire transpersonnelle de la respiration holotropique, et la libération émotionnelle du rebirthing. " Ce processus apparemment simple, combinant respiration, musique évocatrice et d’autres formes de son, possède un potentiel extraordinaire pour ouvrir la voie à l’exploration de tout le spectre du monde intérieur. » — Stanislav Grof Aucune expérience préalable n’est nécessaire. Chaque session est une exploration guidée et sécurisée, accompagnée par la musique, la présence, et le tambour. Participation : 50 € Participation petits budgets ( RSA, chomage ) 35 € Infos : ilariainscriptions@gmail.com ilariarubei.com @ilaria.rubei

This walking tour (in English) will take you through the most charming corners of Montmartre — the hill of painters and poets. You’ll hear stories about the artists who lived and created here in the early 1900s — Picasso, Toulouse-Lautrec, Modigliani, and others — and discover how Montmartre became the heart of artistic Paris. 💳 Price: €10 per person After the tour, we’ll go for a cozy lunch nearby — they make a great French onion soup 😋

Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating. Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. If the weather cooperates we will be meeting in the patio. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who want to discuss international travel and culture, and anyone who enjoys getting together for good conversations."

Step into 2026 with intention, clarity, and a creative practice designed to help you see yourself more clearly. In this special Confidence Lab session, we’ll explore confidence as something you can curate - through the choices you make, the qualities you amplify, and the story you choose to step into. We’ll start with a short guided reflection to surface the traits, habits, and energies you want to nurture in the coming year. Then, using collage materials selected specifically for this workshop, you’ll translate those insights into a visual composition that represents the version of yourself you’re ready to grow toward. This isn’t about resolutions or perfection. It’s about crafting a grounded, imaginative vision of your next chapter - one that feels honest, energizing, and fully yours. All materials are provided. Just bring yourself (and a friend) and a willingness to explore what confidence can look like for you in 2026. **Featured Partner: Columbus Collage Collective** The Columbus Collage Collective was started in August of 2023 by Emily Morgan (aka Lovely But Dead) and Douglas Cuckler (aka Wonder Doug) as a place for collage enthusiasts to gather and create art together. The collective has since become a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with the mission to hold free or low-cost collage events across central Ohio. The CCC welcomes all artists of all backgrounds and skill levels and encourages folks to take this time to step away from everyday existence and create art with people who share a love for this dynamic art form. All materials—magazines, scissors, craft knives, glue, paper, cardboard, and more—are provided, so there's no need to bring anything at all (though you're welcome to bring a friend or a favorite tool if you'd like!). We also encourage folks to take home magazines and materials from our events to support continued creativity! Find us on Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/columbuscollagecollective/](https://www.instagram.com/columbuscollagecollective/) Register or sign up for the newsletter at [https://www.columbuscollagecollective.com/](https://www.columbuscollagecollective.com/) **What is Confidence Lab?** Confidence Lab is a monthly community experience for bold, thoughtful leaders building confidence from the inside out. Whether you’re launching a business, leading a team, navigating change, or simply striving to show up more fully—you belong here. Our work demands clarity, courage, and conviction—but the pace of daily life can erode our sense of self. Confidence Lab creates space to reflect, reconnect, and grow with others doing purpose-driven work. It’s designed for entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, creatives, corporate professionals, activists, and anyone ready to lead with authenticity and impact. ***Please note:*** *All are welcome! If cost is a concern, please use promo code PUBLIC to access a free ticket—we want you to join us.*

Come and join our lively Japanese language meetup, where Japanese language learners and native speakers come together to learn, play, and connect. We’ll practice through fun games and interactive conversation in a relaxed, welcoming environment. Whether you’re just starting out, more advanced, or a native speaker who enjoys helping others, everyone is encouraged to join and participate. After the library we'll take a leisurely walk together to get food/drinks. There are many options around including North Market Bridge Park. It's a perfect opportunity to continue our conversations and enjoy each other's company over a meal.

**Calling all queer crochet enthusiasts;** I am a visual artist located in Columbus that is searching for people who may want to gather while also participating in creating a piece of artwork. My goal is to spend time enjoying one another’s company while making a work of art that will be displayed within our community. I plan to teach people to crochet (if unfamiliar) while also inviting current fiber artists to join us for some much-needed social interaction. There are no expectations from those who attend, materials will be included, and any amount of participation is welcome! If you have a favorite crochet hook or current project you are welcome to bring that along too! The primary goal is to foster a safe space for our community to chat, create and be. For further information please email [landerknits@outlook.com.](http://landerknits@outlook.com.) \*This will be our first meeting, bring friends and make new ones. Come as you are and make along side other like-minded folks.

We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Sunday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at noon on Sundays. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 12:00 - quick intros. 12:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 1:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 1-1:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible. See you at The Café on Sunday!
