**Atelier de Constellations systémiques et animiques.** **Dimanche 27 decembre** **14h30-18h00** **Inscription nécessaire via la billetterie** **https://www.billetweb.fr/constellations24** **Adresse : Yoga Searcher, 64 rue des Tournelles 75003** Pour toutes informations supplémentaires, à : ilariainscriptions@gmail.com ✨ L’atelier de constellations sera suivi d’un atelier de **breathwork & cacao.** C’est un moment particulièrement puissant pour faire circuler l’énergie mobilisée et intégrer en profondeur ce qui aura été touché et révélé pendant les constellations. Pour celles et ceux qui choisissent de participer aux deux ateliers, une réduction de 10 € est offerte. > « Quand l’ordre est respecté, l’amour peut circuler. » > *Les fondements de l’amour*, Bert Hellinger **🌱 Les constellations systémiques (familiales et animiques) nous invitent à explorer les dynamiques relationnelles :** **– entre nous et le monde,** **– entre nous et les autres,** **– mais aussi entre différentes dimensions de notre être.** **Nous pouvons consteller la relation que nous entretenons avec nos désirs ou une aspiration précise,** **avec nos peurs ou un blocage identifié,** **avec notre corps, ou encore avec les autres.** **Le travail vécu dans une constellation agit par résonance sur tous : le constellé, les représentants et même les observateurs.** **Par le soutien du collectif, une prise de conscience profonde peut émerger, révélant des nœuds intérieurs souvent à l’origine de nos expériences de vie.** **Grâce à la mise en représentation du système, il devient possible de comprendre l’origine d’un processus,** **de réintégrer des informations manquantes,** **et de rétablir peu à peu l’« ordre du système ».** *** **Comment se déroule une constellation de groupe ?** * **Le constellé est au centre : il apporte une question claire et concrète, un nœud de vie appelant à une évolution.** * **Les représentants, choisis dans le groupe, sont placés dans l’espace. Par leur ressenti, ils entrent en connexion avec le champ du sujet et donnent vie aux dynamiques sous-jacentes.** * **Le facilitateur (ou constellateur) garde l’espace, accompagne et oriente le processus, afin de permettre au mouvement de révéler ce qui cherche à se dire.** **Les représentants expriment ce qu’ils perçoivent, ce qui met en lumière les émotions, les dynamiques relationnelles ou les mémoires qui agissent dans l’inconscient du système.** **De là, un chemin s’ouvre vers la redéfinition du système, une transformation qui agit en profondeur, non seulement pour le constellé, mais pour chacun des participants.** *** **Une constellation est bien plus qu’un travail individuel :** **c’est une expérience collective de libération, où chacun reçoit, à la mesure de son ouverture et de son intention partagée.** **Participation :** **Tarif constellé, pour faire sa propre constellation : 100 euros.** **Tarif représentants et observateurs : 25 euros.** **Chaque constellation dure environ 1h à 1h30 et agit comme un déclencheur de transformation pour tous les participants.** **Aucune connaissance préalable n'est requise.** **Je vais expliquer en détail le déroulement au début de la constellation.** **Nous identifierons ensemble le thème de la constellation préalablement par le biais d'un court entretien.** **Joie de plonger ensemble** **Avec amour** **Ilaria Rubei** ilariarubei.com

Okay, you (at least some of you) asked for it — here it is... **"An Evening with DXO Labs (NIK Collection 8)"** For many, many years, the NIK Collection of photo editing tools has been the coveted add-on of choice for many photographers. To know the story of the NIK Collection is to know happiness, angst, celebration, and innovation. But more of that at the meeting! I will spend a couple of hours going through the most useful tools in the NIK Collection and showing how I use them in my editing workflow. If you aspire to elevate your editing skills and produce better-edited images, this set of tools is worth a look! Meeting Schedule: 1. 6:00 - Introduction, Meet New Members 2. 6:10 - Old Business 3. 6:20 - New Business 4. 6:30 - Pre-Shoot Briefing/Education 5. 7:15 - Break 6. 7:30 - Image Critique 7. 8:00 - Adjourn Pre-Shoot Brief/Education: NIK Collection 8 Image Critique: Previous Photoshoot Images (iPhone images and Christmas Cards). If anyone has images they would like critiqued, please provide them at the beginning of the meeting. Providing Images for Critique: For now, I will collect images at the beginning of the meeting on a USB memory stick. My computer has USB-C ports, so a USB-C memory stick or one with dual (USB-C / USB-A) ports will be needed. Images should follow these format rules: JPG - 80% quality or higher 132 dpi resolution 2048 pixels across the long edge Embedded colorspace - sRGB

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!

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.*
