Art Therapy

Join us for a 2-hour acrylic painting workshop where you'll experiment freely and walk away with a stunning piece that's totally, uniquely yours — no experience needed, just curiosity. In this relaxed and playful session, you'll design your own dancer under the step-by-step guidance from a local artist. Learn fun techniques, explore your personal style, and let loose a little. Bold, soft, textured, or wildly experimental — it's entirely your call. This is so much more than a painting class. It's a social, inspiring experience filled with color, laughs, and creative freedom. You'll leave with a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, fresh inspiration, and some really lovely memories. **Meetup Special 🎨** Get **10% off** when you book directly through heycreate — use code **MEETUP10** at checkout. 👉 [Book your spot here](https://www.heycreate.ch/offers/tnzerin-83OPQT0sQMOANpgCLL3cqw?utm_source=meetup) **What's included** Canvas, paints, brushes, apron, and everything else you need — plus professional step-by-step guidance and your finished artwork to take home. **What to bring** Clothes you don't mind getting a little paint on (aprons provided, but maybe skip the favourite white silk top).

Bei der Klangschalen-Meditation wirst du eingeladen, dich hinzulegen, loszulassen und einzutauchen. Lass die kraftvollen Schwingungen der Tibetischen Klangschalen dein ganzes Wesen durchdringen. Lass dich ganz mühelos in einen meditativen Zustand sinken und erlebe wie sich dein Körper tief entspannt, deine Gedanken verstummen und deine Seele auf Reisen gehen darf. Klangschalen werden seit Jahrhunderten in fernöstlichen Traditionen in spirituellen Praktiken und Ritualen verwendet. In der Klangtherapie werden Klangschalen und andere archaische Instrumente auch zu Heilungszwecken eingesetzt, da unser eigenes Energiefeld mit der Schwingung der Klangschalen in Resonanz geht und damit wieder in Balance gebracht werden kann. Es sind keine Vorkenntnisse nötig. Dieser Kurs eignet sich auch für Anfänger. Austausch: Fr 40.- Bitte melde dich an unter www.layabodywork.com/workshops \>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\>\> SINGING BOWL MEDITATION Lay down, let go and sink in. Let the powerful vibration of the tibetan singing bowls help you to get into a meditative state and feel how your whole body relaxes, how your thoughts fall silent and how your spirit goes on a journey. For centuries singing bowls have been used in eastern traditions in spiritual practices and rituals. In Sound Therapy these hand crafted instruments are also used to rebalance our energy body and can support healing processes on many levels of our beeing. No experience needed. This class is also open for beginners. Exchange: Fr. 40.- Please sign up on www.layabodywork.com/workshops

La séance débute par un temps d’ancrage et de connexion à la respiration, permettant de se recentrer et d’arriver pleinement dans le corps. Des mouvements doux et progressifs viennent ensuite mobiliser les articulations et réveiller le corps en conscience. Chaque mouvement est accompagné par la respiration, invitant à bouger en conscience au rythme du souffle. Cette séance offre un véritable espace pour ralentir, se reconnecter et prendre soin à la fois du corps et de l’esprit. On apprend à s’écouter, à respecter ses limites et à être attentif aux messages du corps. L’accent est mis sur la connexion entre le mouvement et les ressentis, plutôt que sur la performance. Des exercices ciblés permettent de fluidifier l’énergie dans le corps, de le rééquilibrer et de développer force, équilibre et mobilité, tout en conservant une approche douce et respectueuse. La séance se termine par un retour au calme et un moment de relaxation, afin d’intégrer pleinement les bienfaits de la pratique. Un cours idéal pour renforcer le corps en douceur, améliorer la conscience corporelle et cultiver une présence attentive dans le mouvement.

Weg vom Bildschirm und von vorgegebenen Lösungen – hinein in die unbegrenzte Kreativität der realen Welt! In diesem Kurs lernen die Kinder auch auf spielerische Weise, ihre Umwelt wahrzunehmen, zu schätzen und darzustellen. Ausserdem tasten sie sich an ihre eigenen Vorlieben und Begabungen heran und erleben die Begeisterung, eigenhändig Kunstwerke zu erschaffen. Unter professioneller Beratung und individueller Betreuung wird in kleinen Gruppen (ausser in den Schulferien) gearbeitet. **Einstieg und Probeunterricht:** ist jederzeit möglich. **Auskunft und Anmeldung:** marianas@gmx.ch \* 078 628 78 24 \* www.marianas.ch **Dienstags in Zürich**, GBMZ Sieglungslokal an der Hohlstrasse 197, von 17:00 bis 19:00 Uhr **Freitags in Illnau:** von 13:15 bis 15:15 Uhr und von 15:30 bis 17:30Uhr und **samstags in Illnau:** von 10:00 bis 12:00 Uhr **Kurskosten** (inkl.

Whether you are looking to build a rock-solid core, recover from an injury, or simply move with more intention, this class is for you. This is a specialized **Clinical Pilates** session designed for men or women of all ages and fitness levels who want to prioritize their long-term health. In our intimate, **4-person maximum** sessions at **Physio&Co. in Zurich**, we move away from "one-size-fits-all" workouts. We focus on the deep stabilizers—the core and pelvic floor—that support your spine and improve every other way you move. * **Functional Core Strength:** Building stability from the inside out. * **Pelvic Floor Health:** Essential for everyone (men and women!) to improve athletic performance and daily comfort. * **Postural Alignment:** Reversing the "office slouch" and reducing back or hip tension. * **Clinical Precision:** Form-focused movement with the individual attention of a private session. **Why the 4-person limit?** I keep these groups small so I can offer real-time corrections and tailor the moves to who is in the room. You get professional-grade coaching in a relaxed, relatable Zurich studio. ### **The Details** 📍 **Location:** Physio & Co. (right next to Stockerstrasse tram stop) **What to bring:** Just yourself! All mats and props are provided. **Investment:** 45 CHF ✅ **Booking:** Please book directly on www.physio&co.ch **(only 4 spots per class, so please book before arriving).**

Hi everyone! I’m organizing a relaxed art-inspired walk, from Stettbach to Zurich (around 6 km), crossing the forest and enjoying beautiful natural surroundings. 🐕 For everyone, kids and doggies are very welcome! Along the way, we’ll pass by a local farm where we can: 🐄 See and gently interact with cows and calves. 🐎 Spot horses and birds. 🥛🥚 Buy fresh farm products like eggs and raw milk (bring a bottle). 📓 This is not a class, but an opportunity to slow down, observe, and get inspired by nature. You’re welcome to bring a small sketchbook or just take photos—whatever feels natural to you. No experience needed. The idea is to walk at an easy pace, take breaks, chat, and enjoy the moment together. A few days before I will check the weather and confirm the event. 😄I have seen tourists in flip-flops going up a mountain. Please bring comfortable shoes! Have a wonderful day and sign up Marga

Welcome to the Art School - 20's & 30's artists Meetup group! This is a community for young artists who are passionate about exploring different mediums and techniques in the world of art. Whether you're a painter, sculptor, photographer, or mixed media artist, this group is the perfect place to connect with like-minded individuals, have a space to work on your craft, and showcase your work. Let's inspire and support each other on our artistic journeys! Whether you're a novice or a seasoned artist, all skill levels are welcome. Join us and unleash your creativity! This month we will be discussing **Frank Santoro**, an American cartoonist, painter, and comics critic known for his expressive lines, experimental page layouts, and vibrant use of color. His graphic novels—including *Storeyville*, *Pompeii*, and *Pittsburgh*—blend personal storytelling with innovative visual structure, often exploring memory, place, and relationships. In addition to his comics, Santoro has been an influential voice in comics education and criticism, co-founding the magazine *ComicsComics* and creating the **Santoro Correspondence Course for Comic Book Makers**, which has helped train and inspire a new generation of cartoonists. Afterwards, we will have time to work on our individual art projects, hang out, and if anyone is interested in feedback on their work, there will be time for that as well.

Why are we unhappy? Where does emotional pain come from? Studies show that people who suffer from long-term emotional pain have painful experiences in their lives that were never fully resolved in their mind. In other words, there were issues in the past that were not completely dealt with. This can include abuse in childhood, breakups, divorce, death of a loved one, to name a few. How do you know whether you have gotten over something painful? Here is an easy test: Do you still have attention on what had happened to you? For instance, do you still find yourself thinking about something painful that you went through? If you are, then you are not over it. In fact, in severe cases, people find themselves playing a "tape" in their mind over and over again. So how do you heal from your past? How do you stop the "tape" playing in your mind? In this meeting, you will learn a technique to help you with that. Come join us! Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology life improvement center.

Join Neurospicy Columbus at the Stauff's for coffee and then a stroll through the Book Loft nearby! This will be a friendly chat for like minded individuals with Autism and/or ADHD (or somewhere on the Neurodiverse Spectra).

This is an in-person meeting. Did you know that unwanted emotions like loneliness, sadness, hopelessness, anger, fear, anxiety, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not chemical imbalance in your brain due to some nebulous chemical reactions by chance. Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. For instance, let's say you are already carrying a huge load on your back, then you cannot take on much more, but, let's say something else happens to you, such as the difficulties from the Pandemic, then the resultant combined weight on you can take you over the edge, kind of like the straw that break the camel's back. When this happens, people's attention usually goes to the straw that was added, but actually the majority of the weight had come from the huge load that were already there, holding a person down and causing a person issues. So how do you remove the huge load that was already there? How do you lighten them up? Is it possible to get rid of them? That is what this meeting will be all about. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

We are recruiting new group leaders for virtual men's groups! Our primary groups are outdoor movement groups, but we are launching virtual groups for the state of Ohio and beyond and the groups will move outside in the spring, creating room for men's groups, women's groups and coed groups all over the country. Read below to learn about our groups and click the links at the bottom to apply. ### **What is an Outdoor Empowerment Group?** Our Outdoor Movement & Community Empowerment Groups are simple, guided experiences designed to help people reconnect with nature, themselves, and others. We combine some form of movement (hike, walk, run, bike, yoga, workout) and meaningful conversation within a simple community circle to create a space where individuals can support each other while prioritizing mental and physical well-being. 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. Yes, you can leave any organization at any time and we can also ask you to leave, but we are building with legacy in mind and we need people who can commit and be ALL IN on this mission to build with us. * Is independently financially stable with the ability to volunteer with no expectation of pay. This is a deeply beautiful journey of service that all participants commit to at Speak Your Mind. * An ability to manage groups with high emotional intelligence and desire for human connection. * An ability to self-motivate and market/promote their group on Facebook and other social platforms. * Nature informed therapy or clinical therapists/psychologists a plus. ## **Our Impact**  Since launching, we have helped thousands find support, connection, and healing through our Outdoor Movement Groups. 100% of participants surveyed have reported: * A noticeable improvement in mental clarity and emotional well-being. * An increase in social connection and a sense of belonging. * Said they would return again. 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. By choosing to contribute, you’re not just leading an event—you’re helping build a mental health movement that supports long-term well-being and connection for all during a severe mental health epidemic. ## **Come Join Us!** We’d love to have you be part of this growing community of people prioritizing their mental health, movement, and connection. 🔹 **Visit Our Website to Learn More:** https://speakyourmind.men/joinusoutside 🔹 **Apply Here to Lead Your Own Group!** – https://form.jotform.com/taketimespeakyourmind/sym-group-leader-application 🔹 **Support the mission**: If you resonate with the mission and want to support, feel free to join a group before applying or donate to help us reach our goals to help more people!
