Join us for a beautiful guided meditation & reflection circle, led by meditation teacher and life coach Veerle Beelen Da Costa David.

Have you ever caught yourself wondering…

“What’s next for me?”

Maybe you’ve outgrown a chapter of your life, but the next one hasn’t become clear yet. You can feel that something is shifting. But the more you try to think your way to the answer, the further away it seems.

If that sounds familiar, this evening is for you.

Instead of searching for answers outside yourself, you’ll be guided inward to reconnect with the quiet place that already knows what you need.

Veerle often calls it your hidden gem: the inner wisdom that’s always been there, patiently waiting beneath the noise, overthinking, and expectations.

Whether you’re navigating a career change, a life transition, or simply feeling ready for something new, this experience will help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and leave with greater clarity and a renewed sense of direction.

Veerle’s guided meditations have been listened to more than 25k times by people around the world, and she’s excited to bring one of her signature experiences exclusively to the BelongOz community.

#### ✨ What you’ll experience

• A deeply relaxing guided meditation to reconnect with yourself and your next chapter
• Guided journaling to capture the insights that arise
• A warm and supportive reflection circle where you can share and connect

You’ll leave feeling calmer, more grounded, and more connected to yourself than when you arrived.

#### ✨ What to prepare
- Find a quiet space where you won’t be disturbed.
- Wear headphones for the most immersive experience.
- Have a notebook and pen ready for journaling.
- Bring an open mind — and no meditation experience is required.
Whether this is your very first meditation or you’ve been practising for years, you’re warmly welcome.
