Reading the books are optional. Led by local Certified Professional Life Coach, Lisa Concepcion, This group provides a safe space for connection and open conversation about topics such as. * Codependency or over-giving / people pleasing * Anxious attachment * Low self-worth or self-trust * Difficulty setting boundaries * Attracting emotionally unavailable or narcissistic partners * Manifesting your ideal relationship * Reinvention after break-ups / divorce * Navigating Tricky Relationships (what to say and how to say it).

Life gets loud. This is your monthly invitation to pause. Join us for a guided meditation inside the infrared sauna at HWX Brushy Creek. We use the heat as a space to slow down—through gentle breath, loving-kindness, and quiet presence—so you can release what’s been building and return to yourself. **The experience includes:** * 30 minutes of guided meditation in the sauna * A few moments to soften, reset, and integrate **Meditation + Infrared Heat** The combination of meditation and infrared heat creates something unique— a space where the body releases and the mind settles. Some people describe it as “therapy without talking.” If you’ve never been to HOTWORX before, this is a simple and welcoming way to experience the studio—no workout required. No meditation experience needed. Just come as you are. * To keep the space intentional and comfortable, this session is limited to 5 participants. If it fills, you’re welcome to join the waitlist * Please arrive a few minutes early to complete the facility waiver **—** Guided by Sam Neseim, meditation teacher, coach, and owner of HOTWORX Brushy Creek. Sameh creates spaces where people can slow down, reconnect, and return to what’s true—integrating presence, inner awareness, and real-life leadership. Come as you are. Let the heat hold you. Let the practice meet you. **We'd love to have you there!**

In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia

We’re bringing back Adult Field Day. Last year was a good mix of competition and just hanging out, so we’re doing it again with some new games mixed in. Think team-based challenges, simple races, and a few things inspired by game shows. You don’t need to be athletic. Most of the fun is just being part of a team and getting to know people you wouldn’t normally talk to. The goal isn’t really winning. It’s meeting people, laughing a bit, and leaving knowing a few more names than when you showed up. If you stick around after, we’ll have a potluck, a bonfire, and a couple comedians in the evening. Bring: * Something to share for the potluck * Clothes you can move around in A small contribution helps keep events sustainable and ensures those who RSVP actually show up. Include your Meetup name + event name in the note. Please send $2 per person to guarantee your spot. Venmo (preferred) or PayPal @WiseUnlimitedLLC Actual links in comments below! Include your Meetup name + event name in the note.

If you enjoy knitting, crocheting, working with yarn, this is the group for you. Meet new friends, bring your projects, learn from others.
We normally meet a few times a month during the week from 6-8pm. We will occasionally meet on weekends during daytime hours.
