Men, We are now gathering via ZOOM. We gather together to share a deeper connection to ourselves and to the people in our lives. Join this group if you have pondered these questions or others like them: How do I show up in the world? What blocks me from achieving my dreams? How can I become a better partner, son, father, brother, and man in the world? All men are welcome to bring themselves and their life experiences to this circle, where we truly learn from each other. Participation is completely voluntary, and confidentiality is paramount. We're not affiliated with any religious or political organizations -- all beliefs are welcome here. We meet every 1st and 3rd Monday. Meetings are free and we encourage you to join us regardless of your previous experience with men's work. IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS: Circling is a practice that is most effective when everyone shows up fully present. Please arrive well rested, nourished, and with a clear and unaltered mind (this includes not having alcohol or cannabis beforehand). Please also note that this is not a therapeutic setting, and the facilitators are not trained counselors. If you have needs for a trained counselor, this practice should not be considered a substitute for any recommended care by a trained professional. If you signed up but are unable to attend, please make sure to update your RVSP status, even if it's last minute. If you end up on the waiting list, please check your status as the event approaches, as spots are likely to open up. Plan to arrive on time, as your timeliness helps ensure the flow of the meeting is not interrupted. Please stay for the full duration of the event. If you have a conflict that requires you to leave early, inform one of the organizers prior to the start of the event. • If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to ask one of the organizers. TO REGISTER: Please RSVP on Meetup to reserve your seat and to help us to plan for the group. Please change your RSVP if your plans change! TO CONTACT THE ORGANIZERS: kellys412@hotmail.com

MeetUp Group Background: I am a Culver City local, acupuncturist and owner of Gentle Way Acupuncture, Star Urmston LAc. I have a deep love for the sweetness of the Culver City Area, as well as the ancient art of qi gong.... so why not combine the two? Ever heard of Tai Qi? Well, Qi Gong is very similar. It is breathing and moving practice rooted in the ancient wisdom of the Martial Arts and Taoist - Chinese Medicine. It is a way of refining and cultivating oneself and, most of all, enjoying the incredible beauty of the present moment. The purpose of this group is to share basic qi gong exercises in a natural setting, as is traditional. You are invited to gather with us in the park and enjoy waking up and cultivating your energy. I will provide qi gong instruction in a playful, free form way to connect to the energy within and all around us. I will also give traditionally rooted instruction in the wonderful and foundational qi gong practice called "The Ten Pieces of Silk," and advanced Meridian Cleanse Exercises. This is a superb daily practice for working with basic health promoting breathing and moving exercises. Hope to see you here : ). Warmly, -Star Urmston LAc

We'd like to invite you to a new kind of Arise and Shine Activity. We are creating virtual conversations to share positive energy, hope and inspiration in a different way. Each week, we'll begin with a general discussion about each other's well-being and then in the second part, we share thoughts on the latest chapters of a book we're all reading together. You can join us at any time even if you haven't read the book and members have found they can still get a lot out of the discussion. We choose books based on the consensus of all the members of the group at the time when we finish each book. All the books we read are related to healthy living, mindfulness, mental health, and overall well-being and everyone is open to making suggestions. We want to create a safe space for everyone and so we ask that anyone who joins us agrees to keep what is shared confidential. Also, we would like to state that we, the organizers, are not mental health professionals and are simply people who feel passionately about creating a community around mental health, physical fitness and sharing positive energy. Due to restrictions on the length of free zoom calls we will only be keeping the line open for 30 minutes. The zoom link will be made available to you when you RSVP to this event and we look forward to connecting with you soon!

Welcome to the The Woman’s Circle! The Woman’s Circle began as a supportive offering during the period of the global pandemic, and has now grown into a warm, fun and nurturing space for inner connection and friendship. Each circle shares a movement, meditation or self-healing practice, and is an opportunity to take a collective breath in sisterhood, providing a helpful pause in your week to recenter and reflect. We meet every Thursday evening 8-9pm PST, over Zoom. This is a free event, although donations are gratefully welcomed! Join our online women's circle community on Mighty Networks where our weekly meditations are posted [here](https://mothertreehealingarts.mn.co/plans/279845?bundle_token=c7ef2f03c9d722bd332dfbb9f9529ca1&utm_source=manual). What to expect: Each Circle works to a similar format starting with the opportunity for introductions. You will then be guided through a movement, meditation or breath practice, to help open and relax the body and mind, and release anything from the day. We may discuss an inspiration point, something to reflect on and how it relates to our lives. Following this, the circle is opened to share reflections and experiences. How to sign-up: All new members are invited to a personal meet and greet 10 minute zoom meeting. This gives an opportunity to share more about the circle. To sign up please visit: www.jesslakin.com/woman-community After completing the waiver, look out for an email with available appointments for the meet and greet. Please note, I am unable to admit you to the meeting before the meet and greet, so please prepare to sign-up early and preferably before 6.00pm on Thursday's to give adequate time to arrange the meet and greet. The meet and greet is a one time meeting, after which you will receive the women's circle zoom links by email. These are sent out around 5pm each Thursday afternoon. If you have been to the circle previously, and would like to attend but you are not on the mailing list please email me directly at connect@jesslakin.com. Any issues with registering, or for general questions please reach out. I look forward to connecting! Warm wishes, Jess Lakin

Over time I'm hoping to organize a hike to all the Franklin County Metro Parks. This is the first one so if you're interested jump in! We'll start with the Canopy Walk, a cool feature of this park. Climb 100 stairs to the top - or take the elevator if stairs aren't your thing. At the top there are a bunch of things to play on - a rope bridge, a fireman pole that we can slide down - and more! About fifteen minutes there and we'll head to the natural trail, Buttonbush, Maple and Beech Trail for 2.2 miles then do a 1.7 mile loop on the paved Greenway Trail. We'll be passing our cars as we transition if you only want to do the first loop, or the second loop. Pace of around 3.5 mph but no one left behind. If there is an interest we can grab lunch nearby afterward.

Let’s walk the gardens and enjoy what has spring has on display.

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!

Mental Health, how do you understand it? How can you improve it? How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went? Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence? Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp. This group is hosted by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
