Tools to Organize for Success!
We all recognize that if things were better organized, people would be better off. We have all had experiences with a business or government, school or a group that was not well organized and we experience the confusion, delays and upsets of trying to deal with disorganization.
On a personal level, trying to get something started - a plan, some new bright idea you had, perhaps starting a new business - without organization can be a nightmare. Organization is a key and often missing factor in personal success. It is also essential for a flourishing family, group, organization or business. Attaining one's goals, no matter how large or small, requires a knowledge and application of organization.

Depression, Anxiety, Stress or Worry Concerns? Free Meetup Class
Depression, Anxiety, Stress and worry are real concerns when we consider mental health. What causes the overwhelming sadness, the insomnia, the frightening panic attacks, the lack of energy, the mental fatigue and nervousness experienced by so many people.
https://secure.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/2/8/1/0/600_459310256.jpeg
Even a temporary state of stress can affect our ability to reason and result in actions or decisions that have disastrous long-term results.
What is it that is holding you back and stops you from being YOU?
Quality of life depends so much on mental health. People desire happiness but authentic happiness is often short-lived. Sometimes only a dim memory from childhood. Children are known for their ability to find joy in the simplest of things. What is it that affects a person's ability to experience true happiness?
The Circumstances are the same, but the person no longer responds with positive emotions. Instead he or she may have a persistent gnawing anger, fear or sadness that depresses the consciousness and brings the person to reliance on pills or alcohol.
The change may be gradual, occurring slowly over many years or it can be sudden, triggered by a traumatic stress such as the death of a loved one or a broken heart.
The answer to these problems has been searched for for thousands of years but the problem appears to getting worse, with the rates of depression and suicide climbing alarmingly. Very few lives remain unaffected either directly or indirectly by these modern scourges.
Could it be that the modern "treatments" and "solutions" to these problems are actually making things worse? That could only occur if the people developing and using these "treatments" did not know the true underlying reason for these problems.
Today's meetup topic is based on Dianetics, The Modern Science of Mental Health by L. Ron Hubbard
We will discuss the underlying reason for depression, anxiety, fear, nervousness, unhappiness, phobias and many other unwanted emotions and reactions as revealed and is fully explained in L. Ron Hubbard's book Dianetics.
Life can become fun again, just like it was when you were a child.
Hard to Believe? Well don't believe - find out for yourself and then you will KNOW.
You have the opportunity to have all your questions answered.
Nothing in Dianetics has to be true for you unless you have observed it and it is true according to your own observation.
Today's meetup enables you to make your own observations.
Make this go right for you, RSVP yes and ensure you attend this meetup.
Know Yourself, Know Life!

**Healing Circle & Fire Ritual**
Pause. Reflect. Release.
📍 RYVE
Level 1, 38 Shafton St, Huntingdale VIC
📅 Wednesday, 22 April 2026
🕖 7:00 PM – 9:00 PM
## A SPACE TO PAUSE
Life gets heavy sometimes.
Not always in obvious ways —
but in the quiet things we carry:
Unspoken thoughts
Emotional weight
Stress, heartbreak, uncertainty
This evening is a space to slow down, breathe,
and reconnect with yourself — gently.
## WHO THIS IS FOR
This space is for you if:
• You’ve been feeling overwhelmed or mentally full
• You’ve been holding things in without space to process
• You’re seeking clarity, grounding, or emotional reset
• You want something deeper, but not overwhelming
You don’t need to be “ready” or have it all figured out.
Just come as you are.
## WHAT TO EXPECT
A small, supportive and guided experience:
• Calm and welcoming environment
• Gentle reflection and awareness practices
• Optional sharing (no pressure to speak)
• Space to simply sit, listen, and be present
• A symbolic fire ritual to close the evening
## FIRE RITUAL — LETTING GO
You’ll be invited to write down something you’re ready to release.
A thought.
A feeling.
A past story.
Through a simple fire ritual, we allow that chapter to shift and move forward.
Many people find this moment deeply grounding and freeing.
## SMALL & INTIMATE BY DESIGN
This is not a large event.
Numbers are intentionally limited
to create a space that feels safe, real, and personal.
## ABOUT YOUR HOST
Hosted by Vivienne Vu
Founder of Kismetrix \| True Connection
Vivienne creates spaces that support emotional awareness, presence,
and authentic human connection.
## 🔔 IMPORTANT NOTES
• This is a reflective group experience (not therapy or medical treatment)

• Respect, boundaries, and emotional safety are central to this space
• Tickets are limited and kept intentionally small
## WHY PEOPLE COME TO KISMETRIX

and stay for dinner at Mercure afterwards for those who would like to.
Let’s explore something new — together. 🌸

The table is booked under the name Elni.
We hope to see you!
Untangling Ties
Family can be a source of deep joy, belonging and connection. It can also be a site of pain, grief, tension and complexity. Many of us carry experiences that are difficult to navigate or make sense of, especially on our own. This is a space and time where what you’re carrying can be gently held and supported through the creative process, conversation, and being witnessed alongside others
on a similar journey.
We will begin by arriving together, with a short guided meditation
and introduction. We will then have some quiet time to explore through creative expression. This could look like making marks, painting, tearing, cutting, writing, moving or simply sitting. You are welcome to engage in any way that feels right and needed for you. Afterwards, we will open up the space for a guided conversation but sharing is optional- you can speak, ask questions, listen or just be present.
Materials are provided but please feel free to bring your own. No creative experience or skill required at all.
If you are facing financial hardship, please key in CONCESSION as a promo code for a discounted price of $25. If that is still difficult, please email me at [greenhouse.arttherapy@gmail.com.](http://greenhouse.arttherapy@gmail.com./) No one will be turned away.
**Please also note:**
* This is an art-therapy informed community-based support group, and is not intended to replace individual or group therapy, and is also not for emergency crisis support or intervention.
* If you are comfortable with me taking photos of you and/or your artwork for learning and supervision purposes, and to offer others a sense of what the workshop is like, please let me know at the start of the session. Your participation would be greatly appreciated!
Inclusive Grief Circle: Honouring Loss Through Ceremony, Community & Creativity
Read reviews from past participants [here](https://www.greenhousecreativesanctuary.com/inclusivegrief)
“Grief has never been private, it has always been communal.
Subconsciously, we are awaiting the presence of others, before we can feel safe enough to drop to our knees on the holy ground of sorrow. For the most part, grief is not a problem to be solved, not a condition to be medicated, but a deep encounter with an essential experience of being human. Grief becomes problematic when the conditions needed to help us work with grief are absent.” - Francis Weller
Our primary association with grief is the loss of a loved one but there are so many kinds of losses that don't have formal ceremonies that are important to honour. Unprocessed grief can accumulate in weight, dulling our senses and capacity for aliveness.
This is a safe, supportive space for all shapes, sizes and textures of grief- for the loss of our loved ones, for the childhood we did not get to have, for the parts of ourselves that have been rejected and exiled, for friendships and relationships with ambiguous endings, for homes and communities we are distanced from and miss, for the suffering of the world and our fellow beings.
This inclusive grief circle is also an advocacy for compassionate and attentive grief work, for reshaping our understanding of and relationship with grief. It is a holding space, a container, a time and a deep permission to acknowledge our emotions, our connections, the ways we have been touched and transformed, and our humanity.
We will make art in response to the Grief Deck, share and witness each other’s stories and journeys, and co-create a group nature mandala together.
**Please bring a jar and 8-10 similar natural objects (8 flowers or 8 sticks or 8 stones).**

* ✅ Free to attend
* ⚔️ Jugger Equipment is supplied
* 🍜 Post-training social lunch - all welcome
* ➡️ [Find us on Discord](https://discord.gg/WHnMyk56Cu)
Jugger is an exciting, mixed-gender soft combat sport. Two teams use a selection of padded foam spars to tag opponents as they aim to put the jugg (the game ball) into their opponent's goal.
**Watch Jugger being played in [this excellent short demo video](https://vimeo.com/28592980).**
Jugger Melbourne training sessions include both full games of jugger, as well as a variety of training drills designed to promote **teamwork, communication, exercise, health and fitness, and teach core game skills.**
After training we head across to Glenferrie Rd for lunch and socializing, which you are welcome (and encouraged!) to join.
**🏃♀️➡️ New Player Info / Who Can Join**
New players are always welcome! Our experienced coaches will teach you basics to get you and and swinging in no time Jugger is easy to pickup the basics while deep to master.
We have a minimum age policy of 16 years (please note, anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian), but other than that we welcome anyone of all fitness levels. Jugger is a great way to keep active, and a fun way to meet new people in a friendly and inclusive community!
**👟 How to Join a Session and What to Bring**
Joining is simple - just show up! RSVPing on Meetup or Discord is a big help as it helps us plan around expected numbers. You are also welcome to bring along any interested friends and family.
**⚔️ Jugger equipment is supplied.** We have a collection of gear to loan out to new players.
Bring a water bottle (there is a tap nearby), sunscreen, and wear comfortable clothes and shoes for running around in - and that you don't mind getting a bit dirty!
Recommend but not required items include: sunglasses, football boots, kneepads, and gloves if you have them. You don't need any of these to get started, but you may find you want them if you become a regular.
**✅ Are there any costs are involved?**
Our training sessions are **free to attend** as often as you like, we are essentially just a group of friends that meet for training and socializing on the weekend.
The Australian Jugger League has a voluntary annual membership that helps to support the sport (including maintaining equipment and paying for Meetup), and we encourage people to join once they become a regular attendee or begin attending tournaments. However there's no obligation so spend any money when you're first trying it out or just attending casually.
**➡️ External Links**
We organise our regular players through our Discord group and their attendance is not often represented in the Meetup attendance numbers (we use Meetup to reach out to new people).
Events are also (though less regularly) posted to Facebook, while event photos and videos are shared on our Instagram.

2. Non-Judgement - we respect and honor every man’s truth so that we may receive the same from others. While we may not agree on everything, we commit to respecting every man’s perspectives and engaging in honorable discussion with one another.
3. Be committed - honor your commitment to this group and to yourself. If you attend a meeting, please commit yourself fully to the meeting. Also be committed to your own journey. When we fail, we own it & clean it up.
