Come and meet like-minded people and connect over the topic as well as the book. **How can I contribute to the discussion if I haven’t read the book?** The book is simply a conversation starter - our discussions often branch out into related themes, personal experiences and broader topics of interest. Our gathering is more about socialising and engaging in decent conversations with book lovers, rather than a formal seminar. **Can I also discuss my own fav book or the book I recently read?** Absolutely! Our gatherings are all about open conversations, and we’d love to hear your thoughts on any book that’s been captivating to you. **Is this group open to everyone?** Yes - this is a friendly and inclusive group, welcoming everyone regardless of gender, sexuality, or background. The event is designed to make it easy to meet and connect with fellow book lovers in our community. **What if I'm shy about speaking in front of the group?** No pressure! You're welcome to participate in the way that feels most comfortable for you. Whether you share your views or just listen, your presence is valued. A lot of people come alone - so don't be shy!!

**Please add my WeChat** **GD-Karen. All final arrangements and event details are shared on WeChat. I will add you to a WeChat group. Remember to mention 3D Printing when you add me as I have a few WeChat groups.** Hello everyone, my name is Karen. I’ve launched a 3D-printing startup near People’s Square, and I’d like to connect with others who are interested in 3D printing—whether for technical discussions, resource sharing, or project collaboration. From time to time, I may have larger projects where partnership could benefit everyone involved. If so, I’d be glad to share both the work and the revenue. Hope to meet fellow enthusiasts soon.

🔥 What if your anxiety isn’t caused by your situation… but by how you think about it? 🧠 💡In this follow-up session, Chris Collingwood takes the conversation deeper into the cognitive processes that generate anxiety. While many people focus on managing symptoms, this session uncovers the thinking patterns, internal dialogue, and mental habits that create anxious states in the first place. By understanding how your mind constructs anxiety through specific thought loops, interpretations, and predictions, you gain the power to interrupt and transform them. This session is designed for those ready to move beyond awareness—and into precision-level mindset mastery and emotional control. 📅Join us this Sunday, May 3, for “Anxiety Transformation Pathway (Part 2): Mastering the Thinking Patterns Behind Anxiety” with Chris Collingwood, and discover how to take control of the cognitive processes that create anxiety and transform them into clarity and calm. 🎯 KEY POINTS / TAKEAWAYS FOR THE AUDIENCE ✅Understand the thinking patterns that trigger and sustain anxiety ✅Identify common cognitive distortions and mental loops ✅Learn how your internal dialogue influences emotional states ✅Discover how to interrupt anxious thinking in real time ✅Gain clarity on how perception shapes your experience ✅Build awareness of how thoughts create physiological responses 🚀 ADDITIONAL KEY POINTS / BENEFITS ✅Develop the ability to reframe and redirect anxious thoughts instantly ✅Strengthen your mental resilience and emotional regulation ✅Learn practical NLP-based tools for thought pattern transformation ✅Move from reactive thinking to intentional, empowered thinking ✅Increase confidence in handling uncertainty and future-focused fears ✅Create a more calm, focused, and resourceful mental state daily 🎙ABOUT THE SPEAKER🎙 Chris Collingwood has been involved in learning and teaching NLP since 1979.
