Calling 斜槓族:人家上班,我們平日一起吃個下午茶,chill 一 chill
經驗原因也好,人心改變也罷,現在越來越人不滿足於打一份工,可能是希望增加財政來源,改變收入結構。
斜槓族只適用於瀟灑、沒有負擔的年輕一代?還是年紀大了反而會想與時間競賽,勇敢嘗試更多?
既然有空,不如出來飲杯咖啡,說說你的看法?
有興趣請聯絡我,WhatsApp 90356039. 期待與你見面聊聊😉

Urban Krav Maga Hong Kong @ New Era Martial Club Quarry Bay
Brand New Weekly Classes @ New Era Martial Club Quarry Bay
Urban Krav Maga is a defence system that:
The Urban Krav Maga aim is to equip the student as soon as possible to defend themselves against the most common attacks they may face. Once the student has mastered these techniques more difficult scenarios are addressed to build a support system that will enable the student to deal with almost any situation. By teaching concepts through techniques, students are taught how to read a situation and react/respond accordingly, even if they have not experienced that exact same scenario in training. Giving students the ability to improvise is an important element of our training, this is not like learning a kata.
Awareness, avoidance and pre-emption are placed high in order of priority but we recognise that you can’t always avoid a potential violent encounter. We teach everything that is needed for self defence when it’s necessary in all environments, including, highly confined, crowded spaces, cars, shopping centres, nightclubs, buses etc.
We make no apologies for our civilian approach to street violence and our subsequent breakaway from the original military solutions in dealing with armed attackers: a knife defence based on somebody attacking like they were making a committed bayonet thrust will not be so effective as one that is based on somebody stabbing with an aggressive pumping/piston motion with fast recoil when we are dealing with today’s street. As stated we retain the term Krav Maga as our approach reflects that on which Krav Maga was originally founded and we are, of course, indebted to the experiences we have gained training with the various Israeli Fighting Systems

Conscious Choice: Taking the Wheel from the Autopilot
*“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.” — Adapted from Carl Jung*
**What is a recurring pattern in your life that you’ve always chalked up to "just the way things are," but might actually be a choice you didn't know you were making?**
We all like to believe we are the conscious authors of our own lives. We wake up, pursue our careers, nurture relationships, and make daily decisions with the conviction that we are fully in the driver's seat. For the most part, this belief keeps us moving forward, allowing us to build our lives with a sense of control and purpose.
But sometimes, we notice strange echoes. We find ourselves repeating the same frustrating relationship dynamics, reacting with familiar anxieties, or following well-meaning expectations we've never paused to examine. We hit invisible walls and call it "bad luck," or we feel inexplicably stuck and chalk it up to "fate."
Conscious Choice is the profound, sometimes unsettling process of looking under the hood. It is the act of checking our "blind spots"—the hidden impulses, unexamined fears, and borrowed beliefs that run our minds on autopilot—and asking: Am I actually making a free decision right now, or am I just following a default setting?
Join us at this Curious Souls Cafe gathering to explore the brave, liberating work of turning off the autopilot. We will discuss how to untangle our authentic desires from our passed-down habits, the courage it takes to face our hidden drivers, and the profound freedom of finally taking the steering wheel.
Bring your stories, a brave spirit, and an open mind. Let's explore what happens when we finally step out of the background noise and make a choice that is entirely our own.
**Inviting those who...**
🪞 Are curious about the hidden drivers behind their daily routines and major life choices.
🧭 Feel like they are repeating certain life patterns and want to figure out how to break the cycle.
🗝️ Seek a brave, judgment-free space to discuss the deeper, sometimes messy layers of the human experience.
🫂 Want to understand the everyday expectations they absorbed, and decide what to keep and what to leave behind.
🤝 Hope to find "kindred spirits" who appreciate profound, authentic conversations over small talk.
📅 Agenda / What You'll Experience
💬 Prompted Conversations
We will use virtual question cards designed to help people thoughtfully explore their experiences. Here are some sample questions:
* We make thousands of choices a day. In your own life, what does it feel like to make a truly "conscious" choice versus a choice made purely on "autopilot"?
* Without oversharing, what is an everyday expectation or borrowed belief that you built parts of your life around before you thought to question it?
* Making a conscious choice sometimes means stepping out of familiar patterns. How do you balance honoring your authentic self while still maintaining harmony with the people around you?
* Waking up from the autopilot can feel daunting. What is one small, practical way you can inject a moment of total awareness into your daily routine tomorrow?
From there, we’ll embark on a respectful, engaging, and meaningful conversation, celebrating the diversity of perspectives and ideas within the group.
Note: This session may involve virtual question cards accessed via a link or QR code. If you do not have a device (phone/tablet) to access these, please ask a facilitator for assistance; we have spare units available. The exact format of the event may change depending on turnout according to [https://curioussouls.cafe/#how-to](https://curioussouls.cafe/#how-to) and other factors.
💬 Final Thoughts and Feedback
Where time allows, in the final 10 minutes of the event, we’ll take a moment to reflect on the key insights, memorable moments, and takeaways from our discussions. This is a chance to distill the shared wisdom and leave with a deeper understanding of the topics we’ve explored together.
After the event officially concludes, the group may choose to extend the session, depending on the group’s interest. Of course, you’re welcome to leave at any time that feels right for you.
An anonymized summary will be shared for sessions where key insights are identified. After the meeting, our facilitators and participants may reflect on the discussion and contribute to a summary or collaborative workbook based on their notes and observations. Additionally, questions may be revisited in future sessions in an anonymized manner.

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.
