Augmented Reality

🔮 **Join us as we explore Barbican’s new immersive exhibition, a major work by Liam Young, blending film, sound, design and storytelling.** Please book your ticket on the link below for the 23rd May at 2.45pm (we will meet at 2.30 and will wait 15mins for everyone to arrive) 🎫 ** [Book your ticket here.](https://tickets.barbican.org.uk/choose-seats/3431214)** About: The show presents immersive, imagined futures shaped by real-world technology and climate challenges. Rather than dystopia, it invites us to explore the possibilities ahead, offering a thought-provoking glimpse into how today’s choices might shape tomorrow’s world. **We will meet by the information desk, near the entrance and will wait 10-15mins for everyone to arrive.** ☕️ We will take about 1 hour to go through the exhibit then we will go for coffee somewhere inside the Barbican.

Everyone welcome 😊

Important to note:

1. We typically socialise at cafés after the exhibit, nice, independent ones, not chains and not at pubs. If the event is late on a Saturday we go to a nice bar/pub for drinks after. This meetup is inclusive and everyone is welcome to join.
2. If you get there before everyone and you're not sure what to do or where we are, post a comment on here and I will let you know our whereabouts.
3. Once we go in we may separate, feel free to explore the exhibit by yourself, we don't have to be together. Some people like chatting to others while exploring and other people prefer to be with their own thoughts. You are welcome to express yourself and do whatever helps you feel free.

4. If you are late or if you’ve booked for an earlier or later time don’t worry just go in and you’ll find us inside. Keep an eye on the comments as I’ll be posting updates.

**EVENT OVERVIEW** Join us for an intimate Kundalini Activation session designed to awaken your life-force energy and reconnect you with your authentic self. Limited to just 6 participants, this 2-hour experience offers profound emotional release and spiritual transformation through gentle surrender - no yoga poses or breath-work required. **WHAT TO EXPECT - SESSION AGENDA** **12:00-12:15pm - Welcome & Introduction** * Meet fellow participants in our intimate group setting * Brief overview of the Kundalini Activation process **12:15-12:30pm - Body Scan Meditation** * Guided meditation to help you reconnect with your body * Entering a surrendered, receptive state **12:30-1:30pm - The Energy Activation Process** * Carefully curated music journey * Energy Transmissions and individual attention * Safe space for whatever wants to emerge naturally **1:30-2:00pm - Integration & Sharing Circle** * Tea and chocolate provided * Optional sharing of experiences * Connect with your new spiritual community **WHAT IS KUNDALINI ACTIVATION?** Unlike Kundalini Yoga that relies on physical postures and breath-work, this journey is one of complete surrender. The intelligent life-force energy naturally rises within you, awakening dormant parts of your being and fostering growth on emotional, mental and spiritual levels. This intuitively guided process works in harmony with your unique needs, gently releasing stored emotions and helping you rediscover your authentic self. **THIS IS PERFECT FOR YOU, IF YOU:** ★Want to find your authentic self through awakening your Kundalini ★Have tried therapy or other modalities but feel they haven't touched the deepest parts of what you need to release ★Are seeking the truth within - who you are at the level of identity OR beyond the identity ★Value intimate, personal, exclusive spaces (max 6 people) over large groups ★Are ready for deep transformation, not just relaxation ★Want tough motherly love from Kali energy that will destroy everything that isn't true for you **WHY SMALL GROUPS MATTER** This journey touches the deepest parts of who you are. In our intimate 6-person setting, you can surrender fully to whatever wants to emerge - whether it's tears you've held back for years, anger you've suppressed, or joy you've forgotten how to feel. The smaller group creates a safer space for emotional vulnerability and deeper connections that larger groups simply can't offer. **LOCATION & PRACTICAL DETAILS** **📍 Romford, East London - Address received in email after ticket paid** 🚇 **Elizabeth Line (5 mins from Romford Station)** **⏰ Saturdays 12-2 PM** **🚗 Free on-site parking (all info in email after booking)** **INVESTMENT:** £55 per person **WHAT'S PROVIDED:** Yoga mats, blankets, and all equipment **WHAT TO BRING:** Just yourself and an open heart **SESSION TIMES:** Every Saturday 12-2pm and some Friday evenings 8-10pm **WEBSITE:** https://www.kundaliniuntamed.com/romford-sessions **HOW TO SECURE YOUR SPOT** **Do I need to purchase a ticket?** Yes!

A Rabble session is 1 hour of fun and social team games. Each game disguises high-intensity intervals within the rules, giving you an effective, all-body workout without even realising it. We play a bunch of different games at each session (like British Bulldog, Capture the Flag, Dodgeball, Frisbee and many more), and every class is different. Sessions are open to all, no matter your sporting ability. Each game is explained before we start, so there's no need to have played any of the games before. Come solo or bring friends! And stay at the end for the social part! Who knew getting fit could be this fun? **TO BOOK**: It's essential that you book onto sessions via our website, using the link below; due to restrictions on games and preparation times we cannot accept walk-ins, or late arrivals.

I'm planning to book my tickets for 12.30. There are plenty of eateries to choose from for lunch. After lunch we can walk along the river and enter Battersea Park with its wooded walks, ponds and fountains as well as a bandstand and the iconic London Peace Pagoda. Once again there will be lots of things to photograph. After this, depending on how we feel we could either take the tube back from Battersea Power Station, or if anyone has the energy you could walk on towards Vauxhall, past the newly built up Nine Elms, the USA Embassy and Swimming Pool in the Sky. Don't miss what should be a great day out. Cost of Meetup: £5 cash on day please for each member and each guest. Please book your chimney tickets in advance. We'll agree a time after lunch to all meet up and walk together on to Battersea Park.

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.

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** Like it or not, AI agents are now capable of turning a quickly written paragraph of requirements into a pull request that is ready to be integrated into real-world production applications and it's now our responsibility to make sure AI doesn't go rogue and take down prod - or corrupt our data by misunderstanding the requirements or our existing schemas. In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** TBD

Sometimes it’s a massive advantage… and sometimes it can complicate your business if you don’t know what you’re walking into. In this training, we’ll cut through the “agents vs investors” drama and focus on one thing: **what makes you more money and gives you more leverage**. You’ll learn: * **When being licensed helps investors win** (better access, better data, better terms, better deal flow) * How investors use a license to **create extra profit centers** (commissions, referrals, listings, buyer rep, property management pathways) * The truth about **MLS access, pocket listings, and being first to the good deals** * How licensing impacts **wholesaling, double-closing, assignments, and disclosures** * What brokerages don’t tell you: **fees, splits, compliance, and time requirements** * When it’s smarter to **partner with an agent** instead of becoming one * A simple decision framework: **licensed vs partnered vs hybrid model** You’ll walk out knowing whether licensing fits your goals—and if it does, the cleanest path to do it without slowing down your investing.
