We organise a watercolour workshop for beginners; The teacher is an advanced graphic designer and painter Tiana Diakova, whose works you can check on Instagram: @diakova_art. The maximum amount of people is 10 so the teacher will be able to guide every person. The workshop is adapted to a beginner's level (every time people who never painted before are surprised with the result they achieve!) But also the process will be interesting for those who draw or paint already. For architects, designers and illustrators it's a good way to discover a new technique and make new contacts) All materials are included so there is no need to bring anything. The process will take 2-2,5 hours. Important: Your subscription is confirmed after you make a payment following this link: https://mauicowork.com/watercolour-painting-with-tatiana/ Welcome to our evening of creativity in the atmospheric studio with beach vibes:)

## 🐦 Birdsong Mindfulness Walks 🌿 *Slow, nature-based mindfulness in Barcelona* ### 🌿 TLDR — Please read before joining * Slow, mindful meditation walk (not fitness or hiking). * Birdsong as a mindfulness anchor (not birdwatching). * No individual Reiki during the walk for larger groups *(5-min Reiki available before/after if requested).* *** ## **🌅 Dawn Chorus Edition** 🌅 **Dawn Chorus Edition – February 8** This walk will be a **Dawn Chorus** edition, meeting at **8:00 AM**. The *dawn chorus* is the natural phenomenon where birds sing most actively in the early morning, just before and after sunrise. At this time of day, the world is quieter, the air is cooler, and birdsong is often richer, clearer, and more layered. Walking during the dawn chorus offers a rare opportunity to listen deeply, move slowly, and begin the day grounded in presence and sound. Everything else about the walk remains the same — slow pace, gentle guidance, moments of stillness, and an optional short Reiki session at the end. *** ### ✨ What we’ll do * Begin with a short, gentle grounding practice * Walk at a **slow, mindful pace** (intentionally slower than a usual walk) * Use **birdsong and natural sounds** as anchors for awareness * Pause at times to listen, sense, or simply be still * Close with a few moments of shared stillness For larger groups, **individual Reiki is not offered during the walk**. If you’d like a **short 5-minute Reiki session**, feel free to let me know in advance or come speak with me **before or after** the walk (always by consent). *** ### 🐦 A note on birds This is **not a birdwatching walk**, though we use birdsong as a meditation anchor. If you’re curious, I’m always happy to chat **after the walk** about birds we noticed by sight or sound. I’m also planning to open a **monthly gathering for amateur birdwatching** soon. *** ### 🗣 Language Guided talks and meditations are currently offered in **English**. I’m learning **Spanish and Catalan**, and I hope to offer guided practices in those languages in the future. *** ### 👥 Group size We began with very small, intimate groups due to individual Reiki sessions. As interest has grown, I’m opening up **more spots** and keeping the structure simple so we can walk together more spaciously. Returning walkers may occasionally join beyond the usual number, as they’re already familiar with the pace and nature of the practice. 💛 If you’ve joined before and would like to come again, please join the waitlist or feel free to message me directly — I’ll happily mark you as going. *** ### 💛 About the practice I’m a **mindfulness teacher in training**, and part of this journey includes learning through practice. You may be gently invited to share feedback to help me grow as a facilitator. If there are any **mindfulness teacher trainees** who’d like to co-lead or guide a future walk, feel free to reach out — I’d love to share the space. *** ### 🌿 Cost These walks are currently offered **for free** as my way of giving back. ***Donations are welcome*** to help cover Meetup costs and keep the walks accessible: [https://www.hereaware.com/donate](https://www.hereaware.com/donate) *** ### 🌧 Weather Light rain can be part of the experience — we’ll choose routes with mostly concrete paths (often around Jardins de Mossèn Cinto Verdaguer). **In case of heavy rain, strong wind, or storm alerts**, the walk will be **cancelled** for safety reasons. *** ### 📍 Location & confirmation The walk takes place in the **Montjuïc area**. The exact meeting point pin will be shared via the private comments once you've RSVP'd a couple of days before the walk. Please confirm your attendance by sending a WhatsApp message to: 📲 **+34 722 692 960** 👉 Full experience details & background: * [https://www.hereaware.com/experiences](https://www.hereaware.com/experiences) * [https://linktr.ee/here.aware](https://linktr.ee/here.aware) *** ### 🎶 Please read * We’ll begin the grounding at **the start time**, with a 5-minute grace period * Please arrive a little early to settle in comfortably * If you’ll be late, text me **at least 15 minutes in advance**, and I’ll share a live location pin * If you arrive during the grounding or while we’re walking, you’re welcome to **join quietly** * Phones will be invited onto **silent mode** during the walk *** #### 🎧 Consent & phones The only consent I’ll ask for is for **audio recording** (for my mindfulness teacher training). I won’t take photos during the walk. You’re welcome to take photos after, and I gently invite minimal phone use during the experience. Thank you for helping keep the space calm, respectful, and spacious for everyone 🌿

**Our February novel is: Julia by Sandra Newman** **This month is a classic, dystopian, fiction, literary fiction, women’s fiction, and science fiction novel. The book is 394 pages in print and 14 hours and 20 minutes on audiobook.** **An imaginative, feminist, and brilliantly relevant-to-today retelling of Orwell’s 1984, from the point of view of Winston Smith’s lover, Julia, by critically acclaimed novelist Sandra Newman.** Julia Worthing is a mechanic, working in the Fiction Department at the Ministry of Truth. It’s 1984, and Britain (now called Airstrip One) has long been absorbed into the larger trans-Atlantic nation of Oceania. Oceania has been at war for as long as anyone can remember, and is ruled by an ultra-totalitarian Party, whose leader is a quasi-mythical figure called Big Brother. In short, everything about this world is as it is in Orwell’s 1984. All her life, Julia has known only Oceania, and, until she meets Winston Smith, she has never imagined anything else. She is an ideal citizen: cheerfully cynical, always ready with a bribe, piously repeating every political slogan while believing in nothing. She routinely breaks the rules, but also collaborates with the regime when necessary. Everyone likes Julia. Then one day she finds herself walking toward Winston Smith in a corridor and impulsively slips him a note, setting in motion the devastating, unforgettable events of the classic story. Julia takes us on a surprising journey through Orwell’s now-iconic dystopia, with twists that reveal unexpected sides not only to Julia, but to other familiar figures in the 1984 universe. This unique perspective lays bare our own world in haunting and provocative ways, just as the original did almost seventy-five years ago.

We’re still working to get more people into these Meetups, but our goal is to give PlayYourCourt members a few social tennis outings each week in addition to your practice sessions and Challenge League matches. These Meetups are co-ed, super laid back, and all skill levels are welcome. Post your skill level and a suggested court in the comments section so we can round up as many players as we can for some tennis fun! Also, if you’re looking to meet new practice partners or play some matches and you aren’t already in the PlayYourCourt Community, you can go here to see what we’re all about and sign up: https://www.playyourcourt.com/tennis-community/columbus-oh/meetup/ If you love tennis, we’d love to have you! Be sure and watch the quick video that explains how everything works. Happy hitting! - Scott
