This class is a guided life force energy transmission designed to help you deepen awareness, regulate the nervous system, release stored emotions, and connect more deeply with themselves. The practice combines life force activation, light language, somatic release, music therapy, and meditation in a safe, supportive environment. Blue Lotus Tea Blue Lotus tea will be served as an optional ritual element. It is non-psychedelic and only mildly psychoactive, helping participants relax the body, quiet the mind, and become more receptive to the experience. It supports the practice but does not create the activation itself. During the Session Participants lie down while receiving a guided energy transmission. Experiences vary and may include: * Gentle spontaneous body movement * Emotional release (laughing, crying, etc.) * Feelings of warmth, tingling, or energy movement * Deep relaxation or bliss * Visual imagery or meditative experiences * Vocal expression such as humming, singing, or spontaneous sounds (often described as light language) Intended Benefits Many participants report: * Greater emotional release and nervous system regulation * Increased self-awareness and clarity * Enhanced intuition and confidence * Breaking old patterns and limiting beliefs * Improved relationships and life direction * Greater creativity, resilience, and sense of purpose The emphasis is on personal growth, conscious awareness, and integration, rather than seeking dramatic experiences during the session itself. What is Light Language? Light language refers to spontaneous vocal, tonal, or gestural expression that some people experience during deep meditative or energetic states. It is viewed within this practice as an intuitive form of self-expression that may support healing, communication, and creativity. Preparation * Avoid alcohol or recreational drugs on the day of the class. * Eat lightly (fruit or juice) 1–2 hours beforehand. * Stay hydrated. * Meditation or gentle breathwork beforehand is encouraged. * Integration guidance will be provided after the session. Who Should Attend The class is open to adults seeking personal growth and self-exploration. It is not suitable for individuals experiencing psychosis or mania, those under 18, or people in the third trimester of pregnancy.

As you lie comfortably on your mat, you will receive a transmission of energy that supports the awakening of your own inner life force and the expansion of your energetic body.

These frequencies communicate directly with your consciousness, activating the body’s innate intelligence and natural healing capacity.

Most people use LLMs by feel: ask a question, read the answer, decide whether it “seems good,” and move on. That works for casual use. It does not work when you are building software, automating workflows, writing important documents, or relying on AI for anything that needs to be repeatable. In this talk, we’ll look at how to improve and evaluate the inputs and outputs of LLMs using practical measurement techniques. We’ll cover how prompt changes affect results, how to compare outputs, how to build simple evaluation sets, and how math-based methods like similarity scoring can help you move beyond guesswork. This will be beginner-friendly, so even if you don't know anything about AI, you should get something out of it. However, this will be a little more technical than our intro talks. You do not need to be an AI researcher, but programmers and technically curious attendees will get a lot out of it. We’ll cover: * Why “it looks good” is not enough * How to improve prompts by changing the input, context, and constraints * How to compare LLM outputs more systematically * Basic evaluation techniques for accuracy, consistency, and usefulness * How embeddings, cosine similarity, and scoring can help evaluate results * Where automated evaluation works — and where humans still need to stay in the loop By the end, you’ll have a practical mental model for treating LLMs less like magic and more like systems you can test, measure, and improve. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
