Sublimez vos blessures avec l’art du Kintsugi !
Sublimez vos blessures avec l’art du Kintsugi !
Une belle parenthèse pour honorer ses fêlures, renouer avec sa résilience, et révéler ce qu’elles ont aussi rendu possible. 🌟 L’ATELIER 🌟 La Wise Community est heureuse de vous convier à un atelier autour du Kintsugi, cet art japonais qui consiste à réparer les objets brisés en sublimant leurs fissures. Et si nos fêlures n’étaient pas seulement des cassures, mais aussi des passages vers plus de conscience, de force et de beauté ? À travers un temps de réflexion guidée, de partage et de création, vous serez invité·e à vivre une expérience à la fois artistique et introspective. En cassant puis en réparant symboliquement une céramique, vous explorerez ce qui, en vous, a été traversé, transformé, réparé et peut aujourd’hui être regardé autrement. Vous avez aussi la possibilité de venir avec votre propre objet (en céramique) cassé pour le sublimer pendant l’atelier. Cet atelier mêle pratique artistique, coaching et développement personnel, dans une approche douce et accessible. Vous repartirez avec une création unique, porteuse de sens et de votre propre histoire. Une belle manière de renouer avec soi, d’embrasser l’imperfection, et de faire de ses épreuves une œuvre unique. 🎯POUR QUI ? : Pour toute personne bienveillante portant de l'intérêt à la connaissance de soi, au développement personnel, à la volonté de retrouver du sens, du lien et du partage. 🌐LIEU : Le kawaa du Lucernaire ( 53 Rue Notre Dame des Champs, Paris 6) 🗓️ DATE :20/06/2026 (14h30 - 17h30) 💰TARIF : 15 euros (Note importante : Cet atelier étant organisé dans un cadre associatif avec des places limitées, les inscriptions sont ni remboursables ni échangeables !) * Consommation obligatoire DROIT A L’IMAGE : En participant à cet évènement, vous acceptez d'être filmé(e) uniquement dans le cadre des enregistrements de groupe réalisés par la Wise (aucun enregistrement individuel ne sera effectué). 🌟 QUI SOMMES NOUS ? 🌟 « Et si, au lieu d’écouter toutes ces personnes qui nous expliquent combien tout va mal, nous nous rassemblions pour ériger un monde meilleur ? » Dans une société parfois divisée et fragilisée, il devient essentiel de remettre l’humain au centre : apprendre à mieux se connaître, redonner du sens à son cheminement, avancer en respectant ses valeurs, ses aspirations et son histoire. La Wise Community est une communauté solidaire, multigénérationnelle, qui rassemble les personnes de bien en quête de sens et de lien social. Notre vocation : agir ensemble, avec le cœur, pour un monde meilleur. Grâce à notre écosystème de partenaires intervenant auprès de différents publics, nous offrons l’opportunité, de : * Se réaliser grâce à nos ateliers de développement personnel et professionnel. * Agir au quotidien en participant aux actions de terrain proposées par nos associations partenaires. * Progresser collectivement en partageant ses compétences, connaissances, expériences et idées.

Nuit de l’Astronomie à l’Institut d’Astrophysique de Paris 🌌
Nuit de l’Astronomie à l’Institut d’Astrophysique de Paris 🌌
Chér.e.s Group Elements, (Oui, comme dans un groupe mathématique 🧮🙂) Retrouvons-nous pour la 6e Nuit de l’Astronomie à l’Institut d’Astrophysique de Paris ! Cette année, l'événement est **consacré aux galaxies**, à l'occasion du **centenaire de la découverte d'Edwin Hubble** montrant que la nébuleuse d'Andromède était en réalité une galaxie semblable à la nôtre. Cette découverte a profondément transformé notre vision de l'Univers et ouvert un siècle d'exploration cosmique. Au fil de la soirée, des chercheuses et chercheurs présenteront l'état actuel de nos connaissances sur les galaxies : de la Voie Lactée et du Groupe Local jusqu'aux premières galaxies apparues quelques centaines de millions d'années après le Big Bang. Les conférences aborderont également les grands instruments qui permettent aujourd'hui d'explorer ces questions, tels que le télescope spatial James Webb (JWST), la mission Euclid ou le futur Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). 🔭Au-delà des conférences, la Nuit de l'Astronomie est aussi l'occasion de rencontrer des scientifiques, de découvrir des expositions et posters de recherche, d'échanger avec de jeunes chercheuses et chercheurs, **et même d'explorer des simulations d'environnements de trous noirs en réalité virtuelle** **(inscription obligatoire à l'accueil en arrivant pour celle-ci)** 🌠 **Le programme est libre** : chacun·e peut assister aux conférences qui l'intéressent, prendre le temps de discuter avec les scientifiques présents ou simplement profiter de l'ambiance de cette grande soirée consacrée à l'exploration de l'Univers. 📜 **Programme complet et informations :** [https://www.iap.fr/actualites/laune/2026/NuitAstro/nuit-astro-fr.html](https://www.iap.fr/actualites/laune/2026/NuitAstro/nuit-astro-fr.html) **Résumés des conférences :** [https://www.iap.fr/actualites/laune/2026/NuitAstro/resumes2026.html](https://www.iap.fr/actualites/laune/2026/NuitAstro/resumes2026.html) Lien de diffusion : [https://www.youtube.com/live/tsxjSH6y4Dw?si=CGU9s7KPXinD3a2i](https://www.youtube.com/live/tsxjSH6y4Dw?si=CGU9s7KPXinD3a2i) Pour celles et ceux qui le souhaitent, nous pourrons échanger entre les conférences ou prolonger la discussion autour d'un verre ou d'un repas sur place. ☕🌌 À très bientot ! 🌌 **P.

Deep Talk / In English
Deep Talk / In English
🍩🍰 Let's have a weekly deep talk in an intimate Parisian café, share a drink and have a good time with like-minded, lovely and chill people. 🥂☕ We're here to sip life in a childish, simple and non-serious way. 🙃 When was the last time you had a meaningful conversation? Or deepened your relationship with someone in your life? It's not easy to have a deep conversation. While small talk, which is typically casual and light-hearted, can help break the ice, it may not necessarily help you form a deep, emotional connection with someone. Whether it's with your friends, family, colleagues or romantic partners, having meaningful conversations is important for creating strong bonds. "Meaningful conversations help us understand ourselves and those around us better. They involve sharing important aspects of ourselves and actively listening, validating and connecting with others." We believe that a happy and healthy life is built on beautiful relationships and that loneliness kills us. That's it. It's not the number of friends that counts, it's the quality of the relationship. ✅ This group is adressed to : ● People who want to build deep, genuine and caring relationships in a small group that looks the same, where they feel comfortable and emotionally safe to talk emotionally and get intimate about anything in their lives. ● Simple, loving, kind, hyper/sensitive and lovely people who spend a lot of time in their bubble thinking about the meaning of life, passionate about personal development, philosophy, meaningful conversations, debates .... ⛔ Please don't subscribe if : ● You don't see yourself in the group's aims and beliefs. ● You're travelling for a short period of time and don't live or intend to live in Paris. ● You are not sure if you will be able to come, please update your status to allow others on the waiting list to join. An absence without notice will result in an irrevocable ban. Progress : ● ❗ For reservations, I'll send you a private Meetup message at least 5 hours before the meeting to confirm your reservation. If I don't receive a reply 2 hours before the meeting, I will send you a second message to let you know that you will be replaced by someone on the waitlist. ● 💚 We keep the session small, cosy and relaxed in a quiet place, prioritising regularity to encourage intimacy, connection, listening and speaking. (\~ 5/6 people) ● 🔖 On arrival, if you feel comfortable, you will be suggested to choose and associate several drawn Feelings and Needs cards to express how you really feel at the moment, to talk about ourselves and communicate effectively. ● 📝 The best way to make progress is to make the conversation easy and natural, with everyone making an effort to suggest and write down what you want to talk about. You can write down your favourite topics/questions before the meeting. The meeting is participative and invite everyone if you feel comfortable being a leader and a power of suggestion. Anyway, to keep the meeting running smoothly, I'll animate the meeting to make sure the conversation doesn't get wild or boring and I wouldn't hesitate to reframe people. In case of lack of inspiration we have a lot of deep conversation question card game which can help to find interesting questions. ● 🍕 (Not compulsory) After the meeting we can finish in a nearby restaurant for those who wish to relax or continue our conversation. Advice for a good moment : ● Leave your ego and mask at home, we are not here to impress anyone but to be ourselves with our strength, weakness, pride and shame. Come with an open/deep/emotional/complex thought and vulnerability. ● Ask open-ended questions and invite the other person to describe what a situation was like for them or how they felt. ● Don't hesitate to be vulnerable and share information about yourself if needed. Consider sharing personal information first to gain the other person's trust. ● Adopt an attitude of curiosity and genuine interest in what the other person is saying. Be thoughtful and try to put yourself in the other person's shoes so that you can see things from their perspective. Be truthful, caring and honest. ● Listen actively and ask follow-up questions. ● Be empathetic and offer emotional validation so that they feel seen and heard. It is forbidden to judge, but try to understand. ● ⏱ Be aware of your speaking time for Equally Speak. ● 🤫 Be aware never to provoke political or religious ideologies, but to accept differences of belief. Advice on non-violent communication can be given in the meeting to learn not to unintentionally hurt anyone when requested or needed. ● 🚨 Remember to maintain a safe, and benevolent environment. People who are considered to be disruptive, problematic or simply not in tune with the energy of the group will not be allowed to return. Finally, we're hug-friendly !!! 🤗

Drunken Philosophy: Where Is Everybody? The Fermi Paradox and the Great Filter
Drunken Philosophy: Where Is Everybody? The Fermi Paradox and the Great Filter
Welcome to Drunken Philosophy, a casual, curious, social discussion club. Come grab a drink and a seat at The Oracle. **Optional topic for this meetup: Where is everybody?** In 1950 the physicist Enrico Fermi was talking about aliens over lunch and asked a question that still has not gone away: if the universe is so vast and so old, and even a fraction of those billions of stars have planets, where is everyone? By the numbers the galaxy should be crowded with civilizations. Instead we look up and hear silence. That gap between "they should be everywhere" and "we see no one" is the Fermi Paradox. One of the most unsettling answers is the idea of a **Great Filter**: somewhere on the road from dead chemistry to a galaxy-spanning civilization, there is at least one step that is almost impossible to get past. Maybe the filter is behind us. Maybe life starting at all, or simple cells becoming complex, or intelligence ever evolving, is the freak accident, and we already cleared the hard part. Or maybe the filter is ahead of us, and advanced civilizations reliably wipe themselves out before they spread. Here is the part that messes with people. If we ever found life somewhere else, even pond scum on Mars, most people would call it the greatest discovery in history. But it might be the worst possible news. It would mean life is common, the early steps are easy, and the hard step is still in front of us. So the eerie silence overhead might actually be the best sign we could ask for. **Questions to wrestle with:** * Is it better to be alone? Would you rather we find alien life and learn we are not special, or find nothing and quietly improve our odds of surviving? * Where do you bet the filter sits, behind us or ahead of us, and why? * If it is ahead of us, what is it? Nuclear war, climate collapse, AI, something we cannot even picture yet? And can we do anything about a filter we cannot see coming? * Two principles pull opposite ways here. The principle of mediocrity (the Copernican principle, Sagan's "no privileged place in the universe") says we are ordinary, so what happened on Earth probably happened everywhere, which makes the silence scream louder. The anthropic principle says of course we find ourselves somewhere life was possible, since we could not observe anything else, so our being here may say almost nothing about how common life is. Which lens do you trust, and does the silence still demand an answer once you account for observer selection? * And if we did confirm life out there and had to accept we are not special, what would that do to belief in a higher power, and would shedding (or keeping) that belief help or hurt our odds of pulling together as one species? * Does any of this change how you live, or how humanity should be spending its time and money right now? As always the prompt is optional. Come for the conversation, stay for the drinks, and bring your own questions.
