How honest are we really — with others and with ourselves? Is there something as too much honesty? What are the pros and cons of being honest? How honest do you think you are? After some reflection and exploring key concepts about mindfulness and respectful communication we'll practice honesty through different exercises together. Expect a safe and welcoming atmosphere, light humor, practical communication tools, and space for both speaking and silent reflection.

In this talk, Tobias will present the key findings of the PwC x PMI Study 2025, which examines the state of agility in Austrian companies. We will look at how organizations understand agility today, the main barriers to scaling it, the rise of hybrid models, and the (still limited) role of AI in agile work. Attendees will leave with a clear picture of where Austrian companies stand — and what separates those who use Agile methods from those who truly live Agility!

**🌬️ Breathwork – Geführte meditative Reise** **Adresse:** Bella Volen Galerie, Landesgerichtsstraße 6, Wien 1010 **Start um 19 Uhr** **Ankommen zwischen** 18:40 und 18:55 Breathwork ist eine Reise nach innen – eine Begegnung mit dem Unbewussten, getragen und geführt durch den Atem. In unserem oft hektischen Alltag fällt es uns nicht immer leicht, Abstand zu gewinnen und das größere Bild zu erkennen. Umso erstaunlicher ist es, wie schnell sich unsere innere Wahrnehmung verändern kann, wenn wir uns bewusst mit unserem Atem verbinden. Die Einladung an Sie besteht darin, sich vertrauensvoll dem Atem hinzugeben und sich für neue Erfahrungen, Erkenntnisse und innere Räume zu öffnen. Es ist Ihre ganz persönliche Reise. Begleitet von Musik und der ruhigen Stimme von Christian findet die Session in einem geschützten, abgedunkelten Raum statt. Die Fenster sind mit Vorhängen bedeckt, sodass Sie ungestört loslassen und ganz bei sich ankommen können. Wissenschaftliche Studien zeigen, dass bewusste Atemtechniken den Vagusnerv aktivieren, Stresshormone reduzieren sowie Herzfrequenz und Blutdruck positiv beeinflussen können. Breathwork kann dabei helfen, emotionale Spannungen zu lösen, das Nervensystem zu beruhigen und einen Zustand tiefer Entspannung, Klarheit und innerer Präsenz zu fördern. Viele Menschen erleben Breathwork als eine heilsame Erfahrung, bei der festgefahrene Emotionen in Bewegung kommen, neue Einsichten entstehen und eine tiefere Verbindung zu sich selbst spürbar wird. Es kann ein Raum entstehen für innere Ruhe, Selbstvertrauen, Verbundenheit und die eigene innere Weisheit. ✨ Loslassen 💙 Nervensystem beruhigen ✨ Innere Klarheit 🌱 Erdung 🌬️ Bewusstes Atmen 🤍 Verbundenheit **Für die Session ist bereits alles vorbereitet:** Für die Session ist bereits alles vorbereitet: Matten, Decken, Kissen und Getränke stehen zur Verfügung. **Bringen Sie lediglich bequeme Kleidung mit.** Wenn Sie möchten, können Sie zusätzlich **eine Augenmaske** oder **ein Tuch zum Abdecken der Augen** mitbringen. Wir freuen uns darauf, Sie auf dieser besonderen Reise zu begleiten. **Christian & Bella Volen Galerie**

Come and join us as we welcome a team from UK and enjoy Malawian food cooked by natives. We are a great International community and would love to welcome you!

# Die Seele will gehört werden Die Meditation auf Licht und Klang im Inneren ist die älteste und direkteste Form der Meditation, die allen organisierten Religionen vorausging. Sie umfasst keinerlei körperliche Übung, keine Atemtechnik und keine mentale Visualisierung. Es ist eine rein spirituelle Praxis — ein stilles Lauschen nach innen, dorthin, wo die Seele seit jeher spricht. Wer sich diesem inneren Licht und Klang öffnet, beginnt, die feinen Ebenen des eigenen Wesens wahrzunehmen - denn die Seele will gehört werden. Diese Veranstaltung ist kostenlos.

Hello there! We'd like to welcome you to our FREE Sahaja Yoga meditation meetings hosted by Wolfgang, Hamid, Anil, Shantanu & friends which take place in Vienna – 7pm Thursdays. With Sahaja Yoga Meditation we normally sit on chairs to achieve yoga, effortlessly & spontaneously. So there is no need for mats and no special clothing required. We are all volunteers of a Charity association and have many years of experience in offering free Sahaja Yoga Meditation classes. All across the globe, many are seeking new sources of energy. Meanwhile, the most transformative energy of all is hiding in plain sight, within us. It's natural, sustainable, and infinitely renewable. It's called inner kundalini energy. And everyone already has it — everyone!. It is often likened to an inner feminine or motherly energy which automatically knows about us and what is needed to help us restore balance and harmony within our subtle being. It works spontaneously, effortlessly, organically and cannot be paid for. The classes are designed to help those attending get into a genuine meditative state, which can be felt tangibly. It is quite effortless and spontaneous. The free classes feature introductory talks, video's, practical workshops and general question and answer opportunities, making them perfect for seekers trying to establish a state of yoga, and they are available across Vienna most evenings and throughout Austria. The idea is that you don't do yoga - you Achieve Yoga! Sahaja Yoga Meditation is a simple, time-honored technique. It helps those who enjoy it, reduce stress and increase wellness and health holistically. It brings better focus and helps people become more centered and better balanced. Anyone can do it. Founded by Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, Sahaja Yoga Meditation is a world wide movement for peace and self awakening. All the meetings and classes are free of any charge. Each week we go through simple meditation techniques, often with guided meditations to help reduce stress and achieve the peace of true meditation. We share tips on how to help stay in balance during the day and how to meditate at home. The meditation is based on connecting with the inner chakras (energy centres) and balancing the subtle body. The tradition and aims of meditation are explained which in essence is to be in the present with no mental activity or thoughts about the past or the future. Occasionally there are 1 day retreats to help those interested, deepen their individual experience and hear advice and tips from those who have been practicing for some time. It’s ultimately all about getting into ‘thoughtless awareness’, a natural state of being. 10 Reasons to try-out Sahaja Yoga Meditation in Vienna in 2015 It’s easy. You don’t have to spend years living in the mountains to achieve enlightenment. You don’t have to give up anything or spend weeks in silence. You don’t have to learn mantras or wear special clothes or even try to clear my mind. The meditation simply happens spontaneously. The classes are easy and fun, and as long as you keep up your daily ten minutes of meditation you find you are able to achieve a deep and peaceful meditation on a regular basis. It’s free. You don’t pay for your meditation. There are no catches, and there are no hidden expenses. If you missed attending classes one week, it doesn’t matter. You just picked up the classes again when you could manage it. It is simply the generosity of spirit of other Sahaja Yoga meditation practitioners that allows Sahaja Yoga to be taught to whomever desires it, at no cost. You can see results. You feel relaxed and you feel a deep sense of calm. Now you can also feel your chakras (energy centres) and through the meditation techniques learnt along the way you can understand the vibrations of your own energy centres. If you feel unwell you meditate and use the techniques you’ve learnt to heal your chakras, and you can then feel the centres clearing, and as a consequence your health improves. It’s all-inclusive. All the major religions and their core teachings are acknowledged and respected in Sahaja Yoga. No one’s spiritual journey is right or wrong. And through meditation the wisdom of all the great gurus and saints is easily revealed and understood. In fact, you’ll find that since you’ve been meditating you’ll come to understand and appreciate the teachings of great teachers such as Lao Tse, Buddha and Mohammed. You’re your own boss. You meditate and introspect at your own pace. You don’t have to keep up with others, or feel pressured into doing things you’re not comfortable with. You are your own teacher, your own guru, your own master. This technique of meditation empowers you and enables you to help yourself. You don’t have to rely on anybody else. Of course, there are many people who practice Sahaja Yoga Meditation who can teach you a great deal about the yoga & meditation and its various techniques. However, all that you need is ultimately within you. It’s everywhere. Sahaja Yoga is practiced in almost every country in the world. So, no matter where you travel you can always locate a local Sahaja Yoga Meditation programme that you can attend. Whenever you get the chance, and no matter where you are, You try to link up with other Sahaja Yoga practitioners and enjoy a collective meditation. (Meditating with others is a much deeper and more powerful experience than meditating alone.) It’s portable. You don’t need to take anything with you to meditate: no mats, no potions, no special clothing or books. You can meditate anywhere – in a quiet room or on a noisy bus; at the beach or watching a movie. Thoughtless awareness (the state of meditation) is easy to achieve if you keep meditating daily, and it can be achieved in almost any situation. It makes sense. Everything you’ll learn will make sense. There is a lot of common sense in Sahaja Yogameditation, and even though not everything was known to you (for example, the chakras and their respective qualities), once you have a chance to learn more about the meditation, it feels very natural and comfortable. Everybody does it. When you begin a hobby or join a new group, you often find that there are particular types of people who are in the group with you. For example, some groups attract younger people, others older folk; some groups have a lot of people who are wealthy, or people who live in a certain part of town. In Sahaja Yoga you will find people from every walk of life, from every demographic – male and female, young and old, rich and poor, every shape, size and colour, with varying interests, languages and beliefs. You don’t have to be a certain type of person to do Sahaja Yoga meditation. It is one of those rarities: something for everybody. You feel good. Without fail, every time you sit down to meditate you feel better. Whether you manage to have a deep meditation or not makes no difference, and as a consequence your family and friends are reaping the benefits. So there you have it......ten reasons...... Pop along to a Free Sahaja Yoga Meditation weekly Meeting

From the moment sin entered the world, death began. Adam and Eve were not stricken dead immediately, but the process by which none of us lives forever in health and wholeness in these earthly bodies started its inexorable march to the inevitable end—death. The Bible makes it clear that by one man’s sin, death came to all mankind, but that by the obedience of One Perfect Man, Jesus, many are made righteous (Romans 5:19). F.F. Bosworth recognized this truth; he also would have people consider that the God Who provided for our greatest need—salvation from eternal death—would also provide healing for the lesser, but still great needs, of health and healing from sickness, disease, and the consequences of sin that we encounter before we die. Join us as we examine the case for biblical healing in the book first published in 1924, ***Christ The Healer*. We meet at True Food Kitchen, Easton Town Center on Tuesday, July 7, 2026 at 6:30 pm.** Get your tickets on [EventBrite](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/christ-the-healer-columbus-ohio-tickets-1989133215995)!

"Do as I say, not as I do." Children tend to have a built-in ability to recognize hypocrisy quicker than many adults, and there are few children who will respect an adult whose actions do not match his or her words. John the Baptizer wanted to make it clear that God himself is in NO way pleased by people who claim to follow Him and whose lives in NO way reflect His character. In fact, the Greek word for "actor" that people used in the first century is *"hypokrites"*. John called out the truth to any and all who would listen--from peasants to the king, even at peril of his own life and freedom--and insisted God does not judge by words alone, but by actions and in truth. Luke Chapter 3 concludes with making it clear to the Jewish and Greek readers of the day that Jesus was not only the rightful King of Israel, but also the true Son of Man--the Son of Adam, Who came to provide a way for those who had followed Adam into sin to return to fellowship with God. Take a look at Luke Chapter 3 and join us at **10 am,** **Sunday, June 28,** at **True Food Kitchen at Easton Town Center.** We'd love to see you there!
