Chér.e.s Group Elements, (Oui, comme dans un groupe mathématique 🧮🙂) Retrouvons-nous pour assister à cette conférence assez fascinante (et informative !) sur « **Sonder la nature de l'énergie noire avec le projet DESI »** par Pauline Zarouk (Laboratoire de Physique Nucléaire et de Hautes Énergies) 🌌 🌌 **Voici la description :** 🔭 DESI est un relevé spectroscopique de dernière génération dont le but est de sonder la nature de l'énergie noire, cette mystérieuse composante qui serait responsable de l'accélération de l'expansion de l'Univers observée à la fin des années 90 et dont le mécanisme demeure encore aujourd'hui l'une des plus grandes énigmes de la cosmologie moderne. 🗺️ DESI a débuté ses observations en mai 2021 et va collecter les spectres de plus de 60 millions de galaxies en 8 ans d'observations afin d'établir une cartographie 3D des grandes structures de l'Univers la plus précise. En effet, la façon dont les galaxies sont réparties dans le ciel nous renseigne sur plusieurs propriétés de l'Univers, comme la vitesse à laquelle il s'étend ou encore la vitesse à laquelle les galaxies se forment sous l'effet de la gravité. 🎙️ Au cours de cette conférence, je présenterai notre histoire cosmique basée sur des observations et sur un modèle cosmologique, puis la quête de la nature de l'énergie noire et enfin le projet DESI ainsi que ses derniers résultats. 📝 ~~Lien d'inscription~~ — **déjà complet** au moment de la publication ! Mais ne vous laissez pas décourager : **même si le lien indique que c'est complet, il est souvent encore possible de trouver une place en arrivant un peu en avance (par 19h10)** 🍀 La conférence est prévue pour commencer à 19h30.

Indeed, the way galaxies are distributed across the sky informs us about several properties of the Universe, such as the rate at which it expands and the rate at which galaxies form under the influence of Gravity. 🎙️ During this talk, I will first present our cosmic history based on observations and on a cosmological model, then the quest to understand the nature of dark energy, and finally the DESI project and its latest results. 📝 ~~Registration link~~ — **already full as of posting!** But don't let that stop you: **Even if the registration appears full when you follow the link, it’s usually still possible to get seats if you arrive early (by 7:10 pm)** 🍀 The talk is scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m. You can still check here in case spots open up: [https://www.iap.fr/science/conferences/conferences_mensuelles/](https://www.iap.fr/science/conferences/conferences_mensuelles/) [https://www.iap.fr/science/conferences/conferences_mensuelles/form_reservation_conference.php](https://www.iap.fr/science/conferences/conferences_mensuelles/form_reservation_conference.php) [https://www.iap.fr/science/conferences/conferences_mensuelles/resumes2026.html](https://www.iap.fr/science/conferences/conferences_mensuelles/resumes2026.html) ▶️ And the session will also be available **live and replay** on IAP's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@InstitutdAstrophysiquedeParis 📍 **Acces**: https://www.iap.fr/accueil/acces/acces-fr.html 🍺It usually lasts 60–90 minutes.

Explore the Ashtanga practice - build strength, flexibility, and inner focus while cultivating a deep sense of presence. YOCA, yoga for the animal cause, invites you to discover the Ashtanga practice through its first series, *Chikitsa* ✨ A dynamic practice: breath, movement, and focus. Come explore a fluid, rhythmic sequence where each posture is linked to the breath. An invitation to reconnect, build strength, and calm the mind through a structured, meditative flow 🌿 **What to expect:** ✨ Introduction to the Ashtanga Primary Series (*Chikitsa*) ✨ Breath-led transitions (*vinyasa*) ✨ Basics of Ujjayi breathing ✨ Exploration of bandhas (energy locks) and drishti (gaze) 🌿 Open to all levels, with adaptations for beginners, class taught in English ⏰ Duration: 50 min 💻Online class, from the comfort of your own home! 🧘‍♀️ A guided and progressive practice to help you understand the logic and flow of the sequence, while moving at your own pace. **A few words about your teacher** Maria started practicing Kundalini yoga in 2021 through the sadhanas at the Shunia yoga center in Barcelona. In Spring 2023 she did the 200-hour Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga Teacher Training. Meanwhile, she explored other forms of yoga and meditation. She is currently based between Paris and Berlin, doing research on urban rewilding, envisioning cities more open to animals and plants. **What is Ashtanga Yoga?** Ashtanga Yoga is a dynamic and meditative practice that links each posture through a flowing sequence. It was founded by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois (1915–2009). For 25 years, Pattabhi Jois studied under Tirumalai Krishnamacharya, who is considered the father of modern yoga. After many years of following his teachings, Pattabhi Jois established his own yoga school in 1948: the Ashtanga Yoga Research Institute in Mysore, India. From the 1960s onward, students from around the world came to discover this style of yoga and helped spread its practice globally. 💛**A free class, open to everyone** This session is offered voluntarily, with the intention of making yoga accessible to all. 🐾**Want to go further?** If you wish, you can make a donation to support the animal cause. This month, YOCA sheds light on the protection of cetaceans and the end of their exploitation. All donations will go to the One Voice association, which opposes the captivity of dolphins and orcas in marine parks. 📩Registration & info: [yoca.yoga.contact@gmail.com](https://www.eventbrite.fr/e/billets-ashtanga-yoga-1987515046005?aff=oddtdtcreator&keep_tld=true) or https://form.jotform.com/261131171452344 Take care of yourself and animals at the same time 💫

Bonjour à tous.tes ! Je m'appelle Emma, je suis l'organisatrice Practical Philosophy Paris :) Practical Philosophy est un mouvement né au Mexique et qui est présent partout dans le monde aujourd'hui. J'ai découvert Practical Philosophy au Canada et j'ai tellement aimé que j'ai décidé de l'importer à Paris (il y a aussi une branche à Lyon si vous n'êtes pas de la région). **🏛️ C’EST QUOI, LA PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY ?** Practical philosophy, c’est un rendez-vous hebdomadaire où des esprits curieux se retrouvent pour creuser un sujet, affûter leur façon de s’exprimer et tisser des liens. Pas besoin d’être un pro de la philo pour participer, tout le monde est le bienvenu ! 😎 L’idée, c’est que la philosophie, ce n’est pas juste pour les profs d’université. Chaque semaine, on choisit un thème et on en discute pour aiguiser notre esprit critique et nos talents de communicants. C'est aussi une manière d'apprendre à mieux se connaître soi-même, en affirmant et argmumentant ce qu'on pense réellement. Bref, on bosse sur trois piliers : **Pensée Critique**, **Communication** et **Communauté** 🙌. **📓 COMMENT ÇA MARCHE ?** Chaque semaine, on se focalise sur un sujet qu’on décortique ensemble. Le thème est annoncé, souvent via le [groupe WhatsApp ](https://chat.whatsapp.com/G3By4PVqhqdKuQbMTs1rwo?mode=gi_t) quelques pistes pour lancer les échanges. Les thèmes sont très variés et toutes les suggestions sont prises en compte (la beauté, la richesse, la loyauté...) Quand on est plus de 7 ou 8, on se divise en petits groupes pour garder une ambiance fluide et éviter que ça ressemble à une conférence. **Déroulé type d’une soirée** Voici comment se passe une rencontre : * **19h00-19h15** : On arrive, on papote, on fait connaissance dans une ambiance détendue. * **19h15-19h25** : Petit topo pour présenter Practical philosophie le sujet du jour, les règles et le timing. * **19h25-20h45** : On se répartit en petits groupes, on se présente, on partage nos premières idées sur le sujet, puis on passe à une discussion libre. Des questions “d’amorce” sont là pour guider si besoin, mais rien d’obligatoire. * **21h00-21h30** : Tout le monde se regroupe pour faire le point. Chaque groupe partage un résumé rapide (1 minute) de ses conclusions. On termine par un mot de l’organisateur et une photo de groupe. * **Après 21h00** : La partie officielle est finie, mais c’est le moment parfait pour prolonger les discussions autour d’un verre ou d’un café, histoire de renforcer les liens. **🧧 COMBIEN ÇA COÛTE ?** C’est **GRATUIT** ! Si on se retrouve dans un café, on vous demande juste de prendre une conso. **💛 CE QUE LES GENS EN PENSENT** 🗣 *“Le Club de Philosophie, c’est un endroit où on construit ses propres idées à travers différents points de vue, sans qu’on nous dise ce qui est bien ou mal.”* – Ekam 🗣 *“J’ai accroché dès le premier jour (le sujet était l’autorité) et j’ai tout de suite senti que c’était ma place. C’est un espace où on apprend, on découvre de nouvelles perspectives, on booste sa pensée critique et on crée du lien avec des gens qui challengent nos idées tout en encourageant l’ouverture d’esprit.”* – Daniel **🤓 FAQ** * **Faut-il préparer ou lire quelque chose avant ?** Aucune préparation nécessaire ! On ne révise pas les grands philosophes, on veut savoir ce que **vous** pensez. Si vous avez une idée inspirée d’une religion ou d’une école de pensée, partagez-la, on en discutera. * **Y a-t-il une philosophie spécifique au centre des discussions ?** Non, pas de dogme ici ! On veut entendre toutes les idées, sans se limiter à une école particulière, pour muscler notre pensée critique. * **C’est surtout des mecs qui viennent ?** Pas du tout ! Contrairement à l’image de la philo dans un salon sombre, nos rencontres sont équilibrées et sans ambiance lugubre ! * **Je peux venir seul(e) ?** Oui, on encourage même ça ! :) * **Et si je suis en retard ?** On préférerait que vous soyez à l’heure ! On a 15 minutes de battement au début si besoin. * **Où se passent les rencontres ?** Le lieu est annoncé sur Meetup et dans notre [groupe Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/G3By4PVqhqdKuQbMTs1rwo?mode=gi_t) Envoyez moi un message pour rejoindre le groupe 😊 Pour découvrir les autres villes où le Club existe, checkez notre [site web](https://www.practicalphilosophy.club/). **LE CLUB DE PHILOSOPHIE PRATIQUE – LA PHILO POUR TOUS ! ✨** On organise des rencontres hebdomadaires en présentiel dans plus de 25 pays, comme le Canada, l’Espagne, le Japon, le Mexique et bien d’autres ! 🗺️ **\*\*\*** **Rejoignez notre [groupe Whatsapp Paris](https://chat.whatsapp.com/KkFwIL85vly3UefjyheHXh) 👈** **Suivez-nous sur [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/practicalphilosophyclub/) 👈** **Visitez notre [site web](https://www.practicalphilosophy.club/) 👈** **✨ IF YOU ARE AN ENGLISH SPEAKER YOU ARE VERY WELCOME.

If eligible, we will send one to you within 1-2 business days after the workshop. **Voucher note**: Classes are free for everyone but vouchers are for residents of Franklin county or participating community (list here: https://www.communitybackyards.org/participate) 2026 Participating Vendors: City Folk's Farm Shop, Fisher's Gardens, Leaves for Wildlife, Scioto Gardens, Hoover Gardens & Gift Center, and the FSWCD/SWACO Compost Bin Sale. *when redeeming your voucher at a vendor, Please bring a physical copy of your voucher to receive an immediate discount on your purchase.
