Business & Personal Development Workshops

Spend time in the company of other writers putting pen to paper, or fingers to keyboard. Work on your current project or start something new. If you are fresh out of inspiration a member of the Wordcraft Collective will be ready with a prompt to get you going. You can use that to unlock your creative brain before moving back to your own project or run with it. Who knows where the story will take you? Arrive when you like, leave when you like, or join us for a drink in the bar downstairs afterwards. Location: Pianofabriek, Rue du Fort 35, 1060 Saint-Gilles.

**☕Singles Coffee Event** **A relaxed coffee meetup to meet, talk, and connect** This is a **casual and free coffee meetup** for singles who simply want to meet new people and have real conversations.

**Cinema Flagey : In die Sonne schauen** 17/01 @ 16h20 Four girls, each living in a different era – from the last century to the present – reside in the same place: a four-sided farmhouse in the German Altmark. Through their eyes, we gain direct insights into their everyday lives. Yet, no matter how diverse their experiences are, beneath their associative flow of images, increasingly discernible connections emerge: patterns of repetition. Four decades of summers gradually merge into an eternal summer, an everlasting now. The film explores what endures within us through the ages, what shapes us, and perhaps even gazes back at us from beyond time, from the future. After extensive research, a screenplay has been developed that delves into the inner experiences of these four girls. In free association, the film shifts back and forth across different times, capturing fragmented personal observations and memories of the characters. It feels as if we are thrown directly into their lives, as if we could see through their eyes. Gradually, the footage assembles before us into a collective stream of memory – a tangible, physical remembrance of ancestors. Images of past experiences suddenly reappear as distorted reenactments in different eras, plunging the characters into a déjà-vu-like trance.

Unwind & relax with an amazing combination of Yin Yoga and Yoga Nidra. **Yin Yoga** encourages flexibility and mobility and is suitable for ALL levels. It’s a passive but deep practice with long-held and gentle stretches of the connective tissue. Yin Yoga opens the body on a deeper level . It also prepares you for ultimate deep relaxation. **Yoga Nidra** means *yogic sleep*. This practice invites you to stay awake and alert while in Savasana. In this state we strengthen our intuition coming from the unconscious mind. As the mind becomes withdrawn and one-pointed, consciousness is maintained. The physical, mental and emotional relaxation creates space for insights and healing. The only thing you need to do is to listen to the instructions during the whole practice without falling asleep 😊. In the Raja Yoga Sutras (1:38), Rishi Patanjali states: *"SvapnaNidrajnanalambanam va”* meaning “The mind can be made steady by giving it knowledge of dream and sleep for support.” Each session will enhance a specific topic. Each session includes: · Yin Yoga practice 60min · Yoga Nidra practice 45min · Cozy moments with herbal tea, healthy vegan snack on the go 15min On the spot available: yoga mats, bolsters, blocks, lavender eye pillows, blankets.

This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
