**El Mapa del Alma: El viaje de Arjuna y el arte de vivir con propósito**
Todos atravesamos momentos en los que nos sentimos perdidos. Dudas, miedo, incertidumbre, decisiones difíciles... instantes en los que nuestra brújula interior parece dejar de funcionar.
Hace más de dos mil años, el *Bhagavad Gita* abordó estas mismas preguntas a través de la historia de Arjuna, un guerrero paralizado ante el mayor desafío de su vida. Lo que sigue es uno de los diálogos más profundos jamás escritos sobre el propósito, el sentido de la existencia, el deber, la libertad y la paz interior.
En esta conferencia descubriremos cómo las enseñanzas atemporales del *Bhagavad Gita* pueden ayudarnos a afrontar los conflictos de la vida moderna con mayor claridad, fortaleza y serenidad. Exploraremos cómo transformar el miedo en coraje, la confusión en sabiduría y la acción cotidiana en un camino de crecimiento personal y espiritual.
Una invitación a descubrir una espiritualidad práctica, profunda y sorprendentemente actual, diseñada para personas reales que buscan respuestas auténticas a las grandes preguntas de la vida.
**¿Qué aprenderás?**
* El significado simbólico del viaje de Arjuna y su aplicación a nuestra vida.
* Cómo tomar decisiones alineadas con nuestros valores y propósito.
* La diferencia entre actuar desde el ego o desde una conciencia más elevada.
* Herramientas para gestionar la incertidumbre, el miedo y los cambios vitales.
* Claves para encontrar paz interior sin renunciar a la acción y a los desafíos del mundo.
**Una conferencia para quienes sienten que ha llegado el momento de dejar de sobrevivir y empezar a vivir con mayor consciencia, dirección y significado.**
**Ponente:** Chaturika Sakhi - Facilitadora de Breathwork con enfoque ACT (Respiración Consciente), IG: [www.instagram.com/elartedehabitar_se](www.instagram.com/elartedehabitar_se)

[Viernes] Debate: Hablar con desconocidos
[Únete a nuestro grupo de Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/B6JuLOG3HDMCwweahpKsqM?mode=hq1tsha)
# 🗣️ Debate: Hablar con Desconocidos
**Facilitado por Joan, analista del comportamiento y creador de experiencias de conexión social.**
¿Y si una simple conversación pudiera cambiar tu día?
La mayoría de las personas que hoy forman parte de nuestra vida fueron desconocidos en algún momento. Sin embargo, en un mundo cada vez más conectado digitalmente, muchas veces evitamos interactuar con quienes tenemos justo delante.
Hablar con desconocidos puede generar incomodidad, curiosidad, oportunidades inesperadas, nuevas amistades o simplemente recordarnos que compartimos más de lo que imaginamos.
Joan compartirá técnicas prácticas basadas en la psicología y el comportamiento humano para iniciar conversaciones, generar confianza rápidamente y conectar con personas que no conocemos de forma natural y auténtica.
## Preguntas para el debate
* ¿Te resulta fácil hablar con desconocidos?
* ¿Cuál fue tu mejor conversación con alguien que no conocías?
* ¿Qué te anima a iniciar una conversación?
* ¿Qué suele frenarte?
* ¿Influye el lugar o el contexto?
* ¿Hablarías igual en otro país o cultura?
* ¿Qué señales transmiten confianza?
* ¿Te has arrepentido de no acercarte a alguien?
* ¿Qué prejuicios hacemos sobre los desconocidos?
* ¿Cómo cambia tu estado de ánimo una interacción positiva?
* ¿Puede una conversación breve generar conexión real?
* ¿Qué hace que un desconocido deje de serlo?
## ¿Cómo será la actividad?
La reunión estará organizada en pequeños grupos para que todos puedan participar, compartir experiencias y escuchar perspectivas diferentes en un ambiente cercano, respetuoso y dinámico.
No es necesario tener experiencia previa ni ser especialmente extrovertido. Solo venir con curiosidad y ganas de conversar.
☕ **Aportación:** 3 € en efectivo
🍻 Tomar algo en el local
**Las mejores conversaciones de nuestra vida suelen empezar con alguien a quien aún no conocemos.**
¡Te esperamos!

Alternative Barcelona tour: Colonisation, past and present
Most history tours in Barcelona focus entirely on Roman ruins, Gothic cathedrals, and buildings created by Gaudí. This tour looks at the same streets but asks a completely different question: Where did the money come from to build this city, and whose stories were erased to tell the official one?
Led by Angie Molina (an architect, museologist, and researcher) and Camila Opazo Sepúlveda (an archaeologist, anthropologist, and researcher), the walk unpacks the deep, often hidden connections between Barcelona and the global colonial system.
Some of the themes and history we will explore include:
\- The Architecture of Wealth
\- Human Zoos in the City
\- Statues and Public Memory
\- Resistance and Agency
🗺️ About the Tour
This project is run by two women PhD researchers from South America. They pull back the curtain on Barcelona's traditional history, exploring the hidden colonial ties, wealth, and global stories built right into the streets we walk every day.
📅 **The Details**
**When**: Saturday, July 4th at 18:00 (6:00 PM)
**Language**: English 🇬🇧
**Cost:** €20 per person (all proceeds will directly to the guides. This is a non-profit project; 100% of the fee goes to supporting their independent academic research and keeping the project alive )
**Where:** Meeting point around Las Ramblas (details will be sent one day before the tour)

Fuera de Mapa - donde empiezan las ideas que aún no te atreves a nombrar
**Cuando pensar más no es la solución.**
Todos hemos pasado por ahí: listas interminables, análisis excesivo y la sensación de que, por muchas vueltas que le demos a una idea, no termina de encajar. El pensamiento lineal tiene un límite. Para llegar a donde la lógica no alcanza, hay que cambiar de canal.
**Fuera de Mapa** es una experiencia de Pensamiento Tangible®, que convierte lo que tienes en la cabeza, ideas, dudas, intuiciones sin nombre, en algo que puedes ver, tocar y transformar.
**Lo práctico, antes de nada:**
* Plaça de Maragall 8, Barcelona
* 75 € por persona **✨ Entrada Para dos - precio de lanzamiento ✨**
* Grupo exclusivo, máximo 8 personas por ahora.
* Incluye todos los materiales (materiales diversos para crear tu Brújula Personal para llevar a casa, y copas de vino y snacks).
**Qué pasa en la sesión:**
Vamos a conversar de manera diferente, a reconectar, a jugar con ideas y posibilidades y a mirar lo que te importa desde otro lugar. Trabajaremos con las manos y con materiales diversos para dar forma a lo que te mueve y quieres crear.
**Qué te llevas:**
Aparte de la experiencia y claridad, tu Brújula Personal. Saldrás con una pieza física creada por ti. No es un adorno; es el recordatorio táctil de tus próximos pasos. Un objeto que tu cerebro reconoce como una decisión ya tomada.
Y, además, un método para toda la vida. Una forma distinta de abordar tus retos cuando el pensamiento lógico no es suficiente.
**Lo que necesitas saber:**
No necesitas experiencia ni habilidades concretas.
Esto va de conectar contigo mismo y lo que ya está en ti. Tu intuición ya lo sabe!
Reserva tu sitio y descubre lo que pasa cuando dejas que **tus manos te muestren el camino.**
Si no bebes vino, avísanos con antelación y preparamos otra bebida para ti.
🎟️ **Reserva de plaza (Imprescindible):** Para esta experiencia las plazas son muy limitadas. Estar apuntado aquí en Meetup no garantiza el acceso.

Recruiting Virtual Mental Health Group Leaders!
We are recruiting new group leaders for virtual men's groups! Our primary groups are outdoor movement groups, but we are launching virtual groups for the state of Ohio and beyond and the groups will move outside in the spring, creating room for men's groups, women's groups and coed groups all over the country.
Read below to learn about our groups and click the links at the bottom to apply.
### **What is an Outdoor Empowerment Group?**
Our Outdoor Movement & Community Empowerment Groups are simple, guided experiences designed to help people reconnect with nature, themselves, and others. We combine some form of movement (hike, walk, run, bike, yoga, workout) and meaningful conversation within a simple community circle to create a space where individuals can support each other while prioritizing mental and physical well-being.
Whether you’re seeking stress relief, personal growth, or community, our groups offer everyone a unique and welcoming environment.
## **Why Join?**
* **Improve Mental & Physical Well-Being** – Movement, nature, and supportive conversations reduce stress and promote balance.
* **Feel Less Alone** – Build genuine connections with like-minded people in a safe, welcoming space.
* **Gain Clarity & Perspective** – Step outside daily routines and into a space designed for personal growth and reflection.
## **The Ideal Group Leader**
The ideal group leader
* Has a born-in passion for mental health, movement, connecting with nature and building community.
* Has 5 extra hours per week to dedicate to a meaningful cause for at least one year. Yes, you can leave any organization at any time and we can also ask you to leave, but we are building with legacy in mind and we need people who can commit and be ALL IN on this mission to build with us.
* Is independently financially stable with the ability to volunteer with no expectation of pay. This is a deeply beautiful journey of service that all participants commit to at Speak Your Mind.

* A noticeable improvement in mental clarity and emotional well-being.
* An increase in social connection and a sense of belonging.
* Said they would return again.
We believe mental health should be accessible, community-driven, and rooted in nature. Join us and take the first step toward a more connected, grounded, and supported version of yourself.
### **Why Our Groups are Donation-Based**
Our Outdoor Movement Groups are made possible through a donation-based model. This approach allows us to keep our events accessible to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances, while also ensuring that we can continue expanding our reach. It’s a great way to pay it forward and support the growth of this beautiful mission!
Every contribution helps us:
* **Cover Essential Costs** – Donations allow us to pay essential legal, marketing, insurance, and admin costs as well as nourish the important people who run the organization.
* **Grow Our Mission** – With your support, we can bring these healing experiences to thousands more people in the future and execute our long term plan to expand across the USA, affecting up to 500,000 people per year.
By choosing to contribute, you’re not just leading an event—you’re helping build a mental health movement that supports long-term well-being and connection for all during a severe mental health epidemic.

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Learning from Everyday Data
**Practical Curiosity: Learning from Everyday Data**
How do we actually get better at utilizing our day-to-day data? Fancy dashboards and complex models might look nice and draw attention, but that’s not where most of us spend our time. In fact those shiny outputs frequently sit unused, while the real insights are drawn from the analyst’s daily practice.
Sometimes it’s as simple and as powerful as noticing that a segment is shrinking, a channel is underused, or certain links keep getting all the clicks. There’s many different places that the spark of insight can come from, but you have to keep your head in the data and know where to look.
In this session, we’ll explore real-world examples of how segmentation, testing, and click behavior can uncover practical digital marketing opportunities. You’ll leave with inspiration for your own use cases, along with a few simple ways to ask better questions, spot meaningful patterns, and make smarter decisions without overcomplicating it.
**About Our Speaker:**
[Elaine Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/elainearmbruster/) is a Director of Digital Experience at the [American Diabetes Association](https://diabetes.org/), where she focuses on using data and insights to create smarter, more effective digital experiences. A lifelong Columbus resident, she has built her career in email marketing and the broader digital user journey, and is finding she most enjoys working in the messy middle where systems, data, and big ideas don’t quite line up yet.

————————————
Engaging in men’s work is the new way to forge friendships while being open-minded to personal growth. Many men experience healthier relationships, personally and professionally, by engaging in this work.
Open Men’s Group is a container for men to share vulnerably without receiving judgment or feedback.
We believe that emotionally mature, powerful, compassionate, and purpose-driven men will help heal some of society’s deepest wounds. We support the powerful brilliance of men and we are willing to look at, and take full responsibility for, the pain we are also capable of creating – and suffering. We care deeply about men, our families, communities, and the planet.

IxDA Chat n Pancakes
You can sleep in on the Sesquicentennial (observed), we’re shifting to the following Friday.
But join the local UX community for a chat and some biscuits to catch up. If you were in CA for Figma Config, tell us all the lines and you can tell me how I can animate an SVG without coding it by hand, and why I’d even want to.
Thanks to the team at Nationwide of supporting the group.
