From Overwhelm to Ease - an EFT Tapping Workshop By Roshanak Zaredoost Brussels, 13 May 2026 Rgeister Here: https://www.imaginationclub.org/brussels/from_overwhelm_to_ease.php Living abroad is an adventure - and also quietly exhausting. New country, new language, new identity. Your nervous system is working overtime, even when life looks good on the outside. In this hands-on workshop, you'll discover Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT tapping): a gentle, evidence-based tool that combines acupressure and mindset work to help you release stress, calm anxiety, and reconnect with yourself - wherever in the world you are. What you'll take away: \* A practical tapping routine you can use anytime, anywhere - in 5 minutes or less - to bring your nervous system back to calm. \* A deeper understanding of the stress cycle - why your body reacts the way it does, and how to interrupt it with compassion rather than willpower. \* Personalised tapping phrases that speak to your specific challenges - loneliness, identity, overwhelm, not fitting in - so the tool actually feels like yours. \* A sense of being seen and understood - in a room full of people who get it, because they're living it too. No experience needed - just bring yourself, exactly as you are. You'll leave with a tool for life and a little more peace in your body. Join us for From "Overwhelm to Ease" and take the first step toward a calmer, freer, more authentic you. About Roshanak Born in Iran and living abroad for over 41 years, she has spent a lifetime navigating the beautiful complexity of building a life far from home. That journey - with all its richness, displacement, and reinvention - is at the heart of everything she does as an EFT coach. Her path to EFT was forged through her own transformation. She has walked through financial dependency, emotional dependency, abusive relationships, overeating, and the quiet suffering of a woman who had lost her voice - and come out the other side. Not by chance, but through deep, committed inner work. EFT was the tool that helped her break free from limiting beliefs one by one, and she has never stopped using it on herself. That ongoing personal practice is the foundation of everything she brings to her clients. Today, as an EFT coach whose practice is rooted in lived experience, she specialises in guiding women abroad through stress, anxiety, and overwhelm - helping them calm their nervous system, shed what no longer serves them, and step into a life of authenticity and self-love. Fluent in 6 languages and passionate about human connection, she meets every woman exactly where she is - with compassion, understanding, and the quiet confidence of someone who has been there. Her greatest joy is watching her clients step into their own freedom - emotionally balanced, self-aware, and unapologetically themselves. You can learn more about Roshanak and her work at...

**First time comers** Please make sure to read the rules and contact the organizer before! Otherwise you will be moved to waiting list. Apologies for inconvenience but we have to do it to avoid no-shows. **Games format.** 95% are double games (unless someone needs a break), typically 4 people play together 2 sets and then mix with players from other fields. We play with plastic shuttles - Yonex Mavis 2000 (which are provided). **Registration** If it's your first time, please send a private message to the host to confirm. No-shows are taken quite seriously because they unbalance the games a lot. Also once you register please keep an eye on you private messages, in case we need to contact you. **Players level** Having players with much less experience often unbalances the game making it much less interesting for more experienced players. We still try to be welcoming. As a rule of thumb, if you know what a "clear" is, you are welcome to join. (Note that on Sundays the attitude is a bit more relaxed than on Wednesdays, it's the weekend after all ;) ) Otherwise, feel free to get in touch with me (Timur) and we can see if we can arrange so you and existing players can have good experience playing. **Price and payments** The price of participation is EUR 8.95. Payment is on-site in cash, or via payconiq. Info provided during or shortly after the event. **Cancelations and no-shows** * Switches and cancellations are free of charge if done more than 50 hours before the start of the matches * If you cancel within the 50-hour window before the event starts, you will be placed on the wait-list for the next week's event, whether or not a replacement is found. If no replacement is secured, you'll still need to cover your share of the costs.

This hike takes us through the ***forests of the Ardennes*** between Namur and Dinant passing several ***picturesque villages*** along the way. We start in Godinne where we enter the forest almost immediately after leaving the village. The route leads us to the ***Abbey of Maredsous*** where we take a well‑deserved break to taste their ***famous beers and cheeses*** [www.tourisme-maredsous.be/?lang=en](http://www.tourisme-maredsous.be/?lang=en) After this stop we continue towards ***the Château de Montaigle***, the impressive castle ruins near ***Falaën.*** For the final part of the hike we mainly follow the ***GR 129*** guiding us through the ***Ardennes landscape*** to our destination Yvoir. ***After our hike*** we continue our good habit of ***taking a nice beer/pancake/snack in a local pub*** in Yvoir before returning to Brussels. **Please don't forget to pay Maikel a drink :-)** We will walk at ***an average speed of 5km/h*** both on paved and unpaved roads. ***I’ve never walked this road before so it’s possible that there are some mistakes in the planning***. This means it could become longer. **●●Meeting point** We meet at ***08h50 in front of Starbucks in Brussels Central***. The train (IC2509 – Yvoir) leaves from ***platform 3 at 09h07***. We arrive at our ***destination Godinne at 10h35*** and start our hike to the ***Maredsous Abbey and Yvoir***. ***●● Train tickets*** \- single ticket Brussels to Godinne \(9\,60 € weekend / 5\,80 € with train card\+\) \- single ticket Yvoir to Brussels \(10\,20 € weekend / 6\,10 € with train card\+\) ***●● Trains back to Brussels*** There is a ***direct train every hour*** from Yvoir to Brussels at xx:21 ***LAST TRAIN = 21h21*** **●● Specifics** distance: \~ 27 km elevation gain: \~ 502 m net walking time ***(breaks are not included here):*** \~ 6h00 level: ***intermediate – hiking expercience is an advantage*** In the unlikely case of too bad weather we may cancel a hike even few hours before the event.

Welcome to our weekly event in the upstairs room of The Sister Café, rue Chair et Pain 3, one block from the Grand Place. Please get there early enough to order your drink at the bar first. Thank you! After introductions we will collect questions from the group participants, choose one by voting then discuss it for an hour. Then most of us stay for drinks and bizarre conversations. Past questions have been wide and not confined to academic philosophy: What is a genuine friend? Is social media turning us into emotional zombies? Do we lose some of the experience of things by defining them? Are we driven by sex? Is loneliness a personal failure? Is morality relative? **Crucially, be kind and respectful and generous** in your disagreements; remember how much you personally enjoy someone else proving you wrong before celebrating your cutting counterexamples.

Customer identity resolution becomes increasingly complex as organizations scale across multiple systems, regions, and data formats. Traditional rule-based approaches often fail to keep up with data variability, require constant manual tuning, and struggle with real-time processing needs. This session presents a practical approach to building a scalable identity resolution pipeline using AWS services and modern AI techniques. The architecture combines data ingestion through Amazon S3 and AWS Glue, transformation pipelines using Spark on EMR, and machine learning models deployed via SageMaker for entity matching and standardization. Graph-based relationship modeling is implemented using Amazon Neptune to improve resolution accuracy by incorporating household and shared attribute context. We will walk through how machine learning models can be used for name and address normalization, how intelligent blocking strategies improve matching efficiency, and how feedback loops can be introduced to continuously improve accuracy.

The methodology of deploying from a build is now baked into our culture. Take it a touch farther with infrastructure as code and a few extra techniques, and you can reliably deploy to any platform: cloud, on-prem, container, PaaS, and more. Join us as we learn the methodology of GitOps, the critical pieces you need in place, and the elegance of rollbacks with GitOps. You'll leave with a working repo of deployment techniques that doesn't consume any paid tools or container-specific techniques.

Practical AI for Power BI Developers A year ago, “agentic AI” was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective. This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly. Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.

**Total Eclipse of the Chart: School Redistricting Dashboards** In this presentation, we will explore the utilization of maps, sets, and SQL within a Tableau dashboard to help provide “what-if” analyses generated through the use of a mapped dashboard, providing different scenarios and the potential implications of these. While in this use case we are focused on a large school district, the concepts of utilizing existing data to explore the future impacts of modifying different geographic boundaries can be useful to many industries, balancing the mix of maps with visual analytics. **About Our Speaker** Robert Kramer is the Data Systems and State Reporting Coordinator at South Western City Schools in Grove City.
