NONDUALISMI - MINÄTÖN MINÄ SATSANG TAPAAMISET
```
Nondualismi - minätön minä tapaamisissa kokoonnumme yhdessä tutkimaan sitä, mikä olemisessa on todellisinta — avoimena olevaa, ajatonta tietoisuuden luontoa, joka on jokaisen ihmisen syvin ja aidoin olemus. Ohjattujen harjoitusten muodossa saamme omakohtaisen kokemuksen ja oivalluksen siitä mitä nondualismi tarkoittaa.
Open Heart -opetuksissa nondualismi ei ole abstrakti filosofia vaan suoran kokemuksen asia. Satsangissa pointataan suoraan tähän suoraan kokemukseen. Satsangissa on tilaa kysymyksille, yhteiselle meditaatiolle ja avoimelle jakamiselle. Tervetuloa riippumatta kokemustasosta.
Ohjaaja: Amrita Sangita (Helena Nymark), Vidyadhara. Vidyadhara arvonimi, jonka Sangita on saanut opettajaltaan keväällä 2026. Se osoittaa toteutunutta ymmärrystä ja kykyä välittää opetusta suoran kokemuksen kautta (direct transmission, direct introdcution).

### **Workshop overview**
In this workshop, we move beyond the surface of "making" to the depth of "being." We use the rhythmic nature of textile arts to weave a kinder, more resilient relationship with ourselves.

* Reflect: Through guided self-compassion practices, we’ll share stories of belonging and identify the symbols that mirror your unique inner landscape.
* Create: Bring your personal narrative to life. Whether through the meditative flow of crochet or the vibrant exploration of color, you will create a tangible reminder of your own strength.
### **Program**
* Arrival & Grounding: Creating a safe space for shared presence.
* The Heart of Self-Compassion: Understanding how to build a kind relationship with our inner selves.
* Ancestral Wisdom: A brief history of traditional Turkish motifs and the emotions they represent.
* Guided Practice: A mindful self-compassion meditation to connect with your current emotional landscape.
* Creative Weaving: Expressing your emotions through motifs using crochet or drawing.
* Closing Circle: One stitch for everyone. Contributing to our collective sense of belonging
### **Who Is This For?**
This workshop is open to all. Whether you are picking up a crochet hook for the first time or are a seasoned fiber artist, you are welcome here.
Beginners: No prior "artistic talent" is necessary. We provide a gentle, supportive environment to learn.
Experienced Creators: Find new depth and symbolic meaning in your existing practice.
This workshop is in English, therefore communicating and understanding English is necessary for participation.

**MIITTI’s Principles for safer space:**
MIITTI wants to nourish a safe and pleasant environment for everyone, where everyone can feel safe as themselves. By joining as a volunteer, employee or participant of the event or activity, you agree to follow the guidelines below
*Non-discrimination*
I do not make assumptions about people based on their external characteristics or names. I treat all participants with respect, and I don’t use language or take actions that discriminate based on race, gender, sexuality, disability, age, religion, or any other characteristic. I respect pronouns and names.
*Boundaries*
I respect others' personal space and boundaries, both physical and mental. I acknowledge that I cannot know someone else's boundaries without asking first. I ask before touching. I listen to others and adapt my behavior if someone indicates that my behavior makes them feel uncomfortable.
*Creating Safe Environment*
Everyone is responsible for contributing to a safe and respectful environment. If I witness harassment, I do my part to support those who experience inappropriate or offensive treatment.
*Zero Tolerance for Harassment*
Our space upholds a strict zero-tolerance policy towards any form of harassment. Harassment, whether verbal, physical, or online, will not be tolerated.

Bajo Un Mismo Sol - Collective Sonic Art Research
**Explore sounds of belonging, for you and for others in a three-days’ workshop**
**When**: 18th, 19th & 20th of May
**Time:** 13.30-18.30
**Where:** Sibelius Academy
Töölönlahdenkatu 16 C, 2nd floor
The workshop "Bajo un mismo sol" is bilateral and happens simultaneously with participants in Medellín.
All together we will train careful listening to places, make and share recordings of places we feel belonging to, and create collective sound maps in the mobile app MSWalks on Kansalaistori, in front of Oodi library, and on the square of Medellín Modern Art Museum.
On these sound maps that activate when we walk across the squares with our phones' speakers, we will also improvise with small custom-designed solar-powered electroacoustic instruments.
Participating does not require any background in music, but an interest in sound, for encountering new people and sharing ideas related to identity and memories.
A careful listening attitude is central to the activities, as well as an interest for sharing and conversing within respect of differences.
This workshop is related to a research and the registered participants will receive detailed information prior to decide on consenting to participate to the research.
The activities will be documented for research purposes and there are various options for being or not included in the documentation.
You may participate to the whole workshop or select the times that suit the best to your schedules.
**After registering you will anyway be contacted and given more information, but you may as well ask information prior to registration by email at marianne.decoster-taivalkoski@uniarts.fi.**

Marianne Decoster-Taivalkoski (IG: marianne.d_t ) is a media and sound artist with French origins and based in Helsinki since 1993. She works in music and technology program at the Sibelius Academy of the University of the Arts Helsinki as a lecturer and an artist- researcher.

Vibe Coding Finland: May meetup with Antilooppi at VERK
Welcome to our May meetup in Helsinki, arranged together with Antilooppi (https://antilooppi.fi/).
Schedule:
17:00 Doors open!
17:30 Welcome words by organizers and Antilooppi
17:40 **The Spec-Driven Revolution: Building the 20X Development Engine**
**By Dr Jukka Ala-Mutka, Founder of Managentics**
Traditional SaaS is hitting a wall. As job security and project timelines face constant pressure, the "Artisan Coding" model is being replaced by AI-native pipelines. In this session, Jukka also shares how Managentics is operationalising "Spec-Driven Development" to achieve results that were previously impossible.
In this deep dive, we will explore:
* The Specification Factory: How Managentics transforms raw business intent into high-fidelity agent specifications. This is the "Intent-to-Specs" phase, where business logic is refined into structured blueprints before a single line of code is written.
* The Industrial Assembly Line for Software: How we treat platform development not as a manual craft, but as a process-driven assembly line. We apply industrial management principles to digital creation, ensuring every feature follows a repeatable, high-velocity path from the factory to production.
* The Power of SDD and TDD: Moving the source of truth from ephemeral syntax to structured business logic (Spec-Driven Development) and rigorous automated validation (Test-Driven Development). In this engine, specifications are the blueprints, and tests are the quality gates.
* The 20X Development Engine: How this automated approach achieved 20x efficiency, delivering 200,000 lines of production-grade code in just 3 months.
If you’re interested in moving beyond simple prompting to building industrial-scale autonomous capabilities through process-driven management, this talk is for you.
About the Speaker: Jukka Ala-Mutka is a Dr Sc. & BSc in Construction Management with over 20 years of experience in strategy and technology. As the founder of Managentics, he is pioneering the "Intent-to-Specs" pipeline, helping organisations transition from human-centric tools to autonomous agent swarms.
\*5 min break\*
18:15 **"Building Viral Apps People Love" by Jarno Silander, Founder of Kinoon.fi and Head of Growth at Droppe.**
The world is full of digital experiences that fail people. Previously you just had to put up with it, but not anymore thanks to AI. In this session, Jarno shares practical advice on finding your next project and building experiences worth sharing, using the viral cinema platform Kinoon.fi as a working example.
In this session, we’ll dive into:
* **The Kinoon.fi story**: how virality generated the first 20k users and put Kinoon on track for €800k+ in annual partner sales.
* **Finding your next project**: UX arbitrage and using pain as a compass.
* **Building shareworthy experiences**: UX frameworks, mental models, and tips that turn users into your distribution channel.
* **When taste ends and science begins**: measuring what matters and running experiments to surface unintuitive wins.
* **How to just do things**: getting out of your own way.
About the speaker: Jarno Silander is a curious startup founder-operator with 7 years of experience helping startups find product-market-fit and scale to their next growth stage.

Sahaja Yoga meditaatiokurssi suomeksi
Tervetuloa mukaan Sahaja Jooga -meditaatiotilaisuuksiin suomeksi! Tilaisuudet ovat maksuttomia, ja voit tulla paikalle ilman ennakkoilmoittautumista. Istumme yleensä tuoleilla tai lattialla tyynyillä, joten mattoa ei tarvitse ottaa mukaan, ja voit pukeutua tavallisiin vaatteisiin.
Meditaatio tarkoittaa mielen hiljaisuutta tai ajatuksetonta tietoisuutta. Olet läsnä tässä hetkessä, mutta mielesi ei ole täynnä menneisyyden tai tulevaisuuden ajatuksia. Tässä tilassa tunnet rauhaa ja iloa, jotka ovat nykyhetken olennaisia elementtejä. Säännöllisellä meditaatioharjoituksella tämän tilan voi saada vakiintumaan meissä.
Ryhmää johtavat vapaaehtoiset, joilla on kokemusta ja jotka voivat ohjata sinut alkuun. Annamme lyhyen johdatuksen meditaatioon, minkä jälkeen teemme meditaatioharjoituksia. Annamme myös vinkkejä meditaation harjoittamiseen kotona.
Tervetuloa!

**15:30 to 17:30 - Jam Session Part 1**
As more experienced players turn up, we will play a range of songs which everyone can join in with.
This is when the sing-a-long / play-a-long really starts. The second part of this session often has a theme around an artists, genre or season. Each song has an instrumental section, and we encourage people to improvise, harmonise or just to play it as they feel it.

Please bring a tablet if you have one so you can also access the songbook at ukejam.online ... or you can use one of our TV screens we will have dotted around the place.
We will have a limited number of spare ukuleles and guitars. If you don't play anything, you are welcome to come and just hangout, sing if you want to. If you like, pick up a ukulele, and someone will help you play a few simple chords and play along.
If you have your own instrument, it is best to bring it. Also if you have a tablet, you can access the songbook at ukejam.online and then you don't have to stare at the TV screen all night.
Everyone is welcome ... we also have a community WhatsApp group that you can join when you come to the event.
We aim to be a safe and inclusive space for everyone. Beginners and experienced musicians are equally welcome.

### **Workshop overview**
Drawing Your Path to Growth & Potential. Can you reshape your reality with just a marker in your hand?
Welcome to NeuroTree, an immersive workshop grounded in the intersection of psychology, neuroscience, and creative research. Using the Neurographic method, we move beyond traditional art to engage in a unique dialogue with the subconscious mind.
The "NeuroTree" is one of the most powerful algorithms in this practice. It is a visual metaphor for your life, allowing you to use your past experiences as the "roots" that fuel your future achievements and "branches" of potential.
Neurographics is a meditative drawing process that uses specialized lines and shapes to help "rewire" your emotional response to challenges
Join us!
### **The Journey**
* Identify Your Roots: Transform your previous experiences and lessons into a solid foundation for growth.
* Cultivate Your Potential: Use the NeuroTree algorithm to visualise and manifest new goals, habits, and achievements.
* Harmonise Your Mind: Learn the "rounding" technique to smooth out internal conflicts and create a sense of psychological flow.
* Shape Your Reality: Discover how intentional drawing can shift your perspective and unlock new pathways in your life.
### **Who Is This For?**
This workshop is open to everyone. **No art skills or previous drawing experience are required.** If you are looking for a creative, science-backed way to manage overthinking, boost your confidence, or simply explore your potential, you are in the right place.
This workshop is in English, therefore communicating and understanding English is necessary for participation.

It's all about meeting people, and about enjoying music together ... more like a camp fire sing-a-long where everyone is welcome.
Full Circle
Full Circle is a community of practice where mental health and wellbeing professionals come together to learn, share, and grow.
If you’re a mental health or wellbeing practitioner who thrives on shared wisdom and community, Full Circle offers a space where you can connect, grow, and bring fresh insights back into your client work.
**Full Circle is for professionals who work with clients in mental health or wellbeing** (e.g. psychotherapists, counsellors, art therapists, coaches, and others integrating mind–body approaches) .
A community of practice is a space where we come together as professionals to share our experiences, challenges, and insights, not to be taught, but to learn from each other.
Full Circle is about connection, not workshops. It’s a circle of peers, not a classroom.
**By registering for this event, you agree to stand by our shared principles:**
* Confidentiality: What is shared in the circle stays in the circle.
* Presence: We give our full attention to each other, listening deeply.
* Respect: Every voice matters; we value different perspectives and approaches.
* Curiosity: We come to explore, not to give definitive answers.
* Contribution: Everyone is encouraged to share practices, cases, and reflections.
* Commitment: We show up consistently, knowing the community grows through regular participation.
**How our gatherings work**:
We gather **once a month** in person, and every time we move through the same process:
* *Check-in*: We begin by going around the circle, with each person sharing what’s present for them in the moment.
* *Shared practice*: One member of the community leads the group through a method, exercise, or embodied practice from their own field. Everyone experiences it first-hand.
* *Integration dialogue*: Together, we explore what the practice brought up and how it might be woven into our client work.
* *Check-out*: Each person shares one insight they will carry with them.

How to be a Better Communicator - A Free Seminar
Communication is everything in life!
You are only as successful as your ability to communicate.
\- What if you could confidently talk to anyone?
\- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation?
\- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence?
You can!
The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate.
