This is the second working session for the Abundance Federation Dublin group. After our February meetup we formed a team of four developers and four data scientists who've been working steadily on the platform and the first public AI dataset pilot. We're now looking to grow the team as the work expands. **Where we are** * The Kindness & volunteering platform is live but rough. Profiles, communities, messaging, tasks, quests and incentives all work, but it needs proper attention on both design and architecture before we push it toward a real MVP. Making it easy, coherent and genuinely fun to use matters as much as the engineering underneath — both have to land. * The first AI dataset pilot (Irish agricultural weed identification, with Transition Year students and adult volunteers) launches later this year. Tooling plans are written; the data team is working through them. The dataset side has real engineering work too — orchestration, pipelines, annotation tooling, and the interfaces volunteers will actually use — so the roles below apply across both teams. **Who we'd particularly like to meet** The work right now would especially benefit from: * UX designers or design-minded developers who care about making real software feel coherent, easy, and enjoyable to use * Python / Django developers who enjoy growing a real codebase * Backend developers comfortable with messy real-world systems * Database architects — we have decisions ahead that would benefit from experienced judgement * DevOps people who enjoy quietly making things reliable That said, this is a broad project and there's room for more than just those roles. Frontend developers, data scientists, technical writers, testers, community organisers, and people who just want to help in whatever way makes sense — all welcome. Come along, see what we're doing, and we'll figure out together where you might fit. People at any stage of their career are welcome. Experience is valuable, but so is persistence and follow-through — on a project like this, the people who keep showing up are the ones who shape what gets built. **On the night** * A short walkthrough of where the platform and data work are now (warts and all) * A clear-eyed look at the design and architectural questions we're working through * Small-group conversations to figure out what's most useful, what's feasible, and who might want to keep working on what * Pizza, soft drinks, and an optional pub afterwards for anyone up for it **Logistics** * Digital Hub, Dublin * Wednesday, June 10th, 7–9pm * Free, in-person, finishing on time at 9pm * RSVP through Meetup so we can plan numbers The wider Abundance Federation is a mission-locked civic initiative working on shared digital infrastructure to bring down the cost of essentials over the long term. The platform and the data work are the technical foundations of that — and they'll only be as good as the people who build them. Come along if you'd like to help shape what gets built.

Twin Hearts Meditation is a powerful practice, focusing on activating the heart and crown chakras (energy centres) to channel divine energy and promote healing and inner peace. One of the key benefits of Twin Hearts Meditation is its ability to reduce stress and anxiety. By tapping into the energies of love and compassion, practitioners can experience a deep sense of relaxation and tranquility, helping to alleviate mental and emotional tension. Additionally, Twin Hearts Meditation can enhance overall well-being by promoting physical healing and boosting the immune system. The practice is known to cleanse and energize the energy centers in the body, leading to improved health and vitality.

Dear beautiful souls, I’m so excited to finally share something very special that has been in creation for some time… 🌿 The Conscious Reset 🌿 On the eve of the June New Moon, we gather in the beautiful Mutton Lane Yoga Studio in Dublin 16 for an afternoon of transformation, intention, and energetic alignment. This experience is designed to help you reconnect with the power of your thoughts, your energy, and the frequency you choose to live from. Through Orla’s transformational masterclass Change Your Mind, Change Your Life, you’ll discover how even a single thought, belief, or intention has the power to shape your reality. By learning to shift mindset, raise vibration, and align with positive energy, we begin opening the path for new possibilities to come into fruition. As we move into the energy of the New Moon — a powerful portal for new beginnings and manifestation — you will be guided to consciously plant intentions for the life you wish to create. The journey then deepens through meditation, pranayama, and a signature sound healing experience using ancient instruments, Tibetan singing bowls, and therapeutic frequencies. Through vibration and sound, each participant will be supported individually to release energetic blockages, unlock inner clarity, and restore alignment within mind, body, and soul. Finishing with a curated Sound journey where Isabel, Sound & Soul journey will guide you through soothing sounds into a deep meditative state 🌙 An afternoon to reset your energy, elevate your frequency, and step into a new cycle with intention. Tea and refreshments included. Take home a special chakra oil blend designed to help you in your journey ✨ Sunday 14th June
⏰ 2PM – 5:30PM
📍 Mutton Lane Yoga Studio, dublin 16 Spaces are intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate and personal. If you feel called to join us for this beautiful afternoon of connection and reset, I would love to welcome you there.

Let the gong wash away the stress of the working week. Join us for this Sunday afternoon session of breath work, mantra, sound bath and meditation. Everyone welcome!

The meaning of the word zen is meditation, zazen means sitting meditation. In zazen practice we begin to know ourselves, and to go beyond the limits of our personal ego. Within our tradition zazen is referred to as shikantaza, not doing, letting go of thoughts, dropping off body and mind. This sitting meditation is the focus of our practice. Language limits our ability to communicate the true nature of zen; it is something that is better understood through practice. We are open to everyone interested in learning about zen. Intro workshop for newcomers is available at 5.30pm each Sunday. The dojo is a sacred place and it is important to be considerate of everyone. We have many people that travel to practise together once a week or once a month. So for that reason it is really essential that we all know the structure of the sitting practise (when to sit, how to do Kinhin, the different bell sounds and their meaning etc), to ensure a silent, safe and meaningful meditation. And it's also great to meet everyone before the sitting practise. And answer any questions you may have. We have zafus and zabutons (mats and cushions) for all to sit on. Chairs are available too. Comfortable clothing for sitting, black or neutral tones best. We greatly appreciate a donation of €5 to cover costs if it's possible for you. Please arrive 10min before start so 6ish (if you're not doing the intro workshop). You are very welcome to our dojo!

What makes a human being a *person*? Is it our bodies, our souls, our consciousness — or something more?

If you'd like to receive primer material on the talk and be informed about future events by email, you can also register here: https://forms.gle/QaGzqky6V7K6Ve6f6

Do you understand French but struggle to speak naturally when it’s time to respond? Join a relaxed **French conversation group** where we use a **real conversation between 2 native speakers** as a way to practise speaking French in a natural and structured way. This is not a traditional lesson. It’s a guided conversation space where you **practise speaking** through **real-life content**. \#\# 📰 This session’s topic : an **authentic French conversation** between 2 native speakers expressing their opinion about a movie. In this session, we will work with a short clip of Tow french **Youtubers discussing a movie**🎬. \#\# 🎥 BEFORE THE SESSION Before the meetup, you will watch a short French vidéo clip from Youtube. This video will give you the key vocabulary and context so you feel more comfortable speaking during the session. You will also receive a few simple comprehension questions to help you prepare your ideas. \#\# 💬 DURING THE MEETUP \(ONLINE\) We will use this content as a starting point for discussion and speaking practice. You will be guided through conversation questions to help you : * Give your opinion about a film or video. * Nuance your opinion (using expressions like a bit, rather, quite, not really…). * Compare or revise a previous judgement. * Justify your opinion by giving reasons. * Give a rating and explain your choice. You don’t need perfect French — the goal is to speak and build confidence. \#\# 🗣️ ACTIVITY FORMAT The session will include : * group discussion based on the video * guided speaking questions * interactive conversation practice * a final speaking activity / role-play based on the scenario * \#\# 🎯 WHAT YOU WILL IMPROVE By the end of the session, you will have practised how to: * speak more spontaneously in French * understand and react to real French content * build confidence when expressing ideas * move from “I understand” to “I can respond” \#\# 🌿 ATMOSPHERE This is a supportive, low-pressure environment. Mistakes are welcome and part of the learning process. The goal is communication, not perfection. \#\# 👥 LEVEL Intermediate French learners (you should already understand basic French and be able to form simple sentences). \#\# ⭐ FREE EVENT – FEEDBACK APPRECIATED This is a free session, and your feedback is very important for me as I build these conversation groups. At the end of the meetup, I’ll kindly ask participants to leave a short review about their experience — it really helps others decide whether to join future sessions. \#\# 📩 Feel free to join or message me if you have any questions

Feeling down? Sometimes depressed? Can't focus? Negativity & stress? Recent losses? Creativity in career and personal life hindered by mental blocks? Sometimes we never fully recover from traumatic experiences. Whether it was yesterday, last week or a year ago, traumatic experiences - a loss of a loved one, losing a job, a breakup - can leave you scarred. You talk about it and feel a little better, but it never goes away. After you hang up the phone, it's still there; the sadness, the cloud, the over-thinking, the worry, the guilt. You try to focus, but you're blocked. You try to look forward into new experiences, new relationships but a cloud is hanging over you, casting a shadow on what you once considered a bright, cheerful future. What happened to your courage? Your strength of character? You're 'why not' attitude? Whoever said 'time heals' must have had a special time machine, because after weeks, months, years, you're wondering - when exactly does that kick in? Sometimes it seems like drinking or drugs are the way to go. But they wear off, and now the problem is still there with added side effects from the drugs. At this free local Meetup event we will talk about: * What causes grief, anxiety and depression to become chronic. * Is it possible to regain your joy and happiness even after traumatic experiences? * How to break away from negativity and focus on the future * What are the steps to take to get control of your mind and your emotions? Learn about a safe, gentle, do-it-yourself counseling that can be done in the comfort of your own home. Let's explore safe, effective solutions for healing from traumatic experiences. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center.

Main Library, Meeting Room 2B What does it mean to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world? In this gathering, we'll continue our series on the Sermon on the Mount from a mystical perspective. Together we’ll explore Matthew 5:13–16, looking not only to the passage as moral instruction, but also to the deeper transformation of consciousness that Jesus invites. Together we'll reflect on how spiritual awakening changes the way we see ourselves, others, and the world around us. Libera Animae is an interfaith community focused on inner growth, creativity, and authentic connection. All backgrounds are welcome.
