A long weekend to slow down, put pen to paper whenever you want, read by the pool – and meet like-minded women who love writing as much as you do. **Whether you're visiting or a local, this is the creative escape you need this summer.** 🏡 We are gathering in a perfect secret spot in Barcelona: far away from all the noise, but close enough to the center in case you want to get in and out on your own. Our beautiful hillside mansion features AC, pool and sauna – and nine individual rooms perfect for resting. You'll feel like you're away in nature...while being two metro stops away from all the buzz :) Here, nothing will distract you from writing! **📚 What you'll be working on?** Whether you're exploring self-discovery through journaling, crafting a memoir, creating short stories or poetry, or finally bringing that long-planned book to life, I aim to offer you a safe, nurturing space to connect with your words and creativity. Dive into cherished childhood memories, share fascinating anecdotes from your life that could inspire a captivating story, or pour your deepest emotions onto the page and witness how your perspective transforms. I believe every woman is a natural-born storyteller, and every girl's life is a compelling book waiting to be written. **Let’s uncover yours!** *What to expect:* 📝 **Journaling Workshops**: Dive deep into your emotions, memories and experiences through guided journaling sessions, unlocking the power of self-expression and introspection under the guidance of Marusha, founder of [Girls Who Write](http://www.girlswhowrite.club/), [Naked Words](https://mashamozolevskaya.com/mynakedwords) and Barcelona Journaling Festival. 📚 **Writing buffet:** try creating a memoir, a profound dialogue, a book character based on a person dear to your heart *(even if you don't have any book in the works yet!)* and explore some controversial topics in a safe, supportive community. 🌅 Sunrise SUP at Barceloneta. The most magical thing you can do in the summer in Barcelona – watch the sun rising from the horizon and waking up the city, while gently rocking on the waves. It's safe and fun! You don't even need to know how to swim. Bring your journal if you dare :) ✨ **Deep Connection to Self**: Throughout the day, immerse yourself in moments of stillness and self-discovery, cultivating a profound connection to your innermost being and fostering a sense of inner peace and alignment. We'll enjoy guided forest-bathing (sinrin-yoku) and embodiment sessions as well. 🍤 **Amazing food!** We'll be served lovely meals cooked by our private chef. The menu is Mediterranean, organic, and absolutely scrumptious! We'll take good care of you...while you write :) **Please read the full retreat description [here.](https://girlswhowrite.club/barcelona)** More info on what kind of workshops to expect, the price range, etc [www.girlswhowrite.club/barcelona](https://girlswhowrite.club/barcelona) *Barcelona residents get a special offer – please do not hesitate to message the organizer.* 🔥 Please note that there are two retreat dates available for this summer: **12-14 JUNE and 3-5 JULY.** Choose what fits your summer plans best and let us know when you'd like to come.

**Sabado 13 de Junio, de 10.30 a 14.30** Casa Bhúo, Carrer del Taulat 71, bajo 1 Barcelona Para confirmar tu participación, escríbeme al número +34 656 737 190. **No se aceptan inscripciones hechas solo a través de Meetup.** **Taller de constelaciones familiares del Espíritu: Como lograr el amor en pareja. Sanando los vínculos invisibles que condicionan la relación.** La relación de pareja es, probablemente, el espacio por excelencia de intimidad y vulnerabilidad. En el fondo, todos anhelamos compartir nuestra vida con alguien que pueda vernos de verdad y amarnos por lo que realmente somos, más allá de las máscaras, las defensas y los personajes que aprendimos a construir. Sin embargo, el amor no depende únicamente de la voluntad, de la compatibilidad o de encontrar a la persona adecuada. Desde la mirada de las Constelaciones Familiares, observamos que el éxito o las dificultades en la pareja están profundamente influenciados por factores sistémicos que permanecen ocultos a primera vista. Lealtades inconscientes, vínculos no resueltos, exclusiones, desórdenes en el sistema familiar e intrincaciones con nuestros antepasados pueden condicionar la manera en que amamos, elegimos pareja y vivimos nuestras relaciones. Con frecuencia, los conflictos que aparecen en la vida afectiva no nacen realmente en la pareja, sino que tienen sus raíces en la historia familiar. Lo que no ha sido visto, reconocido o integrado en generaciones anteriores puede seguir actuando silenciosamente en el presente, limitando nuestra capacidad para construir vínculos plenos y satisfactorios. Mirar hacia aquello que opera en el inconsciente abre la posibilidad de una comprensión más profunda. Cuando reconocemos los movimientos ocultos que actúan detrás de nuestras experiencias amorosas, puede surgir una nueva mirada, una mayor libertad interior y una oportunidad real para que el amor florezca. Este taller está dirigido tanto a quienes se encuentran actualmente en una relación de pareja como a quienes desean encontrar una persona con quien compartir el camino de la vida. También es un espacio para quienes han atravesado una separación y sienten que el vínculo aún no ha encontrado un cierre sereno y en paz. Sea cual sea tu situación actual, eres bienvenido a participar en este encuentro de exploración, comprensión y apertura al amor. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Podrás participar de dos maneras: * **Constelando tu propio tema personal.** * **Participando como representante.** * **Precio: 60 € para constelar tu tema** **20 € para representantes** **Descuentos :** Si traes a alguien al taller: \- Recibes **10 € de descuento** por cada persona que viene a constelar. \- Recibes **5 € de descuento** por cada persona que venga como representante. Los descuentos son acumulables, cuantas más personas traigas, mayor será tu descuento. 🌐 **Comunidad y contacto** 📸 Sígueme en **Instagram** @rendirse_al_amor para recibir contenido e información sobre próximos eventos: **[https://www.instagram.com/rendirse_al_amor/](https://www.instagram.com/rendirse_al_amor/)** 📲 Mándame un mensaje por **WhatsApp** al +34 656 737 190 o haz clic en el siguiente enlace para recibir información sobre próximos talleres, eventos y actividades: 👉 [https://wa.me/34656737190?text=Hola%20Valentina%2C%20me%20gustar%C3%ADa%20estar%20informado%2Fa%20de%20los%20pr%C3%B3ximos%20eventos%20y%20actividades.%20%C2%BFPodr%C3%ADas%20incluirme%20en%20tu%20lista%20de%20difusi%C3%B3n%3F](https://wa.me/34656737190?text=Hola%20Valentina%2C%20me%20gustar%C3%ADa%20estar%20informado%2Fa%20de%20los%20pr%C3%B3ximos%20eventos%20y%20actividades.%20%C2%BFPodr%C3%ADas%20incluirme%20en%20tu%20lista%20de%20difusi%C3%B3n%3F) 🤍 Estaré encantada de mantenerte informado/a de las próximas propuestas. ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨✨ Facilita Valentina Bergomi Tancredi Valentina Bergomi Tancredi es consteladora familiar del espíritu y terapeuta energética, especializada en la remoción de bloqueos emocionales, ya sean propios, ancestrales, de otras vidas o relacionados con la presencia de entidades.

A casual (but coordinated) coffee break to meet new friends, take a Zoom break, and get your AM caffeine fix. Stop by for a few minutes or stay the whole time. Bring a friend or wander in solo. Come for the coffee and company, or just bring a book to read while surrounded by other in-real-life, community-seeking humans. Come by every Friday, or just when you happen to be in town. Make it whatever you need it to be that week. It's not an \*event\* per se, but we hope these Friday meet-ups can become a fixture of the bookshop! Gathering spot will be in the downstairs area of the bookshop (near the Community Library). Coffee and tea are 1.50€ and can be purchased at the cash register upstairs. Find more info on our Instagram (@backstorybookshop) or website (www.backstorybookshop.com).

In the second half of the evening, participants can join or observe a playful, guided jam using material generated during the workshop. Participation is always optional. **What to expect** • Guided exercises using voice, text, movement, and sound • Individual and group-based prompts • A relaxed, process-driven environment with optional sharing • No prior experience required **Who it’s for** Creatives and “*non-creatives*,” students, professionals, performers, musicians, and anyone curious about creative process.

Greetings writers! Come down and join your fellow wordsmiths for one hour of uninterrupted writing time in the upper level of the Market District Supermarket in Upper Arlington. The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo.

We’ll meet on Wednesday evenings, starting the clock at 6:30, following a brief period of introductions. This is solid writing time and all inclusive. Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you. The market boasts a Starbucks, a full service bar and various affordable food options. Parking is plentiful, free Wifi is provided as well as outlets for charging your devices, though they are somewhat limited, so plan accordingly. Show up as early as you like, or stay late.

The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit. Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for all—the venue can be busy at times.

The topic for June is "Roadtrip" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!

**We are expanding our creative programming opportunities with Queer Quills, a quiet writing and sharing space. Queer Quills features some prompts, supplies and friendly faces to help get some inspiration or feedback for your writing. Hope to see you there!**
