### 🔓 UNLOCK THE POWER OF EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION 🗣️ “I know what I should say, but it doesn't come out right.” “I want to fix my relationship, but I don't know where to start.” “When the time comes, I don't know what to say.” “I have so many ideas, but I'm too afraid to share them.” In every aspect of life—whether in relationships, family dynamics, business, or the workplace—**communication is the key** 🔑 Without it, progress is impossible. But with effective communication, the doors to success swing wide open. Learn the secrets of how to communicate to anyone, anywhere—whether you’re speaking to a small group, addressing a large audience, or having a one-on-one conversation. ## 🌟 THE POWER OF EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION Poor communication is often overlooked as the root of problems in relationships, confidence, and work ability. In this workshop, we’ll cover the **formula of communication** and how to use it to improve every aspect of your life. ### ✅ Effective communication can handle: * Shyness and introversion * Business relationships and efficiency * Marriages and romantic relationships * Self-confidence and self-esteem * Everyday interactions This is not just a lecture where you sit quietly and listen - It’s **interactive and LIVE** so you can ask questions at any time and start practicing your newfound skills right away. ### 📅 **20 May 2026 – 7:00 PM** 📍 Church of Scientology & Community Centre of Dublin, Firhouse Road, Dublin D24 CX39

***Mountain Skills for Only €120 / course*** Ever wanted to learn the skills you need to become a competent navigator in the Irish mountains, the UK, the Alps or beyond! As a fully qualified mountain guide and course provider for Mountaineering Ireland and the UK, I run Mountain Skills which is a nationally accredited course and is delivered in an upland environment. Hiking in Ireland can be challenging not only because of its wilderness, but the island has very little sign posted hiking trails in the mountains or hills. In addition to this, as being an island in the Atlantic we experience the forces of nature; storms and weather events. In other words, Ireland is probably the best place in Europe to learn a new outdoor skill like Mountain Skills. The aim of this course is to help you learn the skills you need to get out hiking in the hills and mountains independently, safely and responsibly. You will learn how to navigate with confidence by any type of weather conditions. A Mountain Skills course is run over 2 days in an upland environment and covers: Map reading, map description, map scale, contour lines, land and ground features, navigation legs, simple navigation techniques, setting the map, the 5 D, estimation of direction & destination, grid reference, mountain hazards, hypothermia, mountain environment, timing, pacing, route planning, route card, emergency procedures, personal equipment, safe movement skills, river crossing and much more… Some level of fitness is essential in taking part in this course. Each course (MS1 / MS2) is a 20 hour syllabus which includes indoor and outdoor sessions and night navigation (MS2) **A course includes:** Maps and compass provided, tea breaks, course notes, 3 route cards, a free hiking day practice as part of a weekend. **For Only €100 for under 18 and students and €120 for adults.** Accommodations can be provided Her are few additionnal dates: Jan 24-25 MS2 Glenmalure, Co.Wicklow Feb 11-12 MS1 Comeragh, Co.Waterford March 21-22 Glenmalure, Co.

Get over the mid week slump and come down to meet some new faces and relax. We try and go to a different bar every week and you can join us anytime after 18:30. **How to find the group?** \*We have an area reserved just for us so if you are new and unsure please ask any of the bar staff for the area reserved under the organisers name or if completely lost on the night please contact the event host and they'll come and find you. **How does it work?** \*After finding the group either the organiser will approach you and ask if you are looking for the meetup or you can just ask anyone "Is this the meetup?" and normally that is a great conversation opener to join the group. After that it's up to you what you make of the event. That is pretty much it. Easy right? We normally encourage people to stand as it's much easier to mingle that way. **Nervous about coming to the event?** \*While it's quite intimidating meeting a bunch of strangers from the internet we are a very welcoming group. We normally look out for new people and remember that everyone in the group has been new in the group at one point. If are you'd like extra help just contact the event host on the night. **Interested in helping out?** \*Let me (Éamonn) know as it would be greatly appreciated. **Something happened?** \*Please report it to the organiser as we cannot do anything to prevent it from happening again if we don't know about it. Even if it's something small please let the organiser know as they are probably unaware. We aim to have the location up by Monday afternoon before the event. The bars we go to are all based in the city centre. **See you on Wednesday!**
