Reiki, as offered here, is based on **Usui Reiki Ryōhō**, the traditional Japanese system founded by Mikao Usui. It is a gentle, hands-on practice that supports relaxation, grounding, and nervous system regulation. Rather than trying to fix or change anything, Reiki offers conditions for the body and mind to rest and rebalance naturally. Sessions are held as a **contemplative practice**, with emphasis on presence, listening, and consent. People experience Reiki in different ways. This may include: * Deep relaxation * A sense of calm or warmth * Emotional settling * Or simply the experience of resting There’s nothing you need to believe, visualise, or achieve — you can simply rest and receive. Reiki sessions offered here are **not a substitute for medical or therapeutic care**. *** ### 🌱 Who this is for This session may be a good fit if you: * Feel stressed, overwhelmed, or in need of rest * Are curious about Reiki and want to try it in a gentle, grounded way * Enjoy quiet, nature-based experiences * Prefer a calm, one-on-one setting No prior experience with Reiki or meditation is needed. *** ### 💶 Booking & payment (IMPORTANT) This is a **paid Reiki session**. 👉 **Booking is completed through my website:** [https://www.hereaware.com/reiki](https://www.hereaware.com/reiki?utm_source=chatgpt.com) **Session confirmation works as follows:** * Your session is confirmed once booking is completed and: * payment is made securely via the website, **or** * payment method (**Bizum or cash on the day**) is confirmed with me via **WhatsApp** * I’ll send you a **private booking link** where you can freely choose your time slot. * Sessions are confirmed on a **first come, first served** basis once the booking is completed. **If you choose not to pay via the website, please message me on WhatsApp to confirm your booking and payment method.** If payment or confirmation has **not been completed within 5 days of booking**, the slot may be released to someone on the waitlist. ⚠️ Even if you’re marked as **“Going” on Meetup**, your session is **not confirmed** until a time slot is booked via the booking page: [https://www.hereaware.com/reiki](https://www.hereaware.com/reiki?utm_source=chatgpt.com) *** ### 🤍 Continuing sessions If you’d like to continue receiving Reiki sessions, the following option is available: * **70 €** — pack of 3 × 1-hour sessions You’re always welcome to decide in your own time. 👉 **Booking is completed through my website:** [https://www.hereaware.com/reiki](https://www.hereaware.com/reiki?utm_source=chatgpt.com) *** ### 🔁 Cancellations & no-shows * Please provide at least **24 hours’ notice** if you need to cancel or reschedule. * **Same-day cancellations or no-shows are non-refundable**, as the time is reserved specifically for you. **Rescheduling:** If you cancel with more than 24 hours’ notice, I’m happy to help you reschedule, subject to availability. **Weather or facilitator cancellation:** If a session needs to be cancelled due to weather or unforeseen circumstances on my end, you’ll be offered a **full refund or reschedule**, according to your preference. *** ### 💬 Questions?

**Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion **Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?** A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad. My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one. Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it? I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction. Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends. No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.

Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8!
