Facilitation

\>\>\> All Info and registration here: https://interbeing\.ch/living\-diversity/ **– *Understand our differences and connect in conflict* –** In this course, we explore together how we can be with each other in our differences. We learn how to communicate more effectively with our loved ones, colleagues and even with people who share opposite opinions. * How can I feel understood, even when you see things differently? * How can I connect with people who think, feel, or live differently from me? * How to navigate conflict without losing myself or the other? * How to meet diversity with curiosity instead of fear? Before connecting with others, we get to know ourselves: Find out what is behind our triggers and judgments, identify our feelings and needs. This inner clarity strengthens our self empowerment and the ability to meet others on eye level instead of betraying ourself, giving up our wishes, or dominating the conversation. We learn to better understand each other in our differences and invite cooperation. We explore movements beyond polarizing debates, while staying true to ourselves, so we can belong a bit more rather than merely fit in. ## We research how to: * Listen more deeply to ourself and gain inner clarity about our needs and what really matters to us * Realise when we need self care before connecting with others * Find inner clarity when we’re triggered * Stand honestly for our needs, express our wishes and invite cooperation * Grow capacity in understanding other viewpoints * See the beautiful messages behind our judgments and the judgments of others * Be in conflict with care and connection **Facilitation Style:** During each session, we offer theoretical input, live demonstrations, group discussions, and two to three guided exercises. We share insights and tips inspired by Nonviolent Communication (NVC) by [Yoram Mosenzon](https://www.connecting2life.net/trainer/yoram-mosenzon/) and Marshall Rosenberg. But foremost we invite you to find your own way. To develop your own communication style with your inner parts and your fellow humans. Part of the sessions will be shaped by the wishes and interests of the group. We might offer themed evenings that dive deeper into specific areas of diversity where staying connected can be difficult (such as race, gender, sexual orientation, neurodivergence, mental health, illness and disability, diet, relationship styles, cultural background, political views, and our ways of relating to money and consumption,…) or explore more depth some conflict situation. You’re warmly invited to bring your personal situations so we can work with concrete, lived experiences. \>\>\>\>\>\>\> All Info and registration here: https://interbeing\.ch/living\-diversity/

A dedicated weekly space for men who want to ground themselves, reconnect with purpose, and strengthen their presence in order to show up in integrity in all areas of life. **Why this matters:** Modern life pulls men in many directions: work, family, community, and responsibilities. Meditation offers a powerful way to pause, regroup, gain clarity and clear intention with what truly matters. **Benefits include:** * Greater emotional balance and stress reduction * Improved focus and clarity * A stronger sense of inner direction and purpose * More patience and presence with family and loved ones * Enhanced resilience in challenging situations * The ability to respond rather than react * A deeper connection to self, values, and mission **Why “questioning the mind” is essential:** Men often carry silent expectations: to be strong, dependable, unshaken. But real strength comes from awareness, not suppression. Meditation creates space to question the automatic patterns of the mind: * *Is this belief truly mine?* * *Why do I react this way?* * *What do I actually want for my life and the people I love?* This practice helps men break out of old conditioning, step into authenticity, and show up with integrity for themselves, their families, and their communities. **About your facilitator:** This space is held by Anna, healer, transformation coach, and founder of *The Powerful Self*. She has guided this work for years, blending ancient shamanic wisdom with modern spiritual psychology to support deep transformation. Anna is deeply committed to helping men live lives of long-term fulfillment, purpose, and peace. She is here to walk alongside you as you grow into your fullest, most grounded self. **When:** Tuesdays 20:30-21:00 **Where:** Via zoom **Contribution:** Free **Registration is required.** Secure your spot and commit to your inner work. No prior experience needed. If you have any questions, reach out to Anna at [info@thepowerfulself.me](mailto:info@thepowerfulself.me)

Klangschalen werden seit Jahrhunderten in fernöstlichen Traditionen in spirituellen Praktiken und Ritualen verwendet. In der Klangtherapie werden Klangschalen und andere archaische Instrumente auch zu Heilungszwecken eingesetzt, da unser eigenes Energiefeld mit der Schwingung der Klangschalen in Resonanz geht und damit wieder in Balance gebracht werden kann.

„Echte Sicherheit entsteht nicht durch die Abwesenheit von Triggern, sondern durch die Fähigkeit, mit ihnen umzugehen.“ Häufig warten wir in intimen Situationen darauf, dass ein Raum „sicher genug“ ist, um uns zu öffnen. In diesem Workshop drehen wir die Perspektive um: Sicherheit ist kein passiver Zustand, sondern eine aktive, somatische Handlung. Wir laden dich ein, die Loyalität zu deinem eigenen Körper über das Ziel einer „perfekten“ Begegnung zu stellen. **Die Schwerpunkte von Modul 1:** Somatic Consent: Lerne, die Stimme deines Körpers als Navigationskompass zu nutzen. Wo sagst du „Ja“, um zu gefallen, obwohl dein System Schutz braucht? Containment & Intensität: Wie viel Lust, Scham oder Discomfort kannst du halten, ohne zu dissoziieren? Die 5%-Bedürfnis-Regel: Wir üben, Impulse in winzigen Dosen zu erfahren, damit dein Nervensystem „mitkommen“ kann, ohne geflutet zu werden. **Was dich erwartet:** Ein zweitägiger Forschungsraum mit Einzel- und Partnerübungen. Wir nutzen radikale Verlangsamung, um die Kapazität für dein eigenes Erleben zu erweitern. Als sex-positiver Lernraum sind Nacktheit und Berührung willkommen, aber immer basierend auf radikaler Freiwilligkeit. Datum: 9. – 10. Mai 2026 Zeit: Sa 10:00–20:00 | So 10:00–18:00 Ort: Oberdorfstrasse, Zürich Leitung: Michèle (Intuitive Wisdom) & Jasmin (Onda+Mare) Preis: 420 CHF (Early Bird 380 CHF bis 5. April) Voraussetzung: Offen für alle (Anfänger & Fortgeschrittene). **Wichtige Infos für die Events:** Radikale Freiwilligkeit: Du entscheidest in jedem Moment über dein Level an Beteiligung. Aktives Zuschauen oder Pausen sind jederzeit willkommen. Anmeldung: Die Zusage hier auf Meetup dient der Vernetzung. Eine verbindliche Anmeldung erfolgt über michele-brand.ch bzw. Onda+Mare. Bist du bereit, deine Intimität aus der Tiefe deines Körpers heraus neu zu definieren? Wir freuen uns auf dich!

Die CSS hat 2024 einen weiteren grossen Schritt auf ihrer Reise zur Business Agilität unternommen: Mit der Einführung von SAFe, sechs Agile Release Trains, einem agilen Portfolio sowie der Anpassung von Organisation, Budget und Strategie. Obwohl Scrum bereits seit 2014 in der Softwareentwicklung verankert ist, bedeutete dieser Wandel einen tiefgreifenden organisatorischen und kulturellen Schritt. In dieser Session berichtet ein Mitglied des Transformationsteams, was in den letzten zwei Jahren im agilen Umfeld der CSS mit rund 500 Mitarbeitenden geschehen ist. Themen wie agile Führung, Zusammenspiel zwischen Team, ART und Portfolio, Kommunikation, Kulturwandel und Mindset-Change stehen dabei im Mittelpunkt. Lass dich auf die Reise mitnehmen — welche Herausforderungen haben wir gemeistert, wo sind wir gescheitert und welche Themen uns weiterhin beschäftigen. Tauche mit Martin Ineichen in diese spannende Transformation ein. Ich freue mich auf viele Interessierte, einen offenen Austausch, viele Fragen und eine lebendige Diskussionen. ✱✱✱ Martin Ineichen, ist seit 12 Jahren im agilen Umfeld bei der CSS unterwegs. War mit Herzblut SM, konnte dies auch nie ganz ablegen. Vertritt agile Konzepte mit viel Enthusiasmus und gibt sein Wissen und seine Ansichten auch gerne weiter. Immer mit dem Ziel, ein besseres Arbeiten zu ermöglichen. Martin ist Mitorganisator des Agile Breakfast Luzern. In seiner Freizeit ist er ein Familienmensch mit einem grünen Daumen.

EXPERIENCE PHILOSOPHICAL SYNCRETISM, INNER ALCHEMY, AND GAME SPIRIT. Try a live (private) session of **Mäng (offline in Zürich or online worldwide)**, a powerful self-exploration game that helps uncover hidden mental scripts and rewire the way you think, feel and act. It is a tool for a really **profound change** that follows the four stages of inner alchemy. A modernized version of an ancient contemplative practice, reimagined as a transformational tool based on psychological insight, symbolic logic, and inner strategy, it is not therapy or coaching in the traditional sense. Instead, it’s an immersive deep-dive into the unconscious mind through metaphor and archetype with a game spirit. 💡 **How it works:** Mäng is built on four stages of real, lasting change: 1. **Discovery** – Identify limiting beliefs and internal programs 2. **Uninstallation** – Let go of outdated patterns 3. **Design** – Create new mental strategies 4. **Integration** – Embed them into your deeper awareness You’ll be guided through this process by the **Master of Mäng**, who offers structure, questions, and insight, while you remain the one making all decisions and discoveries. 🌿 **Who is this for?** For everyone (regardless of beliefs, age, gender, etc.), but more than anyone - for those who didn't find answers or sufficient depth in pop coaching and psychology. 🕒 **Important:** This is a deep game. A full session lasts **4 hours**. Time slots are defined individually. Contact me directly to get an appointment. Price for newbies: 250 CHF

Practical AI for Power BI Developers A year ago, “agentic AI” was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective. This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly. Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.

This is an in-person meeting. Did you know that unwanted emotions like loneliness, sadness, hopelessness, anger, fear, anxiety, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not chemical imbalance in your brain due to some nebulous chemical reactions by chance. Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. For instance, let's say you are already carrying a huge load on your back, then you cannot take on much more, but, let's say something else happens to you, such as the difficulties from the Pandemic, then the resultant combined weight on you can take you over the edge, kind of like the straw that break the camel's back. When this happens, people's attention usually goes to the straw that was added, but actually the majority of the weight had come from the huge load that were already there, holding a person down and causing a person issues. So how do you remove the huge load that was already there? How do you lighten them up? Is it possible to get rid of them? That is what this meeting will be all about. Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
