We are gathering on this evening to honour Earth Day - with a special Cacao ceremony, that inlcudes sacred space & calling te elemental guardians Air, Fire, water, Earth.. and Totemic animal spirits of the UK. Once Cacao is prepared and we begin sipping, there will be drumming & chants to attune to the Earth, open our heart centres and connect to the Heart of mother Gaian (Earth Goddess in greek mythology). We'll then engage in some Eco-magic - sending protection for all wild life, safeguarding the environment, and ending wars and bringing peace! (This magic will be reinforced with magic at our World Peace day Cacao circle on 21st in September!) * **Help Build altar :** Few of the attendees can help us build altar with logs, foliage, and lights and lanterns, statues brought from home. **Cacao drinking in Tribal Cultures.** It is an old tribal practice that works gently in heartcentre and energy openings in people. It takes time to work. It's effects are subtle, and can include a good feeling of wellness, connection, love, gratitude, mindfullness, positivity. So starting with groundedness, stillness, and balance is importrant in order to feel its effects. **What we do in our Cacao Ritual** We began Cacao circles in Hampstead Heath, way back in June 2021, with Freya Witch leading them (part of our sister group \`\`London Higher Healing' ) . A new cycle began with our Earth Hour Cacao ritual in March 2025,. Our aim is to hold these in woodland, so as to get closer to the natural environments similar to where tribes would do cacao rituals. * *\*We are using Organic, Vegan, Ceremonial grade Cacao, grown by the Ashaninka Tribe in Peru\** * This Cacao circle will have all our usual ceremonial aspects - Sage incense smudging & purifying our selves and altar area, then each person adding a spoon of ritual grade Cacao to vegan-friendly milk - speaking positive intentions for eco-magic. While cacao is heating up, we drum, dance, chant, and movement around the cooker/ cacao, as we raise energy. Then Cacao shared out and drunk by each person. * Following this, a singing bowl (heart frequency) is used for each person, to allow them to work on their own heart opening; Attendeeds are then led in a short guided pathworking / Journey, and given silent time to explore their inner realms further - and allow insights & visions to appear, as well as energies to gently shift. * Sharing Circle: Once the Journey has ended, we come together to sit in a circle, have some light snacks to ground, as we share any thoughts and experiences. (sharing is optional). **\-\-\-\-PRACTICAL DETAILS \-\-\-\-\-** **What you can bring** * **What to wear** : Capes, robes, cloaks, tribal attire, masks, flower crowns. * **For ritual:** Bring Ritual charms, crystals, talismans - to put on altar; also eco-magical banners & art works to add to our Eco-magic. (only affirmations in the positive please.. ) * **Food:** Vegetarian food / snacks welcome (no meat or alcohol). Flowers & lanterns & incense. Bring Picnic for your self, and some Food & Drinks to share if possible. * **Practical** : Bring ground sheet / blanket or folding seats (for yourself). .Wrap up really warm.

Named after a Suicide song, Fast Money Music look like one of those moody, suave 90's guitar bands that used to sing about bad romance and existential sorrow. And guess what, that's kind of what they sound like too - though they also have a lot more zip (and a bit less depth) than the likes of Afghan Whigs or Tindersticks. Here are some song samples: Unfortunately: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VP2sOdy-6Vk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VP2sOdy-6Vk) There Are No Words: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jcm8aUWQf6o](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jcm8aUWQf6o) Lover Boy: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3JoKteDd-w](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3JoKteDd-w) Space Opera/Hot Melt Glue (live - and is that a sax?): [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzrPXB4kkGU](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzrPXB4kkGU) Is it just me getting [Michael Hutchence vibes](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azfG5H-pCVg)?

Circling is a present-moment relational awareness practice. We’re bringing our attention to what’s unfolding in real time, repeatedly returning to what’s happening within ourselves, between us and in the shared space of the group. We practice approaching our own experience and the experience of others with curiosity, becoming more aware of the subtleties of what is present. The emphasis is on staying in contact with your experience as it unfolds. The unfolding may be quiet and internal or it may lead to words – naming sensations, thoughts, emotions, impulses or perceptions. It might also include movement or other non-verbal expression. The idea is not to try to change what’s there, but to become more aware of what it is and how we are meeting it and relating to it in the moment. Often awareness follows expression and this is okay too. We are all swimming in the ocean of the unknown. Occasionally the whale lifts its head above the surface and we catch a glimpse – a moment of seeing something about ourselves that we hadn’t noticed before. Over time, many people find that this kind of awareness practice deepens their sense of aliveness and helps them notice patterns in how they relate to themselves and others. With ongoing practice, some people discover an increased capacity to be with themselves and others in a more conscious, grounded, flexible and responsive way – where we can experience ourselves as active participants in our lives rather than passive reactors to what is happening internally or around us. Both those new to Circling and those with more experience are very welcome. **To reserve your place, transfer £18 via my eventbrite page:** **[https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/o/robyn-wilford-29457876735](https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/o/robyn-wilford-29457876735)** Any questions, please direct message me here or email: [robyncontact365@gmail.com](http://robyncontact365@gmail.com) We’ll start at 7pm (arrive from 6.50pm) and will finish at 9pm. There will be some optional hang out time after 9pm. Opposite Elephant & Castle tube and Thameslink train station, and numerous bus routes. **Facilitation and Terms of Service** This is a facilitated group practice but not group therapy and not psychotherapy. Because of my NARM background and own personal journey, I value personal choice, agency and emergent self-awareness. Participants are encouraged to stay connected to their own pace and to keep checking in with themselves throughout the practice – noticing what feels supportive, what feels like too much, and what they may need in any moment. There’s no expectation to be vulnerable or to share anything that feels too personal or emotional and you are always welcome to speak, remain silent, pause, step back and take a break, leave or ask for what you want, including asking for support. Participants are also invited to respect one another’s pace and boundaries. The intention of my Circling leadership is to support myself and people in staying present with their experience while in relationship with others, and to develop greater awareness of how they are meeting that experience. Having said that, like solo meditation, it’s normal that we will all repeatedly lose presence and Circling can sometimes evoke strong emotions or reactions in people which can be difficult for them and challenging for others in the space to navigate. If you find the prospect of this potentially destabilising or overwhelming, or if you are currently experiencing significant emotional distress or instability in your life that might be exacerbated by this type of group environment, or if you are unsure you’ll be able to take care of yourself and ensure the practice works for you, then please contact me before registering so we can discuss further. By registering you acknowledge that you have read and agree to the above.

A WiA Collective Wisdom Exchange At the start of this year, we gathered to look back, set intentions, and imagine the next chapter. This is the follow-up. Not a check-in. Not a progress report. A small, facilitated circle to reconnect with what you said mattered — and honestly explore what’s actually happening now. Together, we’ll explore: • What you intended at the start of this year - and what that looks like three months in • What’s surprised you, supported you, or shifted • What the next chapter needs now that you know what you know If you were at our January gathering, bring whatever you made or wrote — your word, your artifact, your intention. We’ll look at it with fresh eyes. If this is your first time, you belong here too. You’ll start where we all started: with what’s true right now. Optional art materials will be available for anyone who wants to reflect creatively alongside conversation. If you brought something home from January, you’re warmly invited to bring it back. The intention is the same as always: everyone leaves feeling more clear, more connected, and a little lighter. Space is intentionally limited to keep the experience intimate. What to Expect • A small, welcoming circle (not a large meetup) • Structured conversation so everyone has space to speak • Reflection, listening, and lived experience — not advice-giving • Optional creative reflection alongside conversation • A calm, supportive environment Who This Is For Women and underrepresented folks working in or around agile, product, technology, leadership, or organizational change — especially those looking for honest conversation and community beyond frameworks and buzzwords. Good to Know • No preparation required • If you attended in January, we invite you to bring anything you created or wrote (or something that represents your intention at the start of the year) - it’s optional but invited • Participation is invitational; listening is always welcome • Creative activities are optional

Join us at Unity of Columbus for our Weekly Reiki Share, a peaceful and uplifting gathering for connection, healing, and growth. A Reiki Share is a time where Reiki practitioners and students come together to give and receive healing energy in a supportive and welcoming environment. These sessions will be moderated by Columbus Unity Reiki. Reiki is a hands-on energy healing method from Japan that first came to the United States in 1938. Since then, it has grown in popularity and is now widely practiced throughout the West. All levels are welcome, and you do not need to be a practitioner at Unity of Columbus to attend. If you are a Reiki practitioner, a Reiki student, or simply interested in becoming a Reiki student, we warmly invite you to join us. Come practice your healing techniques, learn new approaches, receive healing energy, and connect with a like-minded community in a space of relaxation, renewal, and positive energy.

**This month’s Creativity Circle is very timely. We will be making our own craft snowflakes out of paper, coffee filters, popsicle sticks, sparkles and more! Bring the snowy season inside without the wet and cold. All ages welcome, show up as you can, bring a friend or a few if you would like to! Excited to see you there! Seats Limited. Held at the Westerville Public Library Meeting Room B.**

**Caller: Richard Ades** **Band: The McKenzies** **Clinton Heights Lutheran Church** **15 Clinton Heights Ave, Columbus, OH 43202** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle.
