Welcome Book Lovers! Join our Meet Up Group to find like-minded book readers! This event is for everybody interested in listening or sharing new book content or comment on it. You are welcome just to come for inspiration. You definitely don't need to read books at the moment. It is a gathering for everybody to find like-minded people interested in learning something new. :) Feel free to bring your own book with you. The event will take place at the volunteer organisation MUT. It is an organisation to supports humans, animals and the environment especially in Vienna. I am happy to host it there. MUT or the Social Book Club look forward to some donation to cover the cost of this event. If you would like to help, please bring some cash with you. This is the address: Rechte Wienzeile 37, 1040 Wien Walk until the end of the main entrance hall. At the end of the hallway you find a big green gate with a sign of the Social Book Club. Please give your best to be on time so that we can have a nice introduction round together. If you can't attend anymore please cancel the event to give someone else the space to come. :) Check out the Social Book Club Website for more content: https://socialbookclub.de/ Looking forward to seeing you there! :)

Reserve your place in our small, committed group – **max. 10 participants:** [click here to book your spot.](https://playfight.my-power.at/chooseyourinvestment/) **✨INFO & CONTACT✨** [contact@my-power.at,](http://contact@my-power.at,/) +43 68110779089 (Marco) **✨ IS THIS YOU? ✨** You keep **getting into the same arguments** with the people you love, again and again. You **hide** how you really feel, and it’s exhausting. You know there’s more inside you — more joy, more life — but you **hold it back.** And you **worry** that nothing will ever change. Discover how you can **stop surviving and start thriving.** You can learn to: * **Welcome all parts of you** * Respond to life in a thoughtful and **intentional way** * Let your **joy, creativity and talents** shine without shame and be appreciated by others. **Do you need this?** [Click here to book your spot.](https://playfight.my-power.at/chooseyourinvestment/) ✨**A DAY AT OUR IMMERSION**✨ Imagine waking up to the warm scent of wood. A fresh organic breakfast is waiting. You are not alone: you’re part of a small, committed group, who is learning to meet life with honesty and care. We gather in a circle. You arrive in your body, breathe, and let the nervous system soften. On the mats you meet yourself and others through Playfight, not to win but to listen. You remember what your body needs. Emotions become a resource, not a burden. You learn to meet your shadow with self-love, and your light as a gift to share. This is what we offer. **Do you want to be part?** [Click here to book your spot.](https://playfight.my-power.at/chooseyourinvestment/) **✨WELCOME HOME TO YOURSELF✨** We all have parts of ourselves we’d rather hide. Our fears, anger, shame – but also our brilliance, joy, and creativity. This creates well-known inner conflicts. What we repress doesn’t disappear: it shows up in our behaviours, relationships, and how we limit ourselves. * **The shadow side** is made of the parts of ourselves we don’t want to admit or even notice. When ignored, it rules us. When integrated, it becomes a source of strength. * **The light shadow** is the brilliance we repress because it feels “too much” – our radiance, creativity, vitality. By hiding it, we make ourselves smaller. In Playfight, we meet both our wounds and our strengths. We learn to stop fighting ourselves. Meet your shadow *and* your hidden light. Allow integration to happen and balance to emerge. **It’s time to feel *whole* again.** **Welcome all parts of you back home.** Facing your shadow doesn’t make you darker: it allows you to free your inner light. When you face what you’ve been avoiding, you can discover the strength, clarity, and balance that comes from integration. **Are you ready to meet yourself?** [Click here to book your spot.](https://playfight.my-power.at/chooseyourinvestment/) **✨THE JOURNEY WE DESIGNED FOR YOU – *Group Support & Individual Focus*✨** This immersion offers you **group exploration** and **personal coaching**: **– Playfight** – Step into an embodied space where you can meet your shadow and your light through direct, physical experience. **– Shadow/light work** – Go beyond words as you face the parts you usually hide, embrace your strengths, and discover your brilliance waiting to shine. **– Individual “Expand Your Light” Coaching Session** – Expand your experience through a personal session tailored to you – you can choose to have it before, during, or after the event, based on availability. Use it to prepare, find your focus or integrate – bring your insights into your daily life. **– Relational and embodied exercises** – You’ll explore honest, real connection with others, uncover hidden patterns, and gently cultivate self-love. 💡 *You don’t need any experience. Just curiosity, a willingness to play, and the courage to be real.* **Questions?** Talk to us: [contact@my-power.at](mailto:contact@my-power.at) **Are you ready to start this journey?** [Click here to book your spot.](https://playfight.my-power.at/chooseyourinvestment/) **✨SCHEDULE✨** **Arrival:** Jan 2, 17:00 **Opening Session:** Jan 2, 20:00 **Closing:** Jan 5, 17:00 **Daily activities:** 09:30 – 18:30 (with breaks) **Language:** English (basic) *Your presence supports group trust and allows deeper processes to unfold, while still leaving space for rest and self-care.

The venue offers: – **single rooms:** €38 per night + optional bedding and tourist tax – **double rooms:** €28 + optional bedding and tourist tax You can select your preferred room type during registration, subject to availability. **✨WE CREATE A SAFER SPACE TOGETHER✨** **To support clarity, honesty, and depth, this is a sober space:** – No alcohol or perception-altering substances – You’re invited – but not forced – to go without caffeine and nicotine, to reconnect with your body’s natural rhythm – We create this space together – through presence, care, and mutual trust. We mostly work in a circle as equals, learning to navigate moments of collective uncertainty with curiosity, and appreciating one another as mirrors for our patterns, shadows, and light. **✨ YOUR FACILITATION TEAM ✨** Hi, I’m **Marco Moriggi**, a Playfight facilitator and Lebens- und Sozialberater (Life Coach) in training. In my workshops, **vulnerability and strength go hand in hand**. Body-based connection goes beyond words. Self-responsibility is a pillar for community support. And playing together becomes a meaningful way to discover something new about yourself. I would love helping you to get in touch with your emotions and transform your life. I host this Immersion with **Fabio Bisotti** – who is a Playfight Trainer Practitioner, somatic trainer, trauma-informed practitioner, and systemic constellations coach. We combine years of group facilitation to offer a clear, supportive container where you can meet challenges, build trust, and deepen body & emotional awareness. Got any questions?

Through mindful physical play and non-violent fighting, you reconnect with your inner child and discover your inner strength – instinct, boundaries, and wild side. You re-learn to listen to your body’s intelligence, and touch becomes again natural, innocent, and respectful – free from sexuality or romance. Whether you feel playful or unsure, confident or curious: all of you is welcome here. Our circles are held with care in a trauma-informed way. **Do you want to try it?** [Click here to book your spot.](https://playfight.my-power.at/chooseyourinvestment/) **✨MORE THAN PLAY: A TOOL FOR PERSONAL GROWTH✨** In a Playfight circle, fully engaged in movement and action, you can **explore more of who you are**. Playfight becomes a mirror that reveals what words alone sometimes can’t reach – integrating body, emotions, and mind. What begins as play soon becomes a doorway to growth, empowerment, and real connection – with yourself, with others, and with life. Playfight helps you l**et go of old habits and practice new skills for everyday life.** In play, your body and mind wake up, open, and learn. **Step beyond your comfort zone** and into the sweet spot where growth begins. No experience needed – just a willingness to show up authentically. Spots are limited to 10 participants. Reserve yours today. **Are you ready to playfight with your shadow and free your light?** [Click here to book your spot.](https://playfight.my-power.at/chooseyourinvestment/) Info: [contact@my-power.at](mailto:contact@my-power.at) See you on the playfight mats! ### **✨ STAY CONNECTED ✨** * **[Website & Newsletter](https://playfight.my-power.at/)** * **[Signal Group](https://signal.group/#CjQKIDKi-fEAn-mYs4BItlN8UZksyf0CGhZDZtXVoMwMi_t0EhByoQkGCYMY-S-DynQ4qQjn)** * **[Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/marco_my_power/)**

Things to know before playing: Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls; We play Friday Night Special Football (outdoor only) . We play 90 minutes (kick off is at 18:30, and we meet at least 15 minutes before for a warm up phase). Post-Corona football matches are most likely between 14-16 and 28-32 players. If you would like to join please bring artificial turf shoes (like the ones for indoor turf) and shin pads (not mandatory but definitely recommendable). All I ask is that you come with a good mood, be respectful to everyone, and pay online using the link below. [Tuesday Night via FOOTxp football website](https://footballexperiences.net/kickaball/p/tuesdaynightfootball/) **Other methods for payments.** **Erste Bank Transfer**: **Sorin-Florian Brici** **AT27 2011 1829 5564 7001** **\*[Revolut](https://revolut.me/brici)** \- Recommended\! **\* [Wise](https://wise.com/pay/me/sorinb256)** \- Also recommended\! **\*[Paypal](https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/sorinSocial/)** \- Please use non\-Commercial product We play light: no sliding, hard tackling, fighting, screaming, & hopefully no injuries. We need to respect current regulations in Vienna, Austria. The main priorities are to have fun and being safe. The drinks are relatively free after the game in the local pub, served to those who have shown fantastic football fair-play skills. We will confirm the location, the pitches, and the dressing room numbers via our dedicated Football WhatsApp group/s. Keep an eye out for the group messages. See you all soon. Sorin SMS/ WhatsApp +43 6764276984 (please ask to be added to our football groups). We will probably need to confirm your presence if you are coming for the first or second time.

If someone is talking bad, complaining, insulting someone, fouling on purpose or committing the usual football shenanigans, please let the organizers know. Measures will be taken, we assure you. Any misbehavior on your part, such as responding in an obscene way, fighting, or leaving the pitch is not a practical and diplomatic way of resolving the issues (it tends to create more tension and cause more problems). Let’s be respectful and mature and try to enjoy the game we all love. That’s why we’re all here. Get to know people from all over the world and have fun! Thank you. Sorin

Hi Running fellows, Whether you’re a walker, new to running, a semi-pro, a marathonist or a sprint star - if you want to start your weekend in an active way and enjoy the outdoors in lovely surroundings with a fun, international and multilingual group of people, you are welcome to join us! Every Saturday at 9:30 am, we meet, we run, in the magnificent Schönbrunn park, and then we go for breakfast. Want to discuss politics or the best recipes for banana pancakes? Not a problem. Not feeling social? Tune out with your earbuds - we can talk over breakfast. We are casual. You can be too. What to expect: Start by meeting Adrian, Ali, Liz, Paul and Sonia on-time at 9:30am outside the Schönbrunn U-Bahn stop (exit Grünbergstraße). (Coordinates: 48.1858130, 16.3200640) From there, we walk to the side park entrance where the “running” part begins. The important thing is that you run at your own pace. Typically, small groups of people will run at the same pace as you, so you never have to walk/run alone :) We finish one hour later, at about 10:40am, reconvening just inside the Hietzinger Tor exit. (Coordinates: 48.1858825, 16.3032647). From there, we’re off to breakfast! Breakfast Details: Anker bakery opposite the U4 Hietzing station and depending on the weather, grab something for a picnic in Schönbrunn park, or hang out in the bakery. If you missed us earlier, you can always go there around 10:45. We are a fun group of runners who don’t take things too seriously. We meet, chat, RUN, stretch, chat, EAT and we hang out over a beer every now and then. It's that easy. Please join us for breakfast after the run! The more the merrier. Typically we are 10-30 people, as not everyone who comes signs up on meetup. Important disclaimer: Please only run as much as you feel you can, considering the temperature, weather conditions, your own fitness etc... run and walk at your own pace as the organizers do not assume any liability for any injuries or health issues. Sonia, Adrian, Ali, Paul and Liz

**The idea for this group is to build a community where men can gather together and build connections & learn and grow from each other.** How we start each meeting is by each of us checking in with our "roses and thorns" aka what are the good things and the bad things going on in your life recently? Then we will go into a topic discussion. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS** \*\*THERE WILL BE A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY FOR NO-SHOWS. IF YOU RSVP TO A MEETING AND FAIL TO SHOW UP WITHOUT NOTICE, YOU'LL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP. THIS IS TO PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY OF THE GROUP\*\* 1. Confidentiality - EVERYTHING that is shared NEVER leaves this space so that this space remains safe and sacred. There is a zero tolerance policy for this. If a man is in violation of this, they will be permanently removed from the group. 2. Non-Judgement - we respect and honor every man’s truth so that we may receive the same from others. While we may not agree on everything, we commit to respecting every man’s perspectives and engaging in honorable discussion with one another. 3. Be committed - honor your commitment to this group and to yourself. If you attend a meeting, please commit yourself fully to the meeting. Also be committed to your own journey. When we fail, we own it & clean it up. 4. Speak from the heart - this is NOT a space to “look good”, have the “right” answers, and have it all together. Relax and know you are not alone. Be exactly who you are within the safety of this space. 5. Be supportive - This means always willing to provide encouragement to your fellow men, encourage action and momentum in each other’s lives.. Be willing to challenge each other. Be willing to hold each other accountable. 6. Participation - what you receive from this community will be a reflection of what you put into it. Period. We ask that you share your perspectives, reflect on others, and give/receive support when and where it’s needed.

Our January program is privileged to have Kristen Tregar as our speaker. Ms. Tregar is the co-author with John de Lancie (the actor who portrayed the character Q on Star Trek next generation) of a radio play depicting the events surrounding the Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District trial. The trial decided the issue of some of the Dover school district board members attempting to insert creationism disguised as "intelligent design" into the 9th grade biology curriculum. She will discuss the trial and the process of writing the play. (Bob Leonhard has seen the play and it is riveting and tense). Ms. Tregar's bio is below: Kristen Tregar is a dramaturg, director, playwright, and theatre teacher. She earned her Ph.D. in Drama and Theatre from the UC San Diego and UC Irvine joint program. In addition, she has a MS in Forensic Science from City University of New York- John Jay College of Criminal Justice and a MA in Educational Theatre from New York University- Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development. In 2013, in collaboration with Irish colleagues, she founded *The Ireland Project*, an intercontinental devised theatre work with high school students in New York and Tallaght, Ireland. Her original short story "Far From Here" was recently published in *Stay Awhile Longer: More Scenes From Temecula Valley*. She has two rescued dogs (Kira and Harry) and she rides, competes, and foxhunts with her horses, Andromache and Baker Street Irregular. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.

We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Sunday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at noon on Sundays. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 12:00 - quick intros. 12:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 1:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 1-1:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible. See you at The Café on Sunday!
