🌿 **Imagine finishing a peaceful walk in nature… feeling lighter, clearer, and deeply connected to yourself again.** If something inside you is asking for space, clarity, or an emotional reset, this session may be exactly what you need. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from your inner calm, this Nature Coaching Session offers a gentle space to pause and realign. This is a **1:1 guided coaching walk in nature**, designed to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and hear your inner voice again. Nature has a powerful way of softening the mind and opening deeper awareness. During our walk, you may experience: • releasing built-up stress • quieting the mental noise • moving from overthinking into embodied presence • accessing new perspectives and insights • feeling grounded, supported, and more like yourself again ***You don’t need to prepare anything, just come as you are.*** Depending on what is alive for you, we may explore topics such as: • finding clarity around a personal or emotional situation • reconnecting with your inner voice and intuition • navigating life transitions or uncertainty • reducing overwhelm or anxiety • identifying and shifting limiting beliefs • cultivating deeper presence, self-trust, and inner peace This is a **safe, compassionate space** where you can speak openly, reflect, and reconnect with what truly matters to you. ### How the session works 🌿 We meet in a beautiful natural location in **Zurich Seebach** (exact spot shared after booking). 🌿 The session lasts around **60 minutes**. 🌿 We walk at a relaxed pace — it’s not about distance, but about **presence and connection.** 🌿 During the walk you’ll receive gentle guidance, reflective questions, grounding practices, and intuitive coaching support. 🌿 **This session is offered on a donation basis.** You’re invited to contribute an amount that feels aligned for you, based on the value you receive and what you’re able to give. ***Payment can be made after the session (cash or Twint).***

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)

Weitere Daten für Filmabende: Immer am letzten Samstag des Monats (ausser Juli und Dezember) – zum Eintragen in die Agenda 27\. Juni 29\. August 26\. September 31\. Oktober 28\. November 19\. Dezember Handlung: Der Violinist François Gautier erlebt Genugtuung, wenn er bis zum Äussersten sparsam sein kann und minimiert dabei seinen ökologischen Fussabdruck, ohne Auto, ohne Strom, ohne Warmwasser, ohne Ö, ohne Kleider und anderem Konsum. Er erlebte in den ersten Lebensjahren, dass die Mutter ständig mit dem Vater wegen dessen Ausgaben heftig stritt. Die Mutter versuchte den Sohn dazu zu erziehen, nicht wie der Vater zu werden. Francois schloss unbewusst daraus, der Mutter genügen zu müssen. Er musste seinen unverstandenen Lebenssinn darin finden, kein Geld auszugeben. Scheint es ihm nicht zu gelingen, kommt er in grösste Not. Diese klare Zielrichtung durchdringt sein gesamtes Fühlen, Denken und Handeln - mit allen Nebenwirkungen auf seine Beziehungen zu anderen Menschen. So muss er andere ständig vor den Kopf stossen, indem er Kleinigkeiten entwendet, anderen keine Freude machen kann, wenn es etwas kostet oder seinen Beitrag in der Eigentümerversammlung bezahlen sollte. So muss er sich isolieren. Er wird für andere zu einem unsympathischen Menschen. Die Liebe zu der Cellistin Valerie und das plötzliche Auftauchen einer 16-jährigen Tochter bringt die Einschränkungen seiner Lebenslinie besonders deutlich zum Ausdruck. Er wird darauf humorvoll darauf gestossen, dass eine Gefühlswandlung bei ihm ansteht. Die Unterstellung, dass er ein guter Mensch ist, hilft ihm dabei, nach und nach Freude daran zu entwickeln, für andere Menschen Interesse entwickeln zu können, zu helfen und darin Genugtuung und Beziehung zu anderen Menschen zu erleben. So kann er sowohl symbolhaft mit seinen Nachbarn eine gute Verbindung aufbauen, seiner Tochter helfen und ebenso die Liebe von Valerie erwidern und mit ihr ein gemeinsames Leben aufbauen.

Summer Session, Thursdays, June 4 - July 23, 2026, from 6 to 8:30pm ET **NAMI Family-to-Family** is a free, eight-week program for family members, caregivers, and partners of individuals living with mental illness. NAMI Family-to-Family provides information about anxiety, depressive disorders, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and other mental health conditions. Other topics covered include communication, problem solving, treatment, and recovery.

On a list of "My Favorite Things", few people would put a "break up" in their top ten. More often, these words evoke feelings of shame, embarrassment, poor choices, and bad or sad endings. Before the new and beautiful can be built, the old, broken, and unnecessary must be cleared away. This process can be painful, but it is good, needful, and can produce wonderful results when done wisely and well. How does one break free from anxiety, comparison, or shame? Christian Bevere points people to the freedom God desires for His children, as well as giving practical ideas on how to shed both unhealthy baggage and the lies that seek to leave us anchored to past failure. Drawing from the Bible, ***Break Up With What Broke You*** clearly shows that what Satan would seek to use for evil, God uses for good and to accomplish His purposes. Join us **Tuesday, June 2, 2026, at 6:30 pm**, when we gather at **True Food Kitchen, Easton Town Center, Columbus**. We'd love to see you there!
