**Let's Talk! An Open Space for Parents of Teens** **🚪 April Theme: The Slammed Door** If you have recently stared at a closed bedroom door, wondering how your once-chatty child suddenly turned into a silent roommate (or an explosive one!), you are not alone. Parenting teens is an adventure best traveled together. Join us for our monthly "Let's Talk"—an informal evening designed to give you a breathing space, honest conversation, and genuine connection with other parents who get it. **This Month's Focus: The Slammed Door** We will dive into the withdrawal, the sudden need for intense privacy, and the delicate balance between giving your teen space and staying connected. We will weave into the conversation some practical, Relational Leadership input on how to navigate this phase without taking it personally, and how to keep the lines of connection open even when the door is physically shut. **What to expect:** * **Come as you are:** It is a space to drop the mask and be real about the ups and downs of raising adolescents. All feelings and experiences are welcome here. * **Room for free flow:** While we will anchor our evening around The Slammed Door, we are always opening the floor to whatever is alive for you right now. * **Guided support:** We will be there to guide the conversation and offer expert input. There is zero pressure. We are here to support you in stepping into your role as the steady leader your teen needs.

Looking forward to our evening! ✨ **Where & When:** 📅 Thursday, 16.04.2026 ⏰ 19:00 - 20:30 📍 Sihlcity, Kalandergasse 1, 8045 Zürich (Home Hotel Lounge)

**Thursday Night Football is back!** Our decade-long tradition of playing Thursday night games continues at **Turnhalle Lind Nord** in Winterthur! Open to all skill levels, newcomers, as well as regular players. The cost will be CHF 10 per game or there is the option to pay for the whole year. The attendance is limited to 12 players, if the meetup list is full then please join the waitlist as we regularly have people dropping out the day of the event. **Parking** There is no parking at Lind Nord, however there is paid parking at Museumplatz 3 or Kreuzstrasse 13, both of which are about 2 min walking distance **No-shows** We ask everyone to respect others who wish to play, and that means dropping out if you know that you won't play. You are responsible for keeping your RSVP up-to-date, not the organisers. Our no-show rules: * -No-shows will pay the regular fee for that game (even if they already paid for the season) plus the fees for those that were on the waitlist (so x times the regular fee). This way, the people in the waitlist will play a future game for free, as a small consolation present. * -No-shows might loose their place to those in the waitlist the next time they sign up when there is a waitlist * -No-show cutoff time is 2 hours before event start, to give others enough time to plan in advance. So even if you cancel after 18:30, if someone could not play because of you, you are still considered a no-show **IMPORTANT:** If its your first time please also send me a message for more details. If I do not hear from you to confirm this, you might be taken off the confirmed list to make room for regulars & prevent no-shows. If you are coming and using the changing facilities please arrive in time to do so. Cheers, Ömür

If it’s rainy, we keep it short and stay on the flat paths.

**hike description:** We start at the train station Arth-Goldau. This hike is more difficult and "scarier" than the hikes we did recently. But because it is the first difficult hike of the season, I planned much more than enough time. Because a part of the hike is T4, if you want to join, you must at least have done a T3 hike before, or If you really want to join and you don't have t3 experience, you can take the parallel path without going through Rigi Hochflue (direct path between point 3 and 6 on the map), but you will probably have to wait for the rest of the group a little. As usual you need to be fit and have hiking good shoes Once we reach Gersau, it is an easy hike along the shore. We can make a break here and swim and then slowly go to Ingelbohl for the concert. https://www.komoot.com/tour/2834040563?ref=aso&share_token=aa0wR9knckHsU0dlmNXVqB3UdYfwCxl46tIwSa600UiCNIKtwE **More information about the concert** It is free but donation are welcome.

A space to return to what is essential We invite you to take part in a ritual gathering for men, created for those who feel the call to pause, breathe, and reconnect with their inner strength in a safe and authentic space. We gather in the forest, around the grandfather fire, to share ceremonial cacao and form a circle of presence, listening, and brotherhood. This is not a workshop, nor a talk, nor a “self-improvement” experience. It is a living space of encounter, where each man is welcome exactly as he is. There are no hierarchies here, no masks to wear. Only men walking their own path, supported by the strength of the circle. **Who is this gathering for?** * This circle is open to men who: * Seek a more honest connection with themselves. * Feel the desire to inhabit their masculinity with greater awareness and maturity. * Value silence, authentic speech, and presence. * Wish to experience brotherhood beyond competition or judgment. * Are willing to listen and to be listened to. * No previous experience with circles, rituals, or spiritual practices is required. Only a willingness to be present. **What we will experience together** During this gathering of approximately two hours, we will move through simple yet profound practices, guided with care and clarity: * Ceremonial Cacao Circle, Cacao as a heart medicine, supporting openness, listening, and authentic expression. * Sacred Fire, The grandfather fire as the center of the gathering, witness to our intentions and processes. * Meditation and Presence, Moments of silence and inner connection, held by the group. * Talking Circle, A safe space to share from truth, without advice or judgment. * Connection with Nature: The forest as a living temple that reminds us of what truly matters. * Expression and Rhythm: An optional moment of music, song, or percussion to integrate the experience. Each gathering honors the energy of conscious masculinity, integrating strength and sensitivity, direction and openness. **Practical information** Duration: Approximately 2 hours Location: Forests of Zurich (The exact location is shared after registration) Energy exchange: Single ticket: 30 CHF Brothers ticket (2 people): 50 CHF Places are limited to preserve the quality and intimacy of the circle. **What to bring** * A cup for ceremonial cacao * A water bottle * Wood for the fire * An offering for the altar (fruit, seeds, a photo, or something that represents love and gratitude) * Notebook and pen * Musical instrument (optional) * Comfortable, warm clothing for outdoor conditions * Something light to eat after the gathering * We recommend fasting for at least 2 hours beforehand, as we will be working with ceremonial cacao. * A held and conscious space * This gathering is held with respect, confidentiality, and presence. Everything shared in the circle remains within the circle. The use of alcohol or other substances before or during the gathering is not permitted. **Reserve your place** 👉 [https://www.mama-cacao.ch](https://www.mama-cacao.ch/) **Upon registration you will receive:** Please join our group, to kwon the location and ask any question you have Men’s WhatsApp Group [https://chat.whatsapp.com/IslQaOq9plTGv6fFNRTRE9](https://chat.whatsapp.com/IslQaOq9plTGv6fFNRTRE9) Mama Cacao Community WhatsApp Group [https://chat.whatsapp.com/CbTg7sUdnB35gLX6jILEGS](https://chat.whatsapp.com/CbTg7sUdnB35gLX6jILEGS) Telegram Channel [https://t.me/+5Bu537lvzWplZjNk](https://t.me/+5Bu537lvzWplZjNk) Newsletter [https://www.mama-cacao.ch/contact-7](https://www.mama-cacao.ch/contact-7) This space is supported by **Dharma Collective**, with hearts aligned in support of the **Chakana Project**.

Die Sonne strahlt, die Tage sind lang - was gibt es Schoneres, als sich auf den Rollen auszutoben und den warmen Wind im Haar zu spüren? Die Greifensee Route ist angenehm zu fahren, hat wenig Steigung. Der Rundweg bietet wunderschöne Naturkulisse mit Blick auf Wasser, Schilflandschaften und Berge. Nach der sportlichen Runde lassen Wir den Abend gemütlich ausklingen an einem Feuer, geniessen die Gemeinschaft und tauschen uns aus über das Thema: "Der Weg ist das Ziel." Vormerkung: Der Anlass findet nur bei trockenen Strassen statt! Fals das Wetter nicht mitspielt weichen wir auf ein Alternativprogramm aus :)

Who else is ready to sit outside? Join us for a casual chat over coffee & tea at Grandview Grind! Come out and meet some new people, enjoy your favorite drink, and make some new friends!
