This circular walk begins at Nijmegen Heyendaal train station and takes us through some forests to the south of Nijmegen. We’ll walk through Brakkenstein park, then a tranquil botanical garden (Stichting Hortus), then into the Dekkerswald woodland estate. Further south we will walk through the north part of the Groesbeekbos and stop for refreshments at the Boscafé de Zweef. Then we walk northward again through the pine forests of the Heumensoord and the leafy University grounds to get back to the station. The walk is mostly flat, but features mostly rough/uneven paths so it is recommended to wear sturdy walking shoes. As always, remember to bring water and maybe some snacks.

Hello, my dear nature and wine lovers! It’s finally time to reunite, catch up, and kick off a brand-new hiking season filled with beautiful walks, meaningful connections, and memorable experiences. We’re excited to invite you to a special hiking adventure near Nijmegen, combining nature, movement, and Dutch wine culture. We’ll begin the day slowly and gezellig with a traditional cup of coffee at our favorite café in Nijmegen, followed by a relaxed walk through the city. From there, we’ll head into the woods, passing through the charming Philosopher’s Valley, with its swinging hedges, forest paths, and surprisingly hilly landscapes that make this area so special. This hike is all about enjoying nature, good company, and shared moments, with fellow hikers just like you. **Finish in the Wine Village of the Netherlands:** Groesbeek After completing our 14 km hike, we’ll arrive in Groesbeek, officially known as the wine village of the Netherlands. Here, we’ll visit a local wine centre for a guided tour and tasting: Wine tour & tasting: €19.50 per person Vineyard & wine cellar visit Tasting of 3 local wines Non-alcoholic options available Duration: 1.5 hours Optional local food platter: €7.50 per person A bit of background The story of Groesbeek wine began in 2000, when former sports teacher Freek Verhoeven started growing vines as a hobby. Thanks to the rich soil and hilly terrain, his wines quickly gained recognition and even won awards. Today, under new leadership, the winery is known for innovation, including low-alcohol (2%) wines and naturally sulfite-free wines. Groesbeek has since grown into a true wine hub, with vineyards, a professional wine centre, tastings, workshops, and a stunning terrace overlooking the vines, the perfect ending to our hike. **Quick Itinerary** Date: February 28 Meeting Point: Bluf Café, Nijmegen Start Time: 9:30 Distance: 14 km (Nijmegen → Groesbeek) Return: Bus back to Nijmegen **Meetup Fee: €8** **Payment & confirmation:** Please confirm your participation by sending the payment by February 15th to secure your spot; after that, any remaining places will be offered to the waiting list.

Give your still good laptop a second life instead of ditching it because Windows 11 says it is no good... Or you heard Linux is cool. If you have a backup of your data, that is great, else indicate that you do not, so we can help you. Do so in an extra message, else I don't receive your information. Geef je laptop die het nog prima doet een tweede kans in plaats van hem af te schrijven omdat Window 11 dat zegt... Of omdat je hoorde dat Linux gaaf is. Als je al een backup van je data hebt gemaakt is dat perfect. Of verwacht je dat wij dat doen? In dat geval graag aangeven hoe vol je harde schijf nu is... Doe dat in een extra bericht, want de info komt anders niet door.

**Limited spots, only 2 left!** You can sign up at: https://hipsy.nl/event/183535-back-to-your-essence-body-breath-being Over the years, I’ve learned that **real balance** and **peace** begin not in the mind, but in the body, by listening to its wisdom, learning to recognize its signals and reconnect with the essence. This is the space I’ve created for you on **March 1st**. This 2-hour immersive **somatic** and **breathwork journey** is designed to take you beyond the surface, into the body’s language of sensation, emotion, and energy. It’s not just about calmness, it’s about allowing what’s been stored within you to rise, move, and release, so that what remains is **pure presence**. You’ll be guided through a curated flow of **conscious connected breathwork, somatic movement,** and **intuitive touch,** supported by an immersive multidimensional soundscape intentionally designed to evoke and liberate emotion. Each phase builds toward a deep release, followed by grounding, stillness, and reflection to anchor what’s been opened. Expect moments of intensity, aliveness, and expansion. You may shake, sigh, cry, or feel energy moving and that’s exactly what this work invites: a safe and supported return to feeling. You’ll be guided through: * ️ **Conscious connected breathwork** to release emotional and physical tension * ‍♀️ **Somatic movement** to awaken body awareness and ease stored patterns * **Grounding and stillness** to reconnect with your natural rhythm * ✍️ **Reflection & integration** to anchor insights into daily life This is not a performance or a class, it’s a space to *feel*, to *listen*, and to *remember* who you are beneath the layers of doing. You’ll leave feeling grounded, calm, and more connected to your inner essence. **Practical info:** ️ **Duration:** 2 hours **Location:** Yagoy West. Postjesweg 106-1, 1057 EG Amsterdam ️ **Facilitator:** Özlem Soydas — Yoga Teacher, Breathwork & Somatic Coach, and Transformational Coach **Invest:** €45 **Bring:** Comfortable clothing, journal, and an open mind You can register at: https://hipsy.nl/event/183535-back-to-your-essence-body-breath-being **Limited spots, only 4 left!** **Who am I?** I’m **Özlem**, a transformational coach (in training), yoga teacher, breathwork and somatic coach. After nearly 15 years in corporate leadership roles in companies like Unilever, Henkel, I shifted my focus to wellbeing, self-discovery, and transformation. My work brings together the body, mind, and breath, helping people reconnect with their inner wisdom, their true essence and move through change with clarity and self-trust. ### **⚠️ Health Disclaimer** This session includes light movement, conscious connected breathwork, and guided somatic exploration. It is **not a substitute for medical or psychological treatment**. Please **avoid participating** if you are currently pregnant, have a history of **epilepsy, severe cardiovascular conditions, or psychosis**, or if you are experiencing **acute trauma**.

Join in for a morning of crafting & chatting over a drink. Just bring your own project and payment for drinks. Meet fellow crafting enthusiasts, whether it's knitting, crocheting, stitching, origami, or something more unique! We talk about our projects, exchange tipps, but also just get to know each other and enjoy a relaxed Sunday morning in good company. All ages, levels and crafts welcome! And don't be shy, we have newcomers most weeks! **We have limited space at the café, so if you've RSVPd and can't make it, please cancel as early as possible so another person can join!** We now also have a WhatsApp group, where we want to organise get-togethers and other events. Ask one of the organisers at the next Meetup you join for more information and access.

This meetup explores key ideas from \*\*Jordan Peterson’\*\*s book Beyond Order, focusing on how people find meaning, stability, and direction in a complex and uncertain world. Where his first book, "**12 Rules for Life"**, emphasised structure and discipline, his follow-up, "**Beyond Order**", looks at what happens when life becomes too rigid — and how growth often requires stepping into uncertainty while still taking responsibility for our actions. The themes are psychological and practical rather than political. **We’ll discuss topics such as:** * The balance between order and chaos in everyday life * Responsibility as a source of meaning * Truth, integrity, and self-honesty * Limits, discipline, and self-respect * Choosing meaningful difficulty over comfort This is a guided conversation, not a lecture or debate. It would be nice if those who attend also read the book, but it's not necessary — curiosity and personal reflections are also welcome. Disclaimer: This is not therapy and not a political discussion. **Who’s this for?** Anyone interested in psychology, personal responsibility, and meaning-making. First-timers are welcome. No prior knowledge of Jordan Peterson or the book is required. **Why pay for the event?** I have to reserve a table at a restaurant, they expect that we at least drink something, so your reservation includes a drink, whether it is tea, coffee or cola.

Hello filmmakers, we welcome you to our next in-person networking Meetup! On Sunday March 1, we will meet again in the city center of Utrecht. We will meet in Lebowski (a cozy bar in the shadow of the Dom Tower), without a designated area, so this Meetup will be a quite informal, unstructured event, aimed at one-on-one networking, and getting to know other (aspiring) filmmakers. This meetup provides filmmakers (writers, directors, actors, composers, cinematographers, editors, everyone..) with the opportunity to meet and network with one another, share ideas, and potentially collaborate on present or future projects, all in a relaxed and informal setting. So if you have any specific project in mind that you would like to start up and are looking for people to collaborate with, or if you want to participate in upcoming projects initiated by others, don't hesitate and join this Meetup! If you want to exchange ideas before the Meetup, please do so on our Discord channel. The invite link can be found on our web page: www.openfilmmakingnetwork.nl Filmmakers with an idea are warmly invited to share it with us during the Meetup, in the form of a well-prepared tagline and/or pitch. So bring your ideas, skills and creative self to this meeting & see you then! This is a free Meetup. Please note there is no group account for our table—drinks and food should be ordered and paid for individually at the bar. Keep an eye on this page, as we sometimes move next door to Bar Walden, in which case we'll announce it here. btw: maybe needless to say, but you can walk in (and out) any time from 2 to 5. PS: Please update your RSVP so we'll know who to expect.

The meditation is offered on a donation basis. See our [website](https://utrechtbuddhistcentre.nl/) for more information.

Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a “window” to a result set when used in SQL queries. They are powerful, set-based methods to view data in unexpected ways. Window functions provide easy, set-based solutions to solve some common problems: * Using running totals * Performing operations in intervals * Identifying data gaps and islands * Performing aggregates without losing detail Many people are confused by window functions and do not know how to use them properly. This session will explore window functions, how they work, and how to use them. Demonstrations with several examples will solidify how window functions can simplify queries and make them more powerful.
