* You've tried meditation apps and found them boring or ineffective
* You want something practical that actually works — fast
***
**What to expect:**
A guided breathwork session led by a qualified breathwork instructor who spent years in the tech industry and hit a wall of complete burnout trying to keep up with the AI race.
These sessions are practical, grounded and built for sceptics — no incense, no spiritual fluff, just breathing techniques that work on your nervous system immediately.
Each session runs **30–45 minutes** and covers breathwork to help with:
🧠 Stress and anxiety relief

Puppy Yoga:
In the first 3 months of a puppies life it is very important to expose your puppies to different people, new environments, sounds and smells. Puppy yoga is a safe and fun space that aids with our puppies socialisation.
When you cuddle a puppy, it has psychological benefits, increasing the happy hormones: oxytocin and serotonin to the brain and lowering cortisol levels (the negative hormone) similar to when you embrace a new-born baby for the first time. This in turn with the yoga, will leave you feeling physically , mentally and emotional balanced and fulfillled.
For health and safety reasons an Adult must attend and supervise the child. One adult per two children tickets purchased.
Tickets non-refundable but can be redeemed against any future puppy yoga event with BarePaws Yoga Ltd.

INTRO TO WOODWORK – WOOD STOOL WEEKEND
**Bookable via our website ➡️** [https://www.thegoodlifecentre.co.uk/events/intro-to-woodwork-wood-stool-weekend-11/](https://www.thegoodlifecentre.co.uk/events/intro-to-woodwork-wood-stool-weekend-11/)
⋆⋆⋆
Suitable for absolute beginners. Enjoyable for everyone.
One weekend workshop. 10am – 5pm.
By popular demand – a content-packed two-day basic carpentry woodwork course spread over one weekend. Beginners will be given plenty of help and more experienced students may work at their own pace. Make your own pine wood stool and take it home with you to be admired by friends and family.
This is a great starter workshop that introduces the skills of how to measure accurately, cut precisely, and join planks together using dowels. In addition to this, the legs- made from class broomsticks – are connected to the base using a ‘wedged through tenon’ which is a classic woodworking joint and produces a very strong and pleasing result. The tools used include handsaws, chisels, planes, and spokeshaves and you can even get a chance to try an old-fashioned ‘bit and brace’ drill if you choose. If you are contemplating our longer ‘[Carpentry for Beginners](http://www.thegoodlifecentre.co.uk/beginners-carpentry/)’ course, this can be a great way to gain confidence.
Beginners will be given plenty of help and more experienced students may work at their own pace. If your knowledge of woodwork is a feint but a fond memory of CDT or carpentry at school, you are in the right place.
Our experienced tutor will guide a small group through the design and making of an elegant pine stool using traditional hand tools.
The workshop focuses on jointing wood with dowels, using and caring for a plane and chisel, using spokeshaves, and drilling with an auger.
Intrigued? Come and find out more.
All personal protection and the use of tools and materials are included.
This workshop takes place over one weekend: 10am – 5pm.

Kundalini Activation London, Hackney Wick - Awaken Your Authentic Self!
**EVENT OVERVIEW**
Join us for an intimate Kundalini Activation session designed to awaken your life-force energy and reconnect you with your authentic self.

**WHAT IS KUNDALINI ACTIVATION?**
Unlike Kundalini Yoga that relies on physical postures and breath-work, this journey is one of complete surrender. The intelligent life-force energy naturally rises within you, awakening dormant parts of your being and fostering growth on emotional, mental and spiritual levels. This intuitively guided process works in harmony with your unique needs, gently releasing stored emotions and helping you rediscover your authentic self.
**THIS IS PERFECT FOR YOU, IF YOU:**
★Want to find your authentic self through awakening your Kundalini
★Have tried therapy or other modalities but feel they haven't touched the deepest parts of what you need to release
★Are seeking the truth within - who you are at the level of identity OR beyond the identity
★Value intimate, personal, exclusive spaces (max 6 people) over large groups
★Are ready for deep transformation, not just relaxation
★Want tough motherly love from Kali energy that will destroy everything that isn't true for you
**WHY GROUPS MATTER**
This journey touches the deepest parts of who you are. In our 10-person setting, you can surrender fully to whatever wants to emerge - whether it's tears you've held back for years, anger you've suppressed, or joy you've forgotten how to feel. These groups creates a safe space for emotional vulnerability and deeper connections to share and listen to everyone's experiences.

Why Real Estate Investors Should Become Licensed Agents (And When Not To)
REGISTER HERE: [SIGN UP TODAY](https://link.elitereimm.com/widget/form/mUCJcb9LFDGoPqRg82jP?am_id=debbie4540)
Should a real estate investor get a real estate license? Sometimes it’s a massive advantage… and sometimes it can complicate your business if you don’t know what you’re walking into.
In this training, we’ll cut through the “agents vs investors” drama and focus on one thing: **what makes you more money and gives you more leverage**.
You’ll learn:
* **When being licensed helps investors win** (better access, better data, better terms, better deal flow)
* How investors use a license to **create extra profit centers** (commissions, referrals, listings, buyer rep, property management pathways)
* The truth about **MLS access, pocket listings, and being first to the good deals**
* How licensing impacts **wholesaling, double-closing, assignments, and disclosures**
* What brokerages don’t tell you: **fees, splits, compliance, and time requirements**
* When it’s smarter to **partner with an agent** instead of becoming one
* A simple decision framework: **licensed vs partnered vs hybrid model**
You’ll walk out knowing whether licensing fits your goals—and if it does, the cleanest path to do it without slowing down your investing.
