Flow • Breathe • Heal & Dine 🌿
This event is a little different from our usual Potlucks and Brunches.
For the past **4 years**, this has been one of our favorite summer traditions: a beautiful half-day urban retreat in the heart of Zurich, created to help you slow down, reconnect and nourish yourself on every level.
The evening begins with a gentle **Restorative Yoga** practice (suitable for all levels), followed by a deeply transformative **Conscious Connected Breathwork** journey and a soothing **Sound Bath**.
Afterwards, we'll gather around a beautifully set table in the garden for a homemade, 100% plant-based **Ayurvedic 6-course dinner**, enjoyed by candlelight as the sun slowly sets over Zurich. ✨
And because no Eat Positive event would be complete without something sweet, there will also be a delicious selection of **Raw Vegan Desserts**, as well as a little surprise gift waiting for you. 🤍
This is an invitation to pause, breathe, connect and savor the moment - an experience designed to nourish body, mind and soul.
🌟 **ONLY 2 SPOTS REMAINING!** 🌟
**Special for Eat Positive Switzerland Members:**
As a member of our community, you can still benefit from the **Early Bird price**, which means a **CHF 20 discount** on the regular ticket price.
To claim your discounted ticket, simply reach out to me (Iri) directly at **+41 75 443 93 49**. This special offer is not available through Eventfrog.
We can't wait to share this beautiful evening with you. 🌿

Al Aire Libre Club ☀️
**Al Aire Libre Club**
Son “gatherings creativos” de verano en la naturaleza para inspirarnos a través de conversaciones, journaling, juegos y actividades creativas al aire libre. ¿Y porque este espacio existe?… because girls just wanna have fun 🎶
**Primer encuentro de verano: LA INSPIRACIÓN**
La inspiración… esa que emerge en lo cotidiano.
Una frase de una película que nos mueve, una canción que despierta recuerdos, algo que nos atraviesa, un paisaje que nos devuelve la calma, un instante simple en el que sentimos que algo se despierta y se mueve dentro de nosotras.
Y ese impulso se siente como ganas: ganas de crear, de tomar una decisión, de darle forma a algo que tiene significado para nosotras.
**¿Cuál es la actividad para romper el hielo?**
En este encuentro creativo vamos a jugar con la inspiración...
Trae algo que te haya inspirado: una frase de un libro, una canción cuya letra te atraviese, un libro que te cambió la vida, un dije u objeto con un significado profundo para ti, una foto que amas o algo que hayas/estes creando.. ya sea físico, un concepto de un proyecto o algo que tú misma hayas escrito y sientas que ya es momento de compartir.
La idea es venir a dejar que ruja tu alma: compartir lo que traes y contarnos por qué es tan especial para ti.
* Queremos inspirarnos mutuamente, tener conversaciones auténticas y profundas.
* Que este sea un espacio donde nos enseñes un pedacito de ese mágico universo que habita en ti.
* Queremos conocerte a través de lo que te mueve, y que todas salgamos con los ojos llenos de estrellitas, listas para seguir creando más de eso que nos inspira.
**Trae:**
* Una manta o tela para sentarte
* Tu libreta y lápiz
* Una bebida para mantenerte hidratada (necesitamos ese cerebro prendido, creativo y presente)
* Algo para comer o compartir
* Y, obviamente, no olvides traer algo que te inspire (según la descripción de arriba)
Este espacio lo vamos a co-crear juntas.
**¿Te sumas?**
🗓 Sábado 20 de Junio
🕒 10:30 am – 13:00pm
📍 Zürichhorn, Höschgasse 3, Zürich, CH (Cerca de Chinagarten, junto al lago, a lado de la escultura llamada “Heureka" de Jean Tinguely)

LEELA / LILA das lebensverändernde spirituelle Spiel
"Lila" bedeutet auf Sanskrit "Spiel" und lehrt uns, das Leben spielerisch zu betrachten und jeden Moment anzunehmen. Dieses Konzept, das 1975 durch Harish Johari im Westen bekannt wurde, basiert auf vedischer Philosophie und analysiert die 72 grundlegenden Zustände des Bewusstseins, die den 72 Lila-Spielplätzen entsprechen. Das Lila-Spiel ist ein Werkzeug zur Selbsterkenntnis, das den Spielern hilft, ihren Lebensweg zu reflektieren und gegebenenfalls anzupassen. Durch Würfeln und die Interaktion mit karmischen Kräften bewegen sich die Spieler durch verschiedene Bewusstseinsebenen, bis sie das kosmische Bewusstsein erreichen, um unsere eigenen Muster und Verhaltensweisen zu erkennen und zu verändern. Dieses Werkzeug hilft dir für klare Einsicht in die Wahrheit, unseren eigenen Illusionen und einen Weg zur Transformation.
WIE LÄUFT DAS LILA / LEELA SPIEL AB?
Das Leela-Spiel wird auf einem grossen Feld mit 72 Feldern gespielt, das verschiedene Lebensphasen widerspiegelt. Jedes Feld steht für einen Energietyp, einen Bewusstseinszustand oder eine Entwicklungsstufe, die wir im physischen Leben erleben. Die Herausforderungen im Spiel spiegeln die Prüfungen des realen Lebens wider und ermöglichen es, Erkenntnisse schneller zu gewinnen. Die Teilnehmer werden von spirituellen Führern begleitet, die beim Würfeln und beim Erreichen der relevanten Felder unterstützen. Erfahrene Lila-Leiter leiten das Spiel, stellen präzisierende Fragen und helfen den Spielern bei ihrer inneren Transformation. Das Spiel bietet die Möglichkeit, verschiedene Lebenswege zu erkunden und neue Lösungsansätze zu finden, ohne die Risiken des realen Lebens einzugehen. Während einige Spieler schnell durch das Spiel gehen, hängt der Fortschritt nicht von Wahrscheinlichkeit ab, sondern von der Klarheit der eigenen Absichten. Das Spiel kann still oder mit verbaler Absicht gespielt werden, was zusätzliche Bedeutung und Antworten bringt. Indische Yogis betrachten das Lila-Spiel als einen Dialog mit dem eigenen Geist, der zur Transformation der Persönlichkeit führt. Die Veränderungen im physischen Leben zeigen sich in den folgenden sechs Monaten.
VORBEREITUNG:
Nimm dir eine Frage, die dich aktuell sehr beschäftigt, ein Notizbuch und einen Stift und ein persönliches Objekt bzw. einen Talisman mit. Getränke und Snacks stellen wir zur Verfügung.

ZH3 Hash # 1734: The Bad, Badder, BADEN! Hash
Hared by the amalgamation monstrosity Slippery Nob, come join us as we stare death into the eyes and laugh at its feeble attempt at melting us in the blistering summer heat.
You can expect many ups and downs around Baden, followed by an optional On-In at the Fortyseven bath/sauna area where we can truly stress our drunk bodies in even more heat!
Bag drop will be provided, so bring your towel, swimming trunks and desire to melt your skin away!
**Where**:
Bahnhofstrasse 31 5400 Baden AG
Direction to the station
At the station, take the central underpass and head towards Baden Zentrum (east side). At the end of the underpass (in the underground concourse) turn left and walk past the station ticket counters. Leave the concourse between LIDL and the Ledergerber clothing store and head towards the bus station. At the last bus platform, make for the circular ramp and descend it to the parking bays on level -1. The Mobility location occupies bays 20 to 23 and 40 to 45.
Look for English speakers wearing running gear.
**When:**
We'll meet at 6:50 pm to start at 7:00 pm except on Saturday or Sundays when it is usually 2:00pm.
There's a charge of CHF 5 for participating, which covers all you can drink beer/cider (and non-alcoholic alternatives) plus snacks afterwards.
**All Welcome:**
If you are new, curious, and want to get out of the house, stretch your legs, talk shit, enjoy a drink, and hopefully a laugh, then here's what you need to know:
• We are a social running/walking group, physical fitness is not required, but a sense of humour is useful.
• The aim is to find the '*Beer Stop*' at the end of the '*trail*' and have fun.
• 'True Trail' is typically 4-7 km. Some will go less (especially those walking or walk/running), and some over-achieving fast runners will go further.
• The '*Hare*', which changes each event (along with location), cleverly lays the trail (typically with flour marks) so that everyone reaches the end at the same time.
• There is always a place to deposit your bag and sometimes a place to change.
• **After Trail**, we group for \~20-40 minutes for drinks, snacks, and some fun. This '*Circle*' is typically outside, so leave something warm in your bag in winter (and bring a flashlight when it's dark). If you don't want to stand around drinking afterwards, you can head home. We occasionally all go to a restaurant afterwards.
**Why bother leaving your warm & dry sofa?**
If you enjoy getting outside, being around people, and doing something a bit different, you will probably enjoy hashing. Exercise is important, and this is probably the least boring way to get it.
'Hashing' and the idea of some physical activity to work up a thirst, have been around for almost 90 years and there are groups (*Hashes*) in most major cities. Its humor and 'traditions' can be explored on the internet - **or you can just come along and find out.** *See you there.*
We are of many nationalities, all ages, full of misfits and idiots (at least there is no one taking themselves seriously!) and always welcome newbies 'Virgin Hashers' and visitors from other groups.

Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code - Alan Barber
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
*Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code*
Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs.
In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling.
The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options.

AI Agents 101: How to Make ChatGPT Do Actual Work
Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat.
But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review.
In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll demystify what AI agents actually are — without hype or jargon. We’ll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity.
We’ll cover:
* What makes an AI “agent” instead of just a chatbot
* How agents break tasks into steps
* Where agents are genuinely useful today
* Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review
* How to design simple AI workflows for your own work
* A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish
No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now.
LOGISTICS AND PARKING:
The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks!
The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
