Tribalheart Ecstatic Dance
DANCING EVERY 1ST AND 3RD SATURDAYS OF THE MONTH <3
Tribalheart Ecstatic dance creates space for free-form movement in a chat free zone where you can dive deeply into the heart, reconnecting, expressing, dancing in and out, up and down, learning to let go of anything and everything that holds you back from yourSelf and inner freedom. Let the energy move you, let the spirit of the heart guide you. There is space to dance alone and no pressure to connect with anyone else, just be yourself and honour what you need in the moment.
This night is an inspiration and fusion of club culture, dancing yoga, active meditation, cardio fitness, Ecstatic trance dance (blindfolds available) and a sacred Nataraj. If you choose to connect, it is a chance to meet others without words from a place of movement, meditation, energy and soul; eyes and heart wide open.
###
We will start the evening with a welcoming warmup to relax the body and mind. Together we will set an intention for the evening inviting the heart to open and awaken within us thus creating sacred space for all. For those that wish to partake, we will enjoy and deepen our intention with a short Cacao ceremony. (The cacao is used to take us deeper into our body, awakening our senses, connecting us to heart energy and aiding a spring in our step) We also embark on some dynamic breathwork to fire us up for the evening.
\- Please leave at least 2 hours after eating a heavy meal if drinking cacao\.
-Please do not drink alcohol before the event as it is contraindicated with some of the breathwork techniques we practice
We inject passion into sourcing the music for our events and aim to deliver an eclectic mix of genres for your heart. From tribal to electronic and everything in between we aim to assist a natural flow peaking and resting to mirror the rhythm and energy of life. Prepare to shake, spin, whirl and twirl. The music becomes the facilitator during the wild ecstatic dance ending with moments of stillness into silence where we can rest and breathe together
Each DJ has their own sound and energy to be shared, making each night unique and different...

Kundalini Activation London - 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. Limited to just 6 participants, this 2-hour experience offers profound emotional release and spiritual transformation through gentle surrender - no yoga poses or breath-work required.
**WHAT TO EXPECT - SESSION AGENDA**
**12:00-12:15pm - Welcome & Introduction**
* Meet fellow participants in our intimate group setting
* Brief overview of the Kundalini Activation process
**12:15-12:30pm - Body Scan Meditation**
* Guided meditation to help you reconnect with your body
* Entering a surrendered, receptive state
**12:30-1:30pm - The Energy Activation Process**
* Carefully curated music journey
* Energy Transmissions and individual attention
* Safe space for whatever wants to emerge naturally
**1:30-2:00pm - Integration & Sharing Circle**
* Tea and chocolate provided
* Optional sharing of experiences
* Connect with your new spiritual community
**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 SMALL GROUPS MATTER**
This journey touches the deepest parts of who you are. In our intimate 6-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. The smaller group creates a safer space for emotional vulnerability and deeper connections that larger groups simply can't offer.

Free Meditation & Yoga - Join us on - Saturdays 11:00am in Enfield
Meetings run weekly on Saturdays from 11.00-12.30 in Enfield Town Library,
Community Room, 66 Church Street, Enfield, EN2 6AX
Join us for wonderful **free** weekly meditation sessions in Enfield Town Library, classes are always free.
Sahaja Yoga is a unique form of meditation that will enable you to connect with your Inner Self, establishing a higher awareness within you resulting in a deep feeling of peace, calmness, balance, and joy.
It is a tangible practical **experience**: Sahaja Yoga is “Subtle, Simple and Real”.
It was founded by H.H. Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi ( 1923-2011) and has at its core the process of Self Realisation: connecting with your real Self through the awakening of the dormant energy in our sacrum bone called Kundalini who takes us into the deep peaceful state of thoughtless awareness.
In the class, we will go through the process of Self Realisation and learn how to achieve the state of meditation effortlessly. Also, we will learn about balancing our subtle system, diagnosing and solving our problems, and meditating at home.
Sahaja Yoga helps all aspects of our life: physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual, it is an extraordinary method, unique from any other types of meditations as it uses our own energy Kundalini who can correct our chakras, balance us, and take us to a much higher and deeper state of awareness.
We do not need mats, we sit on chairs, it is easy and simple, Sahaja means spontaneous in Sanskrit, and it is for all cultures, ages, religions, and backgrounds.
There are free meetings all over London, the UK, and more than 100 countries.
If you are looking for well-being, harmony, and solving your problems, if you want to get out of confusion, and/or mental health problems, if you are looking for answers then you are in the right place.
Come along and try, no need to sign up, beginners are welcome anytime.
**“ Sahaja Yoga is a method by which our Pure Desire is fulfilled “ (from the founder Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi)**

KindSteps Morning Walk – Greenwich Park (Calm & Low-Pressure)
This is a calm, low-pressure morning walk in Greenwich Park.
The idea is simple: we walk together, take things at an easy pace, and enjoy being outside.
There’s no pressure to talk — you’re welcome to walk quietly or chat if you feel like it.
This is not therapy and there’s no agenda. Just a safe, friendly space to start the day gently and connect with others.
We’ll walk for about an hour and finish back near the starting point.
Everyone is welcome.
Winter Spirituality Micro Retreat
## About the Event
The darkest part of winter - with its heaviness, bleakness and the cold - soon lies behind us, as subtle energies emerge, holding the promise of new life and creation.
This tender stirring is the perfect time to plant seeds for new beginnings, preparing rebirth of our whole being. Reflecting on the gifts of this darkest of seasons and connecting to sources of strength, we nurture ourselves from deep within, overcoming the shadows.
Such activity not only brings healing, awakening and inner peace, it also helps us stay strong, resilient and trusting in the outer world, a world that is in breathtaking transition and change.
Join us as we dream, resolve, share and seed new ideas – drawing on wisdom found in ritual, music, mantra, poetic word, yoga nidra and seasonal Ayurvedic medicine lifestyle advice. Anchoring into wholeness we awaken as a clearing for the miracle of life & nature to be reborn through us once again.
**Please arrive at 1.45pm for a 2pm start.** Refreshments are available.
Suggested donation: £10 - give what you can!

New Year Labyrinth meditation workshop
Come and walk in silence and to music, around a replica of the labyrinth on the floor of Chartres Cathedral in extended time of walking meditation and reflection. The Labyrinth is a means, a tool which can help us to go within ourselves to “find our way”. To connect with our own inner Light and connect to a deeper/ higher sense of ourselves. It has no dogma or agenda. All we are asked to do is walk.
Building on our regular practice of walking the labyrinth every two months on a Sunday evening, this workshop is an invitation to walk with intention and afterward there will be an opportunity to reflect on your experience through writing and meditation then share with others any insights you have gained.
**Donations**
We are a registered charity and rely on contributions to continue our work. We ask you to give what you can afford. Suggested donation: £10

Krishnamurti-Inspired Sunday Dialogue
**Here we meet up outside of the restaurant setting, in a beautiful room at the Tibetan Buddhist Centre in London. The quiet venue is helpful for perhaps a greater deep dive and attention to our topic.**
Together we shall be exploring some of the themes that Krishnamurti is proposing but, more importantly, that we ourselves are actually facing in everyday life.
Krishnamurti is showing us what he sees about human conditioning and the lack or freedom and love that dominates existence.
Our inquiry is to see this conditioning for ourselves and to perhaps bring about fundamental change?
**Dialogue Dates For 2026**
* Sunday 8th February
* Sunday 8th March
* Sunday 12th April
* Sunday 10th May
* Sunday date in June awaiting confirmation
* SORRY THE CENTRE IS CLOSED DURING JULY & AUGUST
* Sunday 13th September
* Sunday 11th October
* Sunday 8th November
* Sunday 13th December
**The Dialogue**
As we sit together and exchange on any unresolved topics of our own lives or of life in general. Are these issues shared or are they also deeply personal?
What is real listening to each other or is my listening and attention already conditioned? What is authentic inquiry and can we think together during our dialogue?
**Refreshments**
Do come early and have a cup of tea with friends here at the Tibetan Buddhist Cafe on the premises.
You can also go and sit in the little garden outside or relax in the lovely library for more private informal dialogues between participants.
I will be present at the premises cafe for pre dialogue get togethers: (please contact me if you want me to be there at a specific time...)
**Contribution Price for the Dialogue**
There will be a cost of £10 per dialogue per person to cover the hiring of the room, thank you

Practical Philosophy Meetup - London 🇬🇧
**🏛️ WHAT'S PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY ABOUT?**
Practical Philosophy is a weekly meet-up that brings critical thinkers together for an opportunity to dive deep on a topic, practice communicating, and building a community. All with no ‘official’ philosophy knowledge required! 😎
Practical Philosophy is based on the idea that philosophy should be accessible to all, and not something reserved only for academics. Each week we choose a topic, and the goal is to use the conversation to develop our critical thinking and communication as we explore that topic.
The goal is to help develop our Critical Thinking, Communication, and Community 🙌
📓 **HOW DOES IT WORK?**
Each week, we pick one topic and discuss it. The topic for the week is shared, generally in the [Whatsapp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Ja2H9lXYtWX8RdCKHw6qNK), along with jump-off points to get the conversation going.
When groups get bigger than 7-8 people, it’s important that we break into smaller groups. This way we are able to maintain a conversational flow as opposed to having our meetups feel like a discourse or lecture.
**General Meeting Agenda**
Each Practical Philosophy meet-up follows this general timeline:
* 11.45-12:00 - People arrive and chat, get to know each other before the ‘official' start.
* 12:00-12:15 - Meeting introduction, explanation of Practical Philosophy and the topic for the week, read the guidelines and the overview so attendees know what to expect in terms of timelines.
* 12:15-12:55 - Break into small groups - introduce yourselves and general thoughts on the topic, open discussion afterwards. At this point the group can review the ‘jump-off’ questions as needed, but they are just there to help guide the conversation. It’s not obligatory to answer them.
* 13:00 - After putting chairs back in the Cabin, we do a group conclusion of the things we discussed, and then we typically take a photo and go on our way :) If you don't want to be in the group photo, there's no pressure, it's just a way to close out the meeting. You are free to continue discussions and roam the gardens afterwards.
**🧧PRICING?**
Practical Philosophy Club is FREE to attend, and we operate on donations. If you'd like to donate to support the cost of the location, that helps keep our group self-sustaining. Donations are 100% voluntary, but your contribution is appreciated!
**💛 WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY**
🗣 “I feel like Philosophy Club helps someone build their own belief system through a series of perspectives while not promoting what’s right and wrong” - Ekam
🗣 “I got hooked from day 1 (the topic was authority) and felt it was the right place for me. I feel it is a place where people can go to learn and discuss new perspectives and increase critical thinking and community by interacting with people who might challenge your point of views but at the same time encourage you to have openness and mind flexibility.” - Daniel
**🤓 FAQ**
* What will we talk about? What's the topic?
The topic for the week is shared every Sunday in the Whatsapp group. We try to add the topic to the comment section on this event page as well but if you don’t see it, the topic and the jump-off points will be in our [Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Ja2H9lXYtWX8RdCKHw6qNK).
* Do I need to study or read anything to attend?
No preparation is necessary. This isn’t a study of other thinkers. We want to know what YOU think about the topic, not what an old philosopher thought. If you have a perspective from a religion or a school of thought to share, throw it on the table and we’ll discuss it, but it's not required.
* Is there a specific philosophy that Practical Philosophy is focused on?
The goal of our meet-ups is to not have dogmatic discussions, and flex our critical thinking muscles. Because of this, we want to hear from every realm of thought, and don't study a particular school.
* Is it mostly men that attend?
Surprisingly, no! Although philosophy is seen as a Candelabra affair in a dark room with a bunch of guys, our Practical Philosophy meetups are generally 50/50 between genders, and we don’t meet in any dark rooms.
* Can I come alone?
Of course you can, we encourage it :)
* Can I be late?
Please don't be! We do have a 10 minute grace period where we allow people to funnel in while we hang out, but after that if you arrive too late, it disrupts the flow of the conversation.
* Where do you meet?
The location is posted in Meetup and our [Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Ja2H9lXYtWX8RdCKHw6qNK) group for this location. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you join the Whatsapp group! If you want to know what other cities have a Practical Philosophy Club, you can see our chapters on our [website](https://www.practicalphilosophy.club/practical-philosophy-locations/).
🤝**POLICY**
To respect our members privacy, we ask that no one privately message a member without first getting explicit consent. (This looks like speaking in person and being asked to message privately.) Contacting or texting other participants without prior consent is not permitted and may result in removal from the group. Practical Philosophy reserves the right to enforce this policy at its discretion to maintain a safe and respectful environment.
**PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY - Making Philosophy Available To All.** ✨
Practical Philosophy hosts weekly, in-person meetups in 25+ countries, including Canada, Spain, Japan, Mexico and many more! 🗺️

Humanist Community Celebrating Darwin Day
Dale Gnidovec, Curator of the Orton Hall Museum of Geology at The Ohio State University, will be presenting a program he has wanted to share with us for a long time: Plate Tectonics. His description of his program:
Continents on the move - Nothing in Earth history makes sense without moving continents - it tells us why mountains, volcanoes, minerals, and fossils are where they are. This talk examines the evidence for continental drift, why it was disbelieved, and explains how the more-encompassing theory of plate tectonics was developed and eventually proven. Dale is an energetic, incredibly knowledgeable, and very entertaining speaker and this will be another wonderful program by Dale. Hope to see you there!
Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk.

Freeing the Soul - An Introductory Circle
Meeting Room 3B, Main Library
Join us for a welcoming evening of reflection, gentle music, and meaningful conversation. We’ll begin with a short grounding moment, followed by a brief reading from spiritual or philosophical traditions, and an open reflection circle where participants can share (or simply listen).
Libera Animae is an interfaith community focused on inner growth, creativity, and authentic connection. This first gathering is a simple introduction to the spirit of the group and a chance to meet others seeking deeper meaning and community.
All backgrounds are welcome.
