Caminata consciente grupal
**Una invitaciรณn a bajar el ritmo y salir un rato del automรกtico.**
Nos encontramos para caminar juntos alrededor del Lago de Regatas, respirar aire fresco, mover el cuerpo y dejar que la naturaleza haga lo suyo: despejar, oxigenar y aflojar tensiones. Serรก un espacio simple y cuidado para habitar el cuerpo, calmar la mente y abrir el alma, compartiendo el recorrido con otros desde la escucha y la alegrรญa.
En este camino, **la atenciรณn plena se vuelve nuestra guรญa**, permitiรฉndonos entrenar la mente y abrir el corazรณn en cada paso. Lo hacemos simplemente **observando la respiraciรณn**, caminando a nuestro propio ritmo y escuchando las sensaciones del cuerpo para volver a habitarnos. A medida que avanzamos, nos vamos **abriendo al asombro**, dejando que los aromas y los sonidos que nos rodean nos saquen de los pensamientos y nos traigan al presente. Es desde ahรญ que podemos **conectar con los demรกs** de una manera distinta: desde una escucha atenta, sin interrupciones, hablando de manera amorosa y amable.
### ๐ Punto de encuentro y Recorrido
Nos encontramos en la esquina de **Av. del Libertador y Olleros** (en la esquina de la plaza). Desde ahรญ caminaremos hacia el **Lago de Regatas**, donde daremos 2 vueltas (cada una de 2 km)
### ๐ Para tu comodidad
Recordรก traer **agua**, **repelente** y venir con **ropa y calzado cรณmodo**.

Make Friends, Not Small Talk: Deep talks, Coffee, and Good Vibesโจ
๐ช๐ธEspaรฑol Abajo ๐
**โ๏ธ Coffee Talk: Where Conversations Are Stronger Than the Coffee โ๏ธ**
Had enough of awkward small talk and silent social gatherings? This is your chance to break free. Join us for a night of meaningful conversations about life, dreams, existential crises, and why we keep procrastinating our goals.
**๐น What to expect?**
โ๏ธ Thought-provoking questions (but not too deep, we promise).
โ๏ธ Interesting people with zero interest in discussing traffic.
โ๏ธ Interactive dynamics that push you out of your comfort zoneโwithout feeling like a job interview.
If you're ready for an evening of deep conversations, great coffee, and a dash of sarcastic humor, save your spot before you regret it (again).
๐ **Where?** Diletto โ Perรณn 4217 (because coffee without great conversations is just wasted caffeine).
๐ฐ **How much?** $5,000 ARS / $5 USD (yes, genuine connections have a price, but theyโre worth every cent).

**โ๏ธCoffee Talk: Donde las Conversaciones Son Mรกs Fuertes que el Cafรฉโ๏ธ**
Si ya tuviste suficiente de las mismas charlas de ascensor y los silencios incรณmodos en reuniones sociales, este es tu evento. Aquรญ venimos a hablar de todo lo que realmente importa: la vida, los sueรฑos, las crisis existenciales y por quรฉ seguimos procrastinando nuestras metas.
**๐น ยฟQuรฉ puedes esperar?**
โ๏ธ Preguntas que te harรกn pensar (pero no demasiado, prometemos).
โ๏ธ Gente interesante con cero ganas de hablar del trรกfico.
โ๏ธ Dinรกmicas interactivas que te sacarรกn de tu zona de confort sin hacerte sentir en una entrevista de trabajo.
Si estรกs listo para una tarde de conversaciones profundas con cafรฉ en mano y un toque de humor sarcรกstico, reserva tu lugar antes de que te arrepientas (otra vez).
๐ **ยฟDรณnde?** Diletto โ Perรณn 4217 (porque el cafรฉ sin buenas conversaciones es solo cafeรญna desperdiciada).

I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia
Contra dance with Big Scioty on Feb. 7 - First Congregational Church
**Caller: Dan Kappus**
**Band: Trillium**
**Big Scioty Contra Dance**
**temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215**
WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like youโve seen in period films such as โPride and Prejudiceโ, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. Thatโs English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like โswing your partnerโ and โdo-si-do,โ like youโve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alรก โRiverdance.โ Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THATโs Contra Dancing!
Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor.
Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner.
Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot.
For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/)
Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!
Friday Happy Hour for the over 50 crowd at Dublinโs Pint House!
After being cooped up all week with this snow and cold, itโs a great time to get out of the house and join us for a fun time at the Pint House!!
**Come anytime during 4-8. Stay as long as you want. No set time***
**WEโRE NOW IN A BIGGER AREA!**
Itโs a chance to meet people in our age group regardless if youโre in your fifties, sixties or seventies! Retired or still working.
Shut Up & Write!ยฎ East Side Columbus
Join us for an hour of writing! Weโve discovered that itโs strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if itโs true for you at 7:00pm on Wednesday, February 11 at Streetlight Guild.
Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done.
**SCHEDULE:**
6:45ish - Quick introductions
7:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour
8:00 - The End
**OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING** happens before and after the writing hour. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing.
**BEING LATE IS OKAY:** just show up and get settled! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.
Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild!
**WHAT SHOULD I BRING?**
Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you!
**OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:**
* **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space!
* **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels.
* **WIFI/OUTLETS:** Outlets are limited, so please ensure your devices are charged when you come! But Streetlight Guild does have free WiFi! Yay!
* **PARKING:** There is free public parking at Streetlight Guild.
Astra Rooftop
Hello everyone!
For our first dinner together, weโre keeping things low-key and casual. Take a look at the menu and let us know what you think we want this to be easy, relaxed, and enjoyable for everyone.
Quick housekeeping note: many restaurants require most of the party to be present before seating. No-shows impact the entire group, so if someone repeatedly commits and doesnโt show more than once, weโll have to remove you from future dinners to keep things fair and smooth for everyone.
Looking forward to a great night and even better conversations ๐ฝ๏ธโจ
