Clarity Begins in the Body — A Somatic Energy Workshop to Return to Flow
Clarity Begins in the Body — A Somatic Energy Workshop to Return to Flow
Most of us spend our lives in the *middle zone* — not exactly suffering, but not truly shining either. We carry a silent emotional overload that acts like a dimmer switch on our internal light. This workshop is designed to help you flip that switch back to **Bright**. Whether you're a busy professional or simply longing to feel better in your body and mind, this session is a space to recharge and elevate. **This is an experience.** Instead of just talking about wellness, we use somatic energy techniques to *physically* shift how you feel. By gently clearing emotional and mental residue from the system, we create space for clarity, ease, and natural flow. In this 90-minute session, you will: * **Identify and measure:** Gain a clear baseline of how you feel right now using the SUE scale. * **Experience somatic tapping:** A gentle, physical technique to clear away emotional noise and mental fog. * **Apply energy techniques:** Discover how to move energy through your system to restore flow. * **Witness your evolution:** See exactly how much your state of mind and body has evolved by the end of the session. * **Details:** * **When:** Sunday\, February 22nd \| 16:00 – 17:30 * **Where:** Hohlstrasse, 8004 Zürich * *(Full address will be shared with confirmed participants.)* * **Cost:** Free, donation-based community session to support the creation of future workshops. * *(Suggested donation: 15–25 CHF to cover space and materials.)* * **RSVP:** Limited to 10-12 participants to keep the atmosphere intimate and supportive. *Come as you are.* *Leave lighter, clearer, and more connected to yourself.* PS: Feel free to message me with any questions :)

Envision Feelings on Canvas: Your Safe Space in Color
Envision Feelings on Canvas: Your Safe Space in Color
[Tickets for this event are sold via eventfrog](https://eventfrog.ch/en/p/health-spirituality/wellness/envision-feelings-on-canvas-your-safe-space-in-color-7424100423378689785.html) Envision Feelings on Canvas is a guided, embodied workshop that invites participants to reconnect with a personal sense of safety and calm through meditation, gentle movement, and intuitive painting. The experience begins by slowing down. **Through soft breathing techniques, guided meditation, and intuitive movement, participants are gently supported in settling both body and mind into a meditative state**. From here, they are invited to imagine and explore an inner space where they feel grounded, safe, and at ease. This process encourages deep listening to the body and emotions, allowing thoughts, sensations, and feelings to naturally arise without judgment. From this calm, reflective state, **participants translate their inner experience onto canvas. With the guidance of an instructor, they are introduced to simple painting techniques and fundamental concepts of color, shape, and composition.** The focus is not on technical perfection, but on expression and intention, learning how visual elements can communicate emotion, mood, and atmosphere. No prior experience is needed. **You do not need to have painted or meditated before**. The entire process is gently guided step by step, and all necessary materials are provided. Participants are fully supported throughout the workshop. The result is a deeply personal artwork that becomes a visual anchor to this inner safe space. A painting you can return to at any time, using color and form as a reminder of calm, safety, and presence. **Each participant takes home their finished 30 × 40 cm canvas, a tangible reflection of their inner experience.** [Tickets for this event are sold via eventfrog](https://eventfrog.ch/en/p/health-spirituality/wellness/envision-feelings-on-canvas-your-safe-space-in-color-7424100423378689785.html)

COLD WATER PLUNGE - different location
COLD WATER PLUNGE - different location
Welcome cold lovers! We have been practising cold water plunges for over 4 years. We believe in the benefits of cold water exposure. The feeling you get after the swim is magnificent, it makes you feel alive. We have started this group to safely experience the cold water together. We motivate each other, do active warmup exercises, and also share our life stories with a warm coffee/tea afterwards. The event is every Sunday at 11:30, we meet this time at Savera-Areal, no matter the weather. Take along: a large towel, comfortable bathing suit, flip-flops, and warm clothes (hat, gloves, etc). If you’re planning swimming out take along a bright swim buoy. The event is Free. IMPORTANT: Every participant takes responsibility for themselves when attending this event. Before attempting cold water exposure, individuals with health conditions (e.g., heart problems or hypertension) should seek advice from a healthcare professional. Safely acclimating the body to cold temperatures requires preparation and gradual exposure.

Systemaufstellungs-Workshop
Systemaufstellungs-Workshop
Systemaufstellungen sind eine effektive, verblüffende und tiefwirkende Transformationsmethode. Sie ermöglichen Dir, emotionale Blockaden und Muster, die zwischen Dir und Deinen Zielen oder wichtigen Menschen in Deinem Leben stehen, zu fühlen, zu integrieren und zu verändern. Es eröffnet sich Dir ein neuer Zugang zu unmittelbaren Lösungen und neuen Handlungsmöglichkeiten. Dabei wird ein inneres, zuvor unbewusstes Bild eines bestimmten Themas in eine räumliche Darstellung übersetzt. Das heisst, dass Du andere Teilnehmer des Workshops aussuchst, die für die Aspekte oder Personen in Deinem Bild/System stehen. Für Dich und die Stellvertreter in Deinem System wird sichtbar und fühlbar, welche innere Dynamik in Dir wirkt in Bezug auf Dein Anliegen: Was oder wer hat einen zu grossen oder zu kleinen Einfluss in Deinem Leben? Welche Aspekte oder Personen behindern Deinen Fortschritt? Was oder wen gilt es zu verabschieden? Welche Menschen oder Elemente hast Du bisher als wichtige Wirkkraft übersehen? Was oder wen gilt es in Dein Leben zu integrieren? Durch gezielte Interventionen kannst Du in Deiner Aufstellung etwas verstehen, verändern, vergeben, loslassen, mehr Raum geben, was Dir vorher nicht möglich oder bewusst war. Du kannst auch kostenlos als reine/r Stellvertreter\*in am Workshop teilnehmen. mit eigener Aufstellung: CHF 295 Anmeldung unter: [https://rebekkathommen.ch/systemaufstellungen/](https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Frebekkathommen.ch%2Fsystemaufstellungen%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExeFp5djRkRTV4WlJyRkFJQ3NydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR41oZWs8M57v5mtUO9TOCbLPkd-urym6QDO2WRFTADshkuwShVMNNjw1SCUmQ_aem_GfAmqhS2OEnFVTsd1l6d2g&h=AT0gYdfrsOHiVcrv15AW3c8nHdSrRGdIO3H9U4JWGpQ-rXcUFwKwdVfw6E9Q0duQhNFPIGPGR07yZejie2BPrbPR7akdhYtCdNOcPMhunh5hyU2ZDU-NwS3Q3obKhukx7WC4TiOe6Q5QKopaw6ERtosPv8lp_Q&__tn__=q&c%5B0%5D=AT1UhW8U_iCz1vjVtRd8vFu1mgP7DoGjvwFKccMJzrNiKIgb6Q1zi3rXwWqrXTece3Muc7TYw3NBfbOz89dAb-o2rT6Y0eLRHAQnAxN8mJkD9gVIJbl8i9i38riw7BpawFmoaR_1Q8RHZRUdufqlJtawXBBLjT9-bYQ) Dauer: pro Aufstellung stehen max. 60min zur Verfügung.

Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit - Barret Blake
Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit - Barret Blake
**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** *Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit: From Intent to Implementation* Spec-driven development flips the traditional workflow on its head: instead of code being the source of truth, the specification becomes the backbone of design, collaboration, and delivery. In this session, we’ll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifacts—living documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification. You’ll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. We’ll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, we’ll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written. This talk will cover: --What spec-driven development is (and what it isn’t) --How GitHub Spec-Kit fits into modern developer workflows --Using specs to align product, engineering, and AI-assisted development --Real-world examples of turning specs into implementations with confidence Whether you’re building greenfield systems, integrating AI into your stack, or trying to reduce costly rework, spec-driven development offers a scalable way to move faster without sacrificing clarity. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns and a clear mental model for adopting GitHub Spec-Kit in their own projects. **YouTube Link** TBA

The summit will feature interactive and educational sessions led by thought leaders, technologists, policymakers, and advocates who are passionate about making AI fair, transparent, and beneficial for everyone. **Why Attend?** Learn about the legal and technical challenges with implementing AI solutions within your organization. Build better solutions while protecting your organization from legal and compliance risks. And learn how to think strategically about AI as a differentiation tool for your business.
