Science Meets Mindfulness – From Anger to Compassion
**Pause. Sense. Feel. Transform.**
**Anger, rage, and frustration are part of being human. Yet when left unchecked, they can hijack our nervous system, cloud communication, and strain our relationships.**
**This two-part experiential workshop series offers a grounded, science based path to meeting anger with awareness; and transforming it into clarity, empathy, and compassion.**
**Blending neuroscience, mindfulness practices, embodied movement, and mindful communication tools, we explore how anger affects the body and brain; and how it can become a powerful gateway to self understanding and deeper connection with others.**
**Through guided meditation, reflective journaling, gentle movement, visualisation, pair and group exercises, you’ll learn how to rechannel stress, regulate your nervous system, and engage with conflict in a more conscious and compassionate way.**
**Part 1: Rechanneling Stress and Understanding Our Needs**
**We all experience anger and frustration, when we feel disrespected, unheard, or blocked from reaching our goals. These emotions can feel overwhelming and have a strong impact on our nervous system and well-being. How can we navigate these moments without being overtaken by them?**
**In this first workshop, we focus on understanding anger from the inside out. We explore how emotional hijacking and chronic stress work in the brain and body, and how our internal narratives and unmet needs fuel reactive patterns. With curiosity**
**and compassion, we begin to transform anger into self-awareness and self-care.**
**You’ll explore:**
**● The neuroscience of anger, rage, stress response, and emotional hijacking**
**● How bodily sensations and internal narratives shape anger**
**● Identifying the feelings and unmet needs behind frustration**
**● How to rechannel anger through breath, visualisation, and gentle movement**
**● Using mindful self-talk and mantras to express needs**
**● Cultivating self-compassion as a foundation for clarity and regulation**
**The Mindful BAse x Villa Vida**
**Where science meets mindfulness – for awareness, connection, and community.**
**At The Mindful BAse, we believe that mindfulness is not only a personal practice, but also a powerful way to strengthen relationships, communities, and our connection with our environment. Founded in Vienna in 2025, our mission is simple: to bring people together,**
**foster well-being, and cultivate a community rooted in awareness, kindness, compassion and**
**respect.**
**Through our collaboration with Villa Vida, we are excited to present a series of science-based mindfulness workshops designed to encourage meaningful dialogue, nurture learning and reflection for supporting the local queer community. We create spaces where**
**ancient practices meet modern insights, offering sessions that combine yoga, meditation, neuroscience, communication tools in a safe, inclusive and inspiring space. Each workshop invites you to slow down, connect, and learn practical ways to care for yourself and others – grounded in both science and lived experience.**
**All identities, bodies, and levels of experience are welcome.**

Hiking Trip from Vienna
**Hiking trip to Mödling**
❗️Even if Meetup shows the event as full, please still join the WA group and fill out the registration form. The form will indicate whether there are still spots available for the hike❗️
Join the WA group for the information: https://chat.whatsapp.com/GqWhKBUCR5RAhI6WUguIcR?mode=gi_t
——————
This time we’re heading just outside Vienna for a beautiful hike in the Mödling area 🌿
It’s a scenic circular route (around 8 km) with gentle elevation, so overall very manageable, but still active enough to feel like a proper hike.
Along the way, we’ll have:
* beautiful forest and hill views
* a viewpoint from a tower with a view over the aqueduct
* and we’ll also see the Liechtenstein Castle 🏰
So it’s one of those routes where you get a bit of everything — nature, views, and some really nice photo spots 📸
**Route details:**
* distance: ~8 km
* elevation: ~200 m up & down
* walking time: around 2.5-3 hours
We’ll go at a comfortable pace, with time to enjoy the views, take photos, and just have a nice day together.
**Participation**
€8 organizational fee
(does **not** include the train ticket)
In case of bad weather conditions the trip will be postponed to 26.04.

UX Vienna Evening Meetup
UX Vienna Evening Meetups are on the 2nd tuesday of every month — 12 times a year. We’re excited to invite you to the next **UX Vienna Evening Meetup** – an evening of inspiring talks, interesting perspectives and community exchange.
We’re diving into two distinct sides of the industry:
the high-stakes world of healthcare and the messy, but hopefully rewarding journey of building your own tools.
**UX in Healthcare**
by **[Leandro Albino De Oliveira](https://www.linkedin.com/in/leandro-oliveira-uxdesigner/)**, UX Chapter Lead at Roche
Leandro will be diving into the unique challenges and trends shaping the current landscape of UX within the healthcare sector.
**GoGoGolor – a bloody Vibecode project**
by **[Wieland Kloimstein](https://www.linkedin.com/in/wieland-kloimstein/)**, UX Designer, ImmoScout24
In 2014 I had an idea for a better color picker. Then it sat in a drawer for 10 years.
Two things changed that: OKLCH — a new perceptual color standard — and LLMs that could actually help build it.
A UX designer with no coding background ended up building something he had no business building.
**Location**
**[mySugr/Roche](https://www.mysugr.com/de/uber-uns)**
Trattnerhof 1/5.OG, 1010 Vienna, Austria
When you enter via the front door, take the elevator to the **5th floor**.
**Important note:** once inside the office space, please stay—if you leave early or arrive (very) late, there’s no way to ring the bell or be let back in. There is no reception or security desk.
**Don’t miss out on these insights.**

Driving Success with Agentic AI for Software Development Discussion
Join us for an engaging panel discussion on **AI Agentic Coding** and how autonomous AI systems are transforming the way software is built. Experts in AI, software engineering, and developer tools will share insights on how agentic AI—systems that can plan, reason, and execute coding tasks—is reshaping modern development workflows.
The discussion will cover topics such as AI-assisted development, productivity gains, challenges around reliability and governance, and what the future of software engineering may look like with AI agents as collaborators. Whether you’re a developer, tech leader, or AI enthusiast, this session is a great opportunity to learn, ask questions, and explore how agentic AI is redefining coding
Prompt vs. Paintbrush
AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s?
This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation?
We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee.
Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.

What If Your AI Could Be a Team? - Chad Green

You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise.
We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration.
Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team.
