**✈5D4N Cebu->Oslob->Moalboal->Bohol Tour / Canyoneering / Island Hopping / Hiking /Sightseeing & Relaxing!!** **Date: 25 Feb- 1 Mar 2026 (Wed-Sun)** **◾INTERESTED, RSVP in MEETUP/WHATAPP +94884478 WILFRED!!** **[https://www.meetup.com/lets-go-travelling-hiking/events/311733205/](https://www.meetup.com/lets-go-travelling-hiking/events/311733205/)** **◾BEST WEATHER TO GO (NOV- APR, DRY SEASON):** The Philippines is a beautiful country with a tropical climate, and the best time to visit is the dry season, which runs from November to April. This period offers sunny weather and less chance of rain, making it ideal for beach activities, island hopping and exploring outdoor attractions. **◾Is Cebu, Philippines** **Worth Visiting?** Cebu is one of the most popular destinations in the Philippines with so much to offer from **amazing beaches to endless waterfalls**. Cebu City is a giant metropolis but all of the best things to do in Cebu are by the coast or in the mountains. * Moalboal Cebu Island Hopping and Leisure Hikes * Cebu City with Simala Shrine. * Whale Shark Encounter, Sumilon Sandbar, and Canyoneering in Kawasan Falls. * **◾EVENT HIGHLIGHTS:** **✓Kawasan Fall Canyoneering** is a thrilling experience that involves trekking and exploring the dense forest and jumping off cliffs from 7, 10, and 14 meters into the turquoise waters It’s all pretty safe too, guides watch out for the dangerous points, and everyone must wear helmets/life vests. **✓Whaleshark Encounter** is the most popular activity in Oslob. Getting up-close to swim and sea-selfie with the whale sharks is a bucket list worthy experience. Even though whale sharks are the biggest fish in the ocean that can grow up to 32ft and weigh 200 tonnes, they are very humble creatures and there’s nothing to be afraid of. Whale sharks are filter feeders which means they swim with their mouth wide open when feeding on plankton and other small fish **✓Moalboal Island Hopping** involves exploring the colorful marine wildlife and get the chance to witness the majestic sea turtles!

This is a free, in-person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
