Blue Lotus Ceremony: Transition into the second half of life
Blue Lotus Ceremony
Transition into the Second Half of Life
We invite you to an evening ceremony for women who are tired of constant rushing, endless analysis of the past, and searching for reasons for what is happening outside of themselves.
Sometimes, to feel at peace with yourself and experience satisfaction with life, all it takes is a few quiet minutes alone with your feelings.
Our Lotus Ceremony is a deep transformative space created to help you slow down, return your attention to yourself, and hear what is usually drowned out by the noise of everyday life.
During the ceremony we will work with attention, breathing, and inner observation.
The blue lotus infusion helps relax the body and gently deepen a state of presence.
A guided meditation will allow you to step out of the usual stream of thoughts and meet your feelings without analysis or the need to fix anything.
The sound of singing bowls supports concentration and creates an atmosphere where it is easier to stay connected with yourself.
This is a space where you can simply be, listen, and allow clarity to emerge naturally.
Program
19:00 — Arrival
A quiet entry into the space and time to shift from the outer rhythm of the day to a more inward focus.
19:15 — Introduction and intention circle
A brief introduction to the theme of the evening and an opportunity to set a personal intention.
19:30 — Lotus ceremony
Mindful sharing of the lotus infusion and a gentle deepening of inner awareness.
19:45 — Guided meditation
A practice of inner observation and staying present with your feelings.
20:30 — Closing the circle
A calm completion of the evening and a gradual return to everyday awareness.

Practical Philosophy Meetup - Copenhagen 🇩🇰
**🏛️ 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/CRqdyO6p6lZDIN2qVRIlWX), 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:
* 19:00-19:15 - People arrive and chat, get to know each other before the ‘official' start.
* 19:15-19:25 - 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.
* 19:25-20:45 - 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.
* 20:45-21:00 - Bring everyone back together to discuss conclusions of the topic - each group gives a short 1-minute summary. Organizer concludes the meeting and everyone takes a group photo.
* 21:00 - The official meeting is over but it’s a great opportunity to get to know people in a non-structured environment, so we often stick around, chat, and get to know each other.
**🧧PRICING?**
Practical Philosophy Club is FREE to attend! We just ask that if we are meeting in a café, buy a beverage! Some chapters rent a space for us to meet, and they may ask for donations to help contribute to the cost of rent. Donations will always be 100% voluntary though!
**💛 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/CRqdyO6p6lZDIN2qVRIlWX).
* 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 15 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/CRqdyO6p6lZDIN2qVRIlWX) 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! 🗺️

Every Wednesday SILVERS Dinner: Creating Change with Jacqui
Tickets here: [www.thesilvers.dk](www.thesilvers.dk)
We have started a movement in Copenhagen of weekly dinners (on a Wednesday) hosted by the senior generation in their own homes.
Seniors with 60+ years of life experience who are community leaders, intellectuals, artists, storytellers, and want to share their experience over dinners for a small group each time.
Every Wednesday there is dinner hosted by a different Silver (senior host) who will open their front door, welcome a group of 5-8 curious people into their home (all ages), and share their stories, knowledge, and connections across the table over a themed evening.
Each host chooses their own theme and it is the aim to pass on their hard-earned knowledge.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
This week the host is: Jacqui!
Jacqui has spent her life studying one thing: how to make people change. For more than 30 years she worked across the world to change behaviour around health, equality, and social norms: with communities and governments across Africa, Asia, and Europe.
She now lives in an old iconic Christianshavn house — the one that gave Lagkagehuset its name! — where she opens her home for this Silvers Dinner.
Over a homemade meal, Jacqui will share stories from inside social change: how to change the world and why changing ourselves is often harder than changing the world.
An evening of good food, sharp insight, and honest conversation, and new people!
Every Wednesday SILVERS Dinner: A life in the province with Birgitte
This week the host is: Birgitte!
Birgitte has spent her life trying to make things happen. She leads with drive and initiative, turning ideas into reality wherever she goes.
She was the first in her family to attend high school, then university, where she studied music and was introduced to the opera stage. This led to many years on stage as an opera singer in Germany, Denmark and Sweden.
Later Birgitte chose a different kind of life. She left Copenhagen for Falster, attracted by the idea of community, closeness and building something of her own. There she bought an old missionary house and turned it into a small concert hall where she now hosts performances of the music she loves - modern music, chamber music and jazz.
An evening of good food, sharp insight, and honest conversation, and new people!

The Philosophy of HAPPINESS (!) — From Buddha to Brain Scans! We will explore...
**“The Philosophy of Happiness (!) — From Buddha to Brain Scans”**
Meaning, Pleasure, Discipline, Faith, and What It Means to Live Well
Everyone wants to be happy—but no one seems to agree on what that actually means. Is happiness inner peace or external success? Pleasure or purpose? Detachment, discipline, faith, or self-optimization? Across history, cultures, and now science, radically different answers compete for our attention.
This isn’t a self-help workshop or a mindfulness class. It’s a philosophical conversation about happiness as an idea, a practice, and a social goal.
***
**Topics we’ll touch on:**
* Buddha and the end of suffering: desire, attachment, and liberation
* Stoicism: control, resilience, and emotional discipline
* Hedonism: pleasure, limits, and whether “more” ever satisfies
* Religion and happiness: salvation, meaning, and transcendence
* Modern self-help: empowerment, illusion, or coping strategy?
* What does science say? Brains, dopamine, habits, and well-being data
* Can a society be “happy”—and should happiness be a political goal?
* And finally… is happiness something to pursue, cultivate, accept—or stop chasing altogether?
Casual discussion. No philosophical or scientific background required—just curiosity and lived experience. Whether you feel content, restless, skeptical, or searching—you’re not alone.
Let’s explore happiness not as a slogan—but as one of humanity’s oldest and hardest questions.
Personal development discussion: 3 topics to choose, topics in description
ENG
The topics we will vote to discuss are Emotional presence / mindfulness, Apathy / indifference and Emotional saturation.
1 emotion topics and 2 personal challenges topic to vote for discussion.
We will try as a group of random people to sit down and talk about emotions or personal challenges. Not necessarily to find a solution or an improvement, but to share perspectives and maybe discover new perspectives.
Some people like to talk, some like to listen, at the start of each event, declare if you would prefer to participate in the discussion or prefer to listen in and chime in with an occasional question.
If only danish speaking people are coming we will speak danish, if there are non danish speaking people coming we will speak English.
DK
De fag vi skal stemme om at diskutere er Følelsesmæssig tilstedeværelse / mindfulness, Apati / ligegyldighed og Følelsesmæssig mætning.
1 følelse fag og 2 personlige udfordringer fag at stemme mellem at diskutere.
Vi skal prøve som en gruppe af tilfældigvis folk at tale om følelser eller personlige udfordringer. Ikke nødvendigvis før at finde løsning eller en forbedring, men før at dele perspektiv og måske finde nye perspektiv.
Nogle personer kan lide at tale, nogle personer kan lide at lytte, I begyndelsen af hver diskussion, erklære hvis du vil deltage I diskussionen eller lytte og komme med nogle spørgsmål under diskussionen.
Hvis det er kun dansktalende der kommer så snakker vi dansk, kommer det ikke dansktalende så snakker vi engelsk.

Grava, Dying Hydra - sludge/stoner/doom
GRAVA plays crushingly heavy and atmospheric sludge metal, where abysmally heavy riffs, pulsating bass, and apocalyptic drums collide with two raw vocal styles.
DYING HYDRA is a three-headed giant that has risen from the Copenhagen underground. This heavy and explosive trio aims to paralyze the masses with their distorted, gritty, and epic take on sludge/stoner/doom metal.

Meditation Beyond the Mind–A Direct Experience (+free authentic oriental food)
What happens when the mind becomes quiet enough to reveal something deeper?
In this session we explore meditation not just as a technique, but as an experience. When the usual mental activity slows down, many people discover a surprising sense of clarity, stillness, and awareness that feels very different from ordinary thinking.
This evening is designed to let you explore that shift directly. Rather than focusing on theory, the emphasis is on experiencing what becomes possible when attention turns inward and the mind settles.
If you are curious about what meditation can reveal beyond relaxation or concentration, this session invites you to explore it for yourself.
Come with curiosity — the experience will speak for itself.
After the event, authentic oriental cuisine will be served free of charge for up to 10 participants. Participants are invited to stay, enjoy dinner, and continue the conversation in a relaxed atmosphere.
Please sign up only if you plan to attend. We organize the event and prepare dinner based on the number of participants. If you are unable to come, please cancel your registration as soon as possible so someone else can sign up.
IMPORTANT:
Please bring something comfortable to sit on for meditation.
A yoga mat, a cushion to sit on, and pillows or support for your knees can make sitting on the floor much more comfortable. Bring whatever helps you sit relaxed for a longer time. If sitting on the floor is difficult for you, chairs will also be available.

Conquer Negative Emotion To Have a Happier Life!
Do you want more Self Confidence, less Self Doubt, more Happiness, less Anxiety, and more Love? This event is an introduction to how to handle irrational emotion. How often are yours or another's emotions out of control? What is that about??? I have asked these questions and after much search have found answers and am sharing.
Maybe you have suffered a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? After that, you try to move on but you just can't. Possibly you have a thought or emotion that hangs around for days and you just can't shake it. What is all this stress, anxiety, depression, and self doubt? It's just crazy! It's not the real you. You can find out what is at the root of all this.
This is a local event.
Areas you can change with the right information:
* Control of unwanted emotions
* Lack of confidence
* Grief
* Anxiety
* Anger management
* Creating ideal relationships
* Memory
* and more...

Walk & Talk About Life's Big Questions
[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations.
If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!).
**HOW IT WORKS**
**Step 1: Bring a topic**
Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event.
**Step 2: Circle up & share**
We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds.
**Step 3: Walk, talk & float**
We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!"
**Step 4: Feel more alive**
Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times.

**HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC**
A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about.
Recent topics include:
* "What are you passionate about right now?"
* "What makes a good friend?"
* "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?"
* "How do you want to be remembered?"
* "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?"
Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter.
**WHAT TO EXPECT**
This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.*
But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here.
