Klang ist Schwingung – und Schwingung ist etwas, das unser Körper nicht nur hören, sondern auch fühlen kann. Während eines Sound Baths breiten sich die Frequenzen von Instrumenten wie Klangschalen, Trommeln und Zimbeln durch die Luft aus und werden sowohl von unseren Ohren als auch vom Körper wahrgenommen. Forschungen deuten darauf hin, dass intensive Klangerfahrungen das parasympathische Nervensystem – unseren „Ruhe- und Regenerationsmodus“ – aktivieren, die Herzfrequenz senken und Gehirnwellen fördern können, die mit Entspannung und Meditation in Verbindung stehen. Da der menschliche Körper zu einem grossen Teil aus Wasser besteht, können Klangschwingungen im ganzen Körper spürbar werden und ein tiefes Gefühl von Ruhe, Präsenz und Verbundenheit schaffen. Nur eine Stunde, um zu entschleunigen, das Nervensystem zu regulieren und von innen heraus zu regenerieren.

During a sound bath, the frequencies produced by instruments such as singing bowls, drums, and chimes travel through the air and are perceived by both the ears and the body. Research suggests that immersive sound experiences can help activate the parasympathetic nervous system (the body's "rest and digest" state), slow the heart rate, and encourage brainwave activity associated with relaxation and meditation. Because the human body is composed largely of water, sound vibrations can be felt throughout the body, creating a deeply embodied experience of rest and presence. Just one hour to slow down, reset the nervous system, and restore from within.

Description 呼七盘八 (Hū Qī Pán Bā) is a rhythmic breathwork method rooted in traditional Daoist breathing practice. The name refers to a specific inhale-exhale ratio pattern (exhale in 7 counts, circulate in 8) designed to stimulate the body's natural energy circulation and bring the nervous system into a state of deep rest and renewal. In this guided session, you will be introduced to the foundational breathing sequence, practiced lying or seated in a comfortable position. Many participants report a profound sense of calm, tingling warmth, or emotional release during and after the practice. No special equipment or prior breathing practice is needed — just curiosity and a willingness to be still. What to expect * Introduction to the 呼七盘八 breathing sequence * Guided full-session breathwork practice (lying or seated) * Integration time and group sharing

A 1:1 Reiki journey where you receive focused healing, intuitive guidance, and space to reconnect with your inner flow. Discover more about me and my work on: https://thebecomingfield.com/

Sundays, 2pm-3pm. Trial class: CHF 20 Drop-in: CHF 35 Book here: www.balancewithale.com/zurich/handstand "I'll never be able to handstand". You kick at the wall but see no progress. Your wrists hurt. You don't know how to improve... It doesn't have to be this way. Progress doesn't come from trying harder — it comes from practicing smarter. Handstands are a skill, and when you train them as such, they begin to click in a way that feels almost magical. This class builds the foundations (strength, alignment and technique) that make handstands feel achievable and fun. Through clear progressions and personalized drills, you'll discover how capable your body truly is, and how handstands start to feel within reach when you train with intention and support. Because drills are tailored to you, the class welcomes all levels — from "I've never kicked up before" to confident freestanding balancers who want to develop greater control.

Sleep, Rest & Connection: Building Our Community Together Join us for the next gathering of The Pause Collective — a supportive meetup for neurodivergent women navigating perimenopause, menopause, burnout, overwhelm, and life transitions. Since many of us haven't yet had the opportunity to meet, we'll begin by getting to know one another and sharing what brought us to this community. We'll also explore one of the most common challenges many women experience during this season of life: sleep. Whether you're navigating insomnia, waking up in the middle of the night, racing thoughts, night sweats, exhaustion, burnout, or simply not feeling rested, you're not alone. This will be a relaxed, low-pressure coffee shop meetup focused on connection and conversation. No need to prepare anything. No pressure to share. Come as you are. Together we'll: • Introduce ourselves and get to know one another • Share what brought us to The Pause Collective • Discuss sleep, rest, and energy during perimenopause and menopause • Exchange ideas, experiences, and support • Explore what topics we'd like to discuss in future gatherings • Continue building the kind of community we'd like to create together This space is neurodivergent-affirming, self-diagnosis-friendly, and supportive of different communication styles and energy levels. Quiet participation is welcome. Listening is participating. Whether you're looking for support, learning, friendship, or simply a place where you don't have to explain yourself, you are welcome here. I look forward to meeting you. — Dawn
