Totally normal—many people show up solo. We’ll make sure you meet a few people right away so you’re not standing around wondering what to do. 👯‍♀️ Bringing friends is always a great idea, and helps keep the group fun and social. ⏰ We usually get a good mix of people arriving within the first hour, so coming early helps you settle in and meet others easily. ⸻ ⚠️ Housekeeping: Please be respectful of everyone attending.

Co-creation Mondays are about reconnecting each of us with our own divinity and own inner creator, so we can live a more intentional life. That is exactly what we want. When we come together as a group, the energetic impact of this can magnify our intentions, and open us up to even greater inspiration for what we would like to have happen in life. These events are designed to allow for greater collaboration and connection within the conscious community and those adjacent to it while also empowering each individual to step more powerfully into their own life. No prior experience is needed for these events. Nor is any religious or spiritual affiliation, needed, though you will be guided based on what Chris has found to be true in his own studies of consciousness, spirituality, co-creation (sometimes called manifestation or law of attraction), various religions, and self improvement modalities. These events are currently by modest contribution (\~$15 is appreciated but bring or share as you can) to help support the space and keep a clean karmic energetic exchange. This is a karma-free event. There are also additional energy tools Chris uses to set the space before and after event, so that enhancement, inspiration, and alignment are what each participant walks away with. If this resonates, we hope to see you at an event soon! More people will be in attendance than on this RSVP. More than a dozen are at events. You will be in good company :) We begin on time. If you're running behind, quietly find an available seat if the meditation has begun. # **Agenda** #### **6:30pm: Doors Open** Arrive, grab a bottled water or sparkling water, meet others, and/or check out some of the books laid out related to metaphysics and intuition. #### **7pm: Intention-setting and Meditation** We start with brief introductions & intention setting then hop into a guided grounding meditation (about 12-15 min) #### **7:30pm: Intuitive Fun/Exploration** We will shift into a dynamic part of the evening when we do mini experiments in developing intuitive abilities. Previous times have included telekinesis, telepathy, energy healing, and practicing seeing/sensing the subtle energy body. #### **8pm: Social and Connection** Make new friends or enhance current relationships. This is a fun part of the evening where we can laugh and better know each other. Also a great time for inspiration and learning something new! #### **8:30pm: Parting Ways** At 8:30pm, we gather for a quick karma clearing exercise (takes 90 seconds) and then people head out. Sometimes people stick around a bit longer. Sometimes there's an invite to get food or go to another place. But it's a nice send off til we see each other again!

We’re making sun catcher wind chimes! $10 per person & includes a beverage. Come by or sign up on website.

​
We’re a safe, friendly, inclusive, and diverse group. New players are always welcome — we’re happy to teach games and help you find a table.
​
🕕 Games start at 6:00 pm and go until 10:00 pm.
​
📅 First meetup: Monday, March 9. This is a pilot, so potentially every other Monday after that!
​
📍The Secret Lantern Books and Games in Cedar Park. Housed in a former bank, this shop is now the very definition of “cozy.” Think comfy upholstered furniture, warm lighting, and tucked-away corners, perfect for settling into a long game. And yes — there’s a Vault Room, complete with massive steel door and spinning wheel handle, now reborn as one of the coolest places around to plot your next heist— err, move.
​
⏰ Good to know:
• You’re welcome to arrive earlier to hang out or play, but games will definitely start at 6:00 pm.
• The store opens at 10:00 am — if you want to make a whole game day of it, leave a comment!
• Coffee drinks and light food are available for purchase at the store — please support our host venue.
​
🎲 What to bring:
• Your favorite board games (optional)
• Or just bring yourself — there’s always room to join in
​
Whether you’re brand new to board games or a seasoned player, come roll some dice, learn something new, and enjoy a great Monday night with awesome people.

Come join us for a fun night out with drinks, dinner and new friends! We’ll hangout, watch sports, play games, converse and have a great time. Feel free to bring your friends with you and we’ll see you there!

Join us for this free, in person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Do you want more motivation and confidence to build lasting relationships? Are you 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 held at the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

Meet at Wolfe Park parking lot by tennis courts. We willl walk along Alum Creek trail, through Jeffrey Mansion Park then along Bexley neighborhood and back. Optional lunch at Trolley District.
