Whether this is your first time, or you're an 'old timer' - you'll be welcomed to **a circle of men, physically sitting together** in our large, central London room, where we can *'hang out, be heard and get real'* together. Our **short animation** video says it all [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfQjsxSySFg&t=4s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfQjsxSySFg&t=4s) Do you sometimes feel like you lack **purpose, passion and sense of belonging?** MenSpeak men's groups is a place to explore who you really are, who you no longer need to be, and **how to lead a better, fuller life.** We share what's going on for us, we listen to and learn from one another's experiences, we celebrate life and grow together as **we share our experiences, thoughts and feelings** beyond our masks. This is a place where you can grow in authenticity; a place **without a pecking order, judgement, blame, or shame.** Many men sadly turn to self-abuse such as, **self-judgement and over-thinking, drink, drugs, unhealthy computer use and unhealthy relationships** as a way of coping. Johann Hari said, *“The opposite of addiction is not sobriety; the opposite of addiction is connection. Men's groups provide the social medicine men need."* **We** **support one another to be better, more authentic men, without telling each other what to do or how to be**. There is no pressure and it’s fine to say "Pass” when it’s your turn to speak. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-rSTNjcXzE](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-rSTNjcXzE) We are **accepting, accountable and we want more out of life**. We acknowledge who we’ve been and we **test drive who we want to be, taking the best of ourselves out** into the world.

Our topic this week for our Global Class is: **Self-Love.** The process is a deep experience of connecting with our inner world, our own self-love through the cave of our heart. Deep within the cave of the heart we can connect with our intrinsic worthiness and ALL that IS. This is not an experience for the head, not for understanding, our heads go under our arm, so-to-speak and we go on a deep meditation journey. I would like to invite you to join us this coming Sunday morning at 10.30am for our FREE weekly online global class, where a discourse and guided meditation will be facilitated by myself. This class is hosted by the Cosmosis™ Mentoring Centre. This week there is the opportunity to surrender to a deeper experience of self-love and healing. A simple introduction to how our love truly does come from within. To attend please EMAIL: admin@mysteryschool.net.au Simply Share: Hello my name is ____________________. I will be attending the free online Global Class on Sunday @ 10. 30am UK time. I look forward to receiving the login details. I live in ___________ (city, country). If different (and applicable) the name on my Microsoft Teams Account is ______________________________________________.

Ticket is needed in order to attend this event: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/womens-circle-living-in-harmony-with-your-menstrual-cycle-tickets-1977767143767?aff=oddtdtcreator ## Overview Are you longing for deeper connections with other women who are on a path of self-discovery and growth? Join us for a women's circle! Join us for a gentle and nurturing **Women’s Circle:** a sacred, heart-led space for women who want to go deeper. Every month, we gather to explore themes around **spirituality, feminine embodiment, self-discovery and personal growth**. Each circle centers around a unique topic: from **feminine energy, intuition, boundaries**, and **embodiment** to **self-worth, healing** or **emotional expression** but the intention remains the same: 💗 To create a space for authentic connection, inner reflection, and collective wisdom 💗 To be seen, heard and held without judgment or pressure to be anything but yourself 🌙 **This Month’s Theme: Living in Harmony with Your Menstrual Cycle** Modern life often asks us to show up the same way every day: productive, available and high-energy without honoring the natural peaks and dips of the female cycle. Many women feel exhausted, disconnected or frustrated simply because they are living out of sync with their cyclical nature. In this circle, we’ll explore the wisdom of the menstrual cycle and how each phase carries its own energy, needs and gifts. We’ll share on how we currently move through our cycle, reflect on where we push or override our body's signals and focus on how we can begin to work with this energy rather than against it in everyday life. This circle is a space to soften, listen and remember that you are not meant to be the same every day. Your cyclical nature is not a weakness! It is a profound source of power, intuition and self-trust, but we just need to learn how to work with it. ### ✨ What to Expect: * A grounding **meditation & breathwork** to help you arrive in the moment * A short **introduction to the theme** of the circle * **Mindful exercises** to reflect, feel and reconnect * A **safe, supportive sharing circle** * A closing **visualisation, affirmation & oracle cards** * Warm, soul-led connection with other women walking the path of self-discovery * Optional social afterwards where you can continue connection with others ### 🌀 Why this Circle was Born: “I created this circle because I craved **soulful, nourishing connection** with other women: spaces where we could go deeper than small talk and share from the heart. If you feel that same longing: for truth, presence, sisterhood, then this circle is for you.” ### 🌸 Why Women’s Circles Matter: Female connection is not just emotionally enriching—it’s also *biologically essential*. Research shows that when women gather in safe, supportive spaces, they release **oxytocin**—the bonding hormone—which helps lower stress, build trust, and boost emotional resilience. Strong female friendships and emotional expression are linked to: * Reduced anxiety and depression * Better heart and immune health * A longer, more joyful life In times of stress, women are wired for a “**tend-and-befriend**” response, **we heal in connection**. 📍 **WHERE:** Blackwell House, King's Square Community Centre ### 💫 What to Bring: * An open heart * A journal & pen Let’s sit together, soften, and reconnect with our inner power—**not through doing, but through being.** 🔗 Stay Connected: Join my WhatsApp community to stay in the loop about future circles & classes: 👉 [Click to join](https://chat.whatsapp.com/JSwy4GT3zeM8ywHHR931A1 "https://chat.whatsapp.com/JSwy4GT3zeM8ywHHR931A1") 📸 **Click to follow me on Instagram for more:** [aga.tokarskaa](https://www.instagram.com/aga.tokarskaa?igsh=MTUzOGtkdjhoOHkweA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr "https://www.instagram.com/aga.tokarskaa?igsh=MTUzOGtkdjhoOHkweA%3D%3D&utm_source=qr") **About me:** Aga is a **yoga teacher and transformational life coach** devoted to guiding others on the journey from overwhelm to inner peace. Her work supports those with busy, overthinking minds in **creating calm, clarity and confidence:** one breath, one choice, one breakthrough at a time. With her North Node in Scorpio, Aga's soul mission is **all about transformation: letting go of control, trusting the unknown and living from deep inner truth rather than external expectations.** After leaving behind a structured corporate path, she committed to creating a life led by intuition, embodiment and spiritual growth. Her journey has taught her to embrace change, follow the soul’s whispers and live from a place of empowered surrender. Through her women’s circles, Aroma Yoga sessions and coaching, Aga now holds space for others to do the same: to remember who they truly are, reconnect with their inner power, and create lives rooted in **freedom, authenticity and feminine wisdom.**

In this live and in-person seminar you will have an opportunity to explore how you could possibly improve YOUR self-confidence. How does a lack of confidence affect you?

This seminar is geared toward you. Come and discover what could be a real boost for you! Personal interviews are offered and personal recommendations can be made to assist you in life. The seminar is presented to you by an experienced life improvement consultant from the Church of Scientology London. All references are taken from the works of L Ron Hubbard.

**Finding Meaning in Life’s Difficulties (Free Event)** **Is there hidden value in the difficulties and hardships of life, or are these things just to try to get past as quickly as possible? If so, how can we emerge from the current world crisis we are facing as stronger, more resilient individuals and communities?** **When we look at the difficult moments of our lives, aren’t those often the times when we grew the most? So many valuable lessons in life and growth opportunities are hard-won, often coming out of these trying moments. So why are we so focused on avoiding these difficulties? From this perspective, how would we as individuals and as a society confront the inevitable struggles we will be faced with? How can we build stronger communities that ensure not only that we don’t have to face struggles alone, but that we as individuals will emerge stronger as well?** **Come join a different kind of conversation – one that welcomes every perspective in a search for the truths that unite us all – as we discuss the spiritual perspective offered by the Bahá’í Teachings on the opportunity for growth during times of struggle. Join us for a lively discussion as we reflect on the meaning of the struggles of life and explore the true nature of progress.** **“The troubles of this world pass and what we have left is what we have made of our souls.” – Bahá’í Teachings** **\*\*\* This event is free and open to all regardless of background or belief. Donations will not be accepted.**

**Join globally respected cardiologist , Dr. Mohit Gupta, as we explore how our thoughts impact our physical health and overall well-being.** Our thoughts are far more powerful than we often realize. A single thought has the capacity to influence our emotions, shape our health, strengthen or strain our relationships, and quietly guide the course of our lives. The Power of One Thought is an insightful session that explores how conscious and intentional thinking impacts the brain, heart, and overall well-being. Through a thoughtful blend of scientific evidence and meditative practice, participants will gain a deeper understanding of how thought patterns influence stress, emotional resilience, mental clarity, and long-term health. In this session, Dr. Mohit Gupta seamlessly integrates modern neuroscience and cardiology with the wisdom of Raj Yoga meditation, offering practical insights into emotional regulation, cardiovascular health, and the slowing of biological aging. He uses his own life stories of Belief and Resilience. The experience is designed to be reflective, engaging, and immediately applicable to both personal and professional life. This session is ideal for individuals seeking inner clarity, emotional balance, and a deeper understanding of how one consciously chosen thought can create lasting transformation. **About Dr. Mohit Gupta** *Dr. Mohit Dayal Gupta, MD, DM, FACC, FRCP, is a globally respected interventional cardiologist and Director–Professor of Cardiology at GB Pant Hospital, New Delhi, and serves as Cardiologist to the Parliament of India.
