**About the Session - Morning Softness.** *A gentle Christmas Eve meditation to help you begin the day slowly, kindly, and supported.* Before the energy of Christmas Eve begins to build, take an hour to land softly in your body. This session is especially supportive if you’re spending the day quietly, feeling tender, overwhelmed, or simply wanting a moment of calm at the start of a full season. We’ll be lying on the grass beneath the morning sky, letting stillness, breath, and nature unwind the body. **This session is designed to help you:** • Arrive in your body with softness and presence. • Let the intensity of the season settle and loosen. • Calm and balance your nervous system. • Feel grounded, held, and supported. • Begin Christmas Eve from a place of steadiness and inner warmth. **The Meditation session:** **We’ll begin with Yoga Nidra,** a guided deep rest practice where you simply lie down and allow your body to soften. There is nothing to perform or achieve. Once you’re comfortable, staying as still as possible helps the nervous system drop into deeper rest. I will guide your awareness slowly through the body so your mind can drift, unwind, and settle. **From there, we move into a gentle visual meditation themed around the softness of a summer morning.** This journey uses warm light, dissolving heat, and soothing imagery to help you release stress, calm emotional noise, and feel quietly held by the morning air. The practice is deeply restorative, and designed for anyone who needs a gentle place to land. **No experience is needed,** this is beginner-friendly, and completely guided from start to finish. **“Sometimes the most important thing in a whole day is the rest we take between two deep breaths.”** - *Etty Hillesum, writer and diarist.* **When & Where:** 🗓 **Christmas Eve - Tuesday 24 December** ⏰ **10:00am - 11:00am** 📍 **Edinburgh Gardens, Fitzroy North** We’ll set up on the grass behind the Rotunda - look for my yoga mat and a Large pink sign that says “Free Guided Meditation.” **Weather notes.** This is an outdoor session. If the weather turns rainy, I’ll update the event listing beforehand - please check the meetup event before to make sure it's still going ahead. Summer mornings are usually nice, but Melbourne likes to surprise us. **What to bring:** • Yoga mat or something to lie on. • Light blanket. • Eye covering or small pillow if you enjoy extra comfort. • Water. • Comfortable clothing. \- If you forget a mat\, I’ll have a few spares on hand\. 😊 **Arriving and running late.** Arriving a few minutes early helps you settle in, get comfortable, and ease into the space before we begin. However if you’re running late, please come anyway 😊 - just join quietly, you won’t disturb anything. **Everyone is Welcome.** Whether you’re spending Christmas Eve alone, with family, feeling reflective, or simply wanting a quiet moment, this space is for you. A warm, gentle morning to rest, breathe, and begin the day softly. **I look forward to sharing the morning with you 🌿✨😊** **Kathy.**

The Philosophy behind the OM practice is one that we can use as a map in all of our relationships, to develop deeper levels of intimacy, connection and flow.

Every OM is set up the same way so participants can stop thinking and instead follow the feeling, listen to their bodies, and be present. OM Practitioner Training is the perfect way to learn the basics of OM and the philosophy behind the practice, which you can map over any area of your life where there’s connection involved. Once having completed the training you will have access to practitioners world-wide, to continue your OM journey where ever you travel. * OM TRAINING IS FOR BOTH SINGLES AND COUPLES EXPECT FROM TRAINING: ⚑ An introductory to OM philosophy - a way to live in flow state, fueled by desire and in connection. ⚑ The difference between climax and orgasm ⚑ An understanding of what is required for the body to enter into The Orgasmic State ⚑ Techniques to move your attention from your head to your body ⚑ Skills to increase sensation in your body ⚑ Female anatomy and how to find "the spot" ⚑ The Steps to OM ⚑ Stroking technique ⚑ How to ask for what you want, from the voice of your desire HOW IT WORKS: • Sessions 1 & 2: OM Philosophy & The OM Practice 90 minute session.

Join us on Saturday 6 December for a dedicated Pilates session designed to help you reconnect with your body, build strength, and move with intention. Across this guided class, you’ll: * Move through controlled, flowing sequences * Focus on core strength, alignment, and posture * Experience a calm, elevated studio atmosphere * Leave feeling grounded, and energised Whether you’re new to Pilates or already in a regular routine, this session is designed to meet you where you are and support you to move with clarity and confidence.

Step into 2026 with intention, clarity, and a creative practice designed to help you see yourself more clearly. In this special Confidence Lab session, we’ll explore confidence as something you can curate - through the choices you make, the qualities you amplify, and the story you choose to step into. We’ll start with a short guided reflection to surface the traits, habits, and energies you want to nurture in the coming year. Then, using collage materials selected specifically for this workshop, you’ll translate those insights into a visual composition that represents the version of yourself you’re ready to grow toward. This isn’t about resolutions or perfection. It’s about crafting a grounded, imaginative vision of your next chapter - one that feels honest, energizing, and fully yours. All materials are provided. Just bring yourself (and a friend) and a willingness to explore what confidence can look like for you in 2026. **Featured Partner: Columbus Collage Collective** The Columbus Collage Collective was started in August of 2023 by Emily Morgan (aka Lovely But Dead) and Douglas Cuckler (aka Wonder Doug) as a place for collage enthusiasts to gather and create art together. The collective has since become a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with the mission to hold free or low-cost collage events across central Ohio. The CCC welcomes all artists of all backgrounds and skill levels and encourages folks to take this time to step away from everyday existence and create art with people who share a love for this dynamic art form. All materials—magazines, scissors, craft knives, glue, paper, cardboard, and more—are provided, so there's no need to bring anything at all (though you're welcome to bring a friend or a favorite tool if you'd like!). We also encourage folks to take home magazines and materials from our events to support continued creativity!

Whether you’re launching a business, leading a team, navigating change, or simply striving to show up more fully—you belong here. Our work demands clarity, courage, and conviction—but the pace of daily life can erode our sense of self. Confidence Lab creates space to reflect, reconnect, and grow with others doing purpose-driven work. It’s designed for entrepreneurs, nonprofit leaders, creatives, corporate professionals, activists, and anyone ready to lead with authenticity and impact. ***Please note:*** *All are welcome!

**Calling all queer crochet enthusiasts;** I am a visual artist located in Columbus that is searching for people who may want to gather while also participating in creating a piece of artwork. My goal is to spend time enjoying one another’s company while making a work of art that will be displayed within our community. I plan to teach people to crochet (if unfamiliar) while also inviting current fiber artists to join us for some much-needed social interaction. There are no expectations from those who attend, materials will be included, and any amount of participation is welcome! If you have a favorite crochet hook or current project you are welcome to bring that along too! The primary goal is to foster a safe space for our community to chat, create and be. For further information please email [landerknits@outlook.com.](http://landerknits@outlook.com.) \*This will be our first meeting, bring friends and make new ones. Come as you are and make along side other like-minded folks.

Wouldn’t it be nice to find a way to overcome your feelings of anger so that you not only control them, but you no longer have the urge to lose your temper in the first place? And how about being able to shake off resentments, persistent annoyance, or even feelings of vengeance? We’d like to invite you to an event on how to overcome anger and resentment. We will show you why people have trouble controlling their temper and where resentment comes from. Flaring anger can ruin a meeting, a relationship, an opportunity, or just about any aspect of life. Worst of all, outbursts towards our family can create hurt that lingers throughout a lifetime. You want to have a civil conversation, and you’ve vowed that you wouldn’t lose your temper, but a few minutes later, the anger flares up. Maybe you’ve realized that being angry doesn’t get you what you want so you internalize it. Or maybe you avoid the knockdown, drag-out fights, but stewing in resentment is exhausting and takes an emotional toll. In this event we show you how to get to the root of your anger so that it stops being an issue to you. You’ll also learn why people harbor resentments and how to move on. Don't continue to struggle, make a difference in your life, and join us for this local event. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to the event. We look forward to seeing you there. This Meetup is sponsored by your local Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center.
