**Make 5 Big Steps For A Great 2026! - with Northern Deer** *** ***Have You Ever Done Something Like This?*** \#\#\#\# Have you ever felt the magic of starting anew\, leaving the past behind\, and stepping boldly into your future? **Have you ever done something truly magical to start your year?** Join me and the WOW Team for a transformative, empowering, and deeply spiritual evening to set the foundation for a remarkable 2026. As part of the **WOW (World of Wisdom & Spiritual Adventure)** tradition, we begin each new year with a **Shamanic Ritual** that celebrates, cleanses, and empowers. This isn’t just an event—it’s an initiation into the new year, where your intentions align with the Spirit of the Universe to manifest a brighter future. We are celebrating with a ceremony that contains these five parts * **Tea Ritual** * **The Magic Box of Intention** * **Shamanic Journey for the New Year to the four worlds** * **Personal Spirit Message for YOU** * **Tarot Predictions for the New Year!** We are waiting for you also this year to celebrate together and build the foundation of empowerment for our new Future!! **With Love!** Northern Deer Alexander *Founder of the WORLD OF WISDOM & SPIRITUAL ADVENTURE Community* *** ***COME TO OUR RITUAL!*** \#\#\#\# Our ritual consists of 5 parts * **The First Part -** The Tea Drinking Ritual - is an ancient way for people to connect with their Higher Self and connect with their most profound truths and intentions! By drinking Tea together, we will all put intention in the magical liquid itself, and we will share blessings and wishes for the highest possible destiny in life. * **The Second Part** \- The Magic Box of Intention is an actual box with a lot of energy initiated by Northern Deer Alexander in which you are going to place the intentions you have for the year and which you have thought about in the Tea Ceremonial Drinking\, written in a small piece of paper that we will give you in a small ritual to manifest them in your life\. This will also set your intention for the next ritual\, the third part\. * **The Third Part**. is the shamanic Journey in the 4 worlds with the intention to clean and finish with the past (year or whole life's issues) and start anew, creating a happy life from now on, from 2026! This is a powerful "active meditative journey" with the drum, where you will have the most profound internal change possible to create something new. You have to experience it to understand what it really means. For this ritual, you can bring your own yoga mat (if you wish to have your own) or use the ones we have in the spiritual center * **The Fourth Part -** Personal Spirit Message for YOU - Alexander has prepared several messages from the Universal Spirit in meditation, and you will be called to pick one by your own luck (or destiny) to empower yourself and focus the energy of your destination in life. * **The Fifth part** is the Tarot Ritual, in which you will pick a card signifying some aspect, the most important for you at the moment, that you will have to work through in the upcoming year. There will be a small personal prediction by Northern Deer Alexander to every participant. **We are waiting for you with love to experience this magic of transformation and unique experience of your life!** *Have a happy vacation & happy moments in this period of Christmas & New Year's Eve!* *** **🌟Why You Can’t Miss This** \#\#\#\# This experience isn’t just about celebrating the new year \- It’s about creating the life you want. Many participants have found clarity, empowerment, and transformation through these rituals. By releasing the past and embracing the future, you’ll step into 2026 ready to manifest your dreams. **Imagine stepping into 2026 with:** ✔️ Clarity of purpose ✔️ A heart unburdened by the past ✔️ The magic of intention on your side Many participants have said these rituals are life-changing, giving them the courage and energy to face the year ahead with strength and inspiration. **You deserve to feel this empowered.

Welcome to our weekly event in the upstairs room of The Sister Café, rue Chair et Pain 3, one block from the Grand Place. Please get there early enough to order your drink at the bar first. Thank you! After introductions we will collect questions from the group participants, choose one by voting then discuss it for an hour. Then most of us stay for drinks and bizarre conversations. Past questions have been wide and not confined to academic philosophy: What is a genuine friend? Is social media turning us into emotional zombies? Do we lose some of the experience of things by defining them? Are we driven by sex? Is loneliness a personal failure? Is morality relative? **Crucially, be kind and respectful and generous** in your disagreements; remember how much you personally enjoy someone else proving you wrong before celebrating your cutting counterexamples.

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.

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.

**The idea for this group is to build a community where men can gather together and build connections & learn and grow from each other.** How we start each meeting is by each of us checking in with our "roses and thorns" aka what are the good things and the bad things going on in your life recently? Then we will go into a topic discussion. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS** \*\*THERE WILL BE A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY FOR NO-SHOWS. IF YOU RSVP TO A MEETING AND FAIL TO SHOW UP WITHOUT NOTICE, YOU'LL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP. THIS IS TO PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY OF THE GROUP\*\* 1. Confidentiality - EVERYTHING that is shared NEVER leaves this space so that this space remains safe and sacred. There is a zero tolerance policy for this. If a man is in violation of this, they will be permanently removed from the group. 2. Non-Judgement - we respect and honor every man’s truth so that we may receive the same from others. While we may not agree on everything, we commit to respecting every man’s perspectives and engaging in honorable discussion with one another. 3. Be committed - honor your commitment to this group and to yourself. If you attend a meeting, please commit yourself fully to the meeting. Also be committed to your own journey. When we fail, we own it & clean it up. 4. Speak from the heart - this is NOT a space to “look good”, have the “right” answers, and have it all together. Relax and know you are not alone. Be exactly who you are within the safety of this space. 5. Be supportive - This means always willing to provide encouragement to your fellow men, encourage action and momentum in each other’s lives.. Be willing to challenge each other. Be willing to hold each other accountable. 6. Participation - what you receive from this community will be a reflection of what you put into it. Period. We ask that you share your perspectives, reflect on others, and give/receive support when and where it’s needed.
