Unwind after work, clear your mind, and immerse yourself in a world of color – that's what this 1.5-hour acrylic painting workshop is all about. "After Work Flow" is a creative space where you can find peace, leave everyday life behind, and fully embrace the moment. No prior experience is necessary – just the desire to try something new and engage with color and movement. On a 30 x 30 cm canvas, you'll discover the freedom of abstract painting. There's no right or wrong, no perfect or imperfect – only your personal expression. You'll learn how colors interact, how they mix, overlap, and create new moods. It's not just about the result, but above all about the process: feeling, observing, and letting go. A special focus is placed on getting to know colors intuitively. You'll be surprised how individual hues change when combined and how much emotion can be contained in a single area of ​​color. Step by step, you'll develop your own abstract painting and learn to let go of preconceived notions. Brushstrokes also play a crucial role. You'll discover different ways to apply paint – calmly, boldly, softly, or with texture. Each brushstroke becomes a movement that lends depth and character to your painting. You're encouraged to experiment, try things out, and find new forms of expression without pressure or expectations. The workshop invites you to enter a state of flow – a place where time ceases to matter and you become completely immersed in the creative process. This is precisely where relaxation arises: when you detach yourself from your thoughts and simply allow yourself to drift. All materials are provided, including a 30 x 30 cm canvas, high-quality acrylic paints, and all necessary tools. At the end, you'll take your own abstract artwork home – a memento of a short creative break just for you. "After Work Flow" is more than just a painting course. It's a break from everyday life, a moment for yourself, and an invitation to experience color anew.

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/

Afterwards, we'll gather around a beautifully set table in the garden for a homemade, 100% plant-based **Ayurvedic 6-course dinner**, enjoyed by candlelight as the sun slowly sets over Zurich. ✨ And because no Eat Positive event would be complete without something sweet, there will also be a delicious selection of **Raw Vegan Desserts**, as well as a little surprise gift waiting for you. 🤍 This is an invitation to pause, breathe, connect and savor the moment - an experience designed to nourish body, mind and soul. 🌟 **ONLY 2 SPOTS REMAINING!** 🌟 **Special for Eat Positive Switzerland Members:** As a member of our community, you can still benefit from the **Early Bird price**, which means a **CHF 20 discount** on the regular ticket price.

Through 1:1 experiences just for women, Cacao Ceremonies, Soundhealings, Embodiment, Breathwork and Drum Journeys, I create spaces where the noise quiets down and something more honest can emerge. To create moments where you can hear your own truth louder than the expectations, the pressure, and the performance.

**Al Aire Libre Club** Son “gatherings creativos” de verano en la naturaleza para inspirarnos a través de conversaciones, journaling, juegos y actividades creativas al aire libre. ¿Y porque este espacio existe?… because girls just wanna have fun 🎶 **Primer encuentro de verano: LA INSPIRACIÓN** La inspiración… esa que emerge en lo cotidiano. Una frase de una película que nos mueve, una canción que despierta recuerdos, algo que nos atraviesa, un paisaje que nos devuelve la calma, un instante simple en el que sentimos que algo se despierta y se mueve dentro de nosotras. Y ese impulso se siente como ganas: ganas de crear, de tomar una decisión, de darle forma a algo que tiene significado para nosotras. **¿Cuál es la actividad para romper el hielo?** En este encuentro creativo vamos a jugar con la inspiración... Trae algo que te haya inspirado: una frase de un libro, una canción cuya letra te atraviese, un libro que te cambió la vida, un dije u objeto con un significado profundo para ti, una foto que amas o algo que hayas/estes creando.. ya sea físico, un concepto de un proyecto o algo que tú misma hayas escrito y sientas que ya es momento de compartir. La idea es venir a dejar que ruja tu alma: compartir lo que traes y contarnos por qué es tan especial para ti. * Queremos inspirarnos mutuamente, tener conversaciones auténticas y profundas. * Que este sea un espacio donde nos enseñes un pedacito de ese mágico universo que habita en ti. * Queremos conocerte a través de lo que te mueve, y que todas salgamos con los ojos llenos de estrellitas, listas para seguir creando más de eso que nos inspira. **Trae:** * Una manta o tela para sentarte * Tu libreta y lápiz * Una bebida para mantenerte hidratada (necesitamos ese cerebro prendido, creativo y presente) * Algo para comer o compartir * Y, obviamente, no olvides traer algo que te inspire (según la descripción de arriba) Este espacio lo vamos a co-crear juntas. **¿Te sumas?** 🗓 Sábado 20 de Junio 🕒 10:30 am – 13:00pm 📍 Zürichhorn, Höschgasse 3, Zürich, CH (Cerca de Chinagarten, junto al lago, a lado de la escultura llamada “Heureka" de Jean Tinguely) *\*Nota a tomar en cuenta: el evento está sujeto a las condiciones climáticas. En caso de lluvia, la fecha será postergada o cancelada* Si tienes dudas o preguntas escríbeme y conversamos +41767277515 Con cariño, Mile

Open Shelter has teamed up again with Red White and Boom! Friday, July 3rd & we are looking for volunteers to run the event’s alcohol booths. Proceeds from sales go to the Open Shelter’s organization. There are two available shifts: 12-6p & 5-11p. There will be an ipad-like device to process transactions in addition to cash. Everything will be in bottles or cans, so transactions should be very easy. Must be 21+. There are multiple beverage stations along the Civic Center Bridge. The stations are covered and also have beverage trucks next to them, so volunteers can cool off in the trucks. As far as parking, it is suggested those who are coming from the east use the Columbus Commons Garage, and those from the west use the Belle Street Garage. Harry from the Open Shelter will be your contact.
