Loneliness

This is a small-group, quiet-ish meetup for ADHD brains who to connect with their tribe without their nervous system going, 'Aiiight, I'm outta here!' We’re meeting at **Picturehouse Central** (Piccadilly) because it’s one of those places where you can actually hear yourself think. Mostly. This is more of a tea/coffee and cake kinda venue. Sorry, booze hounds! **The vibe is**: relaxed, validating, welcoming It won't be like whispering to each other at the back of the class, just… less sensory Armageddon. **What to expect** A small group (human-scale, not “who are all these people” scale). A quiet-ish venue where you don’t have to shout your personality into existence. Conversation that can be normal (well, probably far from normal . There is no need to worry about trying to fit in, no need to mask. A soft landing. Come late, ease in, do a gentle hello, no one’s timing you. Low-pressure hanging out. If you want to chat, great. If you want to sit and decompress near other people, also great. **The unofficial theme** How to be social without being assaulted by: fluorescent lighting overlapping conversations surprise music that one table doing a full volume podcast recording next to you. **Important Note:** If you cannot make it, please put 'Can't go'. This ensures there's space for others who want to attend ‐------------------------------------------------------ Boundaries (quick, clear, important) Yay!-DHD is a consent-led space. Some people are chatty, some are quiet, some are pacing themselves. Please don’t push for personal details, contact info, or continued connection if someone isn’t offering it. This isn’t a dating event. ‐------------------------------------------------------- For you robots out there: ADHD | Low sensory meetup | Inclusive | AUDHD |

Join us for a transformative online tappling workshop where we'll explore how to align with love in all areas of your life. Welcome To [Tailor Matched](https://api.wearexapp.com/promoter/events/manage/www.tailormatched.com "https://api.wearexapp.com/promoter/events/manage/www.tailormatched.com")\- your home of deep emotional\, sexual and intellectual connection\. Our Dating & Relationship Coach Sophie French will be hosting a very gorgeous, gentle, grounding 50 minute tapping workshop for individuals who are open to love and want to feel calmer, more connected to themselves, and less activated by dating and relationships. ***[Book Your Ticket Here](https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/open-to-love-a-free-tapping-workshop-tickets-1982772588186?utm-campaign=social&utm-content=attendeeshare&utm-medium=discovery&utm-term=listing&utm-source=cp&aff=ebdsshcopyurl)*** If dating and relationships have been bringing up anxiety, fear of rejection, overthinking, or old emotional patterns, this session offers a space to slow down, soften, and reconnect inward. We matchmakers and relationship coaches at Tailor Matched know all too well how modern dating and relationships can stir up a deep sense of uncertainty in us as humans. Ambiguity, mixed signals, rejection, and the pressure to be chosen can activate old fears, nervous system responses, and protective patterns - often without us realising it. This workshop is designed to gently ease that activation by creating a sense of internal safety and self-connection, helping you meet dating and relationships from a calmer, more grounded place. By soothing the nervous system and releasing old emotional charge, the intention is to support you in aligning more deeply to love - within yourself first, and then with others. Rather than analysing dating or trying to “fix” yourself, this workshop is about regulating your nervous system and aligning internally to love - so you can relate to others from a place of safety, presence, and self-worth. The experience is calming and experiential, guided through EFT tapping, embodiment, and self-connection, with minimal talking or cognitive processing. **️ The intention of this workshop is to support you in:** Creating a sense of safety and connection within yourself before seeking it with another Calming the nervous system around dating, rejection, and uncertainty Releasing dating anxiety, overthinking, and fear of not being chosen Letting go of old stories, past disappointments, and protective armour Reconnecting to self-worth, openness, and emotional availability Feeling grounded, confident, and present when meeting or relating to others **️ Who This Is For** This workshop is for you if you: Feel anxious, activated, or discouraged when dating Notice old patterns or fears showing up in relationships Want dating to feel calmer, safer, and more embodied Are open to love but want to approach it from self-connection rather than pressure Prefer a gentle, nervous-system-led experience No previous tapping experience is required. ** Practical Details** Length: 50-minute live online session Format: Guided tapping workshop Who It’s Led By: Dating Coach Sophie French of Tailor Matched What You’ll Need: A quiet space, comfortable seating, and an open mind Our hope is that you leave this experience feeling like a calmer, more connected version of yourself - one who is more present, open, and anchored in a deep knowing and strong sense of self with connection to heart, mind ad body. When your inner world feels safer and steadier, love and life can be met with greater ease, clarity, and trust. This is an invitation to carry that grounded connection with you, not just into dating, but into the way you relate to yourself and the world around you. See you there, much love, Team Tailor Matched x **About Miss** [Sophie](https://www.instagram.com/sophiefrench.co/ "https://www.instagram.com/sophiefrench.co/") French can help you identify and release the unique blocks you have to love, so you’re no longer repeating patterns that don’t serve you. You'll learn simple shifts to understand and rewire your mind and heart for the love you long for - and finally see how much more influence you have over your love life than you’ve ever been told. You don’t need another app. You don’t need to “try harder.” You don’t need to shrink yourself, play games, or settle.

A **smaller, quieter, and less rushed** edition of THOUGHT EXPERIMENTS IN PUBS. At TEiP DEEP, we have the chance to spend a whole hour and a half on **one thought experiment**, exploring different perspectives, coming up with new questions, listening and learning from one another. **How it works:** \- We split into small groups for each chapter of the thought experiment \(3\-4\)\. \- We shuffle every 25 mins to meet new people and change things up\. \- And at the end we'll have a brief group reflection\, sharing ideas and insights \- this will be lightly facilitated to ensure that everyone has a chance to speak if they want to \(no pressure\)\. Some simple ground rules to keep our conversation the best it can be: * respect for one another’s perspectives, beliefs, time (etc.) * confidentiality of personal stories * own your perspective * you don’t have to talk if you don’t want to. Our aim is the same as our bigger Thought Experiments in Pubs meetups: **a chance to meet and talk at about meaningful, thought provoking things**. Although we’ll be going a bit ‘deeper’, we’ll keep the intention to have an enjoyable evening, with good humour and fun. Places are limited to 15-20 people and tickets are £5. Please update your RSVP if you can no longer attend so that someone else can have your place. **Who should come:** Everyone! We believe that the more perspectives, the richer the conversation. This group is not about being experts in Philosophy, it is about *doing* philosophy. That is, bringing our various life experiences and lenses on the world to group discussions about the human experience, the nature of reality...etc. etc.... **Where we'll meet:** The Fitzroy Tavern in Fitzrovia. The nearest Tube stations are Goodge Street and Tottenham Court Road. Looking forward to meeting & talking with you :-) **[WHATSAPP GROUP](https://chat.whatsapp.com/D13LHw5BV3rEtUtO3ORklC)** \- stay in the loop **[INSTAGRAM](https://www.instagram.com/thoughtexperimentsinpubs/)** \- see what we look like **[FACEBOOK](www.facebook.com/thoughtexperimentsinpub)** \- ditto **[WEBSITE](www.alltogether.one)** \- sign up to the newsletter\, support\, & feed back \*\*[ALTERNATIVE PLATFORM FOR TICKETS](https://tribeirl.com/thought-experiments-in-pubs) \- tribe\*\* #philosophyinpubs #inclusivity #openmindedness #deepdive #TEiPdeep

This is an in-person meeting. Did you know that unwanted emotions like loneliness, sadness, hopelessness, anger, fear, anxiety, or feelings of irritation don’t just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not chemical imbalance in your brain due to some nebulous chemical reactions by chance. Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you. The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life. For instance, let's say you are already carrying a huge load on your back, then you cannot take on much more, but, let's say something else happens to you, such as the difficulties from the Pandemic, then the resultant combined weight on you can take you over the edge, kind of like the straw that break the camel's back. When this happens, people's attention usually goes to the straw that was added, but actually the majority of the weight had come from the huge load that were already there, holding a person down and causing a person issues. So how do you remove the huge load that was already there? How do you lighten them up? Is it possible to get rid of them? That is what this meeting will be all about. 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. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
