Meditation and Mysticism

Your CV has about six seconds to make an impression. Is it really telling your story as a senior engineer? Join our colleagues **Elena Topalova, Lead Talent Partner,** and **Dimitar Kokotanekov, Senior Talent Partner,** for an interactive workshop dedicated to experienced software engineers who want to take the next step in their careers. We’ll explore real CV examples (both strong and weak), discuss what recruiters and hiring managers actually focus on in the first seconds and break down how to: * Structure a CV that helps hiring managers quickly see your value as a senior engineer * Translate responsibilities into measurable impact and achievements * Present your tech stack and soft skills in a way that supports your career narrative * Adapt your CV to different roles, companies and expectations without rewriting it from scratch In addition, Elena and Dimitar will be joined by **Atanas Dichev, Head of Engineering** at the News UK Tech dedicated team at Pwrteams, who will bring the “decision-maker” perspective – how CVs are evaluated by hiring managers, which details matter most and how engineers can present their skills and experience clearly. If you’re a senior software engineer who’s ready for new challenges, don’t let an average CV hold you back. Join us for this workshop, get fresh ideas and leave with a clear plan how to turn your CV into a powerful tool for your next career move. 🇧🇬 Please note: the workshop will be held in Bulgarian.

Join us at **Unity of Columbus** for *Spa for Your Soul*, a restorative and inspiring workshop designed to nourish your spirit, awaken your inner wisdom, and reconnect you with the sacred rhythm of life. Drawing from the rich spiritual insights of **Matthew Fox** and the timeless theological wisdom of **Thomas Aquinas**, this workshop invites participants into a deeper experience of spirituality rooted in compassion, creativity, and divine presence. Together, we will explore spirituality not as something distant or abstract, but as a lived, embodied experience—one that honors joy, justice, beauty, and the inherent goodness of creation. Through guided reflection, gentle spiritual practices, discussion, and contemplative moments, *Spa for Your Soul* offers a sacred space to release stress, renew clarity, and remember the divine spark within. This is an opportunity to pause, breathe, and tend lovingly to your soul—much like a spa experience, but for your inner life. Whether you are seeking spiritual refreshment, deeper understanding, or simply a peaceful space to be present, this workshop welcomes you exactly as you are. **Come, rest, reflect, and renew—your soul deserves it.**

Meeting Room 3B, Main Library Join us for a welcoming evening of reflection, gentle music, and meaningful conversation. We’ll begin with a short grounding moment, followed by a brief reading from spiritual or philosophical traditions, and an open reflection circle where participants can share (or simply listen). Libera Animae is an interfaith community focused on inner growth, creativity, and authentic connection. This first gathering is a simple introduction to the spirit of the group and a chance to meet others seeking deeper meaning and community. All backgrounds are welcome.

We are excited to host Guided Meditations on Sundays at 6 pm in our Ashram/Gallery/Home! !! !! Everyone wants to know what kind of God we worship and what kind of meditation we do. We worship the GOD that LOVES US! We understand that god is an energy and it lives in us as us. Our meditations guide others to actually experience that energy! xoxo We don't just talk about peace, love and affection, we experience it :) Also we are a home not a business, so we enjoy building community one friend at a time. We always build in time for people to mingle & develop friendships! xoxo Much Love, Frank Tennyson Namaste, Frank Tennyson http://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/a/f/9/9/600_447824953.jpeg
