This time we visit again the beautiful Theatre de Poche in Bois de la Cambre! After the show we can drink something and discuss at the cozy bar of the theater. [informations](https://poche.be/show/2025-le-long-chemin-du-retour) (language FR) [Ticket](https://shop.utick.net/?pos=POCHE&module=ACTIVITYSERIEDETAILS&s=1CDA7DC4-DB97-49B3-46D3-282B2CC97A46) Nick et Tom reviennent à la maison après avoir fait la guerre d’Afghanistan. En apparence ils vont bien. Mais ils ont ramené avec eux quelques souvenirs encombrants : les fantômes de soldats en mission envahissent leur quotidien, troublant les retrouvailles en famille, perturbant leurs jours et leurs nuits, s’immisçant dans les tâches ménagères, et leurs tentatives d’oublier ce qu’ils ont vu... Le Long Chemin du retour permet d’ouvrir la réflexion tant sur les dégâts collatéraux des guerres se profilant à nos portes, que sur une certaine attirance pour la violence.

Making new friends in a new city doesn’t need to be a struggle at all.

On March 13, 2026, we gather under a powerful celestial alignment: Black Moon Lilith & Antares activating Venus in Aries. This aspect invites us to soften a deeply conditioned pattern, the part of us that learned to receive love, money, safety, and abundance through struggle. Instead of fighting for life… we explore how to receive from a state of inner peace. ✨ This evening is a guided Shamanic Drumming Journey (Shamanic Trance Meditation) designed to help the nervous system release survival tension and reconnect with safety within. 📍 Location: ESPACE44, 44 Rue de Confédéres, 1000 Brussels 🗓 Date & Time: 13 March 2026 - 19:30 💶 Energy Exchange: 30 € Registration Required: https://www.kubraozguvenc.com/event-details-registration/shamanic-drumming-journey-from-survival-to-peace 🌿 What Happens During the Session?

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.

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Our March speakers are Molly Gaines and Zack Parrish, co-organizers of the Secular Education Association: They will share their story of how a small group of Ohio parents grew into a national organization tracking released-time religious instruction and other church–state issues in public schools. The presentation will cover SEA’s early wins and hard lessons, what we’re seeing nationally right now, and how local advocates can play a meaningful role in protecting public education. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of the landscape — and practical ways to get involved. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.

**Our March pick is *God of the Woods* by Liz Moore.** **This month’s novel is an award-winning literary mystery that blends family drama with psychological suspense. It explores women’s voices and relationships while delivering an exciting, eerie, and deeply suspenseful story. The book is 576 pages in print or 14 hours and 35 minutes on audiobook.** Early morning, August 1975: a camp counselor discovers an empty bunk. Its occupant, Barbara Van Laar, has gone missing. Barbara isn’t just any thirteen-year-old: she’s the daughter of the family that owns the summer camp and employs most of the region’s residents. And this isn’t the first time a Van Laar child has disappeared. Barbara’s older brother similarly vanished fourteen years ago, never to be found. As a panicked search begins, a thrilling drama unfolds. Chasing down the layered secrets of the Van Laar family and the blue-collar community working in its shadow, Moore’s multi-threaded story invites readers into a rich and gripping dynasty of secrets and second chances. It is Liz Moore’s most ambitious and wide-reaching novel yet.
