If you are honest with yourself and with others, you can't help but do well in life. A relationship exists between your own self-respect - how you look at your own personal values - and how successful you are. A person who is honest, outspoken and respects himself will get more done and accomplish his goals far easier than someone who is dishonest, introverted and withdrawn. Now you will learn the underlying reasons why people withdraw from others and life or feel a loss of personal integrity.

Somatic psychotherapy is starting to feel like the psychology of our time. Both ancient and emerging, it has proven distinctly helpful for people seeking to change unhelpful coping strategies, regulate dysregulated emotions, and reconnect with the body and authentic self. Especially for those who didn’t find the change they were seeking through conventional talk therapies. This work combines physical practices with consciousness-expanding techniques. In deeply embodied states, the body can reveal an innate wisdom that guides us toward profound relaxation and can spontaneously complete, release, or integrate stuck, immobilised survival responses. These experiences can cultivate peak states that support lasting transformation and deep healing. Doing this sacred work in community adds another layer of richness, offering a deep sense of connection and belonging. Because somatic work is not a one size fits all, Adarsa is aiming to diversify the work, by offering an *Ouroboric,* high activation class and a *Lotus* gentle, regulatory class. **Ouroboric Classes** (High Activation): Designed for those experiencing hyperarousal—anxiety, restlessness, racing thoughts, hypervigilance, and difficulty relaxing. These dynamic sessions provide a safe container to mine the body for the unhelpful stories it’s been carrying—through vigorous movement and breathwork—so we can go to the root of discomfort and allow it to shift. **Lotus Classes** (Gentle Regulation): Created for those in hypoarousal states—shutdown, dissociation, numbness, fatigue, and depression. These nurturing sessions gently awaken the system and gradually build capacity for feeling and presence. Each class integrates: * Somatic practices tailored to your nervous system state * Yoga and mindful movement * Transformative breathwork * Guided meditation * Art therapy for integration * Community connection and sharing Join us in discovering which pathway serves your unique healing journey. **Affordable Access Through Medicare & NDIS** 💚 **Mental Health Care Plan holders:** Access 10 group sessions with almost the entire class fee covered by Medicare. 💙 **NDIS participants:** Full class fees covered under your NDIS funding. With Sharna Arti: a trained somatic psychotherapist of over 20 years, a psychologist, kundalini yoga teacher, certified holotropic breathwork teacher.

**Heide Museum of Modern Art & Gardens** Our Sunday Walk this week takes us back to the beautiful Heide Sculpture Gardens and Park on the banks of the Yarra River. An integral part of Heide is its Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) and the grounds featuring outdoor sculptures. With a long history as an artist's retreat and landscape gardens, Heide is a special place for a Sunday Walk. **Start**: Meet at Heide main entrance, off Templestowe Road, Bulleen. We'll meet at the large sculpture display outside the Gallery Shop at the entrance to MoMA. (see main picture here). Note the slightly later Start Time: **9.15 AM** **Parking:** Turn off Templestowe Rd and head for the Lower Carpark (follow signs). If this carpark is full, drive past and follow the road to Banksia Park where there's plenty of extra space, then walk back to the Kitchen. **The Walk**: We'll walk the gardens and parkland of the adjacent Banksia Park before heading back to the Kitchen Cafe for brunch. It's a slightly shorter walk than our usual (about 4 Km) but includes some hilly sections. **Toilets**: Throughout the Park and at the Kitchen area. **Coffee**: At the Heide Kitchen Cafe, where we can also enjoy brunch if you wish.

Every month, WIP Society gathers a small group of Melbourne business owners around a single question. Not a trivia question. Not a debate prompt. A question worth actually sitting with — the kind that reveals something about how you think, not just what you know. This month's question will be shared with you one week before we meet, so you arrive having genuinely lived with it rather than reached for the first answer that came to mind. The format is simple. Eight people. A comfortable venue. A couple of hours over drinks. No agenda beyond the question and wherever it honestly leads. No hierarchy — what your business does or how big it is stays at the door. No performance of certainty — not knowing something here is a contribution, not a liability. WIP Society takes its name from Work in Progress. Every member considers themselves one. That shared orientation — and the shared experience of running a business — is what makes the conversation different. **This event is free. You cover your own food and drinks.** This is WIP Society's founding Melbourne cohort. The people in this first room will shape what it becomes. Places are strictly limited to eight. Location shared with confirmed members closer to the date. Membership is by application — please apply before registering: 👉 https://forms.clickup.com/9016427028/f/8cpqggm-13616/1X3X9UGMIEIBA9089H

This is an in-person meeting. At this meeting you will get answers to depression and anxiety. Find out the source of them and how to get rid of them. Did you know that unwanted emotions like anxiety, depression, unhappiness, loneliness, hopelessness, anger, fear, 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 due to a chemical imbalance in your brain from some nebulous chemical reaction "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. 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 Hubbard Dianetics Foundation of Central Ohio and Church of Scientology of Central Ohio.
