Instagram: @cercleahimsa Vine a gaudir i compartir una sessió basada en el ioga i en l'energia del cicle lunar. Cada setmana fem una sessió diferent aprofitant el moment lunar en el qual ens trobem, per exemple lluna plena: agraïment, lluna minvant: deixar anar... El pes central de la sessió està en la pràctica de ioga, però també fem una meditació profunda d'uns 10 min mínim i una conclusió de la sessió expressada a través de l'escriptura terapèutica o de l'expressió artística. Som un màxim de 8 persones i així creem espais de confiança i d'obertura on, a través del cos i el moviment, anem apropant-nos al camí de l'autoconeixement i la pau. Instagram: @cercleahimsa

**Insight Circling ✨** What if **being with others** could become a path to **deeper connection**, **clarity**, and **inner knowing**? **Insight Circling** is a **relational mindfulness practice** in the form of a conversation. It is an invitation to connect more deeply with yourself and others, and to explore what happens in the present moment as we relate together. We practice noticing, without judgement, what is happening **within us and between us** right now. This may include observing: ✨ Sensations in the body ✨ Emotions as they arise ✨ Thoughts and inner narratives ✨ The subtle dynamics of connection with others By becoming more aware of our present-moment experience, we begin to understand ourselves more fully, lead ourselves more wisely, and cultivate trust in our own inner knowing. **What we’ll do** 🌱 Each session begins with gentle exercises that help us arrive, settle, and connect. Together we gradually develop our capacity to: 🍀 Be present with what is 🍀 Listen deeply to ourselves 🍀 Listen deeply to others 🍀 Speak from authentic experience 🍀 Stay connected in real-time relationship **This practice can support you to 💛** ✨ Connect more deeply with your emotions ✨ Feel more at ease and aligned in body and mind ✨ Receive inspiration and fresh insight ✨ Strengthen intuition and decision-making ✨ Improve relationships and connect more deeply with others ✨ Become unstuck in different areas of life and take meaningful action **Why I love this practice 🌟** I spent many years meditating, but when I discovered this practice it felt like a revelation — a missing piece. It helped me become aware of how I relate to others, how I create my life, and how presence can transform connection. **About the practice 🍀** This practice is inspired by **Circling**. Further information here: **[https://www.transformationalconnection.com/](https://www.transformationalconnection.com/)** Join us on this beautiful journey of discovering ourselves. **Good to know 📍** ✨ No previous experience is necessary ✨ This event will be held in **English** ✨ Offered by **voluntary** **donation** ✨ Places are limited Please RSVP here **and** message me on WhatsApp to confirm your place: 📲 +34 667 840 756 Numbers shown here may not always be accurate, as the event may also be shared elsewhere. The event may be cancelled if fewer than **4 people** are confirmed. **Please read 🙏** We begin on time, and the session builds from the opening practices, so late arrivals won’t be able to join once we’ve started. By signing up, you agree to respect the confidentiality of all participants and not share personal information outside the group. I may occasionally take photos to share here. If you’d prefer not to appear, just let me know beforehand. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact me. **About me 🌟** I am a qualified **Transformational & Career Coach**, trained in London in 2016. My own journey has included changing both career and country in order to live more in tune with who I truly am. I bring that lived experience into my work. I’m passionate about helping people connect deeply to themselves, uncover their creativity, and bring their gifts into the world through meaningful work. I have practiced meditation for over **20 years**, and spent **5 years** living and helping facilitate a retreat centre on a tiny island in Scotland, established by a Tibetan Buddhist monastery — one of the pioneers of mindfulness in the UK. I believe meditation and mindfulness are powerful tools for gaining clarity, focus, and the space to listen deeply within. They have certainly helped me a great deal. 🌟 **[www.freeyourflow.org](http://www.freeyourflow.org/)**

Link oficial: https://luma.com/3tg5s7lo # 4ta Encuentro: Edición Solar ​Cerramos esta serie de encuentros con nuestra cuarta edición del Colectivo Farina: **Adaptation**. En esta ocasión, junto a los amigos de **Slow Lab**, desplazamos nuestra mirada de la instrumentación técnica hacia la **sincronización con el entorno**, explorando el clima (en este caso el sol) como nuestro principal ingrediente. ​Nos trasladamos al huerto urbano de **[Green City Lab](https://greencitylab.org/?utm_source=luma)** para habitar un espacio de experimentación donde la **cocina solar** será el eje central. Reflexionaremos sobre cómo adaptarnos a un futuro más resiliente mediante el uso de energías alternativas, desafiando la inmediatez industrial para aprender a "cosechar" el calor. En esta edición, el sol y el tiempo dictarán el ritmo de la mesa, transformando el acto de cocinar en un ejercicio de soberanía, paciencia y coexistencia con los ciclos naturales. # ​¿Qué es ***Colectivo Farina?*** ​Un espacio para experimentar, degustar y cocinar colectivamente, creado por **[bifaz](https://www.instagram.com/bifazworks/?utm_source=luma).** ## ​**¿Para qué?** ​Colectivo Farina busca **reconectar con los ingredientes y retomar técnicas olvidadas** de la cocina, reduciendo artilugios y poniendo el foco en lo **manual**, lo **artesanal** e incluso lo **ancestral**. Todo desde una práctica **compartida y participativa,** donde cocinar vuelve a ser un acto colectivo, más que una ejecución individual. Desde bifaz, creemos que el comer del futuro no solo va tanto del qué cocinaremos sino del cómo y con quién, poniendo el foco en la cocina como **acto de comunidad y resistencia a la vida acelerada** que llevamos. ## ​**¿De qué va?** ​Este proyecto se compone de **encuentros culinarios** que parten de un concepto transversal (que irá variando en cada edición) con el objetivo de **reflexionar** sobre la **sostenibilidad, la cultura y el futuro** de nuestras prácticas culinarias. Todo esto se lleva a una actividad de **cocina colectiva**, donde el resultado final será, en su mayoría (pero no limitado a) pasta, usada aquí como formato versátil, accesible y profundamente comunitario. ## ​¿Por qué *Farina*? ​Del latín farīna, “harina” o “polvo fino de grano”, un ingrediente base de innumerables culturas desde el inicio de los tiempos. Económica, cotidiana y sustanciosa, la harina representa la sencillez en su máximo esplendor. Y de eso va este proyecto: de **volver a lo esencial**. De cocinar desde lo básico, sin artificios, donde **la pasta, será nuestro vehículo principal**, no por técnica, sino por lo que simboliza: unión, manualidad y un punto de partida común. ## ​Lo que NO es ​No es una cena clandestina. ​No es un taller de pasta. ​No es un restaurante. ​Aquí **tod@s somos cocineros** y nadie queda por fuera. No hay protagonismos ni jerarquías: el resultado es siempre el producto de todas nuestras manos y todas nuestras mentes. # ​A tener en cuenta: ​- La inscripción es gratuita y la entrada incluye acceso a la experiencia, la comida que cocinemos y pica-pica. Se pedirá una **aportación fija de 10€** para cubrir ingredientes y para apoyar el proyecto de huerto urbano **[Green City Lab.](https://greencitylab.org/?utm_source=luma)** \- El menú será apto para **vegetarianos y veganos**.
