13/03 - Breathwork Ceremony: MASCULINE
13/03 - Breathwork Ceremony: MASCULINE
Through guided breathing and music, participants are supported in reconnecting with inner steadiness and allowing recent experiences — personal, emotional, or relational — to land in the body with greater clarity and calm. This session emphasizes nervous system regulation, integration, and a felt sense of orientation before moving forward. The practice is gentle, accessible, and does not require previous breathwork experience. The evening includes a short introduction, approximately 50 minutes of guided breathwork, and a sharing circle with tea afterward. Masculine / Shiva / Yang Ground. Direct. Build. This ceremony is an exploration of the masculine current within us — the part that moves forward, sets boundaries, and creates structure. When distorted, it can easily turn into aggression or rigidity. It is often said that we live in a world largely driven by masculine power. Let’s explore together how the masculine shows up in your life and in your body. This journey is about restoring clean strength. Shaking up rigidity. Gaining inner clarity, stability, and direction. Facilitated by Alina Shupikov 13.03, 19.00-21.00, 360 CZK register: https://vev.co/atma-community-space-praha

Friday 13th Creepy Quickie: Cemetery of Fools
Friday 13th Creepy Quickie: Cemetery of Fools
Dear Adventurers, Friday 13th is begging for a visit somewhere creepy. And since it's always nice to incorporate a couple of steep climbs into an innocent city walk, the Bohnice cemetery is an obvious pick. The place has painful history and is shrouded in spooky stories. And for the maximum effect, we'll get there after dark 👻 – It's a city walk, but there will be unpaved parts, so **wear shoes that you don't mind getting dusty/dirty** – The pace will be leisurely, about 4.5 km/h – If you're uncomfortable walking in the dark without a light, bring one 📍 **Trail** 10 km • ↑ 205 m • ↓ 123 m [MAP OF THE TRAIL](https://mapy.com/s/hezucuzofa) **👋 Meeting Point** 17:00 in front of Výstaviště, the fountain closest to the Stromovka park (leftmost if you're facing the Výstaviště grounds and the tram stop is behind you) [☎️](https://emojipedia.org/telephone/) **Contact** +420 732 570 684 (Elena) You join at your own risk. By joining our events, you accept our Terms and Conditions. Looking forward! 😊

Philosophy Seminar: God of the Philosophers
Philosophy Seminar: God of the Philosophers
This month we bring you a seminar from the host of Prague's famous Cafe Philo, Albert Hoffman, entitled “The God of the Philosophers”. In this seminar, we'll be **exploring the concept of god not through the lens of holy scriptures or divine revelation, but through that of reason.** When philosophers speak of “god,” they are often speaking of something very different from that presented by most religious traditions. In his Metaphysics, **Aristotle** carries out a metaphysical inquiry not with questions concerning the sacred or worship, but with motion, causation, and the structure of reality itself. He arrives at a **conception of god not as a mythic figure ready to reward or punish us, but something more similar to a law of nature.** **Thomas Aquinas** inherits this framework centuries later and deepens it. Drawing on Aristotle's metaphysics, he asks whether contingent beings can account for their own existence, whether causes can regress infinitely, and what it would mean for something to exist necessarily rather than dependently. He presents to us an image of god not merely as first in a sequence, but as the very **ground of being itself**. You don't need any prior knowledge or expertise on these subjects to participate in this discussion, so come and join us as we move through the logic underpinning these conceptions of god and discover whether these arguments still carry any force today! \*\*\* We’ll have tea and light snacks, but please feel free to bring any drink or snack you’d like to share! This event will be hosted in an apartment with a well-trained dog who will be happy to meet you. If anyone has concerns about dogs, let me know so I can be mindful about keeping her from bothering you. The buzzer is Everett and Mainous—we’re on the 5th floor, apartment 16.
Filozofická kavárna (Café Philo): přemýšlet a diskutovat
Filozofická kavárna (Café Philo): přemýšlet a diskutovat
Filozofování o životě a o všem ostatním pro všechny, bez vstupného a bez přihlášky: Co si přejete, s čím si lámete hlavu, co Vás nenechá spát, o čem dumáte, o čem sníte, co Vám vrtá hlavou, čeho se bojíte, na co vzpomínáte, o čem přemýšlíte? Nenechte tyto věci jen pro sebe, zkuste rozhovor s jinými lidmi. U nás nejde jen o to, si popovídat, o to taky, ale to máte i jinde. U našeho stolu se pokusíme, spolu *filozofovat*. Nejdříve se dohodneme, jaké téma budeme diskutovat, a pak se do toho pustíme, budeme přemýšlet, rozmýšlet, promýšlet a zamýšlet se, až se nám z toho bude točit hlava, přitom nám budou podporou filozofové všech věků, abychom jí neztratili, tu hlavu. Ani byste nevěřili, jak filozofie může být osvěžující…

Slave Island on Saturday March 14th@18:00 in Kino Světozor
Join us for a movie night at **Kino Světozor** on **Saturday, March 14th.** We’ll meet at around **17:30** ***at the Světozor cafe*** before the film starts at **18:00.** I will be waiting front of the bar, so please look me up (reference my meetup photograph). We'll be watching **[Slave Island](https://www.kinosvetozor.cz/en?projection=46349)**, a movie about "northern Vietnamese electronics factories, where the workforce is predominantly female. Far from their children and husbands, they provide for families who cannot survive through traditional rice farming. The film reflects on their dehumanizing working conditions as well as life in a hierarchical society, where the sustenance of men and the upbringing of children fall solely on their shoulders. In addition to the anonymized testimonies, the film features a unique reconstruction of factory life, performed by actual factory workers." Come enjoy this screening and stay for a drink and a chat about the film afterwards! The film is shown with English subtitles. **NOTE:** Please buy your own tickets in **advance**, else last minute may be sold out (available online: [tickets](https://goout.net/en/tickets/slave-island/iutjb/)). **Kind request:** If you register to attend but later cannot make it, please update your RSVP in time — thank you!

Using Philosophy to Cope with Current Events
Using Philosophy to Cope with Current Events
So this month's prompt is more general. I think we can all agree that we are living in "unique" times that require coping skills. I think that one role and/or purpose of philosophy is to help us deal with our daily lives and our "unique" times. So, let's share our feelings and thoughts about which philosopher/philosophy we turn to in order to deal with our crazy events. Who/what helps you stay focused in your daily life and helps you sleep at night. I find that Stoicism with a little philosophical pessimism mixed in goes a long way in helping me deal with what I see as very destructive, fearful and mean spirited public policies at both the state and federal levels. Hope to see you on March 28th!
