Psychologists

Muchos intentan “alcanzar” la paz como si fuera un estado que se consigue haciendo más cosas. Más técnicas. Más control. Más esfuerzo. Y sin embargo, la sensación interna no cambia. La calma no suele depender de añadir algo nuevo. Depende de dejar de sostener aquello que la interfiere. Este encuentro presencial está orientado a identificar qué dinámicas internas están manteniendo tensión, ruido mental o resistencia emocional, y cómo empezar a retirarlas de forma práctica. Trabajaremos: – qué es realmente la agitación interna y cómo se mantiene – por qué intentar “forzar la calma” suele generar más tensión – qué cargas psicológicas sigues sosteniendo sin darte cuenta – cómo empezar a despejar espacio mental sin luchar contigo No es una sesión teórica ni una experiencia mística. Es un espacio práctico, claro y aplicable. Este encuentro es para ti si: – sientes que tu mente rara vez descansa – arrastras preocupaciones que no terminan de cerrarse – percibes tensión interna incluso cuando “todo va bien” – quieres abordar la paz desde un enfoque realista y entrenable Formato: Presencial Hora: 10:45 Lugar: Obrador 365 Rda. de Sant Pere, 26, Eixample, 08010 Barcelona Aportación: 5 € (gastos de organización) Este es un evento colaborativo junto al grupo “El Club de las Mentes Brillantes”, creando un espacio compartido para profundizar en el trabajo interior desde una perspectiva práctica y consciente. No necesitas experiencia previa. Solo disposición para observar con honestidad lo que estás sosteniendo.

**Expert Roundtable · International Women’s Day · Barcelona** **Reclaiming Female Sexuality: East, West & Innovation** \- Find the booking link in the comments\. If you’ve ever wondered why your desire changed, why intimacy feels different, or whether something is “wrong” with you - we warmly invite you into this conversation. From low libido and painful sex to postpartum shifts and menopause changes, we’ll unpack what’s happening physiologically, emotionally, and culturally. For too long, female sexuality has been treated as dysfunction, disconnected from the nervous system and hormones, or measured by technology without context or care. This roundtable brings together: • **Western Medicine** — hormones, desire, libido, discomfort across life stages • **Eastern Wisdom** — sexual energy, embodiment, pelvic vitality • **FemTech & AI** — innovation, ethics, and the future of women’s health Followed by an open 20-30 minutes Q&A. Speakers: **[Stefanie Kauffmann](https://www.womens.es/equipo/stephanie-kauffman/)** – Pelvic Health Specialist **[Carina Greweling](https://www.linkedin.com/in/gutcoachcarina/)** – Integrative Sexuality **[Willow Star](https://www.instagram.com/withwillowstar/)** – Sex Therapist **[Juliane Romano](https://www.julianaromanocoaching.com/)** – Moderator * **Sunday March 8th, 10:45AM - 1:00PM** * **Get your tickets at**: find the link in the comments or send DM * **Location:** A private members’ club next to metro Diagonal The venue offers a breakfast and brunch menu, giving you the opportunity to arrive, order something delicious, and ease into the conversation.

Vivimos rodeados de estímulos que compiten por segundos de atención. Luces, pantallas, titulares, promesas brillantes. Pero mientras algo capta tu mirada… algo más ocurre fuera de cuadro. *Desatención* no es solo una muestra visual: es un recorrido donde lo evidente distrae y lo sutil susurra.

¿Cuál es la relación entre los filósofos y la ciudad de Barcelona? ¿Cómo pasaron por ella? ¿Qué reflexiones han surgido de su encuentro y cuáles siguen ocultas en los callejones de la ciudad? Como hacían los filósofos peripatéticos, la reflexión se desarrollará también en movimiento. En cada etapa, un filósofo y una idea permitirán que se desplieguen las ideas sobre la idea de ciudad. De hecho, el hilo conductor del recorrido es la propia idea de «ciudad». Será un pensar caminando, un cuestionar conociendo. El "Tour" es una experiencia colectiva de diálogo filosófico apta para tod@s, tanto para l@s que conocen bien la filosofía como para l@s que no la conocen en absoluto. Para todas las edades y perspectivas. El recorrido dura alrededor de 1 hora y 45 minutos. Al finalizar, podrás realizar un aporte libre, de acuerdo con lo que consideres que ha valido la experiencia. ¿Qué esperas para animarte a vivir esta nueva practica filosófica? CÓMO PARTICIPAR 1.

**About The Peer Integration Circle** The peer psychedelic integration circle is in collaboration with Keith Miller, LCSW-C and [Calliope Health](https://calliope.health/). This group is for those who have already had experiences with psychedelics. Other groups would be more suitable for those that have not had psychedelic experiences. ***Please note!!! RSVP is required for this event.*** Psychedelic integration is a way of turning the insights and experiences we have when we use psychedelics into lasting behavior and lifestyle changes. It’s a process of becoming whole, moving from altered states to altered traits. A Peer Integration Circle is a group meeting where people take turns listening to and sharing their experiences, thoughts, and feelings relating to psychedelic integration. **Cost** Free **Co-Facilitators** Keith Miller, LCSW-C and Katie **This group may be right for you if you:** * Have past experience using psychedelics * Want to talk through your psychedelic experiences openly with supportive people * Seek additional strategies for continuing your integration process * Wish to support others in their personal growth within an inclusive and judgment-free space **This group may NOT be right for you if you:** * Hope that attending might replace your need for professional treatment of any mental health problems you might have * Are looking for group psychotherapy, medical care, or psychiatric treatment or advice * Had a challenging experience with psychedelics that continues to cause you distress * Want to find out where to access illegal substances or guides or practitioners working “underground” **How it Works** Here are a few things to know about how our peer psychedelic integration group works: * Tea and water will be provided * Please plan to attend the full duration of the event. Late arrivals and early departures disrupt the safety of our space. Doors will close at 6:55pm * There is a 15-person limit for this event, so that everyone will have the chance to speak and be heard.

Thank you for respecting the safety of the space we are co-creating. **Finally** * *We ask you not to show up without registration.* * Attending these meetings does not create a treatment relationship. Any attendees requiring medical or psychiatric treatment will be offered referrals to professional care. * If you have concerns about accessibility, please contact the facilitator at the email below. * If you wish to speak to somebody about difficult psychedelic experiences and are unsure where to turn, immediate and free peer support is available from the psychedelic helpline [Fireside Project](https://firesideproject.org/).

If Saturday in DC happens to work better, Danny will also perform the program at a house concert hosted by Matt and Abigail Chingos.
