Consciousness

[Únete a nuestro grupo de Whatsapp ](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Cp2jyUS8Z9a0AsWJ1kbV0f)Nada cambia afuera si primero no cambia la forma en que te ves a ti mismo. Este evento es una experiencia profunda de autoconocimiento y transformación, diseñada para ayudarte a identificar, cuestionar y redefinir tu autoconcepto: la imagen interna desde la cual tomas decisiones, construyes relaciones y creas tu realidad.

### From the facilitator (\* ниже есть версия на русском) “We do this every day, many, many times, and it shapes how our life unfolds now and in the future. We do it successfully or not so well, with confidence or without it, with joy or with frustration. But sometimes, unfortunately, it happens simply out of habit, and later we find ourselves with friends, a cat, or a psychotherapist, talking about how something in life doesn’t feel right. This time I invite you to consciously explore the theme of **Choice**. Around Valentine’s time, we will explore the experience of choosing in partnership and connection — through mindful contact, turning inward to sensations, listening to the body, searching for answers, and making the body our ally in this process. If this topic resonates with you, or if you simply want to reset, recharge, and fill yourself with presence and connection, I warmly invite you to this practice.” ### What will happen in the session 🌸 Gentle and respectful contact in clothes (for participants’ comfort we follow the rule: “yes” means yes, “no” means no) 💃 Conscious movement and dance interaction 🫶 Attentive communication and presence ✨ Breathing practices All practices are done fully clothed and contain no sexual or religious context. These embodied practices are about connection and about learning to feel the body more deeply. They help release inner blocks, open creativity, enrich contact with others, and create a soft, warm space for heartfelt communication 🌿 ### You can come with a partner or alone For couples — an opportunity to experience something new together and discover new dimensions of connection. For those who come alone — a safe space where you can be seen, gently filled with attention, contact, and presence, and explore conscious connection with others. *** 🗣 The session is held in Russian with English translation *** ### Facilitator Viktoria Zharkikh 📸 Instagram: @letsTantra *** ### 📅 Date & Time Sunday\, February 15 \| 17:00 – 20:30 (the studio closes at 17:30) ### 📍 Location 2 minutes from Universitat metro station *** ### 💶 Price 💶 €25 — single participation ([payment link](https://revolut.me/victorkagc?currency=EUR&amount=2500&note=contribuci%C3%B3n%20al%20evento%201)) 💞 €40 — for two people ([payment link](https://revolut.me/victorkagc?currency=EUR&amount=4000&note=contribuci%C3%B3n%20al%20evento%202)) ✨ **First session — €15** ([payment link](https://revolut.me/victorkagc?currency=EUR&amount=1500&note=contribuci%C3%B3n%20al%20evento)) Registration is confirmed by prepayment.

Мы делаем это успешно или не очень, с уверенностью или без, радуясь или огорчаясь. Но иногда, к сожалению, это происходит просто по привычке, и потом мы обнаруживаем себя с друзьями, котом или психотерапевтом, обсуждающими, что в жизни что-то не так. В этот раз я приглашаю вас осознанно пойти в тему **Выбора**. Вблизи Дня Святого Валентина мы будем исследовать явление выбора в партнерстве и контакте — через телесные практики, соприкосновение, внимание к ощущениям, поиск ответов внутри себя и попытку сделать тело своим союзником в этом процессе. Если вам откликается эта тема или просто хочется перезагрузиться, наполниться вниманием и живым контактом — приглашаю вас на эту практику.» *** ### Что будет на занятии 🌸 Мягкий и уважительный контакт в одежде (действует правило: «да» — это да, «нет» — это нет) 💃 Осознанное движение и танцевальное взаимодействие 🫶 Внимательное общение и присутствие ✨ Дыхательные практики Все практики проходят в одежде и не содержат сексуального или религиозного контекста Телесные практики помогают глубже чувствовать тело, снимать внутренние блоки, раскрывать творчество, обогащать контакт с другими и создают мягкое, тёплое пространство для душевного общения 🌿 ### Что будет на занятии 🌸 Мягкий и уважительный контакт в одежде (действует правило: «да» — это да, «нет» — это нет) 💃 Осознанное движение и танцевальное взаимодействие 🫶 Внимательное общение и присутствие ✨ Дыхательные практики Все практики проходят в одежде и не содержат сексуального или религиозного контекста.

## **Moving Beyond Us Versus Them with Sister Jenna** **Join renowned speaker, Sister Jenna, at our new Brahma Kumaris location in Chantilly, VA for this powerful event!** ## ***Beyond sides. Beyond stories. Into connection.*** In a world increasingly shaped by polarization, uncertainty, and “Us versus Them” thinking, many people are feeling weary, guarded, or disconnected, sometimes without realizing how deeply it has affected them. *Moving Beyond Us Versus Them* offers a timely and healing invitation to step out of division and into understanding. In this reflective session, Sister Jenna guides us to examine how labels, opinions, and unconscious biases quietly shape our perceptions and reactions. Rather than engaging in debate or blame, this session creates space to rise above conditioned thinking and reconnect with our shared humanity, where compassion, dignity, and mutual respect naturally emerge. This session is not about choosing sides, it’s about choosing consciousness, connection, and the courage to see one another anew. ***Sister Dr. Jenna*** *is a spiritual mentor, author, radio and TV personality, renowned speaker, and the founder of the Brahma Kumaris Meditation Museum located in Maryland. She hosted the popular America Meditating Radio Show and is a recipient of the President’s Lifetime National Community Service Award. Sister Dr. Jenna is a member of the Evolutionary Leaders Circle, a group of thought leaders from diverse disciplines in service to conscious evolution and was selected by Empower A Billion Women 2020 as one of 100 most influential leaders of 2015.* *She is the author of “[Meditation: Intimate Experiences with the Divine through Contemplative Practices](https://www.amazon.com/Meditation-Experiences-Contemplative-Practices-Sentience/dp/194502691X/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3A4J9WRQ16QAJ&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.va3qPnUsFjEWH641OraGTqBHm8wDhdhrTu3hpjHufKo.7mA_AgIvDXQuQ9_Uu4ucZgQIOKmCfKb6yBHsIqamhPY&dib_tag=se&keywords=Meditation%3A+Intimate+Experiences+with+the+Divine+through+Contemplative+Practices&qid=1753065633&sprefix=meditation+intimate+experiences+with+the+divine+through+contemplative+practices%2Caps%2C232&sr=8-1),” a profound compilation featuring insights from over 30 contributing authors and she contributed to “[Mr. President – Interfaith Perspectives on the Historic Presidency of Barack H.

A portion of all proceeds will help fund the Crystal Ashram non-profit project where the Human Activation School of Expanded Consciousness will be located. A unique musical experience called a "Sound Bath" Sound bath! What's that? According to sonic specialist Monte Hansen from Annapolis MD, "A sound bath is an immersion in sound frequency that cleans your soul." Leave your rubber ducky at home. Bring your blankey instead, for this super relaxing immersion! According to cutting-edge doctors from Harvard, some of the deepest most profound healing in the body are accomplished with sound frequency. That's old news though. A 2nd century stone relief in the Himalayan mountains shows us that Buddha and his entourage knew this before Christ walked the earth. The stone relief depicts the Buddha and his buddies playing ancient Tibetan singing bowls. A sound frequency specialist from the [Human Activation School](https://humanactivation.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=d88b4fea1b0f4ceaeb58f0e82&id=d6674b4603&e=465ba11f44), will be playing several of these rare Singing Bowls, some of which are over 200 years old. A magical alchemy of 7-12 different metals rings in the past, present, and future for our relaxing enchantment. Even modern doctors are using these old metal bowls for healing, and they are not practicing Buddhists! As a matter of fact, modern Buddhists no longer use the bowls in their practice. Come experience these gifts from the past in this NON-religious practice of our present. Come be rejuvenated or just captivated by this unique musical performance. Bring your pillows, blankeys, and yoga mats and snuggle into the comfort of the tranquil sounds. Feel free to sit, lay, or even stand! ***Did You Know?*** Singing bowls invite the mind and body into a tranquil state of being in which remarkable healing can occur, events that are unexplainable from a conventional biomedical perspective” *Music and the Meditative Mind: Toward the Science of the Ineffable*[Source](https://humanactivation.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=d88b4fea1b0f4ceaeb58f0e82&id=9222616fc4&e=465ba11f44) "The sound bath meditation provides a nurturing space to connect and grow spiritually.

Whether we’re exploring the nature of happiness, the challenges and possibilities of midlife, spirituality, culture, capitalism, parenting, or the role of art and travel in a meaningful life, every conversation is shaped by the people in the room. There’s no set leader or rigid agenda—just a shared commitment to listen as much as we speak. We start with brief introductions focused on what makes you *you* (not your LinkedIn bio), then dive straight into whatever is on people’s minds. The direction of each meetup emerges organically, making every event unique. MANDATORY: PLEASE REVIEW OUR COMMUNITY GUIDELINES IN THE GROUP DESCRIPTION. Everyone is expected to engage in respectful conversations and listen deeply as well as share. We have a zero tolerance policy of sexual harassment and hate speech.
