**Online 1-hour women’s circle** ✨ Offered on a donation basis, give what feels right for you. This is a gentle online gathering for women to slow down, reconnect with themselves, and share space with others in a supportive and non-judgmental way. On Sunday evening, we come together to soften the transition into a new week, creating a moment to pause, reflect, and be present. During this 1-hour session, we will move through: * a guided meditation to arrive and settle into the body * a journaling practice to connect with what is alive within you * a sharing circle, where you are welcome to speak or simply listen No previous experience with meditation, journaling, or sharing circles is needed. You are welcome exactly as you are. This is a space where every question, every feeling, and every story is met with care — a space to be witnessed, and to witness other women, with openness, respect, and presence. You can join from the comfort of your home and participate in the way that feels right for you. 🕊 Please have a notebook and pen nearby, and find a quiet, comfortable space where you can be undisturbed for the hour. ✨ Reminder: This event runs on a **donation basis**, so please give what feels right for you.

**Hibernation Evening – Rest, Reflect & Reconnect** Winter invites us to slow down, rest, and turn our attention inward. Instead of rushing into new plans, this evening is an opportunity to ease into stillness from a grounded and rooted place. You’re warmly invited to a Hibernation Evening at my artist studio in Den Bosch. During this two-hour gathering, we’ll create a cozy and supportive space to take a look at your inner landscape, reconnect with your inner strength, and listen to your dreams. From this place of calm and clarity, new and honest directions can naturally emerge. The evening will include gentle meditation, journaling, and small creative exercises, accompanied by soft sounds, warm tea, and cozy lighting. No prior experience is needed—just curiosity and openness. Please bring a journal / sketchbook in case you feel inspired to express something along the way and a cushion to sit on. **Practical details:** * 🕖 Start time: 19:00 * 🚪 Doors open: 18:45, doors close: 19:15 * 📍 Location: Artist studio in Den Bosch (shared after signup) **Sign-up:** To join, please message me on WhatsApp at **+31 616 054 906**, and I’ll add you to the event group.

I look forward to welcoming you for a peaceful evening of rest, reflection, and reconnection!

Attention all sword-fighters and adventurers, from budding enthusiasts to seasoned practitioners!

Philosophical discussions about fundamental human questions. It’s not a lecture! It’s participants like you who make the discussion a success, organizers just facilitate it. We bring our most puzzling questions - along with creativity, curiosity and genuine interest to enrich ourselves with perspectives of others. This usually makes Socrates Café event a truly inspiring one for people with very different backgrounds. We discuss, we inquire, we think aloud - respect is the main rule. Here is a list of questions we have previously discussed: [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/133sfywQ81G2jcQ4acXESK2-BCosHipvMNQ7w1pj1WL8/edit?usp=sharing](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/133sfywQ81G2jcQ4acXESK2-BCosHipvMNQ7w1pj1WL8/edit?usp=sharing) Some practical stuff: 1. Everyone is welcome, but not all behaviors are welcome. If there is anything that may prevent you from participating in a respectful discussion, leave them outside before you come into the discussion. If you cannot do so, you will be asked to leave. 2. Please try to arrive on time so that you can participate in the whole discussion. If you are running late, please give us a heads up so we can hold your spot, otherwise it may be given to someone on the waitlist. If you cannot make it, please cancel as soon as possible, as frequent no-shows will be moved to the waiting list. 3. For those on the waiting list, feel free to stop by if you're in the area anyway, because last-minute spots may be available. An overflow event at a nearby cafe can be organized if there are enough people and extra moderators. 4. It is sometimes necessary to challenge others' ideas in the process - you are welcome to challenge ideas as long as it does not turn into something personal with the person who presented the idea. The format of the discussion is designed to minimize one-on-one debates so that the entire group can explore a question in a collaborative way. You can read more background about Socrates Café in the meetup group description, and if you have any questions - feel free to ask! See you soon!

I update the booking as early as Thursday; 5.5 euro is charged. Pay and in Please make sure you can make it then sign up. Please do not cancel the last day.
