Shambhala

We gather every Saturday at 16h for our weekly collective meditation practice. Our sessions are based on Rajadhiraja Yoga, a holistic system that integrates the classical eight-limbed (Ashtanga) yoga, Tantra, a structured series of meditation lessons, and a deep spiritual and social philosophy. The meditations are held as part of the Meditation Steps project — a non-profit initiative that aims to make meditation and yoga accessible to everyone and inspire positive change in society. ​Our facilitator Michael, has been practicing meditation for five years and guides sessions that blend dynamic and silent meditation. His approach combines movement, breath, and stillness to create a modern, grounding experience that helps people reconnect with clarity and calm. ​These sessions are in ENGLISH. ​Donation based. Suggested donation 10€. ​ ​**Location** ​​​​**Samanà Space** (🔗 [IG](https://www.instagram.com/samanasoul/)) **Address:** Calle Pujades 77-79 8 planta — Ring 2809 ​​​​🔗 [Google Maps](https://maps.app.goo.gl/p3Y4patgzNDUtQo2A) ​​​**What to Bring:** * ​​​Comfortable clothing to move freely * ​​​A water bottle to stay hydrated * ​​​An open heart and a willingness to let go and have fun! ​​​**Our Space:** * ​​​Is a shoe free zone * ​​​Alcohol or drugs are not permitted * ​​​We are a vegan space ​​​Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/samanasoul/](https://www.instagram.com/samanasoul/)

🌀 **DONATION BASED** \- Please CONFIRM & COMIT on Luma 🌀 https://luma.com/p00x5ox5 **Welcome to the Men's Tribal Gathering!!** ***This is not a therapy session...*** A small community with big vision for our collective future, a place to connect with others, with unique ideas and perspectives, holding space, **having our voice heard**. An open space for us all; to understand and feel that **we are not alone.** **Going forward** our idea is to take all that we learn and create together out in to the **real world**, not only for our personal lives or those closest to us but for others and projects looking for **support**. **Together**, as a team **forged in the fire**, getting to know each other in a way that's simply not possible with busy lives, and so many distractions around us, even in typical "social" gatherings. No single leader alone, from the ground up it will be an ongoing **collaborative effort**. If you're not a part of the core team managing logistics, themes etc. You will be encouraged/invited to lead, to host, to share you're own unique and special gifts, talents or interests in future gatherings. **Brick by brick we build this together.** ***Saturday 11 April*** what to expect: * Welcoming (open cacao & matcha bar from 17:30) * Short intro & intentions starting promptly at 18:00 * Meditation, Breathwork & Body Activation * **\* Special Tribe Member Sharing** \- TBA * Body activation & Ecstatic Dance with Pneuma * Singing & Voice Activations with Snr Dragon & Gyuri * Tribe Gathering - Group connection, reflections & sharing * Closing Circle We want **like minded men**, on a mission, with a **curious desire to find balance** within the **masculine and feminine**, leaning deeply in to **vulnerability as our strength**, **empowering ourselves** to face life head on while **inspiring each other** and those around us, to **grow, to heal** old wounds but most importantly to **have a lot of fun** doing it, **enjoying the process** even in the shadow work, **taking fun and play seriously** because life is way too serious sometimes. We all have a lot of responsibilities and so, we can experience so much release with **playful movement, dance, vocalising, harmonising, being creative and connected with others on similar path of life**... Our **core values** will stem from a **mutual respect**, of each other, of our time and energy put in to creating and participating, of the space we hold, the space itself (where the event will be hosted or where we venture outside) and that we are all as similar as we are different. There will be a **united, strong accountability theme**, pushing each other to **dive deeper** and **explore ideas**, learning to **communicate in a healthier way** so we have something fundamental for our everyday lives. **We are not perfect** and do not desire to be, only to be better, not than others but versions of ourselves, to **fully experience and enjoy life**, and have our **community to lean on**. **New bonds, friendships, a whole new tribe** 📍 **Where:** Samanà Space, Poblenou 🕖 **When:** Saturday 11 April \| 18:00 \- 22:00 register here> https://luma.com/p00x5ox5 ## ​**FAQ** ​​**Do I need to know how to dance or sing?** Absolutely NOT!!

**Rapé Circle • Breath • Embodiment** ​An intimate evening of grounding, release, and reconnection ​📍 Samaná Soul Spaces ​📅 09\.04\.2026 \| 18:30 – 20:30 ​Step into a sacred and intimate container where breath, movement, and ancestral medicine come together to guide you back into your body. ​This evening is an invitation to slow down, soften the mind, and reconnect with your inner essence. Through conscious breathwork, the sacred medicine of Rapé, and gentle embodiment practices, we create space to release what no longer serves and open to clarity, presence, and inner alignment. ​Rapé (ha-pen) is a traditional Amazonian plant medicine, used by indigenous tribes for grounding, cleansing, and deep spiritual connection. It is typically made from Mapacho (a sacred Amazonian tobacco) blended with various medicinal herbs. Unlike other plant medicines, Rapé is non-hallucinogenic and does not take you out of yourself, but rather brings you deeper into your body. Offered with respect and intention, it supports the clearing of mental fog, emotional blockages, and energetic stagnation, allowing you to arrive more fully within yourself. ​*This is a space for those who feel called to:* ​• reconnect with their body and breath ​• release emotional or energetic heaviness ​• deepen their inner awareness ​• experience sacred medicine in a safe, guided setting ​• share in authentic connection within an intimate group ​No prior experience is needed. You are welcome exactly as you are. *** ​**✨ What to expect** ​**Arrival & Introduction** ​We begin by opening the space, landing together, and setting the tone for the evening. ​**Intention Circle** ​Each participant is invited to share their name and intention, anchoring their personal journey for the session. ​**Breathwork (Wim Hof style)** ​A guided breath practice to activate the body, bring clarity, and prepare the system to receive. ​**Rapé Facilitation** ​You will be gently introduced to the medicine, its origins, and its purpose. ​The medicine is offered with prayer and intention, accompanied by live music to support your journey. ​This part of the evening invites deep grounding, release, and energetic alignment. ​A short channeled prayer and light language will follow to support integration. ​**Embodiment Movement** ​Through intuitive, guided movement, we begin to awaken the life force within the body. ​This practice supports emotional release, creative expression, and a deeper connection to your inner energy. ​**Closing Circle** ​We gently land the experience, share reflections, and integrate the journey together. *** ​**🌸 About the facilitator** ​**Magda** is a space holder devoted to guiding others back into connection with their body, energy, and inner truth. Her work weaves together embodiment practices, breathwork, kundalini bodywork and sacred plant medicines, creating grounded yet intuitive containers for transformation. ​Her approach is gentle, present, and deeply attuned. She holds space with intention and care, allowing each person to move through their own process in a way that feels safe and authentic. ​With a deep respect for the traditions behind Rapé, Magda offers this medicine as a tool for grounding, clarity, and reconnection, always guided by prayer, presence, and integrity. ​Please arrive sober and with a clear body, free from alcohol or substances, to honour the medicine and the space we are creating together. ## ​**📅 Practical Details** ​​**🗓 Sunday 12 April** **⏰ 18:30 - 20:30** **📍 Samanà Space (Poblenou)** ​​**Samanà Space** (🔗 [IG](https://www.instagram.com/samanasoul/?utm_source=luma)) **Address:** Calle Pujades 77-79 8 planta — Ring 2809 ​​​​🔗 [Google Maps](https://maps.app.goo.gl/p3Y4patgzNDUtQo2A?utm_source=luma) ​​​​​​​​**Our Space:** * ​​​​​​​​Is a shoe free zone * ​​​​​​​​Alcohol or drugs are not permitted * ​​​​​​​​We are a vegan space

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change. Unchained At Last's mission clearly meshes and addresses several of our Humanist Ten Commitments. Becca will educate us about an issue many of us may not be familiar with--but should be. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.

The emotional pain from past bad experiences easily lingers in the present, making it hard to enjoy life and create your future. Even when you think you've moved on, the negative emotions can be triggered, sending you back into the pain of that experience. And we are talking about pain; emotions such as grief, depression, anxiety, fear (or terror), boiling anger, simmering resentment, feelings of shame, blaming and regret can leave you incapacitated to a greater or lesser degree. In this local event we will be discussing the reasons why these past bad experiences have the power to affect you long after they occurred. We'll go over why the emotional pain can be so strong. We'll also discuss some simple solutions to overcome your emotional pain and be free to fully enjoy your life again. Examples of painful experiences include: * A broken relationship or divorce. * Death or loss of a loved one. * Death of a pet. * A sudden shock or bad news. * A betrayal. * Being part of an abusive relationship. * A bad injustice. * Loss of a job, position or business. * A grave illness or injury. The negative emotions from these experiences don't just go away on their own. But the good news is there is a way to clear them out of your way. Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there. This group is sponsored the Dianetics & Scientology Self-Improvement Center.
