**Cérémonie Breathwork & Cacao** Réconcilier le féminin et le masculin. **Dimanche8 mars – 18h30 à 20h45** **Adresse : 64 Rue des Tournelles 75003** **Inscription nécessaire via le lien** **https://www.billetweb.fr/breathwork-et-cacao56** La respiration connectée est une pratique de transformation profonde, qui agit par le souffle, le corps et la conscience. Il ne s’agit pas d’hyperventilation, mais d’une respiration fluide et continue — sans pause entre l’inspire et l’expire. Ce rythme ouvre un état intérieur particulier de conscience modifié, où les tensions, émotions ou mémoires accumulées peuvent se libérer naturellement. Il s’agit de libérer l’espace occupé par le passé pour retrouver notre essence vivante dans le présent — là où tout peut être recréé. Le breathwork agit en profondeur sur notre système nerveux, allégeant les automatismes de fuite, de lutte, de figement et de soumission ou recherche d’approbation. De là renaît une capacité créative, libre et ouverte face à la vie. Le Cacao soutient ce processus en douceur et en amplifie la profondeur et l'intégration. Cependant la prise de Cacao est facultative. La musique, le tambour et un toucher discret viennent soutenir la libération des nœuds énergétiques. Inspirée du Rebirthing et de la Respiration Holotropique, cette approche s’adresse à celles et ceux qui souhaitent : alléger ce qui limite leur énergie vitale, ce qui restreint leur perception et leur réponse à la vie, calmer le mental et le stress, ressentir davantage d’unité entre le corps, le cœur et l’esprit, connecter les profondeurs de leur être. La respiration connectée que je propose est une synergie intégrative entre la puissance exploratoire transpersonnelle de la respiration holotropique, et la libération émotionnelle du rebirthing. " Ce processus apparemment simple, combinant respiration, musique évocatrice et d’autres formes de son, possède un potentiel extraordinaire pour ouvrir la voie à l’exploration de tout le spectre du monde intérieur. » — Stanislav Grof Aucune expérience préalable n’est nécessaire. Chaque session est une exploration guidée et sécurisée, accompagnée par la musique, la présence, et le tambour. Participation : 50 € Participation petits budgets ( RSA, chomage ) 35 € Infos : [ilariainscriptions@gmail.com](mailto:ilariainscriptions@gmail.com) [ilariarubei.com](http://www.ilariarubei.com/)

**Our March pick is *God of the Woods* by Liz Moore.** **This month’s novel is an award-winning literary mystery that blends family drama with psychological suspense. It explores women’s voices and relationships while delivering an exciting, eerie, and deeply suspenseful story. The book is 576 pages in print or 14 hours and 35 minutes on audiobook.** Early morning, August 1975: a camp counselor discovers an empty bunk. Its occupant, Barbara Van Laar, has gone missing. Barbara isn’t just any thirteen-year-old: she’s the daughter of the family that owns the summer camp and employs most of the region’s residents. And this isn’t the first time a Van Laar child has disappeared. Barbara’s older brother similarly vanished fourteen years ago, never to be found. As a panicked search begins, a thrilling drama unfolds. Chasing down the layered secrets of the Van Laar family and the blue-collar community working in its shadow, Moore’s multi-threaded story invites readers into a rich and gripping dynasty of secrets and second chances. It is Liz Moore’s most ambitious and wide-reaching novel yet.

The topic for March is "Our Bodies, Ourselves" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!

Dance with us in the afternoon then you can still go out in the evening! **Sponsor: All Soles Contra and Square Dancing, First Unitarian Universalist Church, 93 W. Weisheimer Rd., Columbus OH 43214** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other.

Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 1:30 - 2:00, followed by dancing 2:00 - 430. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner.
