Constellations familiales 30 Mai
Bonjour !
Il reste 2 places pour la session de constellations familiales :
* **samedi 30 mai 9h30 - 13h30**
* **67 rue de Charenton - Paris 12e**
* **groupe d’une douzaine de personnes**
* **25€**
**Être représentant·e : transformer aussi quelque chose pour soi**
Dans une constellation, personne n’est choisi·e au hasard.
Même lorsque les participant·es ne se connaissent pas, des résonances étonnantes apparaissent entre le rôle incarné et l’histoire personnelle du ou de la représentant·e.
Être représentant·e, c’est donc :
* contribuer au processus de transformation d’une autre personne,
* tout en vivant soi-même un mouvement intérieur en lien avec son propre système familial.
Chaque participant·e est ainsi engagé·e à la fois individuellement et collectivement dans l’expérience. Et c’est précisément cette dimension de résonance et de solidarité humaine qui rend cette approche si puissante et touchante.
Si tu souhaites vivre une expérience collective d’exploration des dynamiques familiales et transgénérationnelles, ou si tu as des questions sur la session, écris-moi directement !
Bonne semaine,
Blandine Heude
French-English Language Café 🇫🇷☕🇺🇸 / Furamori Échange Franco-Anglais
What happens when you put 3 French and 3 English speakers at the same café table in Paris?
Furamori organizes small curated groups of 4-6 people - 1-3 French speakers and 1-3 English speakers - in a cozy café in Paris. You practice each other's language naturally, the way it's meant to be: over coffee, with real people, about real life.
**How it works:** \- You sign up and complete a short profile on our website \- We match you into a group of 6 \(French \+ English\) \- You receive the café location and your group details before the event \- You show up\, sit down\, and let the conversation flow
⚠️ **IMPORTANT:** RSVP does **NOT** reserve your spot.
You must register on our website to be placed in a group:
👉 [furamori.com](furamori.com)
**This is for you if:** \- You're French and learning English \(any level\) \- You're an English speaker \(British\, American\, Australian\, or anyone\!\) and learning French \(any level\) \- You want to actually get to know people \- You're curious about the other culture
🎟️ Tickets are €5 per person. You must register and pay via our website to attend: furamori.com , RSVP on Meetup does not guarantee a spot - registration on our site does. You pay for your own drinks at the café.
Depending on demand, not everyone may get a spot for this event. If that happens, feel free to apply again for the next one as we prioritize returning applicants.
📍 Location is shared after registration.

Deep Talk / Snacks PicNic In English ☀️
🍩🍰 Let's have a weekly deep talk in an intimate Parisian café, share a drink and have a good time with like-minded, lovely and chill people. 🥂☕
We're here to sip life in a childish, simple and non-serious way. 🙃
When was the last time you had a meaningful conversation? Or deepened your relationship with someone in your life? It's not easy to have a deep conversation.
While small talk, which is typically casual and light-hearted, can help break the ice, it may not necessarily help you form a deep, emotional connection with someone. Whether it's with your friends, family, colleagues or romantic partners, having meaningful conversations is important for creating strong bonds.
"Meaningful conversations help us understand ourselves and those around us better. They involve sharing important aspects of ourselves and actively listening, validating and connecting with others."
We believe that a happy and healthy life is built on beautiful relationships and that loneliness kills us. That's it. It's not the number of friends that counts, it's the quality of the relationship.
✅ This group is adressed to :
● People who want to build deep, genuine and caring relationships in a small group that looks the same, where they feel comfortable and emotionally safe to talk emotionally and get intimate about anything in their lives.
● Simple, loving, kind, hyper/sensitive and lovely people who spend a lot of time in their bubble thinking about the meaning of life, passionate about personal development, philosophy, meaningful conversations, debates ....
⛔ Please don't subscribe if :
● You don't see yourself in the group's aims and beliefs.
● You're travelling for a short period of time and don't live or intend to live in Paris.
● You are not sure if you will be able to come, please update your status to allow others on the waiting list to join. An absence without notice will result in an irrevocable ban.
Progress :
● ❗ For reservations, I'll send you a private Meetup message at least 5 hours before the meeting to confirm your reservation. If I don't receive a reply 2 hours before the meeting, I will send you a second message to let you know that you will be replaced by someone on the waitlist.
● 💚 We keep the session small, cosy and relaxed in a quiet place, prioritising regularity to encourage intimacy, connection, listening and speaking. (\~ 5/6 people)
● 🔖 On arrival, if you feel comfortable, you will be suggested to choose and associate several drawn Feelings and Needs cards to express how you really feel at the moment, to talk about ourselves and communicate effectively.
● 📝 The best way to make progress is to make the conversation easy and natural, with everyone making an effort to suggest and write down what you want to talk about. You can write down your favourite topics/questions before the meeting. The meeting is participative and invite everyone if you feel comfortable being a leader and a power of suggestion.
Anyway, to keep the meeting running smoothly, I'll animate the meeting to make sure the conversation doesn't get wild or boring and I wouldn't hesitate to reframe people. In case of lack of inspiration we have a lot of deep conversation question card game which can help to find interesting questions.
● 🍕 (Not compulsory) After the meeting we can finish in a nearby restaurant for those who wish to relax or continue our conversation.
Advice for a good moment :
● Leave your ego and mask at home, we are not here to impress anyone but to be ourselves with our strength, weakness, pride and shame.
Come with an open/deep/emotional/complex thought and vulnerability.
● Ask open-ended questions and invite the other person to describe what a situation was like for them or how they felt.
● Don't hesitate to be vulnerable and share information about yourself if needed.
Consider sharing personal information first to gain the other person's trust.
● Adopt an attitude of curiosity and genuine interest in what the other person is saying. Be thoughtful and try to put yourself in the other person's shoes so that you can see things from their perspective. Be truthful, caring and honest.
● Listen actively and ask follow-up questions.
● Be empathetic and offer emotional validation so that they feel seen and heard.
It is forbidden to judge, but try to understand.
● ⏱ Be aware of your speaking time for Equally Speak.
● 🤫 Be aware never to provoke political or religious ideologies, but to accept differences of belief. Advice on non-violent communication can be given in the meeting to learn not to unintentionally hurt anyone when requested or needed.
● 🚨 Remember to maintain a safe, and benevolent environment. People who are considered to be disruptive, problematic or simply not in tune with the energy of the group will not be allowed to return.
Finally, we're hug-friendly !!! 🤗

Full Moon Picnic Sat May 30, 8:30-10:30 PM, Pont des Arts
**Ahoy there,**
Next full moon picnic will be Saturday May 30 from 8:30 - 10:30 P.M. Moonrise will be around 10:10 P.M. Sunset around 9:40 PM.
I may not make it back from my tree house in time but never fear, Catherine and Charles will be there to welcome you.
The Pont des Arts is undergoing renovations for the botched renovation 3 years ago that used a poor design to fasten the wood planks. Most of the bridge will remain open full width during the work. We will meet by one of the benches in the open section, which is currently towards the Left Bank side of the bridge. Hard to predict how work will advance over the next week. So finding us may involve a little bit of treasure hunt adventure. You’re welcome! In the unlikely event we will assemble below on the quai on the Right Bank side.
May is known by American Indians for the Full Flower Moon because of the wide appearance of flowers during this month. It's also known as Full Corn Planting Moon (for obvious reasons) and as the Milk Moon.
Bob, I swear you're just copy pasting that from your last email for our previous Full Moon Picnic.
Yes, that’s because this is the second full moon of the same month, which only happens once in a blue moon. 🤣
**WHAT**: Everyone brings food and drink to share.
**WHERE**: Pont des Arts. We'll gather around the 2nd or 3rd bench from the Right Bank side of the bridge. Nearest metros: Pont Neuf and Louvre-Rivoli.
**WHEN**: Saturday May 30 from 8:30-10:30 P.M.
**WHY**: Share one of the most memorable sights in Paris with some of the nicest people around.
**WHO**: You and your friends.
**THEME**: Blue
**BIRTHDAYS**: Are you’re a Gemini? Bring a cake and let me know so we can celebrate your birthday this month and blow out the world’s largest birthday candle.
**HOW** to find us: Keep your eyes out for a bunch of lunatics eating, drinking an chatting in English and French.
**PUZZLER**: Raise your hand if you’re vegetarian. Vegan? Beegan?(vegan + honey. I know.) Flexitarian?(occasional meat). Vegan before 6 PM?(yes that’s actually a thing.) Forget about Omnivore. Forget about Carnivore. How about Cannibal? How about Sausage eating Cannibal? Why are you cringing? You're the product of a Sausage eating Cannibal. Don’t try to puzzle this out. Just go ahead and scroll to the answer before your stomach turns queasy.
**PUZZLER ANSWER**: Our galaxy, the Milky Way has become quite large feasting on other smaller galaxies. About 8 billion years ago, a study said, that a smaller dwarf galaxy was gobbled up by a young and hungry Milky Way. The study was not 8 billion years ago (that’s why the 2 commas) but 8 years ago. The dwarf galaxy was named Gaia Sausage because it was sorta kinda in the shape of a sausage according to the astronomers analyzing the data. They had been up for 2 days without eating and were definitely not vegan.
[https://www.cmu.edu/news/stories/archives/2018/july/gaia-sausage.html](https://www.cmu.edu/news/stories/archives/2018/july/gaia-sausage.html)
Turns out that just this month, the Milky Way gobbled up another galaxy, according to a study, 10 billion years ago. (I’m using commas the way Trump uses legal loopholes.) The poor meal this time is called the Loki galaxy, named after the Norse god of mischief. The remnants of this dwarf galaxy are hard to detect and tricky to explain because the left over stars are moving in opposite directions. Confusing and mischievous.
[https://edition.cnn.com/2026/05/23/science/milky-way-loki-galaxy](https://edition.cnn.com/2026/05/23/science/milky-way-loki-galaxy)
In this eat or be eaten universe galaxies are cannibalizing each other. So far the Milky Way has eaten its way to an expanding belt-line.
Ciao for niao,
**Captain Bob**

Anitalk Station
🍥🍜 Welcome to Anitalk Station!🏯👺
Welcome anime and manga lovers far and wide! This group is for anyone who wants to build real connections and friendships through a shared passion for Japanese pop culture. Whether you are a local, an expat, or someone newly moved to the area, this group is all about creating a relaxed, low-pressure space to geek out together under the sun.
While our primary focus is Japanese, Anitalk Station is a truly multilingual hub. We express our love for anime and manga using English, French, and whatever our members' native languages may be!
🎯 Our Goal
Textbooks are great, but the best way to learn and connect is through what we love. Our goal is to break down language barriers and make socializing easier by using anime and manga as our "universal language." We want to create a welcoming "station" where people from different cultural backgrounds can cross paths, share their favorite series, and find lifelong otaku friends.
👥 Who should join?
All skill levels—both in anime knowledge and language proficiency—are welcome! This group is for you if:
You are a passionate fan of anime, manga, or games and want a space to talk about your favorite characters or latest watches.
You want to practice speaking Japanese, English, or French in a casual, real-world setting.
You are looking to expand your social circle and meet open-minded, international friends outside your usual routine.
🌳 What we do at our events (How it works)
We host casual, in-person gatherings in beautiful local parks and green spaces, bringing together a vibrant group of up to 20 people.
To make sure socializing is easy and everyone gets a chance to have meaningful conversations (without getting lost in a huge crowd), we split into smaller, cozy picnic circles of 4–6 people spread across the grass. We also mix the groups halfway through so you can meet even more friends!
🎁 SPECIAL GIFT (First-come, first-served!) 🎁
We will be giving away FREE anime stickers (ONE PIECE, Jujutsu Kaisen, and more) to early arrivals! Come grab yours before they run out! ✨
📅 Next Event Details (English)
Bring your friends or come alone, all nationalities are welcome!
Let's meet up at 7:30 pm on Sunday, May 31st for an apéro/picnic on the riverside just across île Saint-Louis (Quai de la Tournelle). Bring your drinks and something to eat and let's talk about your favorite anime and manga together! The weather is supposed to be amazing...or at least we hope it will be : )

Neurospicy Paris ☕ Morning Meetup for English-speaking Neurodivergent
**A meetup for neurodivergent adults in Paris.**
I’m neurodivergent myself, and I haven’t found the kind of space I’d actually want to go to here — especially in English.
So I’m starting one.
This is for people with ADHD, autism, AuDHD, OCD — or if you just feel like your brain works a bit differently.
No diagnosis needed.
**🧠 What to expect**
* Small group
* Low-pressure
* You don’t have to be social
* Come and go as you like
* English Spoken
**Each meetup has a loose theme** — just something to orbit around if conversation stalls.
For this one:
> **“Paris is a lot — how are you finding it?”**
That could mean:
* daily routines
* work
* social life
* or just… surviving the metro
No pressure to talk about it — it’s just there if useful.
May Book Club: What my Bones Know by Stephanie Foo
For the meeting in May, we'll read and discuss **What my bones know: A memoir of a complex trauma by Stephanie Foo**
Description from Goodreads:
*By age thirty, Stephanie Foo was successful on paper: She had her dream job as an award-winning radio producer at This American Life and a loving boyfriend. But behind her office door, she was having panic attacks and sobbing at her desk every morning. After years of questioning what was wrong with herself, she was diagnosed with complex PTSD—a condition that occurs when trauma happens continuously, over the course of years.*
*Both of Foo's parents abandoned her when she was a teenager, after years of physical and verbal abuse and neglect. She thought she'd moved on, but her new diagnosis illuminated the way her past continued to threaten her health, relationships, and career. She found limited resources to help her, so Foo set out to heal herself, and to map her experiences onto the scarce literature about C-PTSD.*
*In this deeply personal and thoroughly researched account, Foo interviews scientists and psychologists and tries a variety of innovative therapies. She returns to her hometown of San Jose, California, to investigate the effects of immigrant trauma on the community, and she uncovers family secrets in the country of her birth, Malaysia, to learn how trauma can be inherited through generations. Ultimately, she discovers that you don't move on from trauma—but you can learn to move with it.*
*Powerful, enlightening, and hopeful, What My Bones Know is a brave narrative that reckons with the hold of the past over the present, the mind over the body—and examines one woman's ability to reclaim agency from her trauma.*
**\*New to book club? You're welcome to join our discussion. We'll discuss our thoughts on the book and share related topics.**
**\*Discussions held in English**
Lost & Found — A Picnic Philosophy Talk
☕ Café Philo Paris — English Edition
A philosophical discussion space open to everyone — no prerequisites, no judgment, no dogma.
Each session explores a different theme through concrete questions that touch our lives, our beliefs, and our relationship with the world.
This is neither a lecture nor a class: we meet, we think out loud together, and each person freely shares their experience and perspective.
✅ Format
* Intimate circle discussion — everyone speaks freely
* Open exchange in a climate of listening and respect
* Duration: approximately 2 hours
* 12 people maximum per session to preserve the quality of exchanges
🎟️ Participation: €5 — Registration secures your spot and helps maintain a welcoming and respectful atmosphere.
From time to time, special editions are organised — different formats, different settings, sometimes free. This picnic session is one of them.
🌿 Special Edition — Picnic in the Park
Instead of a café, we're taking the conversation outside. Bring something to share, sit on the grass, and let's talk about life under the open sky.
🎙️ Topic : "Do we really need to know where we're going?"
To get you thinking before we meet :
* Is feeling lost a failure — or the beginning of something real?
* Do you actually know what you want, or do you just know what you're supposed to want?
* Have you ever chosen a path just to stop people from asking questions?
* If nobody expected anything from you, what would you do with your life?
* Are you building the life you want, or the life that makes sense to others?
* Do you trust yourself enough to not know — and keep going anyway?
* 7 spots only
* Free entry — just bring food or drinks to share
* 7th arrondissement, Paris — exact location shared once registered
*
