Könyvklub: Ann Leckie -- Mellékes igazság
Könyvklub: Ann Leckie -- Mellékes igazság
Az első könyvklub alkalom Ann Leckie 2013-ban megjelent könyvét, a Mellékes igazságot veszi górcső alá. Az amerikai írónő első könyve volt, ami azonnal sok díjat elnyert neki. Többek között akad benne elnyomó birodalom, megoszló tudatok, és nem kevés (nem mindig emberi) esendőség. A triológia mindhárom kötete megjelent magyarul. Ugyan a mi nyelvünkben nem tűnik fel, de angolul az író végig "she"-ként hivatkozik szereplőire. Emiatt persze egyből sokan el is könyvelték szélsőségesen feminista könyvnek. De nem kell megijedni, ez egy nagyon jó scifi, különleges szereplőkkel, ami közel sem azért lett sztár, mert megpróbálta a gender utáni jövőt elképzelni. A könyvklub ingyenes, nem kell hozni semmit, csak saját magadat. :-) Helyszín egy budapesti kávézó lesz, szervezése folyamatban.

CTRL+ALT+ÉN - évindító művészetterápiás foglalkozás
CTRL+ALT+ÉN - évindító művészetterápiás foglalkozás
**\*\*Kérlek olvasd végig mielőtt jelentkezel\*\*** Már eleged van az újévi fogadalmakból? Mikor álltál meg utoljára (de tényleg), hogy befelé figyelj? Mi lenne, ha a tisztánlátás nem a felgyorsulásból, hanem a lassításból születne? A **CTRL+ALT+ÉN** nem az „új év, új én” narratíva (mert… nem). Ez nem célkitűzős vagy vision boardos foglalkozás. Kicsit mozgunk (akár táncolunk), alkotunk, beszélgetünk, nevetünk, sírunk, csendben ülünk, egymásra figyelünk - ilyesmik. Ránézünk közösen arra, mi tart vissza észrevétlenül, hová megy el az energiánk, és mi az, ami már nem érdemli meg a figyelmünket. Megfigyelés, tudatosítás és perspektívaváltás - gyere kíváncsiskodni :D Ez egy lehetőség arra, hogy kipróbálj valami újat, kilépj a komfortzónádból, és teret adj azoknak a érzelmeknek és gondolatoknak, amelyekre a nagy rohanásban nem jutott idő. A workshopot vezeti: **Jennifer Nyerki** (művészet- és szocioterapeuta jelölt) **Időpont: Vasárnap, Január 25. 10:00-15:00** **Helyszín: Safespace Műhely** **Részvételi díj: január 15-ig early bird 10,000 Ft / utána 12,000 Ft** **Fizetés: banki átutalással.** A helyek a befizetések sorrendjében telnek be. **Jelentkezés: thearttofreedom@gmail.com** **Mi az a művészetterápia?** *A művészetterápia egy önismereti és önfejlesztő eszköz, amely a kreatív kifejezést használja az érzelmi tudatosság és a személyes fejlődés támogatására. A művészetterápia területe sokszínű: vizuális művészetek, mozgás, tánc, zene, dráma stb. A hangsúly nem a kész alkotáson van, hanem a folyamaton és azon, amit az feltár.* **FONTOS**: *A csoportot nem ajánlom komolyabb neurológiai betegséggel élőknek és/vagy pszichiátriai kezelés alatt állóknak. A csoporton való részvétel nem helyettesíti az állapotodnak megfelelő terápiás kezelést, nem minősül pszichoterápiának.* **Mire számíthatsz:** \- nincs szükség előzetes művészeti/mozgásos/táncos tudásra vagy tapasztalatra \- változatos kreatív technikák – mozgásos és alkotós\, egyéni és csoportos gyakorlatok \- érzelmek szabad kifejezése és felfedezése \- a folyamat a lényeg\, nem az eredmény \- támogató és inspiráló közeg **Lemondási feltételek:** \- Teljes visszatérítés\, ha a lemondás több mint 7 nappal a workshop előtt történik \- 50% visszatérítés\, ha a lemondás 7 napon belül történik \- A részvétel átruházható más személyre előzetes jelzéssel \- No show \(ha nem jelensz meg\) esetén nincs visszatérítés \- Ha a csoportvezető miatt marad el\, teljes visszatérítés \- Késés esetén nincs visszatérítés
