**T’as l’impression que ton esprit ne s’arrête jamais ?** 🤯 Que même quand tout est calme autour de toi… ça continue à tourner à l’intérieur ? Après s’être libérées du bruit en avril, on t’invite à franchir la deuxième étape ✨ **Le 30 mai**, on quitte le mental pour revenir au corps. Un moment pour ralentir, respirer, et surtout… ressentir. À travers un enchaînement doux et profond : •⁠ ⁠Stretching •⁠ ⁠Gainage •⁠ ⁠Méditation Ton corps va relâcher, s’ouvrir… et se poser. Et parce que prendre soin de soi passe aussi par la douceur, on terminera avec une collation saine (fruits, smoothie, plateau à partager). 👉 **L’objectif ?** Te reconnecter à toi-même, retrouver du calme à l’intérieur, et repartir plus ancrée, plus alignée. 🗓️ **30 mai** 👥 **Places limitées** (petit groupe pour préserver l’intimité) Que tu aies été là au premier atelier ou non, tu es le/la bienvenu·e. 🫂 Il reste encore quelques places… et peut-être la tienne. On t’attend. ✨

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**

**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.

Bonjour, Bienvenue pour ce sixième atelier d'écriture ! Pendant 2h, je vous proposerai plusieurs consignes d’écriture : un premier exercice d’échauffement pour délier nos plumes, une contrainte ludique pour faire surgir le sens là où on ne l’attend pas forcément et des temps d’écriture plus longs pour que vous plongiez dans vos imaginaires. Chaque moment d’écriture sera suivi d’un temps de lecture (pas obligatoire mais encouragé !). Si vous le souhaitez, vous pourrez amener un texte court que vous avez déjà écrit. Je proposerai à la fin de notre atelier un temps où chacun pourra lire un de ses textes, un peu comme une scène ouverte. Les occasions de lire ou de faire lire ses écrits ne sont pas toujours légion, mais la fin de notre atelier en sera une :) Nous nous retrouverons dans la salle d’une petite école de musique, au 28 rue Eugène Sue, 75018. C'est la boutique qui donne sur la rue, où il y a écrit "Graines de Sons". Quand vous arrivez, vous pouvez toquer à la porte. Le tarif est de 10€, à payer en espèces à votre arrivée. Il y aura du café, du thé et de l'eau sur place. (Il vous sera demandé de retirer vos chaussures quand vous arriverez.) Au plaisir de vous rencontrer et de partager avec vous ce temps d'écriture !

☕ 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 * 📩 To join this session, contact Josh directly on WhatsApp : 👉 [https://wa.me/33649853900](https://wa.me/33649853900) Send the message "picnic paris" and he'll send you all the details. 📲 Want to stay updated on future sessions?
