'Active Hope' Part 4 - The final session of the book club 'Cherishing the Earth' led by Alison Bybee and David Carter. Join us for insightful discussions over tea and cake, as we explore a book that celebrates and reflects on our planet, searching for a spiritual response to the ecological crisis that confronts us all. We will meet on the 3rd Sunday of every month for four months. The book, *Cherishing the Earth – Nourishing the Spirit*, edited by Maria Curtis, presents a range of Unitarian responses to the global environmental crisis. Contributors include ministers, lay people, and children, writing from diverse theological and ethical perspectives, exploring what it might mean to live in right relationship with the Earth. Their insights range from the prophetic and political to the practical and intensely personal, but all share a sense of gratitude for the sacred gift of life. Maria Curtis asks what changes we need to make in ourselves and in our society if we are to work towards healing the Earth and restoring balance to the global ecosystem: *“We need to re-imagine what a healthy relationship between humanity and the natural world might look like, one conducive to the flourishing of all beings onEarth.”* Rev. Dr Maria Curtis is a Unitarian minister with a background in education and psychology. Our four book club sessions: **18th January: Prophetic Voices** **15th February: Honouring the Earth** **15th March: Changing Hearts and Minds** **19th April: Active Hope and Young Voices** Each session will be standalone so that you can attend all, several or just one..

**NOVA Sapiens™** Struggling with constant anxiety, stress, fear, or panic attacks? This is for you: **One session. A different level of you.** **When your system feels like it’s “going too fast”** Anxiety is not a thinking problem. Panic is not a personality problem. Fear spirals are not irrational behavior. They are **nervous system activation patterns that have become self-reinforcing.** When this happens, the system can feel like: racing thoughts you cannot slow down sudden waves of fear or dread physical anxiety with no clear reason, looping “what if” scenarios, emotional overwhelm that feels uncontrollable, difficulty making even simple decisions. You are not broken. Your system is **stuck in threat activation mode.** **A neuroscience-led** **clarity & nervous system reset session.** A deeply restorative, neuroscience-informed experience designed for everyone seeking to reset the nervous system, restore mental clarity, and rebuild emotional balance in a supported environment. Set in the natural calm, this session blends modern brain science with structured recovery practices to support sustainable inner change, resilience, ​and self-regulation. ## **NOVA Sapiens™ 19th April** A psychotherapeutic session based on neuroscience ​ **WHO THIS IS FOR** **WHEN YOUR BODY IS IN ALERT MODE… YOUR MIND CAN’T THINK CLEARLY** ​This session is for you if you are experiencing: ⚡racing thoughts you cannot slow down ⚡sudden waves of anxiety or fear ⚡looping “what if” scenarios ⚡emotional overwhelm for no clear reason ⚡difficulty calming your system once it activates ⚡ you experience physical tension, restlessness, panic-like internal states (mild to moderate) Then you already know: **this is not a thinking problem.** **It is a nervous system activation pattern.** **YOU ARE NOT BROKEN** Your system is not malfunctioning. It is: ⚡ over-activated ⚡ pattern-looped ⚡ responding as if something is “not safe” ⚡ stuck in a predictive fear cycle This is learnable, visible, and interruptible. **​HOW THIS IS DIFFERENT** ​This is not: ⚡talk therapy ⚡emotional processing session ⚡long-term treatment ⚡spiritual calming work ​This is: **applied nervous system work for real-time stabilization** **​** ​ **What this session is** This is a **live, structured nervous system regulation session** designed to help ​ ⚡reduce internal threat activation patterns and restore baseline stability ⚡understand your anxiety pattern structure ⚡reduce internal threat activation in real time ⚡interrupt looping fear cycles ⚡restore cognitive and emotional clarity ⚡build a simple regulation framework you can use again ​This is not therapy. This is not coaching. ​This is **applied nervous system work in real time.** This is not a conversation, ​This is a **structured psychological intervention for clarity.** **What happens in this hour.** **​**Working directly with your current activation patterns. **1\. MAP YOUR ACTIVATION SYSTEM** We identify: 👉what triggers your nervous system escalation 👉how the fear loop begins and repeats 👉where cognitive amplification starts 👉 ​what your personal anxiety pattern structure is You stop seeing “random anxiety” and start seeing **a predictable system.** **2\. INTERRUPT THE LOOP** ​Guiding your system toward: 👉reduced physiological arousal and emotional escalation patterns 👉stabilization of attention and perception 👉interruption of catastrophic prediction cycles 👉work withfear amplification cycles and overthinking spirals ​ ​The goal is not to “remove anxiety” bu**t to reduce intensity and restore internal control.** ​**3\. REBUILD RESPONSE STRUCTURE** **​​** **​**You leave with: 👉your personal “when this happens → do this”map 👉 ​early warning signal awareness-recognition of early activation signals 👉tools to stop escalation before it peaks:grounding + regulation steps 👉clarity on how your system responds under stress,clarity on how to interrupt future spirals ​ ​You leave with **a practical regulation guidance** **THIS IS NOT FOR YOU IF…** **you are in acute crisis or need medical/psychiatric care** **you prefer unstructured emotional conversation** **you are looking for long-term psychotherapy** **you want passive relaxation or wellness experiences** **​** **​THIS IS FOR YOU IF…** **your nervous system feels overstimulated or reactive** **you want practical tools to reduce spiraling** **you want to understand your anxiety pattern clearly** **you want immediate structure and stabilization** Led by Ayna Utegalieva- **Psychologist \| Author\|Founder of NOVA Sapiens™** Ayna Utegalieva is a psychologist working at the intersection of **anxiety, nervous system regulation, and identity transition**.Her work is based on a simple observation: many people are not lacking insight — they are overwhelmed by internal patterns they don’t fully understand. Through her framework, **NOVA Sapiens™**, she helps individuals make sense of anxiety loops, emotional overload, and recurring behavioral patterns, and begin to restructure how they respond to them.Ayna’s sessions are designed for those navigating **uncertainty, pressure, or transition**, offering a structured process that brings clarity, reduces internal noise, and restores a sense of direction and self-trust.Her approach combines psychological depth with practical structure — creating space not just for understanding, but for **real internal change**. At the core of this work is the concept of **NOVA Sapiens™** — a perspective that explores how human internal experience is evolving in today's world under conditions of **constant change, uncertainty, and information overload. More here http://www.worldwomen.co.uk/bali-for-transformation.html** **WHY INVEST/WHY THIS WORKS** Most anxiety approaches fail because they: ⚡they don’t apply neuroscience ​⚡focus on thoughts instead of a systematised approach ⚡give generic tools not personalized patterns ⚡don’t work in real-time activation states This session is different because it: **works with your nervous system as it is — not as it “should be”** **FINAL WORD** **You do not need more information.** You need **a structured way to understand and regulate what is already happening inside you.** This session is designed to give you that — in real time. I keep these sessions intentionally small to create a more personal, tailored experience for everyone involved. Because of that, there are only a limited number of spaces available, and once they’re filled, I won’t be adding more. If you’re feeling called to join, I’d recommend securing your spot soon. **READY TO BEGIN?** Book your spot now https://pay.gocardless.com/BRT000502EX9T3T More about us http://www.worldwomen.co.uk/bali-for-transformation.html

**About** THE CASTLE CLIMBING CENTER has about 135 roped/auto-belays numbered routes with each route having up to 6 grades giving it approx 700 routes in total. THE CASTLE CLIMBING CENTER offers bouldering, top-roping, leading and auto-belays at their center. Some of us prefer bouldering while others will be in the top roping, leading or auto-belaying - this is up to you! We climb for a couple of hours and then the group regroups at 12.00 noon sometimes without me other times with me in The Brownswood pub, 271 Green Lanes, Finsbury Park, London N4 2EX for a spot of lunch and a libation. (https://goo.gl/maps/S4FZ9j1AYMPDs7uQ6) a stone's throw from the castle. **Meetups** We get together every Thursday & Sunday at THE CASTLE CLIMBING CENTER meeting at 9:00am in the warming up area or else look out for someone wearing a black RAMS t-shirt around the center. If you're joining for the first time let us know via message and we will keep an eye out for you at the start :) **New Climbers!** Unfortunately, if you haven't climbed before it isn't as easy as just turning up and climbing up the wall. To climb safely you need to understand the hazards and be able to use the equipment correctly. You must have basic climbing skills and know how to put on a harness, attach a rope to a harness using a rethreaded figure of eight(figure of eight on the bight) and know how to use a belay device to pay out the rope and secure a falling climber etc. So before your first climb, you may be required by the climbing center to fill out health and safety forms. This may involve a quick test on climbing rules at the counter on arrival. Please add an extra 10/15 minutes before your session if you need to register for the first time. THE CASTLE CLIMBING CENTER terms and conditions will apply. Please also note signing up for the Meetup session won’t necessarily grant you access to the center. **Other communication** Within these groups, you are possibly likely to develop long-lasting friendships. Don't forget we have a Discord page and WhatsApp https://chat.whatsapp.com/JNJ81oLSKB2JGaNm79em0C. The group will always be very varied when it comes to climbing levels, abilities and modality preferences. Do shout out if you have any questions. If you want to have a chat about this or other meetups, or just to keep in touch, ask to join us on Discord and/or WhatsApp. We have a dedicated THE CASTLE CLIMBING CENTER chat, but also talk about all things climbing (and some non-climbing!) including trips, gear talks and looking for climbing partner/s situations. **You’ll Rock it** A word of warning this sport is very, very addictive once bitten your its mistress for life. The simple challenge of you against the rock is sublime, there are competitions but then really the only real competition is 'you and the rock'. As climbing can be a very social activity we look forward to sharing our passion with yours. *Happy climbing!* p.s. Eventually, we will be starting and incorporating our climbing academy where we aim to bring skills, ropework and technique etc to enhance your climbing ability, using 25mm chalk bag colored belts to indicate your level. Naturally, THE CASTLE CLIMBING CENTER will also run courses to help improve your techniques too. Contact THE CASTLE CLIMBING CENTER for more info.

**Bookable via our website ➡️** [https://www.thegoodlifecentre.co.uk/events/kumiko-coasters-54/](https://www.thegoodlifecentre.co.uk/events/kumiko-coasters-54/) **⋆⋆⋆** Kumiko Coasters Woodwork knowledge is endless. Here is an opportunity to experience the delicate side of Japanese woodwork in this one-day workshop. Kumiko is a delicate and sophisticated technique of assembling wooden pieces without the use of nails. Thinly slit wooden pieces are grooved, punched, and mortised, and then fitted individually using a plane, saw, chisel, and other tools to make fine adjustments. The technique was developed in Japan in the Asuka Era (600-700 AD), and has since been refined and passed down through generations of craftsmen who are passionate about the tradition of Kumiko. Traditionally, the technique has been used for room dividers and sliding doors but now designers are using the patterns to explore decoration in lights, lampshades, and other furniture. During the day you will have a chance to make two exquisite Kumiko tiles using lime wood or walnut. For extra rigidity, we have glued the tiles as they were made. It’s your choice! This workshop will be guided by Auram Desforges who teaches our longer Kumiko Lamp course. All materials and use of tools included. Suitable for absolute beginners.

This is a 6.5 mile walk along the Green Chain walk and the Thames. We will visit Lesnes Abbey (cafe, toilets, ruins) and end at Crossness Pumping Station (cafe, toilets, building visit). We will then visit Crossness on their Open Day for approx. 2 hours. We will have a drink stop during the walk & have lunch at Crossness - basic cafe for drinks and cake, not lunch, BYO. The final additional 2 miles back to Abbey Wood station can be walked or take the Routemaster bus from Crossness. If you don’t want to visit Crossness, you will have to make your own way (unguided) back to Abbey Wood station. It is highly recommend pre-booking tickets or buying membership in advance. This will jump the queue and guarantee entry. Entry for the afternoon of the open day is £20\.37 \(without Gift Aid\) payable on the day \(if available\) or bookable in advance through this link https://crossness\.visihost\.co\.uk/\#eventcalendar_1\|778 If it says Tickets Unavailable, and you don't want to buy a 1 year membership, please email me at heather.staffurth@gmail.com and I will send your name to Crossness and they will hold a ticket on the door for you to pay on arrival. However, you could instead become a member. Benefits of membership are on the link below. £20pa age up to 64, £15pa age 65+. Includes free tea and biscuit. https://crossness.org.uk/membership-crossness-engines-trust/ After our visit we will meet at approx 4pm when they close and return to Abbey Wood station together on the Routemaster bus or walking. You can make you own way home independently at any time. Please note that **there is a £2 payment required for non-Ramblers members** to help cover our Meetup costs. **Please help the walk leader by bringing the exact change.** Members of the Ramblers Association are welcome on any of our walks, but we would still encourage you to RSVP on Meetup. This will give our volunteer walk leaders an idea of how many are attending, and also to keep the numbers manageable. If, on the day of the walk, you are still on the waiting list and a Ramblers member, you can attend just let the walk leader know you are coming by adding a comment 'Coming as a Rambler'. You will find the start location via our website Our Walks ([westkentwalkinggroup.org.uk](http://westkentwalkinggroup.org.uk/)).

During this one-day weekend workshop, our experienced tutor will walk you through some ‘dry’ exercises to top up your skills in the ‘wet arts’ of your home. Plumbing = Water in and water out. There will be plenty of time to learn how to isolate the water supply, fix a leaky tap, rescue something from a U bend and unclog a blocked sink. All the basic essentials that you need to be able to do yourself without the expense of calling someone in. Learn the principles of replacing a tap, if the replacement washer didn’t do the trick, or if you are just a fashionista that wants the latest design. Get the know-how of how to fit a washing machine and a dishwasher to the ‘loo’, where you will learn how to replace any non-working part in your cistern. Warm up your knowledge of your heating system – how it works and how and when to bleed a radiator or adjust the pressure on your boiler. You will also practice how to remove and replace silicone sealant around the bath and shower. So you can go home and give your bathroom a mini-makeover, without spending a fortune. All of our courses take place in a safe environment. There is no use of blow torch or welding equipment and no running water systems. Every exercise is done on dry disconnected examples but with enough detail to add confidence to any learner. This course is created to add to any homeowner’s proficiency and sense of self-sufficiency. It will also benefit housing landlords who want to take on minor repairs in their properties. Leave with the confidence to tackle some basic plumbing jobs around the house and gain some independence. All personal protection, tools and materials are included. Beginners welcome.

**You are invited to join a deep healing group process that extends beyond us as individuals into the wider 'field' of historical/ancestral influences, where our family's past traumas are seen, acknowledged, and attended to, so that they do not limit our well-being today.** In these **short videos, our facilitator Illi Adato** explains the key aspects of the Systemic and Family Constellation approach to therapy and healing: [https://www.facebook.com/LondonFamilyConstellations/videos](https://www.facebook.com/LondonFamilyConstellations/videos) We shall meet at The Kailash Centre in St. Johns Wood, London NW8 for this month's group session, **open to all**. Issue Holder and Representative spaces are available: **For Representative (Participant) Booking £45:** **[https://calendly.com/illiadato/in-person-constellations-representative](https://calendly.com/illiadato/in-person-constellations-representative)**[ ](https://calendly.com/illiadato/in-person-constellations-representative) **For Issue Holder (Client) Booking £175:** If you wish to attend as an Issue Holder at this workshop and have your own Constellation done please email your request to: [ih@londonconstellations.uk](ih@londonconstellations.uk) **Please Note:** There are limited issue holder spaces available, please book early to avoid disappointment and wait for a confirmation email of your booking. This workshop provides a perfect opportunity to experience the deep and insightful Systemic Constellations process. A unique and powerful therapeutic method for self-exploration, understanding core behaviors, removing blocks, and reintroducing movement and growth. It is used as a major resource in working through trauma and it can assist in depression treatment. To read comments from participants in previous workshops click this link [https://bit.ly/33Asprs](https://bit.ly/33Asprs) **WHAT ARE SYSTEMIC CONSTELLATIONS?** The Systemic Constellations method is a unique therapeutic process of exploration of the forces that move us in life. Such forces often appear as difficulties or a sense of being 'stuck' in life, affecting our behavior, relationships, career, health/wellbeing, or even financial circumstances. This method provides a three-dimensional ‘map’ of one’s life as it is at present. It is a simple yet powerful way to explore entanglements and blockages in our personal life and in our family history. The method brings awareness and clarity into personal challenges by focusing the client on the root cause of such difficulties. Constellations provide an opening for a positive life shift and present ways for deep healing processes to occur. **WHAT HAPPENS IN A CONSTELLATION SESSION?** In Constellations work the ‘client’ is referred to as the ‘Issue Holder’. The method uses workshop participants as ‘Representatives’ to stand in for key people in the client’s life such as family members, colleagues, partners, ex-partners etc., sometimes ‘abstract’ concepts such as an emotion, country of origin, religion, or destiny are also represented. All participants are invited to take part as Representatives. Workshop participants often report (see reviews: [https://bit.ly/33Asprs](https://bit.ly/33Asprs)) experiencing profound insights into their own lives by simply witnessing the process, regardless of how they choose to take part. **WHY DOES THIS WORK?** Scientific research shows that the experiences of your ancestors can determine your behavior today and affect future generations.\*\* Recent scientific research into DNA reveals that a component named epigenetics is embedding the effect of a traumatic experience by altering the genetic structure. It means that some of our behavior patterns can be attributed to traumatic events in your family history. This notion has always been one of the guiding principles of Systemic / Constellations Therapy, a form of work that is dedicated to exposing and dealing with issues emerging from our family system. Our group provides a **safe space** where deep personal work is done and where maintaining confidentiality and respect for each other's privacy is paramount. **\*\* DNA research paper and news article links:** Discover - Grandma's Experiences Leave a Mark on Your Genes [https://bit.ly/3dLwEkK](https://bit.ly/3dLwEkK) BBC News - "Memories" pass between generations [http://bbc.in/1dNShPe](http://bbc.in/1dNShPe) **Facilitated by Illi Adato** MA Lon\.

AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s? This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation? We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.

Join us at Unity of Columbus for our Weekly Reiki Share, a peaceful and uplifting gathering for connection, healing, and growth. A Reiki Share is a time where Reiki practitioners and students come together to give and receive healing energy in a supportive and welcoming environment. These sessions will be moderated by Columbus Unity Reiki. Reiki is a hands-on energy healing method from Japan that first came to the United States in 1938. Since then, it has grown in popularity and is now widely practiced throughout the West. All levels are welcome, and you do not need to be a practitioner at Unity of Columbus to attend. If you are a Reiki practitioner, a Reiki student, or simply interested in becoming a Reiki student, we warmly invite you to join us. Come practice your healing techniques, learn new approaches, receive healing energy, and connect with a like-minded community in a space of relaxation, renewal, and positive energy.
