**SERENDIP Wellbeing Apéro – April 10th at 6.30pm** A New Ritual to celebrate & end the week! We're giving you something wonderful to look forward to at the end of the week! After you finish work on Friday, 10th April - and before you head out to dinner with your friends/family, come on by to our Wellbeing Studio at 6.30pm. * ***Warm Tea & Relaxing***: Get yourself comfy and relaxed. Slip off your shoes and grab a meditation cushion.

The Serendip team will share simple, science‑based micro‑moments that help you reconnect and recharge throughout your day. Wander between candlelight shopping, tea or wine tastings, and mini wellbeing rituals designed to spark calm and creativity. This Friday, Serendip invites you to slow down and rediscover the beauty of small moments. Our *Wellbeing Apéro: Moments of Serendipity* celebrates the power of micro‑habits — those tiny, intentional pauses that transform how we work, lead, and live. Throughout the evening, the Serendip team will share practical, sensory ideas for wellbeing: * Self‑massage techniques for tension points * Simple stretches you can do in your office chair * The science behind micro‑moments and why they matter * Rituals for walking, breathing, and reconnecting Enjoy candlelit nocturne shopping in the spa, sip tea or a glass of wine, and move freely between conversations and experiences. Each moment is designed to help you feel grounded, inspired, and gently renewed — a living expression of *Serendip Seasons* and *Serendip Sparks*. Be part of this conversation and let’s chat about how intentional pauses plays a part of your every day. Free to attend - but you need to register your place! Inspiration, tea and a glass of wine are offered to you ❤️.

Join us for our very first co-parenting speed dating evening - designed for people who are ready to have a child and want to meet a like-minded co-parent, without the expectation of a romantic relationship. You will have a series of short, one on one conversations with other participants, giving you the chance to quickly explore compatibility. Whether you are just starting to explore co-parenting or already committed to this path, this event is an opportunity to meet others who share your intention - and take a real first step!

We do cycles of 4-6 weeks, with a progressive intensity, and the last session is lighter. Program: 15’ warm up **To be defined** Cool down to get back to the starting point… or more S=All out sprint RF = Run fast, at MAS (Maximum aerobic speed) CF = Run comfortably fast (1h threshold) J = Jog, recuperation Notes: It should take about one hour in total, as the cool down will end when we reach back to the meeting point. It's NOT required to have an activity tracker or smart watch to be able to follow the program, as I'll be giving signals with a whistle. For the "run" part, you can follow your own pace and we'll be regrouping in the "jog" part. Intervals training is not advised for total beginners. To have an idea, the average pace at the warm up is around 5'45"/km-6'/km so this pace should feel very comfortable ***Acknowledgement of member responsibility and release of liability.*** By signing up for this event, you agree to release the organizers from any responsibility and liability in all claims. As the participation is strictly voluntary and you freely choose to join, it is the responsibility of individuals participating to ensure that they are fit enough and have adequate coverage to protect themselves.

Hello everyone, I’m a photographer and documentary filmmaker, and after many years working in this field, I’ve recently felt the need to create smaller, more personal workshops where people can really learn by doing and take time to explore their creativity. **On April 11th and 12th,** I’m organizing a 2-day mobile phone photography workshop in **Brussels, Chatelain area** from **10:30 to 15:00** each day. We’ll spend the time learning how to use our phones more intentionally — working with light, composition, framing, and understanding how to get the most out of the camera settings and retouching apps as **snapseed and lightroom.** The approach is very practical, with a mix of indoor and outdoor exercises, so you can immediately apply what you learn. Price is **180 eur** per participant for **2 days workshop** with food included, if you bring a friend or you are a student there is a **15% discount.** The group will be small **(max 6-8 people)**, which makes it easier to exchange, ask questions, and get individual feedback. It’s also meant to be a relaxed and creative experience — we’ll take breaks, have some good food, and enjoy the process of seeing things differently through the camera. If you’re curious about photography, want to improve your images, or just feel like doing something creative for a couple of days, you’re very welcome to join.

This is an open Circle for anyone and open to constellate on any subject. It's a good way to get started if you've been wanting to see what Constellations is all about. We will start with some bodywork exercises and then there will be time for three Constellations on any topic. ​A Constellation is a means for accessing the timeless map you hold within, linking the past to the present and the present to the future. It's a tool to find the origin of the problems we face today such as repeated patterns, blockages, relationship difficulties or health concerns, to name a few, and has the power to reveal hidden dynamics not visible to the normal eye. Then a healing exchange takes place and steps are taken to free you from the past and put you on a road to freedom, understanding and authenticity for your future. ​There are two ways to participate, either as a participant or Space Holder in the Circle or to bring a topic to constellate as an Issue Holder, which is limited to three places. Although one person will bring a subject to constellate, everyone participates. A Constellation is a Healing Circle for all who attend. ​ Price for Space Holders: 50 Euros (12 spots) Price for Issue Holders: 165 Euros (3 spots) ​Date: Sunday, April 12th ​Time: 3:00 to 7:00 pm Location: Shanti Home: Rue Darwin 8, Brussels 1190 (Forest) ​\*There are three spots available for Constellations. You must have attended a Circle as a Space Holder before constellating an issue. \*Spots are limited for both roles to ensure enough space in the room, although the room is very spacious. *Modified price for students or if you are unemployed. Write me if this is your case.​* Payment must be made beforehand. You can register either to the following account or pay by credit card or PayPal by following the link to the website. Register here: https://www.gettotheorigin.com/brussels-events For bank transfer instead, email Meghan. ​Contact: Meghan +32 468 455 273 meghan@gettotheorigin.com www.gettotheorigin.com

This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team. **YouTube Link** TBD
