Dear all, We will do the next stargazing trip to Melk. **Meeting point:** 18:45 at Westbahnhof in front of Anker. Please show up on time. We will use this time to get to know each other and make sure everyone is comfortable with the group. **Departure:** CJX5 from Westbahnhof, departing at 19:18. **Return:** CJX5 from Melk Bahnhof, departing at 23:40. **Tickets:** \~45 Euros round-trip (without Vorteilscard). **What to expect:** We will arrive in Melk \~20:20, walk for \~1 hour away from the urban area, cross the Danube, and find a good spot. Depending on conditions and preferences, plans may get updated on the spot. If the weather is on our side, we may see the Milky Way and a moonrise. RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. Please **pack more layers** than you think would be necessary. 2. A **red-light headlight** is highly recommended for navigation in the dark to protect our night vision. 3. **Insect repellent spray**. 4. A **blanket** to make yourself comfortable. SAFETY AND LOGISTICS: I will take a **group picture** before boarding the train, and do **location sharing** for the entire time that we are outdoors. A link to the WhatsApp group will be shared with the attending members only on the day of the trip. Please note that I am not a tour guide and **you are responsible for your own safety and well-being** during the trip. Since stargazing is highly weather-dependent, **the trip may be canceled up to 4 hours before departure**, so please check then for final confirmation. If you are interested in an Einfach-Raus ticket, please let me know, and then we can coordinate a group purchase. Otherwise, you are responsible for getting your own tickets. Updates will be posted under the comments. Please keep your RSVP’s up to date. I’m looking forward to a starry trip!

This is a free, in person meeting. Burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is sponsored by the Dianetics & Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.
