Wake Skating

=== THE TOUR === On Saturday I'll drive to Liepnitzsee for a swim and a short picknick on the lake. I have a car and I wouldn't mind some company. We will depart at 09:00 (sharp) and drive to a parking space near the lake. From there it is a 10 minute walk. I have to be back in town by 15:00. Note that the place is remote. There are no facilities. You have to bring everything you need. === WHAT TO BRING === • Swimming wear, towls, etc. • Water, drinks and food • Good mood • 5 Euros for fuel and parking fees === NO-SHOW POLICY === I enforce a zero-tolerance policy on no-shows and last-minute cancellations. If you RSVP and don't show up, you will be removed from the group. If your plans change, please cancel early enough to make your seat available for someone else.

Join us for a fun day at the park! We'll be playing frisbee, roundnet/spikeball, and enjoying a picnic. Whether you're a pro or just looking to have a good time, all skill levels are welcome. Don't miss out on the chance to meet new people and enjoy some friendly sports in the great outdoors. See you there! We'll meet around this area here -- look for a green picnic blanket: https://maps.app.goo.gl/hTYqi3L1haoZ3aG97 Don't be discouraged by the lack of people joining officially here, some friends are coming either ways but don't join through the platform. See you there!

Hey beautiful women ✨ We are gathering for an evening dedicated entirely to sleep. Not the theory of it. The practical reality of what it takes to actually sleep well, consistently, and wake up feeling restored. This workshop is for women who are tired of waking up exhausted, who take forever to fall asleep, or who sleep through the night but still feel like they got nothing. We will look at what your body actually needs to move into deep, restorative sleep, which habits and environmental factors are working against you without you realizing it, and what a bedroom and an evening routine that supports sleep genuinely look like. You will also learn a set of self-soothing practices to calm your body and mind before bed, so you can stop lying there waiting and actually rest. You will leave with a clear, personal picture of what to change and how, plus practices you can start using the same night. No prior knowledge needed. Come as you are. Wear comfortable clothing and bring a journal if you like to reflect and take notes. :) **Les Amis** is a women-only community of friendly souls. We provide access to hundreds of experiences that explore your passions and connect you with other event participants. **Check our website to learn more, and apply to join our community and events**: [lesamis.cc/apply](https://www.lesamis.cc/apply)

It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself. Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went? Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence? Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.
