!!!THE EVENT IS NOT BOOKABLE VIA Meetup Book Club - Valentine’s Edition 💕 Our Book Club is a cozy monthly meet-up where we read, share, and talk about books together in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Usually, we choose one specific book per month, read it individually, and then meet to discuss it over coffee, tea, and good conversations. 💌 For this Valentine’s Edition, we’re switching things up a little: Instead of one fixed book, you’re welcome to read any book within the romance genre - contemporary romance, romantasy, dark romance, YA, or a classic love story. How it works: • Pick and read a romance book of your choice • On the meeting day, come dressed in pink or red • Bring a small snack or drink to share • We’ll talk about what we read, exchange thoughts, and leave with lots of new book recommendations (and a little extra love 🥰) Need inspiration? Here are a few ideas: • Pride and Prejudice - Jane Austen • Before I Let Go - Kennedy Ryan • The Seven Year Slip - Ashley Poston This special format is all about warmth, connection, and celebrating love - in books and beyond 💕 *** Hey girl, Just fyi Playhard is a members-only social club for girls 25-35ish in Zurich. We host 10-20 intimate events each month, from brunches and girls nights to deep talks and games… Don’t be confused by the event page signups — our social club has over 100 members and 8-15 girls come to each of our events. Being a member of Playhard is mandatory for attendance.

Welcome cold lovers! We have been practising cold water plunges for over 4 years. We believe in the benefits of cold water exposure. The feeling you get after the swim is magnificent, it makes you feel alive. We have started this group to safely experience the cold water together. We motivate each other, do active warmup exercises, and also share our life stories with a warm coffee/tea afterwards. The event is every Sunday at 11:30, we meet at the Mythenquai Badi entrance no matter the weather. Take along: a large towel, comfortable bathing suit, flip-flops, and warm clothes (hat, gloves, etc). If you’re planning swimming out take along a bright swim buoy. The event is Free. IMPORTANT: Every participant takes responsibility for themselves when attending this event. Before attempting cold water exposure, individuals with health conditions (e.g., heart problems or hypertension) should seek advice from a healthcare professional. Safely acclimating the body to cold temperatures requires preparation and gradual exposure.

A space to return to what is essential We invite you to take part in a ritual gathering for men, created for those who feel the call to pause, breathe, and reconnect with their inner strength in a safe and authentic space. We gather in the forest, around the grandfather fire, to share ceremonial cacao and form a circle of presence, listening, and brotherhood. This is not a workshop, nor a talk, nor a “self-improvement” experience. It is a living space of encounter, where each man is welcome exactly as he is. There are no hierarchies here, no masks to wear. Only men walking their own path, supported by the strength of the circle. **Who is this gathering for?** * This circle is open to men who: * Seek a more honest connection with themselves. * Feel the desire to inhabit their masculinity with greater awareness and maturity. * Value silence, authentic speech, and presence. * Wish to experience brotherhood beyond competition or judgment. * Are willing to listen and to be listened to. * No previous experience with circles, rituals, or spiritual practices is required. Only a willingness to be present. **What we will experience together** During this gathering of approximately two hours, we will move through simple yet profound practices, guided with care and clarity: * Ceremonial Cacao Circle, Cacao as a heart medicine, supporting openness, listening, and authentic expression. * Sacred Fire, The grandfather fire as the center of the gathering, witness to our intentions and processes. * Meditation and Presence, Moments of silence and inner connection, held by the group. * Talking Circle, A safe space to share from truth, without advice or judgment. * Connection with Nature: The forest as a living temple that reminds us of what truly matters. * Expression and Rhythm: An optional moment of music, song, or percussion to integrate the experience. Each gathering honors the energy of conscious masculinity, integrating strength and sensitivity, direction and openness. **Practical information** Duration: Approximately 2 hours Location: Forests of Zurich (The exact location is shared after registration) Energy exchange: Single ticket: 30 CHF Brothers ticket (2 people): 50 CHF Places are limited to preserve the quality and intimacy of the circle. **What to bring** * A cup for ceremonial cacao * A water bottle * Wood for the fire * An offering for the altar (fruit, seeds, a photo, or something that represents love and gratitude) * Notebook and pen * Musical instrument (optional) * Comfortable, warm clothing for outdoor conditions * Something light to eat after the gathering * We recommend fasting for at least 2 hours beforehand, as we will be working with ceremonial cacao. * A held and conscious space * This gathering is held with respect, confidentiality, and presence. Everything shared in the circle remains within the circle. The use of alcohol or other substances before or during the gathering is not permitted. **Reserve your place** 👉 [https://www.mama-cacao.ch](https://www.mama-cacao.ch) **Upon registration you will receive:** Please join our group, to kwon the location and ask any question you have Men’s WhatsApp Group [https://chat.whatsapp.com/IslQaOq9plTGv6fFNRTRE9](https://chat.whatsapp.com/IslQaOq9plTGv6fFNRTRE9) Mama Cacao Community WhatsApp Group [https://chat.whatsapp.com/CbTg7sUdnB35gLX6jILEGS](https://chat.whatsapp.com/CbTg7sUdnB35gLX6jILEGS) Telegram Channel [https://t.me/+5Bu537lvzWplZjNk](https://t.me/+5Bu537lvzWplZjNk) Newsletter [https://www.mama-cacao.ch/contact-7](https://www.mama-cacao.ch/contact-7) This space is supported by **Dharma Collective**, with hearts aligned in support of the **Chakana Project**.

This is not just a money class. This is a restoration space. The I AM Worthy of Ownership™ Path is a 12-step, sister-centered journey for women who are ready to build financial stability without shame, fear, or pressure—and to do it in a way that honors both wisdom and the spirit. Many women don’t struggle with money because they lack discipline or intelligence. They struggle because of unhealed experiences, survival patterns, and the quiet belief that they are “behind” or “disqualified.” This series gently challenges those beliefs while offering practical tools for peace, clarity, and long-term planning. Together, we will talk honestly about: Releasing shame and money anxiety Building stability as a form of self-respect and spiritual discipline Understanding money as a tool, not a source of worth Managing debt with clarity instead of condemnation Preparing for life’s unexpected moments without fear Laying a calm foundation for future ownership and legacy Each session blends practical financial education with reflection, conversation, and encouragement. There is no pressure to share personal numbers or experiences. You are welcome to speak, journal quietly, or simply listen. This is not about hustle. This is not about perfection. This is about alignment, wisdom, and peace. Who this series is for: Women who are starting over or rebuilding Women who want stability without stress Women preparing for future ownership or housing decisions Women who want their financial lives to reflect wholeness, not fear No prior financial knowledge is required. Come as you are. Bring a notebook. Leave a little lighter than you arrived. Light refreshments will be served along with 30 minutes of networking.
