Charla sobre Constelaciones Familiares (Evento Online - Gratuito)
Charla sobre Constelaciones Familiares (Evento Online - Gratuito)
Favor confirmar através del WhatsApp +351914149287 Tema: Las Constelaciones Familiares son una técnica de la medicina holística creada por Bert Hellinger y que nos permite mirar desde otra perspectiva nuestra vida presente. En ellas se da un nuevo espacio a acontecimientos pasados, comprendiendo todo lo vivido y de ese modo se ubican las emociones en otro lugar más sano, en el lugar correcto, liberándonos de cualquier lastre del pasado que pudiéramos tener. La terapia con Constelaciones Familiares revela que muchos de nuestros sentimientos, comportamientos y síntomas no están en realidad vinculados a nuestra propia historia personal, sino que tienen su origen en una lealtad familiar inconsciente que pretende que cada generación reanude los conflictos no regulados de las generaciones anteriores. Las Constelaciones Familiares permiten poner luz sobre estos conflictos y repararlos para liberar a los que los llevan y a sus futuras generaciones. Gratuito/Colaboración voluntária Constelar un tema: 45,00 Euros Facilita: Denise Barbosa Evento presencial en grupo Online (Eventos presenciales 10 y 24 de Enero) Reservas e inscripciones: -Teléfono: +351914149287 -E.mail: barbosa.denise@gmail.com

🪷 Tea & Deep Talks 🪷 “Lo que más me cuesta aceptar de mí”
🪷 Tea & Deep Talks 🪷 “Lo que más me cuesta aceptar de mí”
**Tea & Deep Talks** nace como un espacio íntimo y consciente creado para mujeres que, como tú, están en un momento de transición, replanteamiento y despertar. Un espacio para bajar las defensas, respirar, escucharnos y expresar eso que a veces cuesta poner en palabras… pero que necesita ser compartido. Este encuentro forma parte de una serie de eventos dentro de la comunidad **DESPIERTA · Círculo de Mujeres Conscientes**, un lugar donde honramos los procesos personales, los cambios internos y los ciclos que nos transforman. Y aunque este espacio nació como circulo de mujeres, tuvimos un hombre en nuestro primer encuentro y estamos agradecidas de que se diera así. Nos recordó que la consciencia no entiende de sexo ni de etiquetas. Así que si resuenas con esta energía, sea cual sea tu identidad, este espacio también puede ser tuyo. ⸻ En esta sesión exploraremos: **“Lo que más me cuesta aceptar de mí”** Ese lugar donde aparecen las partes que intentas esconder, las que juzgas, las que aún no sabes cómo amar. Ese territorio donde la incomodidad habla, donde la autoexigencia aprieta y donde el amor propio todavía está aprendiendo a sostenerse. Profundizaremos en: _• Las versiones de ti que aún no puedes perdonar. • La resistencia a mirar tu sombra y el mensaje que esconde. • La culpa, la vergüenza y el juicio que proyectas hacia dentro. • Un amor propio distinto: el que nunca nos enseñaron, el que empieza en lo que más duele aceptar._ Todo esto lo exploraremos a través de **preguntas poderosas**, **ejercicios de escritura consciente**, **meditación guiada y dinámicas sorpresa** diseñadas para que puedas observarte con honestidad, cuestionarte con valentía y abrir un espacio real de reconciliación contigo misma. ⸻ **Tea & Deep Talks** es una invitación a escucharte, compartir desde la verdad y recordar que no estás sola en tu proceso. Trae tu presencia y tus ganas de abrir el corazón. El resto lo crearemos juntas. ✨ La consumición se gestiona de forma individual y la aportación es libre, desde lo que tu corazón sienta ofrecer. 🌹✨ Este es un encuentro íntimo con aforo reducido. CÓMO APUNTARSE
1. ✅ Pulsa asistiré en esta actividad.
2. ✅ Contacta al organizador por WhatsApp al 34622340905.
3. ✅ Recibe confirmación. ⚠️ **Es imprescindible cancelar la inscripción con al menos 24 h de antelación en caso de no poder asistir**, para poder liberar plazas y dar la oportunidad a las personas en lista de espera de unirse. ⸻ Si te gustaría recibir un recordatorio de este evento, por favor únete a la lista de difusión del canal. Ahí recibirás un aviso el día previo y el mismo día del encuentro. ‎Sigue el canal de 𝙳𝙴𝚂𝙿𝙸𝙴𝚁𝚃𝙰 en WhatsApp: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VbBzqqN3rZZa4CK5al1R ¿Quién soy? **Soy Alessia Lisán**, creadora de **DESPIERTA · Círculo de mujeres conscientes.** Sostengo espacios para mujeres que están en transición, atravesando cambios internos o abriéndose a una nueva versión de sí mismas. Con una trayectoria profesional en Recursos Humanos, Coaching y un profundo camino personal de crecimiento, hoy facilito encuentros que integran **autoconciencia, expansión personal y despertar espiritual.** Lo hago desde la presencia, la escucha auténtica y la apertura a las historias únicas y hermosas que cada mujer trae consigo. Mi intención es crear espacios donde puedas reconocerte, expandirte y volver a ti. ✨
Taller de Striptease Consciente para mujeres
Taller de Striptease Consciente para mujeres
[RESERVA TU PLAZA AQUÍ](https://www.arsfemina.com/product-page/formaci%C3%B3n-intensiva-en-striptease-consciente-dsc) **Fechas:** 2, 3 y 4 de Enero 2026 (viernes, sábado y domingo) **Horario:** 17:30 a 20:30 El striptease consciente, en el marco de la Danza Sensual Consciente®, es una práctica psico-corporal orientada a explorar la relación entre autoimagen, deseo, vulnerabilidad y poder. A través del movimiento, la conciencia somática y la práctica escénica, se aborda la sensualidad como un recurso pedagógico y terapéutico para la autopercepción y la expresión. Este taller está dirigido a mujeres que sienten curiosidad por el striptease y también pueden experimentar inseguridad, vergüenza o bloqueo. Es un espacio para entrenar la presencia, la sensualidad y el vínculo con el impulso erótico desde el cuerpo tal como es hoy. Se trabaja el movimiento, la relación con la autoimagen y la presencia con una intención definida, utilizando la metodología Danza Sensual Consciente® (DSC®). Este enfoque integra recursos somáticos, exploración motriz y composición coreográfica aplicada, fundamentándose en la experiencia corporal individual y respetando la individualidad de cada mujer. Desde un enfoque neuro-somático, la sensualidad se considera una capacidad adaptable, moldeada por experiencias, aprendizajes y memoria corporal. El taller facilita la generación de nuevas asociaciones corporales, la activación consciente del impulso erótico y la consolidación de una expresión genuina y coherente en movimiento. * info https://www.arsfemina.com/product-page/formaci%C3%B3n-intensiva-en-striptease-consciente-dsc

The Next Chapter: Looking Back, Leaning Forward, A WIA Vision Circle
Coming in January 2026: a warm, reflective gathering to close one chapter and open another. More details coming soon. Together, we look back at the moments, shifts, and practices that shaped the past year—what worked, what surprised us, and what we’re ready to release. Then we lean forward into who we want to become: the intentions, experiments, and stories we want next January’s version of ourselves to be telling. A gentle, inspiring circle that invites clarity, connection, and shared wisdom.Check us out on Meetup to learn more and rsvp #womeninagilecolumbus #womeninagile
The Matzah Ball by Jean Meltzer
The Matzah Ball by Jean Meltzer
I don't usually pick romance but I really wanted to do a Hanukkah book. It's a bit on the longer side but hopefully a quick read. The library only has 5 audiobooks so please try to remember to "release it" when you're done. Columbus libraries: [https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C3503238](https://cml.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S105C3503238) Location: The Goat Riversouth [219 South High Street, Columbus, Ohio 43215](https://www.google.com/maps?q=219%20South%20High%20Street%2C%20Columbus%2C%20Ohio%2043215%2C%20United%20States) [Menu](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/686d3ed16745133042482c5f/t/68ff654dbb03b96875430bde/1761568077220/all_brunch-20250311.pdf) Book summary: Rachel Rubenstein-Goldblatt is a nice Jewish girl with a shameful secret: she loves Christmas. For a decade she’s hidden her career as a Christmas romance novelist from her family. Her talent has made her a bestseller even as her chronic illness has always kept the kind of love she writes about out of reach. But when her diversity-conscious publisher insists she write a Hanukkah romance, her well of inspiration suddenly runs dry. Hanukkah’s not magical. It’s not merry. It’s not *Christmas*. Desperate not to lose her contract, Rachel’s determined to find her muse at the Matzah Ball, a Jewish music celebration on the last night of Hanukkah, even if it means working with her summer camp archenemy—Jacob Greenberg. Though Rachel and Jacob haven’t seen each other since they were kids, their grudge still glows brighter than a menorah. But as they spend more time together, Rachel finds herself drawn to Hanukkah—and Jacob—in a way she never expected. Maybe this holiday of lights will be the spark she needed to set her heart ablaze.
