Utoquai Morning Swim & coffee
Join the Züri Open Water Swim Pod (ZOWSP) for a refreshing morning swim in Lake Zurich at sunrise followed by a cozy coffee meet-up at Etre. Whether you are a seasoned swimmer or just dipping your toes into open water swimming, this event is perfect for fitness enthusiasts, triathletes, and water sports lovers alike. Make new friends, network, and enjoy the beauty of the outdoors while engaging in a social and energizing activity.
Just to remind you all, here's how things work:
🕖 Meet Time: 7:02am
📍 Location: Utoquai Badi (meet outside the entrance at 7:02am)
🌊 Swim Start: 7:15am sharp
📏 Route: Utoquai to Seebad Enge and back (\~700m each way)
☕ Post-Swim: Coffee at Etre for anyone who’s got time
🏊♀️ Equipment: goggles, green ZOWSP swim cap (get one from a committee member & twint Anna 5CHF), dry bag (not mandatory but recommended for safety)
📳 Communication: ask any member to add you to the whatsapp group.
Please note: This is an informal, self-organized group, so everyone swims at their own risk. This route is for confident swimmers only—there’s no stop or rest point mid-swim. Don’t forget your badi entry fee (8 CHF) or grab a seasonal pass if you’ll be joining regularly.
Runic Readings
Sessions of **individual runic readings** are available for beginners all along summer, both online (75 CHF) and offline in Zurich (100 CHF).
These sessions are **NOT** esoteric or divinatory. We're approaching runes as **a symbolic system of archetypes** to examine any situation or question that is currently relevant to you.
*If you feel stuck in a situation and cannot see a way forward, are facing a difficult decision, navigating a period of uncertainty, or trying to understand a recurring pattern in your life, a runic reading may offer a different perspective.*
**You will receive:**
• a clearer and systemic understanding of what is actually happening;
• insight into hidden influences affecting the situation;
• a better understanding of why certain difficulties keep repeating;
• greater clarity around available options and their likely consequences;
• practical ideas for what to do next.

Women’s Authenticity Circle
oin us for a transformative Women's Authenticity Circle, a sacred space where women come together to explore their true selves. This event blends ancient shamanic practices with modern spiritual guidance to help you connect deeply with your inner wisdom and authentic self.
**A Rich Heritage of Women's Circles:** For centuries, women’s circles have been integral to many ancient cultures. In indigenous societies, these circles served as vital communal spaces for women to gather, share wisdom, perform rituals, and support one another through life's transitions. Such gatherings were essential for fostering a sense of community, spiritual connection, and mutual empowerment. Now, more than ever, it is crucial for us to rediscover, cultivate, and nourish the balanced feminine energy in our world.
Experience profound connection, healing, and personal growth in a nurturing environment designed to celebrate and empower your authentic self.
In 2026, our Women’s Authenticity Circles continue to offer the warm, safe, and deeply connective spaces that many of you have come to cherish and we’re adding a beautiful new layer of discovery. Each month, alongside our regular sharing and reflection practices, we’ll explore one of the 12 Feminine Archetypes: from the Maiden to the Crone, the Lover to the Warrior, uncovering how these timeless energies live within us today and unlock all the power that they have to offer our relationships, families, work, and purpose.
**Why this addition matters:**
**These archetypes represent universal expressions of feminine power, wisdom, and creativity. By reconnecting with them, we begin to:**
* Recognise hidden strengths and untapped potential within ourselves
* Bring compassion and balance to parts of us we may have ignored or suppressed
* Reclaim our authenticity beyond social roles, expectations, or conditioning
* Understand the cycles and seasons that shape our emotional and creative lives
* Cultivate deeper self-trust, confidence, and inner peace
Through guided practices, embodiment, reflection, and sharing, each archetype becomes a mirror, helping us remember who we are beneath the noise of daily life.
**What you will receive:**
Every circle offers an experience of **connection, insight, and embodiment**.
You’ll leave each session with:
* A renewed sense of **clarity and self-awareness**
* **Practical tools** for emotional regulation and authentic expression
* A stronger connection to your **intuition and creative flow**
* **Rituals and journaling prompts** to continue your integration between sessions
* The warmth of **shared sisterhood and support**, a reminder that you’re not alone on this journey
**Who this is for:**
For women seeking to reconnect with their inner truth, wisdom, and feminine essence. Whether you’re in a moment of transition, longing for more depth, or simply craving a space to be real, these circles are an invitation to come home to yourself.
Whether you attend one circle or all of them, you’ll build a deeper relationship with yourself and discover your hidden potential. These circles are here to guide you toward greater wholeness, purpose, and joy. I look forward to seeing you there!

INNER RESET · Breathwork & Hypnosis
For the emotions that have been building up. For the stress you've been *managing* instead of releasing.
Inner Reset is a semi-weekly group experience that combines **breathwork & hypnosis** to regulate your nervous system and gently release what's been sitting inside.
Each week has one focus theme. We breathe to open the body, then move into hypnosis to work with the pattern beneath the feeling.
You leave clearer, lighter, and more yourself — calm, grounded, and quietly energised for your Sunday.
**What you'll take away**
* A noticeably calmer, more regulated nervous system
* Release of stored tension, stress or emotion
* More clarity, and a kinder relationship with yourself
* A simple tool (a hand-on-heart anchor) to take home
**Good to know**
* Beginner-friendly — no experience needed. You're guided step by step, and you go only as far as feels right for you.
* You stay fully in control the whole time (hypnosis is just focused, deep relaxation).
**Practical details**
* 🗓 Sunday, 10:45–12:15
* 📍 Yoga-Spirit, Steinwiesstrasse 9a, 8032 Zürich (Bellevue)

Why We Scroll: A Workshop on Attention, Energy & Habits
**[>Ticket needed<](https://link.social-circle.ch/x0RD)**
Using your phone more intentionally starts with understanding why we reach out for our phones in the first place (*hint: it has nothing to do with your lack of discipline*).
One moment you unlocked your phone to text a friend, and the next time you looked up, an hour has gone by.
This workshop will be led by **Michelle**, a neuroscientist with **a PhD in the study of human emotions**. She's spent years researching why we feel what we feel, and strives to bring science into the room in a way that's warm, accessible, and useful. Join us to understand why you scroll, and what you can actually do about it.
Grounded in neuroscience, this is a hands-on afternoon of self-reflection, group discussions, and practical tools you can use starting immediately.

Stop Guessing: How to Measure and Improve LLM Outputs
Most people use LLMs by feel: ask a question, read the answer, decide whether it “seems good,” and move on.
That works for casual use. It does not work when you are building software, automating workflows, writing important documents, or relying on AI for anything that needs to be repeatable.
In this talk, we’ll look at how to improve and evaluate the inputs and outputs of LLMs using practical measurement techniques. We’ll cover how prompt changes affect results, how to compare outputs, how to build simple evaluation sets, and how math-based methods like similarity scoring can help you move beyond guesswork.
This will be beginner-friendly, so even if you don't know anything about AI, you should get something out of it. However, this will be a little more technical than our intro talks. You do not need to be an AI researcher, but programmers and technically curious attendees will get a lot out of it.
We’ll cover:
* Why “it looks good” is not enough
* How to improve prompts by changing the input, context, and constraints
* How to compare LLM outputs more systematically
* Basic evaluation techniques for accuracy, consistency, and usefulness
* How embeddings, cosine similarity, and scoring can help evaluate results
* Where automated evaluation works — and where humans still need to stay in the loop
By the end, you’ll have a practical mental model for treating LLMs less like magic and more like systems you can test, measure, and improve.
LOGISTICS AND PARKING:
The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks!
The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
