The Mental Peace lab is a weekly meditation class where you get to tune in to peaceful mental states, which is the core of Buddhist meditation. Different approaches allow to do this, which we'll explore together. The class each time consists of a guided meditation, a practical and interactive Buddhist teaching and concludes with a nice collective meditation that draws from this teaching. After this, for those who wish, tea is served and we can chat :) The class is taught in English by an experienced meditator and translated sequentially into Greek. Wearing confortable clothes is advised. Seating is on chairs or on cushions. There is a suggested donation of 5 EUR which can be paid in cash or by REVOLUT/IRIS. Hoping to welcome you !

Την Κυριακή 21 Ιουνίου 2026, στις 18:30, συναντιόμαστε στο Gazi College Piraeus για ένα meetup αφιερωμένο στο Best Practices For AI Content Creators και στις νέες δεξιότητες που χρειάζονται οι content creators, copywriters, bloggers, marketers και digital professionals στην εποχή της Τεχνητής Νοημοσύνης. Όλες και όλοι μιλούν για AI content. Όμως το μεγάλο ερώτημα παραμένει: πώς δημιουργούμε περιεχόμενο με τη βοήθεια της Τεχνητής Νοημοσύνης χωρίς να χάνεται η ποιότητα, η αυθεντικότητα, η στρατηγική σκέψη και η ανθρώπινη φωνή μας; Ήρθε η ώρα να δούμε μαζί τι σημαίνει πραγματικά premium AI content. Όχι βιαστικά prompts. Όχι γενικά κείμενα που μοιάζουν μεταξύ τους. Όχι περιεχόμενο που απλώς γεμίζει σελίδες και feeds. Αλλά περιεχόμενο που έχει σκοπό, δομή, ακρίβεια, προσωπικότητα, SEO αξία, AI visibility και πραγματική χρησιμότητα για τον άνθρωπο που το διαβάζει. Στο meetup θα εξερευνήσουμε μαζί: * Πώς χρησιμοποιούμε το AI ως συνεργάτη σκέψης και όχι ως αυτόματο αντικαταστάτη. * Ποια είναι τα βασικά best practices για να δημιουργούμε premium AI-assisted content. * Πώς προστατεύουμε τη δική μας φωνή, εμπειρία και επαγγελματική ταυτότητα μέσα σε AI-generated περιεχόμενο. * Πώς συνδέονται το AI, το SEO, το AEO, το GEO και τα LLMs με τη νέα πραγματικότητα της ψηφιακής ορατότητας. * Πώς μπορούμε να κάνουμε ένα AI κείμενο πιο καθαρό, πιο αξιόπιστο, πιο ανθρώπινο και πιο χρήσιμο. * Ποια λάθη κάνουν συχνά οι creators όταν χρησιμοποιούν AI εργαλεία για blogs, newsletters, social media και websites. * Πώς χτίζουμε περιεχόμενο που μπορεί να διαβαστεί, να κατανοηθεί και να προταθεί τόσο από ανθρώπους όσο και από AI συστήματα. * Αν χρησιμοποιείς ήδη AI εργαλεία αλλά νιώθεις ότι το αποτέλεσμα χρειάζεται περισσότερη ποιότητα, προσωπικότητα και στρατηγική, αυτό το meetup είναι για σένα. * Αν θέλεις να καταλάβεις τι σημαίνουν στην πράξη όροι όπως AEO, GEO, LLM Optimization, AI Visibility και AI Agents για τη δουλειά σου, αυτό το meetup είναι για σένα. **Αν θέλεις να δημιουργείς περιεχόμενο που δεν ακούγεται πρόχειρο, γενικό ή άψυχο, αλλά έχει επαγγελματική αξία και ανθρώπινη παρουσία, τότε έλα στην παρέα μας.** * Ημερομηνία: Κυριακή 21 Ιουνίου 2026 * Ώρα: 18:30 * Τοποθεσία: Gazi College Piraeus * Θεματική: Best Practices For Premium AI Content * Γλώσσα: Ελληνικά * Δωρεάν συμμετοχή – κράτηση απαραίτητη! * Οι θέσεις είναι περιορισμένες – κράτησε τη δική σου εγκαίρως. Την συζήτηση θα συντονίσει η **Αρετή Βάσσου**, ιδρύτρια του **[IDEADECO SEO Copywriting Agency.](https://ideadeco.co/)** **Λίγα λόγια για εμάς:** Στον κύκλο των **Female Copywriters & Content Creators** δίνουμε χώρο και φωνή σε επαγγελματίες γυναίκες που δραστηριοποιούνται στους τομείς του digital marketing, SEO, AI, AEO, GEO, copywriting, blogging, content writing, web design, development, photography, podcasting και digital content creation. Έχουμε ήδη εκπαιδεύσει πάνω από **3.150 γυναίκες** σε όλα τα σύγχρονα εργαλεία του digital κόσμου, και συνεχίζουμε με έμπνευση, φροντίδα και ομαδικότητα. Σε περιμένουμε να μοιραστούμε εμπειρίες, απορίες και έμπνευση, πάντα με καφέ, φιλική διάθεση και ουσιαστικό επαγγελματικό networking! ***Όροι Χρήσης & Πολιτική Απορρήτου:*** *Με τη συμμετοχή σας αποδέχεστε τη χρήση, διατήρηση και επεξεργασία των απαραίτητων προσωπικών δεδομένων για την ομαλή λειτουργία του meetup (όνομα, επίθετο, email, τηλέφωνο, ιστοσελίδα, blog, social media).

Tired of dating apps or surface-level social events? This is different. Relational Labs is a guided connection experience for singles who want more honest, playful, emotionally intelligent interaction — without performance, pressure, or endless small talk. This is not speed dating. Not networking. Not “pitch yourself to strangers.” It’s a facilitated relational container rooted in psychology, emotional intelligence, attachment work, social dynamics, nervous system awareness, and real-world human connection — made practical enough that you can actually live it instead of reading another 50 books about it. ## What happens • A 2-hour guided online relational experience • Real-time connection exercises designed to create authentic interaction • A format that adapts in real time to whoever is present • Optional participant-led in-person continuation afterward • WhatsApp connection thread after the session ## This may be for you if: • You’re tired of shallow or repetitive social spaces • You want deeper connection without forced intimacy • You enjoy personal growth, psychology, communication, or relational work • You’re open to meeting people in a more intentional way ## Important This experience runs with whoever is present and takes its own shape each time. Sometimes expansive. Sometimes intimate. Both are the real thing. Booking happens through our website. 👉 Reserve your spot: [https://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join](https://consciousconnectionsclub.com/join) Optional in-person continuation: same day or within 48 hours depending on the city Most people come alone. People often leave surprised by how quickly strangers can feel human, warm, honest, and real. Sometimes awkwardness turns into ease. Sometimes curiosity turns into chemistry. Sometimes people simply remember what it feels like to actually connect again.

Based on the novel Roadside Picnic, it is NO picnic, but rather one of the masterpieces of world cinema. Andrei Tarkovsky's 1979 Soviet sci-fi classic, recounts the expedition of a writer and professor led by a mysterious guide called "The Stalker." to a futuristic wasteland called "The Zone." Dripping with existential dread, it continually presents strange occurrences that will have us debating the meaning of what we've just viewed right through the ending. *Stalker* (1979) can be streamed for free on HBOMax, the Criterion Channel or Kanopy. It's also available for rent on Amazon Prime and AppleTV. The Columbus Library has two copies on disc.

Please be careful to NOT park in private parking lots. They do tow. Check Google maps to scope out your space. Anyone who is early could easily find a parking space on the street nearby. **Glasses**: …will be provided. Please note that after the wine tasting, the glasses need to be returned to the boxes at the service table. Please be gentle, our glasses are fragile. Uh, they are made of glass! **Food**: You are welcome to bring a snack to share. It is not required. Most people do though. If no one brings anything, there will be nothing. **Code of Conduct**: Though mostly understood, it’s still worth mentioning. We don’t have rules per se, but we highly discourage the following topics of discussion because they are likely to incite anti-social responses - Sex, Politics, Religion. Please don’t mistake this as an attempt to limit your free speech rights but rather a guide to a place and time for appropriate discussions. **Extra Wine**: After everyone has had their samples, we remove the pouring spouts and any remaining wine is poured freely to whomever wants it. I hate having leftover wine. **Queen of Hearts**: The Queen of Hearts raffle is a fundraiser for the club and a Barnum and Bailey type extravaganza - minus the dancing ponies, clowns, and actual circus. Bring your ***cash*** as the Queen does not accept American Express or other plastic. **After the lights go out**: After the last sip of wine, when we clean up and turn the lights out, if you still haven’t had enough of us, it is typical for a group to get together and go to a local eatery for food and/or drinks or coffee. Again, We look forward to meeting new members and reuniting with old friends. Sincerely, ***Paul Uttermohlen***, **Red 1 Realty** *Your Hilliard Wine Club Host*

Welcome to Drunken Philosophy, a casual, curious, social discussion club. Come grab a drink and a seat at The Oracle. **Optional topic for this meetup: Where is everybody?** In 1950 the physicist Enrico Fermi was talking about aliens over lunch and asked a question that still has not gone away: if the universe is so vast and so old, and even a fraction of those billions of stars have planets, where is everyone? By the numbers the galaxy should be crowded with civilizations. Instead we look up and hear silence. That gap between "they should be everywhere" and "we see no one" is the Fermi Paradox. One of the most unsettling answers is the idea of a **Great Filter**: somewhere on the road from dead chemistry to a galaxy-spanning civilization, there is at least one step that is almost impossible to get past. Maybe the filter is behind us. Maybe life starting at all, or simple cells becoming complex, or intelligence ever evolving, is the freak accident, and we already cleared the hard part. Or maybe the filter is ahead of us, and advanced civilizations reliably wipe themselves out before they spread. Here is the part that messes with people. If we ever found life somewhere else, even pond scum on Mars, most people would call it the greatest discovery in history. But it might be the worst possible news. It would mean life is common, the early steps are easy, and the hard step is still in front of us. So the eerie silence overhead might actually be the best sign we could ask for. **Questions to wrestle with:** * Is it better to be alone? Would you rather we find alien life and learn we are not special, or find nothing and quietly improve our odds of surviving? * Where do you bet the filter sits, behind us or ahead of us, and why? * If it is ahead of us, what is it? Nuclear war, climate collapse, AI, something we cannot even picture yet? And can we do anything about a filter we cannot see coming? * Two principles pull opposite ways here. The principle of mediocrity (the Copernican principle, Sagan's "no privileged place in the universe") says we are ordinary, so what happened on Earth probably happened everywhere, which makes the silence scream louder. The anthropic principle says of course we find ourselves somewhere life was possible, since we could not observe anything else, so our being here may say almost nothing about how common life is. Which lens do you trust, and does the silence still demand an answer once you account for observer selection? * And if we did confirm life out there and had to accept we are not special, what would that do to belief in a higher power, and would shedding (or keeping) that belief help or hurt our odds of pulling together as one species? * Does any of this change how you live, or how humanity should be spending its time and money right now? As always the prompt is optional. Come for the conversation, stay for the drinks, and bring your own questions.
