Rooted and Rested Guided meditation with plants and Reiki Healing
Rooted and Rested Guided meditation with plants and Reiki Healing
An invitation to shed the chaos, connect with the natural world, and come home to your body and community. Supported by the steady flow of Reiki healing energy, you’ll be guided into deep grounding—connecting with the earth beneath you, your breath, and the quiet wisdom within. Each participant will be given a small living plant to hold during the meditation, serving as a tangible anchor for presence, growth, and connection. As Reiki is channeled, the plant becomes a symbol and companion—reminding your body how to root, receive, and restore its natural balance. The experience is calming, nourishing, and regulating, helping to release stress, clear energetic congestion, and strengthen your sense of stability and belonging. You’ll leave feeling centered, supported, and more connected to yourself, your heart and the world around you. At the end of the session, you’ll take your plant home as a living reminder of the grounding, healing, and intention you cultivated—something to continue nurturing long after the meditation ends. After the meditation there will be tea and conversation for integration. 10% OFF Early Bird Special if you register by Thursday 6/11 with code EARLYBIRD Register at[ https://tidycal.com/dailyreikiaustin/r-and-r-plant-meditation](https://tidycal.com/dailyreikiaustin/r-and-r-plant-meditation)

Red Memory: The Afterlives of China's Cultural Revolution
Red Memory: The Afterlives of China's Cultural Revolution
Join us over drinks to discuss the book, “Red Memory: The Afterlives of China's Cultural Revolution” Description of the book: **An indelible exploration of the invisible scar that runs through the heart of Chinese society and the souls of its citizens.** “It is impossible to understand China today without understanding the Cultural Revolution,” Tania Branigan writes. During this decade of Maoist fanaticism between 1966 and 1976, children turned on parents, students condemned teachers, and as many as two million people died for their supposed political sins, while tens of millions were hounded, ostracized, and imprisoned. Yet in China this brutal and turbulent period exists, for the most part, as an absence; official suppression and personal trauma have conspired in national amnesia. *Red Memory* uncovers forty years of silence through the stories of individuals who lived through the madness. Deftly exploring how this era defined a generation and continues to impact China today, Branigan asks: What happens to a society when you can no longer trust those closest to you? What happens to the present when the past is buried, exploited, or redrawn? And how do you live with yourself when the worst is over? Lecture with author: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8I9-8V4wlBc](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8I9-8V4wlBc) Look for the group with lights and a sign.

Drunken Philosophy: Where Is Everybody? The Fermi Paradox and the Great Filter
Drunken Philosophy: Where Is Everybody? The Fermi Paradox and the Great Filter
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.
