Every week since 2022, we have featured nude model poses, both in short and long poses. At the beginning, we have short poses (2, 3, 5, 15 minutes), then two 30-minute sessions. Between blocks, we have 5-10-minute breaks to refresh and socialize with tea and cookies. Normally, we have an interesting international group of artists, consisting of around 8-10 people, who come regularly and do not typically write about their attendance on Meetup. **Important!** Please book your ticket at Meetup by PayPal or [here](https://eventfrog.ch/en/p/art-exhibitions/other-art-events/life-drawing-aktzeichnen-in-zuerich-kreiss-4-7464977540999826660.html) On our Instagram page, you can see drawings from our artists from previous events: [here](https://eventfrog.ch/en/cockpitv3/events/7365649101847824543/overview) Please bring your favorite drawing material.

We will play word or board games, read poems, guess what a proverb or an idiom means and I might come up with other activities. If you have any suggestions let me know. You should be able to express yourself a bit and know some basics in Russian. It won't work for complete beginners. We will meet in the restaurant&bar of the Ibis Styles Hotel not far from Zurich HB.

Clarity Walk
Clarity Walk
# Schritt für Schritt zurück zu dir ## Meditative Coaching-Wanderung auf den Uetliberg Zwischen Alltag, Verantwortung und ständigem Funktionieren verlieren wir Frauen oft die Verbindung zu uns selbst. Diese besondere Coaching-Wanderung lädt dich ein, bewusst langsamer zu werden, durchzuatmen und wieder bei dir anzukommen. Gemeinsam gehen wir vom Triemli auf den Uetliberg – begleitet von achtsamen Coaching-Impulsen, stillen Gehphasen und Momenten der Reflexion. Die Natur wird dabei zu einem Raum für Klarheit, Ruhe und neue Perspektiven. Schritt für Schritt darfst du dich deinem persönlichen Thema nähern – ganz ohne Druck, ohne etwas leisten zu müssen und in deinem eigenen Tempo. Vielleicht stehst du gerade vor einer Entscheidung. Vielleicht spürst du, dass sich etwas verändern darf. Oder vielleicht wünschst du dir einfach einen Moment nur für dich. Diese Wanderung schenkt dir Raum, um wieder klarer zu hören, was deine innere Stimme dir eigentlich sagen möchte. Am Ende erwartet dich nicht nur die wunderschöne Aussicht über Zürich und die Alpen – sondern vor allem mehr Verbindung zu dir selbst. *** ## Was dich erwartet ✨ Achtsame Bewegung in der Natur ✨ Coaching-Impulse zur Selbstreflexion ✨ Zeit für dich und deine Gedanken ✨ Austausch in einer kleinen, bewussten Gruppe ✨ Neue Klarheit und innere Ruhe *** ## Ziel der Wanderung * mehr Klarheit über ein persönliches Thema gewinnen * Abstand vom Alltag und inneren Druck finden * neue Perspektiven entwickeln * wieder bewusster mit dir selbst verbunden sein * einen konkreten nächsten Schritt für dich mitnehmen *** ## Ablauf & Key Facts 📍 Strecke: Triemli → Uetliberg ⏰ Dauer: ca. 2,5 Stunden 🌿 Format: Geführte Coaching-Wanderung mit Geh- und Reflexionsphasen 💗 Für Frauen geeignet – keine Coaching-Erfahrung notwendig 🥾 Voraussetzung: normale Grundkondition 💰 Kosten: CHF 25.– pro Person Anmeldung unter: [www.passionandfocus.ch](http://www.passionandfocus.ch/) *** ## Für wen ist der Clarity Walk geeignet? Für Frauen, die sich bewusst Zeit für sich selbst schenken möchten. Für Frauen, die spüren, dass ein Thema in ihrem Leben Aufmerksamkeit braucht. Und für alle, die sich nach mehr innerer Ruhe, Orientierung und echter Verbindung mit sich selbst sehnen.

Shut Up & Write!® East Side Columbus
Shut Up & Write!® East Side Columbus
Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 7:00pm on Wednesday, February 11 at Streetlight Guild. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. **SCHEDULE:** 6:45ish - Quick introductions 7:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour 8:00 - The End **OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING** happens before and after the writing hour. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. **BEING LATE IS OKAY:** just show up and get settled! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild! **WHAT SHOULD I BRING?** Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you! **OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:** * **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space! * **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels. * **WIFI/OUTLETS:** Outlets are limited, so please ensure your devices are charged when you come! But Streetlight Guild does have free WiFi! Yay! * **PARKING:** There is free public parking at Streetlight Guild.

Shut Up & Write! Kingsdale Shopping Center
Shut Up & Write! Kingsdale Shopping Center
Greetings writers! Come down and join your fellow wordsmiths for one hour of uninterrupted writing time in the upper level of the Market District Supermarket in Upper Arlington. The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo. Writing is largely a solitary craft. Practicing with others in a community setting may be the thing you need to fire your own routine. We’ll meet on Wednesday evenings, starting the clock at 6:30, following a brief period of introductions. This is solid writing time and all inclusive. Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you. The market boasts a Starbucks, a full service bar and various affordable food options. Parking is plentiful, free Wifi is provided as well as outlets for charging your devices, though they are somewhat limited, so plan accordingly. Show up as early as you like, or stay late. This group tends to socialize some, both before and after the alloted time, but this is not mandatory to you. Feel free to come and go as you please and late arrivals are welcome. The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit. Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for all—the venue can be busy at times. Feel free to message me privately wth any questions and/ or concerns you may have. Happy writing!
