Personal development discussion: 3 topics to choose, topics in description
ENG
The topics we will vote to discuss are Procrastination, Inner dialogue and Self sabotage.
2 emotion topics and 1 personal challenges topic to vote for discussion.
We will try as a group of random people to sit down and talk about emotions or personal challenges. Not necessarily to find a solution or an improvement, but to share perspectives and maybe discover new perspectives.
Some people like to talk, some like to listen, at the start of each event, declare if you would prefer to participate in the discussion or prefer to listen in and chime in with an occasional question.
If only danish speaking people are coming we will speak danish, if there are non danish speaking people coming we will speak English.
DK
De fag vi skal stemme om at diskutere er Udsættelse, Indre dialog og Selvsabotage.
2 følelse fag og 1 personlige udfordringer fag at stemme mellem at diskutere.
Vi skal prøve som en gruppe af tilfældigvis folk at tale om følelser eller personlige udfordringer. Ikke nødvendigvis før at finde løsning eller en forbedring, men før at dele perspektiv og måske finde nye perspektiv.
Nogle personer kan lide at tale, nogle personer kan lide at lytte, I begyndelsen af hver diskussion, erklære hvis du vil deltage I diskussionen eller lytte og komme med nogle spørgsmål under diskussionen.
Hvis det er kun dansktalende der kommer så snakker vi dansk, kommer det ikke dansktalende så snakker vi engelsk.
CPH Collage - 88
Artwork by one of the most Iconic Female Collage Artist Martha Rosler - Her work is still current today
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martha_Rosler
The meetup lasts 2 full hours with optional overtime
Before starting, you can find our table and leave your things so Lou can grab a drink at the café.
Once we are all seated, we introduce ourselves and start cutting and pasting.
• 1s hour- the first round of collage is called freestyle to help us warm up. No restrictions, start finding images to cut out and paste.
• 2nd hour - for the second round, someone proposes some simple "trigger instructions".
In the end, we show our collages and appreciate the diversity of styles.
• After the session, we have the option to extend it a bit to get a drink or some food we can bring or order food so we can hang out a bit more. (Mellemrummet is very relaxing regarding bringing your own food from home or other venues; there is a poke place right in front.)
Everyone is free to do fewer or more collages as wished, the triggers and frameworks are only a reference. We dedicate some time to appreciating techniques, shapes, colours, and textures to learn and get inspired by each other. Alongside, we chat and relax.
These sessions are not a class but rather a community gathering. We try to nurture a friendly atmosphere and take care of each other.
--
Logistics:
• Bring your tools - paper, scrapbook, scissors, cutter, glue, tape, magazines, books, etc. Have it at your side on the day.
• Buy your favourite drink and introduce yourself to the rest of the people, we are kind of an international mix of all ages

The One with Yoga & Breakfast
\*\*\* This is a ticketed event \*\*\*
Get your ticket here: https://billetfix.dk/e/the-one-with-yoga-2/
We spend so much of our week in our heads. Rushing, scrolling, thinking about what's next. This is an invitation to start the weekend differently.
*The One with Yoga* brings together **movement and connection**: a grounding yoga session followed by a relaxed, **social breakfast**. Because some of the best conversations happen when you're a little more relaxed than usual.
It's not about how experienced or flexible you are. It's about showing up, moving in flow, being present − and enjoying breakfast together after.
**Yoga - What to Expect**
Nishita will join us in facilitating this part − she has extensive yoga teaching experience across Vinyasa, Hatha, Yin, and Hot Yoga classes, and when she’s not with us, you might find her teaching at SATS! Nishita has curated a mixed level Vinyasa class, open to curious minds, beginners and advanced yogis alike.
**Our promise to you by the end of the session?**
A boost of energy, a calm mind, and a relaxed body ready to explore where the day takes you! Come with a curious mind, alone or with a friend or two. Everyone's welcome.
We're excited to see you!
**Location**
We're hosting at 25hours hotel on Paper Island (across the water from Nyhavn), a beautifully designed space, right on the waterfront.
**Schedule**
10:00 · Check-in & welcome
10:25 · Mixed Level Vinyasa Yoga by Nishita Ramrakhyani
11:30 · Social breakfast
12:30 · Soft ending, stay as long as you like
**What’s included:**

🎶 Creative Meetup – Limited Spots 🎨
Hey!
I’m organizing a small, intimate creative meetup, and I’d love to invite you to be part of it.
To help cover food and the organization of the event, there’s a small fee of 50 kr to join.

This helps us build a thoughtful and welcoming group.
The intention is to create a space where everyone feels comfortable expressing themselves, connecting, and sharing creatively.
If this resonates with you, reach out I’ll get back to you with more details.
Looking forward to creating something special together ✨

Filosofika med Humanisterna
**Filosofika med Humanisterna**
**Dagens tema: Bör det vara tillåtet att designa sina barn?**
Dagens fosterdiagnostik gör det möjligt för oss att upptäcka och välja bort foster med vissa avvikelser och sjukdomar. Men är detta enbart av godo? Vad ska räknas som en avvikelse? Och vilka blir konsekvenserna för människor och samhälle om vi får möjlighet att detaljstyra våra barns egenskaper?
Häng med humanisterna på ett spännande samtal om designerbarn, moral och vår syn på oss själva!
Värd: Måns Ahlgren

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!
Shut Up & Write!™ Easton Town Center
We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator.
Join us on Saturday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking!
• What we'll do
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 10AM on Saturday mornings.
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:
10:00 - SESSION 1: quick intros.
10:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour.
11:10 - chat / take off / keep writing.
OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 11A-11:30ish. 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, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.
Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you!
• What to bring
Whatever you need to be able to write!
Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible.
See you at The Café on Saturday!
Saturday Mornings @ East Market
Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating.
Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator.
Per what this group is about:
"Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who enjoy talking to people from other countries, and those who would like to discuss international travel and culture, and who enjoy getting together for good conversations."
