Parenthood is no walk in the park, and it truly does take a village.

That’s why we’re creating a welcoming space for parents and their little ones to come together, connect, and share the journey.
Join us for our Parents & Tots Playgroup, a relaxed weekly gathering where you can:

• Meet other parents and build lasting friendships
• Share experiences, advice, and laughter in a supportive community
• Give your little ones the chance to play and interact with others
• Take a well-deserved break in a warm, understanding environment

When: Fridays
Time: 11:00 – 13:00
Cost: Free to attend
Open to parents with children of all ages

This group will run with a minimum of 3 sign-ups—so if you’ve been craving connection, now’s the time to say yes!
Come as you are, bring your little one, and let’s create the village we all need.

Join us for a hands-on Dim Sum workshop! Learn about the history of a traditional Chinese dish, hear personal stories, and cook together.

Dim Sum (點心) is a type of Cantonese cuisine that originated in the city of Guangzhou, China 1,000 years ago. Beginning as a tradition of serving two sweet or savory snacks with tea service, Dim Sum has evolved into a weekly brunch activity called Yum Cha (飲茶) that many Chinese families participate in to catch up each other. With over 2,000 varieties of Dim Sum, each meal is a chance to experience something new.
In this workshop led by students from the Master of Service Design program at Hochschule Luzern, you will learn how to make one traditional Cantonese Dim Sum dish with two different fillings, a dessert, and taste a special Chinese tea. You will learn about the history and significance of the dishes and the philosophy behind the recipes.

What to Expect

• A short introduction about the dish
• Interactive dumpling folding and cooking
• Vegetarian options available

This workshop will not generate profit and the cost of admission will cover ingredients only. This workshop will also contribute data to several research studies for the students’ master thesis, but you may opt out of this contribution.

Amount of Time 3 Hours
Workshop Capacity 10 Participants
Price per Person 20 CHF

About Your Facilitators:

A dedicated weekly space for men who want to ground themselves, reconnect with purpose, and strengthen their presence in order to show up in integrity in all areas of life.

Why this matters:
Modern life pulls men in many directions: work, family, community, and responsibilities. Meditation offers a powerful way to pause, regroup, gain clarity and clear intention with what truly matters.

Benefits include:

• Greater emotional balance and stress reduction
• Improved focus and clarity
• A stronger sense of inner direction and purpose
• More patience and presence with family and loved ones
• Enhanced resilience in challenging situations
• The ability to respond rather than react
• A deeper connection to self, values, and mission

Why “questioning the mind” is essential:
Men often carry silent expectations: to be strong, dependable, unshaken. But real strength comes from awareness, not suppression.

Meditation creates space to question the automatic patterns of the mind:

• Is this belief truly mine?
• Why do I react this way?
• What do I actually want for my life and the people I love?

This practice helps men break out of old conditioning, step into authenticity, and show up with integrity for themselves, their families, and their communities.

About your facilitator:
This space is held by Anna, healer, transformation coach, and founder of The Powerful Self. She has guided this work for years, blending ancient shamanic wisdom with modern spiritual psychology to support deep transformation. Anna is deeply committed to helping men live lives of long-term fulfillment, purpose, and peace. She is here to walk alongside you as you grow into your fullest, most grounded self.
