Find it difficult meeting new people? Maybe you're stuck inside a tight knit friend circle and want to branch out. Maybe you've only got a few close friends who don't like to go out and meet new people with you. Or maybe you're searching for a romantic connection and dating apps have been a huge disappointment.

Welcome to Austin Breathwork with Friends! A laid back group of humans sharing space, doing some breathwork, and building community. If you are curious about breathwork and want to give it a try in a low pressure environment, or if you’ve been seeking a community aspect to add to your practice, you’ve come to the right place. We meet to share a mindful, present, and meditative space with each other. We will try to hold our sessions outside, at the end of each month as much as possible. It feels so good to get fresh air and sunshine! **How it works:** * **Community sharing and grounding** \- I facilitate a quick grounding exercise\, and we open with some sharing\. * **Breathing** \- Together we enjoy a Breathwork journey \(led by intuition\, each session varies and has a different theme\)\. * **Journaling & community sharing** \- After the breathwork session\, we take a moment to journal\, and space is created for any sharing desired\. * **(Optional) Post outdoor activities -** Activities such as hiking, movement/yoga, additional journaling, jam sessions, dancing, etc. are encouraged after :) **Intention:** The intention is to share a beautiful mindfulness practice with other mindful beings, to share space, and build friends and community in the process. **Additional things to know:** * All levels of experience are welcome. * This is a donation based group. If you feel compelled to support that is deeply appreciated, though there is zero pressure. * We are open to all backgrounds, beliefs, and gather as fellow humans sharing this amazing time together. * We encourage you to bring a physical journal. * Bring a mat and/or meditation cushion to sit and/or lie on. * Please wear clothing that keeps you and those around you comfortable. * If you are attending an outdoor event, please check the weather and bring anything you might need to be most comfortable. —> Your meat suit’s safety and well-being, is important to us, and is your full responsibility. Please check with your medical practitioner/professional(s) prior to joining a session. * Come as you are, and invite everyone else to do the same. **Donation link:** [Press here to donate](https://buy.stripe.com/8wMeYC8Ci4Uxal23cd). If you have any questions, please reach out. We look forward to seeing you soon! Much love, Joey P.S. A little about me. I am an ex-corporate entrepreneur, turned spiritual-entrepreneurship. I am a very creative person with many creative hobbies such as drawing and percussion. I'm passionate about both the world of business and spirituality. I started this group because I love sharing things that are blessing my life. Breathwork is one of those tools, it has transformed my life. I have had incredibly profound experiences through breathwork, and hope to share that with others (you). I also know we all seek more intentional communities, I know I do. Together, I believe we will create something beautiful. I can't wait to meet you! Want to learn more?

You assume all risks, foreseeable and unforeseeable, in any way connected with your participation. Please consult with a physician to make sure this event is suitable for you. By attending you agree that Breath Work With Friends and its members are not responsible for any losses, liabilities, injuries or damages resulting from any and all claims as a result of the information or guidance given during these sessions. .

People with cardiovascular issues, or any other serious health conditions, should always consult a medical professional before starting breathwork. These breathing exercises are a guide only, you should always listen to your body and never push yourself. Never practice breathing exercises before or during driving, swimming, bathing, or in any other circumstance where the loss of consciousness could result in physical injury. These breathing techniques may cause tingling sensations, ringing in the ears, and/or dizziness. If you feel any of these responses, don't panic it is completely normal, and consider slowing down to your body's pace. If you faint, however, you have gone too far and should take it more slowly next time.

Hello hello hello literary fiction lovers of the greater Austin Area! Are you a sexy bookish type that loves to keep up with The New Yorker's short story of the week? Interested in meeting up with others to exchange thoughts on the vicissitudes of life, love, and contemporary short fiction? Miss reading and having friends who read, but don't have the time to linger over a 300-page novel? Welcome: We have been searching for y'all and would be pleased to co-create a fun lil literary community together! Come join our group weekly for a lively, thoughtful in-person discussion of the latest and greatest work of short fiction from The New Yorker. We always read the latest story posted in the online version of the magazine, which is a week ahead of the print edition. Whether you're a longtime lover of literature or just curious to see what all the fuss is about when it comes to Murakami and pals, you're welcome all the same :-) Reading is more fun when you have people with whom to share in the delight of glorious aesthetic experiences! **Please note that this is an inclusive community space, welcoming of LGBTQIA+, queer, transgender, and nonbinary people**. Event attendees will be asked to share their preferred pronouns and to respect the preferred pronouns shared by other discussion participants. If that makes you uncomfortable, please don't attend, as tbh, the group vibes are just pretty fruity overall. **People of color seeking a diverse community and reading selection are also especially encouraged to attend**. Not that they're perfect (or that we are, for that matter), but part of the reason why we read The New Yorker's short stories is that the editorial staff has done a fairly good job in recent years of publishing writers of color and promoting, more generally, a varied array of American & international literary voices. Our reading group is also fairly diverse in terms of ethnic and cultural background, although like most social communities in Austin, there's more that we could be doing in terms of community outreach and I (Rachel) would be happy to take suggestions in this regard, if y'all have any. \*\*\* Cover illustrations by Diobelle Cerna and Tabitha Brown

\*NOW A HOSTED EVENT 🎉 - SHOP FOR GROCERIES 🥗 AND BE FRIENDLY TO STRANGERS 👋, MEET FRIENDS! 👬👭👫\* Meet Market is a monthly \*now\*-hosted gathering of single folks at the Downtown Whole Foods (Lamar location) that will involve a combination of making friends, competing in a game, eating/drinking, and getting your grocery shopping done while you're at it. The goal is to meet more people who are single and to broaden your network of friends and relationships in Austin. Not all of your friends are married! And if they are, well then, Meet Market is ready to help you make new friends in a low-key, low-stakes grocery store hangout! **1\. Make your grocery list** We actually are gonna grocery shop #efficiency **2\. Arrive around 7:00 PM / 7:30 PM** (however long you need to shop for snacks while also looking for "snacks") Show up to the Downtown Whole Foods (Lamar location . You won't know yet who is there for Meet Market, and who is just a regular shopper, which from y'all's feedback, makes it more fun.  **3\. Game on**: It's a friendly competition of how many conversations you can have with strangers while grocery shopping. If that tall guy is cute, should you ask him to reach that thing on the top shelf? If you and the cute girl are in the same wine section, should you ask what she recommends? If you're competitive, you can keep track of your "score" [see below] and we can all compare how we did when we gather for a drink at the Downtown Whole Foods (Lamar location afterwards. If you're not competitive, then do it for the good stories and the little push to get out of your comfort zone! If all else fails, you're bound to make some new friends, and maybe we’ll give an ego boost to some random shoppers who walk away feeling like they must have looked darn good at the grocery store that night. Alternatively, just feel free to skip the game and join us at the cafe at 8:00 PM after. 4\. Meet at the Downtown Whole Foods \(Lamar location at 8:00 PM Indoors or outdoors\. I'll message the group with our location\. [How to get game points] \- 1 point for every person you say something to \- 2 points for every conversation you have \- 3 points for digits\!  \- a million points if they join us in the cafe
