In this Advent Week of Peace\, Viktoria Kalenteris guides us into communication practices that feel calm\, grounded\, and deeply honest. This workshop is for singles and couples who want to stop shrinking\, over-explaining\, or shutting down\, and start speaking their truth from nervous-system safety. \nIGNITE YOUR CONNECTION™ blends Tantra\, nervous system regulation\, trauma-informed guidance\, and Compassionate Communication to help you express yourself without fear\, pressure\, or collapse.

Viktoria creates a supportive\, trauma-aware environment where peace becomes a skill — not a reward after conflict. \nAbout Viktoria \nViktoria Kalenteris is a Holistic Intimacy Coach with 20+ years of experience in conscious intimacy\, emotional regulation\, and trauma-informed communication. She supports individuals\, couples\, and creatives in film/TV to cultivate connection\, passion\, and grounded love. \nWebsite: playfulloving.com • IG: @playfulloving

SUMMARY:Rooted & Radiant at Serendipity: Growing Prosperity Through Ecological Community
DESCRIPTION:🫶 Potluck begins at 6:30 pm. Please bring a healthy food contribution to share. \n🌀 Circle begins at 7:30 pm \n📍South Etobicoke studio. Address provided upon RSVP. \n✅ RSVP required. Message or text to save your seat. \n🌿 All are welcome. By donation. \n\nHope is the first light of Advent\, and the spark of every new beginning. On Wednesday 19 November\, in my South Etobicoke loft\, we’ll gather to explore what becomes possible when our individual dreams meet the vision of Serendipity Nature Sanctuary: an ecological\, prosperous\, heart-centred community we are co-creating from the ground up. \nAs we step into the Advent season — the time of Hope — we each carry quiet longings and private visions of the life we want to create. Before any plans are laid or ideas shared\, this gathering offers a moment to pause\, breathe\, and listen inwardly. \nWhat is the seed of Hope within you right now? \nWhether your desire is for connection\, land\, community\, purpose\, healing\, freedom\, or creative expression: there is room here for you. \nAs we move deeper into Advent’s invitation\, we explore what Hope becomes when rooted in real soil and supported by real people. At Serendipity\, Hope takes shape as cooperation\, ecological harmony\, and the courage to build a regenerative future together. This evening invites us to consider not only what Serendipity can become\, but what each of us yearns to cultivate in our own lives. \nThis week’s gathering celebrates both the dream and the doing: how we can create true abundance by living in harmony with nature\, each other\, and the land that sustains us. We’ll explore the evolving vision of an ecological community in the country close to the city: a sanctuary where gardens\, forests\, animals\, and human beings thrive together in a living\, breathing tapestry of shared purpose. \nI will be presenting my own Hope for Serendipity: a place where ecological living and spiritual renewal meet grounded prosperity. Do you feel a resonance? Your dreams\, your longings\, and your unique sense of possibility are essential threads in this tapestry. As we share food and conversation\, may we each feel the freedom to imagine boldly and to honour the truth that community begins when individual hopes find harmony together. \nBring a dish to share\, an open heart\, and the dreams that are ready to be spoken … or simply held. \nHope is our beginning. The rest\, we create together. \n⸻ \n🌸 Haiku \nMany hands one dream \nEarth and heart weave sanctuary \nRoots entwined with grace \n⸻ \nSee past Wednesday Gatherings

Message or text to save your seat. 647-332-4325 cell/text  \n\nThis is a journey of sacred reclamation — where pleasure heals\, power awakens\, and the body remembers its truth. \nJoin us to explore the shared roots of Kink & Tantra and Theatre Therapy as pathways to healing\, empowerment\, and integration.

SUMMARY:Harmonic Reintegration: The Astrology of Power and Transformation 
DESCRIPTION:October 29\, 2025 \n🫶 Potluck begins at 6:30 pm. Please bring a healthy food contribution to share. \n🌀 Circle begins at 7:30 pm \n📍South Etobicoke studio. Address provided upon RSVP. \n✅ RSVP required. Message or text to save your seat. 647-332-4325 cell/text  \n\nAs Saturn and Neptune align in a rare grand conjunction\, the collective field is shifting; calling humanity to reconcile idealism with structure\, compassion with control. This celestial alignment mirrors the turbulence on the world stage\, where old paradigms of power are dissolving and new ones struggle to be born. \nThis evening\, Dael Wilson brings more than fifty years of astrological insight and psychological depth to explore how these cosmic forces play out through the astrology of nations and leaders; with particular attention to Israel’s natal chart\, and the planetary patterns influencing key global figures. \nBuilding on last year’s illuminating exploration of Russia and Putin\, Dael now turns his gaze toward the Middle East and the deeper archetypal drama shaping world events. Expect a thought-provoking\, wide-open Aquarian evening of discussion\, symbolism\, and creative dialogue about how astrology can help us make sense of our collective evolution. \nThe Grand Water Trine active at this time supports emotional release and intuitive clarity; helping us process the grief\, fear\, and hope stirred by global transformation. \nJoin us for a cathartic\, visionary conversation that bridges the cosmic and the political; the heavens and the human heart.

Message or text to save your seat. 647-332-4325 cell/tex \n\nIt is hard to get a standing cart moving; but once in motion\, even the heaviest cart becomes easier to guide. This evening we’ll explore how inertia shows up in our lives as karmic patterns\, mental heaviness\, physical burdens\, and emotional weight. Together we’ll reflect on how to move through these layers and awaken the “buddhi” (the soul’s intelligence) where life flows from essence rather than struggle. \nAbout the Presenter: \nEszter Jagica is a Yoga Alliance Certified teacher with 15 years of global experience in yoga\, breathwork\, and meditation. She draws on Advaita Vedanta\, Vedic Psychotherapy\, and energy healing to help people move beyond limitation into authenticity\, love\, and radiance.

SUMMARY:Walking with Ghosts: Releasing the Past\, Living the Present
DESCRIPTION:🫶 Potluck begins at 6:30 pm. Please bring a healthy food contribution to share. \n🌀 Circle begins at 7:30 pm \n📍South Etobicoke studio. Address provided upon RSVP. \n✅ RSVP required. Message or text to save your seat. 647-332-4325 cell/text  \n\nEach of us carries our past with us\, everywhere we go\, in everything we do. Most events pass through and we move on. Maybe they are not forgotten\, but they do not hold a charge. Some events\, however\, do. They are our ghosts\, following us into the present: shaping our feelings\, thoughts\, opinions\, and life decisions. \nWe spend much of our lives repelling these ghosts or clinging to them\, instead of letting them pass through. The path to serenity begins with recognizing the ghosts that haunt our present\, becoming aware of their impact\, and learning to release them. \nSo I ask you: What ghosts are you bringing into the present with you? \nJody Terio is an artist who has been drawn to all things spiritual since childhood; first through Catholicism\, then Yoga and Hinduism\, later Buddhism\, and the chasing of nature spirits. \n“If you are resisting something\, you are feeding it. Any energy you fight\, you are feeding. If you are pushing something away\, you are inviting it to stay.” \nMichael Singer
