Every moment history is being created and this Meetup has been organised for those that don't want to miss it! There is virtually nothing untouched by history and so much of history is related. Maybe like me you're a World War history enthusiast or does the history of the Royals our own and others hold fascination for you? The Grimaldis or Romanovs perhaps? Have you ever been to the Tower of London? Have you been inside Buckingham Palace or Tower Bridge for that matter? Did you know Churchill ha …

The worlds of hackers and journalists are coming together as reporting goes digital and Internet companies become media empires.

Welcome Ageless Women to our group for creative, career minded and ambitious women that has set high standards to live by. Recently, I've been thinking about what women really want to achieve in their lives? I guess some of us will want careers, love, have a family, health, power, money, and live happier ever after. Other women happily opt for staying single with career focused lives, emotionally supported by family and friends. Personally, I've always yearned to have a deep connected Soul sist …

Meditation is the journey from sound to silence, from movement to stillness, from a limited identity to unlimited space. Last night, I said that there are five ways through which meditation happens. Let us recapitulate. The first is by physical manipulation. Yoga, Tai-Chi, all these come under that. By stretching and contracting the body, the mind experiences a state of awareness that you can call meditation. The second is through breathing exercises and pranayama, the mind becomes quiet and sti …

Greetings! What do many of us really want to achieve in our lives? Many of the things we enjoy in life give us “tentative” joy, such as, expensive brand clothes, cars, bags, shoes, social states, power, money to name a few. However, these things are not permanent, especially consumer goods and other tangible products. Jobs, positions in the corporate world and “power” in this economic climate are all deemed important. I’m sure you have felt this too. Whilst it is a wonderful thing to be able to …

The 'reactivity series' is an old joke with a best friend to relate to the experience of our emotional buttons being pushed and thus the lack of control we have over our responses or reactivity to events in our environment. This group has but one implacable aim... To make its members as emotionally sensitive as facilitates our goals and positive life experience. If that means you get shouted out.. so be it. If that means you must approach strangers in a bar... so be it. The only rule of The Conq …
