From " F*ck It I'm Single " Social fun & friends & adventures.
4.5

We will wait approximately 10- 15 minutes and then head up the park to hopefully see the ISS go over at 7:21 PM. It will be visible for 5 minutes! It will be 10° above NNW. Bring binoculars--not necessary. I've seen it without them before. We will walk to the grassy area next to the Hollyhock house. Link: [https://www.nasa.gov/spot-the-station/#Sightings](https://www.nasa.gov/spot-the-station/#Sightings) You'll have great views of the city up here too and get to see cool architecture like Frank Lloyd Wright Hollyhock House. [https://www.barnsdall.org/](https://www.barnsdall.org/) No one in bad health since we are walking up some stairs. Bring warm clothes. **Cloudy or rain cancels.**

Release Trauma\. \> Sunday\, October 18 \| 5:00\-8:00 PM PST Please reserve your appointment and complete medical forms on Acusimple: tinyurl.com/CTCClinic *Meetup signup notifies us of your interest, but it does not reserve an appointment.* **Community Harmony Acupuncture Clinic** is a recurring gathering, offering trauma-aware, heart-centered care rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine. While **our focus is mental and emotional well-being**, many people also experience relief from physical pain, tension, headaches, digestive imbalance, and stress-related symptoms. In Chinese medicine, healing is about restoring circulation — of energy, blood, breath, and emotion. When things move, we feel lighter. When we feel safe, we release. This *group-style experience* includes **individualized acupuncture, along with sound healing, guided meditation, and aromatherapy** **to support deep nervous system reset** in a peaceful shared space. Our main provider is **Winnie Chan Wang**, joined by additional community practitioners offering healing support. This clinic is **free and donation-based**, with a suggested $20 contribution to help sustain the program and keep care accessible to all. It’s gentle. It’s grounding. It’s surprisingly relaxing. Many first-timers say, “I didn’t know acupuncture could feel like this.” Come try it. Come receive. Come let your nervous system reset. **Appointments are required (limited time slots available).** **Reserve your appointment here:** [tinyurl.com/CTCclinic](tinyurl.com/CTCclinic) **Location:** **📍 2801 E.
