Put your phone away

Imagine this:

You meet with four friends for coffee. On the table, you see a wide range of what the place offers: a flat white here, a double espresso there, a glass of tap water because your friend James is waiting for his V60, and a super delicious and overpriced vegan croissant overhearing the conversation.

Something is missing on the table. Where are the phones? Usually they mingle with the coffee and sweets, often faced upside down. They don’t belong there, but over time invaded these coffee place tables.

Are you familiar with this phenomenon? You’d see people engage in the conversation and then just casually check WhatsApp or e-mail.

This time, it’s different. Everyone’s phones are absent. 2 hours go by just like that. The conversation is genuine, interesting, warm-hearted. You feel that everyone is truly listening and simply much more present.

This true story happened on Saturday, and it reminded me again how powerful it is to be present. It can happen to you, too.

Phones are great. When in the presence of another human, they are the greatest when they’re not there.

What if the next time you are going for coffee with a friend or have a 1:1 conversation, you leave your phone in the bag?

The invitation:

On September 5th, 1pm CET, we start the very first Slow Down Club Pilot.

What happens?

We’ll come together in a safe online space every two weeks for three months. I’ll facilitate storysharing sessions, that will help to:

1. Get mental clarity

2. Feel more grounded and calm

3. Re-define productivity and success

4. Increase your sense of presence and awareness

5. Learn from shared experiences, feel seen and belong

Together, we’ll co-create the club experience. This is a unique possibility to contribute to the development of the Slow Down Club.

Who is we?

At the moment, it is Rich and me. We believe that achieving our goals and living meaningful lives without compromising on health and relationships are possible only when we focus on what really matters.

Again and again and again.

And that can be challenging alone.
Sometimes, you don’t see the forest for the trees.

Often, what you need is a reminder.
What you need is to make the space for the answers within to arise.

So we do it together. We’re looking for 3-5 more people to join us.
It’s going to be fun! 🙂 

What’s the price for the pilot?

A fraction of the regular price:
100€ for the three months.
