About this Event
Slow Sunday is your permission slip to slow down.
No phones.
No scrolling.
No pressure to perform productivity.
Just two intentional hours to reset your nervous system, connect with good humans, and protect your Sunday evening from the usual digital chaos.
This is part of the Offline Collective — YEG Thrive’s in-person community designed to help people reconnect in real life.
How It Works
4:00–5:00 PM — Quiet Hour
Bring something analog:
- A paper book
- A journal
- A sketchbook
- A crossword
- Something creative and individual
This hour is quiet and intentional.
Read. Reflect. Draw. Think. Sip something warm. Exist like it’s 1998.
Phones are not allowed during the event. (Yes, we mean it.)
5:00–6:00 PM — Connection Hour
The second hour shifts gently toward connection.
You can:
- Meet someone new
- Bring a board or card game
- Join a casual table conversation
- Or continue reading quietly if that’s your vibe
No forced icebreakers.
No awkward name-tag energy.
Just space to connect if you want to.
What to Bring
- A book, journal, or analog activity
- A small board or card game (optional)
- An open mind
- Your phone on silent and out of sight
What’s Included

Who This Is For

If you’ve been saying, “I need to get off my phone more,” this is your moment.
Capacity
Limited spots to keep the atmosphere intimate and comfortable.

A Final Note
Slow Sunday isn’t about doing more.
It’s about doing less — on purpose.
Protect your Sunday.
We’ll see you there.
