About this Event
We've hit the end of our collective threshold for zoom meetings and facetimes and dating apps. We're tired of algorithms turning us into data points and outsourcing our deep, human need for connection, to devices that could never replace a heartbeat and nervous system.
It's time for a revolution where we put our phones to the side... just for a moment, and experience what true presence really is again.
The reality is, nothing will ever matter more than our relationships to one another... and the research demonstrates time and time again... Human connection is everything.
In a world that is getting more and more technological, what we need now more than anything is real-life, in-person, immersive experiences... surrounded by other people.
We need each other.
And since we can't run from our biology...
That's why I've created The Future is Human --> an all day, device-free event, centered on gathering with like-minded people, learning about why relationships are so important, how to create epic ones, why your biology craves real , authentic connection, and returning back to what matters most... love + connection.
The event is on February 28th and it will be featuring me (hi 👋), Mark Groves (human connection expert), and multiple guest speakers (to be announced).
We will have lots of activites and experiences centered around connecting with others, lots of opportunities to go deeper within, eat delicious food from MUD\WTR :gather, do some sauna and cold-plunging action, and hang out like it's 1996. (aka, tech free.)
Discover new tools and emerging tech designed to help you reclaim your attention, help heal your nervous system, and work with your body and mind so that you can build a positive relationship with the devices and platforms shaping your everyday life.
If you’re ready for an experience that is phone-free, community centric, and coupled with delicious food and deep conversations about all the things, this event is for you.
This event is designed to reconnect you back to what truly matters, remind your body of what it means to be in a space surrounded by people who aren't staring at their phones (ps. it's amazing), and just chill, enjoy coffee, great food and conversation, and unwind.
In this 5-hour workshop, you’ll experience:
- Keynote + live teaching with Mark Groves on building a healthier relationship with technology
- Guest speaker sessions (to be announced) featuring some of the top minds and hearts in the space of relationships, technology, and how to find balance in today's world.
- Exercises to connect and meet like-minded souls and build community. (and maybe find your person...)
- Interactive discussions + guided reflection to help you apply what you learn to your real life
- Heart-opening and soul-stirring conversations designed to leave you more connected to yourself and others.
- Hands-on exploration of new technology designed to support wellbeing, focus, and nervous system regulation
I (Mark) am so friggin pumped for this. My soul has been calling me to create more events, especially ones that invite us back into presence and help heal our bodies from the constant nudge and extraction of our phones.
I cannot wait to see you there!
