Reading hour (Copenhagen)

Your weekly hour to: 1. Slow down 2. Put your phone away 3. (re)Train your attention to focus on just one thing: a good book. A weekly moment to pause and read. We gather, open our books, and spend an hour focused, offline. That’s it. Sit together or apart. Talk if you feel like it, or stay completely in your own space. No structure beyond showing up and reading. There is no host: you make the meetup happen by showing up. If more people join: great. If nobody else join: great too. Just keep reading ☺️ https://maps.app.goo.gl/NvXumnyRn22HqY8EA 17:50 - 18:00 pm - Readers arrive and find seats 18:00 - 19:00 pm - Quiet reading hour Optional social time: 19:00 - 19:30 pm - Chat about books, people or ideas...

It hits different. This hour gives you a clean break from the constant stimulations of modern life. No screens, no interruptions - just one hour to read and be present. Being offline is simple and refreshing. People who want to slow down, read more, be less distracted. No need to be social, no need to perform. Just show up. Feel free to invite your friends, grandma, colleagues, crush… (Note: in case it rains, then let's all consider the reading hour is cancelled. See you next week!) Reading Hour meetups are happening in cities all over the world.

I feel many of us want this, but don't exactly know how to go about it. I hope this helps a little bit. I also work as a transformational career coach: I help people who feel stuck in "auto-pilot" to overcome overwhelm by rebuilding their sense of agency and congruence in the decisions and actions they take. All this to ultimately live more fulfilling lives.
