The Grounding Pause: Start the Weekend Slowly
What if…
…instead of rushing from a full week straight into a full weekend, we gave ourselves permission to pause?
To put the to-do list down.
To step outside.
To breathe.
To arrive—before doing anything else.
The Grounding Pause is a simple, one-hour gathering to slow down and ease into the weekend. We’ll meet in the park, sit on the grass, journal, read, or simply be in nature together.
No agenda.
No fixing.
No pressure to share.
Just a quiet moment to come back to yourself.
For those who want them, a few simple prompts will be offered—nothing you have to follow, just something to lean on.
You’re welcome to write freely, bring a book, sit quietly, or let your mind wander.
What to bring
A journal or book
Picnic blanket or something comfortable to sit on
Water / tea
This space is for you if…
Your weeks feel full before they even begin
You move from one thing to the next without a breath in between
You want to start the weekend feeling grounded instead of depleted
Come as you are. Stay for an hour. Leave with a little more space.
