Play your part in Mental Health Awareness Week by attending a conversations event and having some meaningful chats with someone you care about!
Our close relationships are essential to a happy and healthy life.
They need to be nurtured with intentional conversations that go beyond everyday chats.
That’s where a conversations event comes in. It’s a facilitated experience that you attend with a friend, family member or partner.
You sit across from each other in a relaxed, casual setting and engage in a few structured activities. You set the time aside to spend with someone you care about, and we create a space where phones are put away for you to attentively listen, learn and share.
Typically there are three activities. For example, one of them involves you writing down three words you’d use to describe the person you’re with, and then spending ten minutes swapping those words and sharing your appreciation for one another.
You don’t chat to random people. The full experience is with someone you know, and by the end of the event you’ll feel a little closer to whoever you’ve attended with.
But don’t just take our word for it. Here’s what some previous attendees had to say:
"We exchanged three words of affirmation of each other. We answered three questions about ourselves. The highlight is thinking about which three words I liked most of him, and the affirmation I felt hearing what he said about me. I feel seen." - Loong in London UK, who attended with his partner.
“We’ve known each other our whole life, but this was the first time we have sat together and told each other to each other's face what we love about one another and it brought us closer than we imagined.” - Kerri in Glasgow Scotland, who attended with her best friend.
"It was great to connect with my sister in a relaxed but meaningful way. Often we only get deep when facing difficulties and those conversations are overlaid with stress. So to talk in a relaxed way was special." - Priya in Melbourne Australia, who attended with her sister.
