TEiP SUMMER CAMP • FREE RETREAT • Location TBD | Thought Experiments in Public

Sun, Aug 23, 9:00 AM
From THOUGHT EXPERIMENTS IN PUBS
4.8

**A free day retreat under the trees of London, co-produced by our community.** **WHY:** Humans are naturally creative, naturally social, and naturally part of nature. Modern life squeezes our creativity, our time together, and our time outside. We want to make space (physically, temporally, economically) for people to come together, be creative, and connect with nature. **How does this connect to THOUGHT EXPERIMENTS IN PUBS (TEiP)?** TEiP has become a thriving community because our events create opportunities for people to get straight into meaningful, imaginative, creative conversations. We want to take that imagination and creativity to the next level. We've met so many people with skills and ideas to share, and so many people up for trying new things. So we're creating an opportunity for people to share and learn from one another in the same openminded, relaxed spirit as TEiP. And we're doing it outside because it's Summer, we love nature, and our last outside event attracted a huge number of RSVPs demonstrating major enthusiasm for outdoor gatherings. **How will it work?** * We'll gather in one of London's pockets of forest (location TBC) for a day. * There will be a central hub for '[hanging out](https://experimentsingroupwisdom.substack.com/p/hanging-out)', refreshments, and the occasional TEiP style round of conversation. * In nearby clearings and 'rooms of the forest', throughout the day, there will be optional activities hosted by community members (e.g. improv, forest bathing, poetry, yoga, etc.) * It will all be free! **Please [get in touch](https://www.alltogether.one/contact) if you'd like to run an activity 😊** **And please come along if you'd like to hang out and possibly try something new ❤️** **Notes on the general atmosphere:** * The vibe is relaxed, collaborative, and friendly. * Participate in as much or as little as you wish. * We appreciate both depth and levity in our conversations. * A 'beginner's mind' takes the pressure off everything. **Who should come:** Everyone! This group is not about being experts. The more perspectives, the richer our conversations and the richer our collective creativity. By bringing our various life experiences and lenses on the world together, we all become a little wiser. **What to bring**: * Something to sit on - picnic rug, camping chair, plastic bag (handy because it can double as a bin-bag at the end of the day) * Water * Other drinks/snacks for yourself (you can share if you want to, but there's no pressure) * Layers, sunglasses, sunblock, umbrella... it's London **Where we'll meet:** * Location TBD. As we've had such an enthusiastic response, we're scouting a few appropriate places I will share a what3words link when we've found the perfect spot. **Some relevant links:** Newsletter - [Upcoming events and our evolving story](https://experimentsingroupwisdom.substack.com/) 💌 Instagram -[Scrapbook and thought provoking stuff](https://www.instagram.com/thoughtexperimentsinpubs) ❤️ Whatsapp - [Occasional announcements](https://chat.whatsapp.com/DapwAXpnOHO5DRYThobpe4) Looking forward to meeting & talking & celebrating SUMMER with you! Bonny ❤️ N.B. we may take some photographs and videos at this event to share the story and help others discover our events. By attending, you acknowledge that you may appear in photos or videos. If you would prefer not to be included, just tell one of the organisers and we'll happily respect your wishes. #CoProduction #Creativity #Community #TEiPinthepark #ThoughtExperimentsInPubs #thegreatoutdoors #BritishSummer #Inclusivity #Openmindedness

From London Society of Explorers

Have you ever wanted to be immersed within either the city or nature in the form of a walk, socialise at the same time and chill out in the park or on some luscious greenery? If so, this may be the right walk for you. Welcome to another one of the HYBRID events where you have the opportunity to explore all the pathways I’ll execute and finish off at any park or location with luscious greeneries.

With this particular event, we will be doing a mini stroll through Regents park and then chill at Primrose Hill for the scenic views, the ambiance and the setting sun. Feel free to bring your picnic and anything else you wish. A mixture of traversing through nature, discovering new regions and then settling at an amazing park. The last time this was executed, it not only went well but the people who attended were immersed within the nature, saw the skyline view, had amazing conversations, formed friendships but most importantly, felt better about themselves. Since this is the 100th event that’s been executed, we may have some drinks on the hills to celebrate 100 events accomplished within this group. My fellow explorers, if you enjoyed the event, I’m more than happy to accept any donations which of course are optional but will go a long way to help me unlock and deliver even more exciting and engaging events and resources: https://www.paypal.me/calvinjoy
