The Pause

Weekdays · 18:00 · near Bank and Canary Wharf

One quiet hour,
straight after work.

Lock your phone away. Read, draw, journal, or do nothing.No small talk. No guilt.

Reserve a seat

The hour

  1. Walk over from the office.A quiet room with tables, a few minutes from your desk.
  2. Lock your phone away.It stays with you, in a locked pouch. We open it at seven, or sooner if you need it.
  3. Read, draw, journal, or do nothing at all.For sixty minutes, nobody speaks. Nobody expects anything.
  4. Collect your phone. Go home lighter.

A quiet room. Forty people, none of them talking. Somewhere a page turns. Your phone is in a pouch and, for once, that is not your problem.

Why it works

It's booked, and it ends at seven. So you can stop without feeling you should be doing something else.
