Live Online Play Breaks
25 mins of interactive activities to nourish your playful & creative spirit
THE ARENA TO PRACTICE PLAY
When was the last time you played as an adult? When was the last time you gave yourself permission to be spontaneous and creatively free? If you’re disconnected from the part of you that loves surprise, novelty, and wonder, this is intentional time to nourish that carefree, inner creative inside of you.
No talent required
Play with others
Low-stakes
Play through creative arts
THIS IS FOR YOU IF
- You miss feeling creative, playful, or spontaneous.
- You spend more time consuming than you'd like and want to do something creative.
- You overthink, second-guess, or judge your own ideas.
- You'd love to connect with other people without the usual awkward small talk.
- You want to make more time for fun but never quite get around to it.
You don't have to consider yourself a creative person. You don't even have to know what kind of play you enjoy. That's what you're here to explore.

WHAT IS A PLAYSCRIPTION?
Activities designed to shake off your inner perfectionist and “try on” experimenting with your creativity. Playscriptions look like (but aren't limited to):
- Word games
- Drawing games
- Co-creating absurd inventions with other members
- Lighthearted poetry writing
- Interpersonal connection games
You might surprise yourself with what comes out when you stop trying to be the "good student" who gets everything right.
COME READY TO PLAY
To get the most out of our time together:
01
Be on Camera
we'll be interacting with each other, so we need to see you.
02
Bring Paper
some paper and something to write or draw with.
03
Find a quiet spot
somewhere you can focus, speak freely, and be silly without worrying about who's watching.
04
Time & attention
stay the whole time & join from somewhere stationary, not while driving or doing errands.
Show up exactly as you are!
You don’t need to have fun, laugh loud, be extraverted, or behave like a toddler. Being playful is a deeply personal and authentic attitude that is driven by your own, unique curiosity and competencies. Come as you are!

WANT MORE PLAY IN YOUR LIFE?
Play Breaks are highly complementary to what we do during Imagination Journeys- a monthly, two-hour event that feels like a dreamy meditative sanctuary. Each month we play inside a new imaginary world and practice surrendering to our creative imagination. Come try a session and see what you think!
