Taking slow time for yourself...

Michelle is a certified Shinrin Yoku/Forest Bathing Guide. Her passion is helping people slow down and become more connected to the moment.

GLOBAL DAY OF UNPLUGGING
Every year in early March thousands of people across the globe unplug from technology. Why? For quality human connection!
Tokyo Unplugged Village is coupling our yearly gathering with the seasonal Japanese tradition of gathering under the cherry blossoms. Join us for HANAMI + HOBBY, a picnic gathering of hanami (cherry blossom viewing) and your hobby. Together we'll enjoy food, snack, drinks and whatever hobby you'd like to bring: crafting, reading, drawing, knitting, board games, crossword puzzles, birdwatching, painting, napping and more. Join your Tokyo community and others around the globe in stepping away from your phones, laptops and computers and engage in connection with others and your environment.
​
This event will be held at Yoyogi Park on Saturday, March 28, 11am-2pm. Participants are responsible for bringing their own picnic or snacks, a blanket or picnic mat, and their personal hobby. Each registered participant will receive a complimentary Global Day of Unplugging phone knapsack for tucking your phone away in style!
