Drop into presence with The Present Moment Game—a playful yet profound group meditation to meet each other in the Here & Now.
About this Event

So much of our time with others is spent reliving the past or projecting into the future. In fact, it’s surprisingly rare to really be with someone in the moment, even when we're right there with them.

But what if we had a way to fully meet one another, right in the Here & Now?

When stories about the past and plans for the future fall away, what’s left in their wake is just empty space, ready for a new kind of social experience to occur. This is the space we step into when we play The Present Moment Game (TPMG).

So, what is The Game?TPMG is an hour-long social meditation that offers a simple yet powerful technique to help people drop into full presence. We call it a game, but it’s really just a framework to deepen present-moment consciousness with like-minded individuals looking to cultivate this awareness together, in community.

Intrigued? Come play and see what it's like to experience a full hour of Right Now.

What to expect:

7:00 PM – Event begins (doors close at 7:05 - there will be no admittance beyond this time)

7:10 PM – Welcome / Review Game rules

7:25 PM – Begin Game

8:25 PM – Game ends / Group debrief

8:45 PM – Event ends

This event is in-person only. Tickets are $20 - $35 with no one turned away for lack of funds.

Alli Magidsohn is the creator of The Present Moment Game, a social meditation practice that guides people into a shared experience of complete presence. As a seasoned meaning-maker and strategist, her game is a playful yet profound invitation to shed normative social performance and, instead, explore what it means to really be together, squarely in the Here & Now.
