Let the world in

Let the world in.

Phone away. Headphones off.

There’s a whole world happening around you.
Give yourself the chance to notice it.

Try twenty minutes

Start where you are

Make room for real life.

A familiar journey. Your lunch break. A walk around the block.
Choose a part of your day and experience it a little differently.

  1. Put your phone away.

    In your pocket or your bag. Let a moment happen without reaching for a screen.

  2. Take a headphone break.

    When it works for you, pause what’s playing, turn off the noise cancelling. Hear the everyday world around you.

  3. See what you notice.

    Look around. Let your thoughts wander. There’s nothing to achieve or report back.

Make it work for your life and your needs. No streaks. No perfect way to do it.

GIVE IT TWENTY MINUTES

A small change.
See what happens.

Your next commute. A walk. Part of your lunch break. Try twenty minutes with your phone away and your headphones off.

You might get bored. You might reach for your phone without thinking. Give it a little time.

Maybe you notice something you usually miss. Maybe you have a conversation. Maybe you just get twenty minutes without another notification.

You don’t have to overhaul your life. Try it a few times and see whether it’s something you want more of.

A reminder from the real world

Why a sticker?

A reminder to look up can live somewhere you’re already looking. On a notebook. In a café window. On the table in front of you.

Outside the feed.
A sticker or a beer mat meets you in an everyday place. It’s a chance to bring your attention back to where you are.
There when you pass again.
A reminder can stay in the same place, giving you another opportunity to notice it and pause.
Easy to pass on.
Put one on something you own, ask a café to display one, or give a few to friends. A small invitation can travel beyond the person who bought it.

That’s why we’re starting with stickers and beer mats: simple reminders, in ordinary places. Help us put them out there.

Help spread the word

A small thing you can do

Put the message
where life happens.

If you miss those moments when people notice each other and the world around them, help us make that invitation more visible. One reminder is a start. More of us passing it on gives it more places to be seen.

Always get permission before placing stickers or mats in shared spaces.

Stickers

Removable stickers for your own things and agreed displays. A notebook, a laptop, a community noticeboard: places where the same invitation can be seen again and again.

Bar mats

Cardboard mats for café and pub tables, or your next community get-together. Ask the venue first, then let the message sit where people already pause and talk.

Buy a pack. Give the message a place.

Our stickers and bar mats are ready to order. Choose a pack, put a few reminders where people will see them, and pass some on to someone who feels the same. Every purchase helps us spread the message further.

Help us get it out there

Have a place for the message?

Have a question about the packs? Tell us where you’d share them,
or get in touch with an idea.

A small reminder. More of us passing it on.
