Switch your phone to “airplane mode” and take part in a healthy, silent “protest” through a Silent Walk against the digital noise in your life.

The concept is simple: walk without your phone, without music in your headphones, without podcasts, without conversations. Just you, your breath, the sounds of the forest, and the rhythm of your own steps.

September 7, 2025, is a special date, chosen especially because it gives us the chance to enjoy a total Lunar Eclipse.

Host

Eugenia Dobrescu – An INSPIRO community-builder with experience in creating meaningful spaces. At this event, her role is to hold the space for us to be together—even in silence—and to explore real-life experiences without interruptions.

What to bring:

• Comfortable summer clothes, ideally with long sleeves

• A hat or cap

• A picnic blanket

• A bottle of water

• A snack for yourself or to share with others (optional)

Silent Walk

Recharge yourself by savoring each step in silence—100% offline, uninterrupted by phone or smartwatch notifications.

Studies list many benefits of silent walking, such as:

✅ lowering cortisol levels (the stress hormone)

✅ improving focus and creativity

✅ strengthening connection with your body and emotions by reducing external and internal noise

✅ lowering blood pressure and heart rate

We encourage you to continue silent walks in the days that follow. If you commit to at least 10 consecutive days of walking for 15 minutes or more, research suggests your emotional wellbeing will improve significantly.

You don’t even need to believe this—JUST SHOW UP and experience the benefits of a Silent Walk.

Picnic & Connection

After exploring your own thoughts and emotions in silence, we’ll enjoy an hour of relaxation on the picnic blanket together with the other participants. Bring whatever you’d like from home and share only if you wish.

Disclaimer: To join INSPIRO Club events, we ask you to hand over your phone as part of the challenge to be authentically human. However, if—for reasons unknown—your phone gets “enchanted” by the beauty of the forest or finds something else to do, INSPIRO Club cannot be held responsible.

Alternatively, you can simply commit to switching your phone to airplane mode upon arrival (or even before) and not touching it during the event.
