Cry Pop-Up at Hippie Hill

## 🌍 About This Event

In a world that often tells us to “stay positive” and hide our tears, we forget that crying and mourning are powerful forms of healing.
On September 20th, join Slow Neighbor, a psychology startup dedicated to community mental health, for a Cry Pop-Up at Hippie Hill. This open-air charity event offers a safe space for emotional release, reflection, and solidarity.
Whether you cry, sit quietly, or simply share presence with others, this event is about normalizing vulnerability and collective healing.
