Eye Contact Experiment @ YCC, Sunday 630-9pm ð
詳现
What would your life be like if you felt more connected to yourself and the people around you?
Most of us want more connection. But even when weâre surrounded by people, we donât always have the space to slow down and really meet each other.
This evening is an invitation to do just that. Through guided eye contact and conversation, weâll explore what happens when we give another person our attention and notice whatâs happening within ourselves.
Come on your own or with a friend. First-timers are very welcome. :)

What to expect
Weâll move through 4â5 guided rounds of eye contact, changing partners between rounds.
Each round will offer a different inquiry to help you explore your present-moment experience. For example:
- What happens when you allow yourself to be seen?
- How can you let go of some your defenses and just be here?
- Can you stay connected to yourself while being with another person?
During the eye contact, weâll sit together quietly. After each round, youâll have about 8-10 minutes to talk with your partner, share what you noticed, and listen to their experience.
There will also be time to reflect together and get to know others in the group.
Sometimes it feels awkward. Sometimes thereâs laughter, warmth, sadness, or a surprising sense of ease. Thereâs no particular experience you need to have. The practice is simply to notice whatâs here, with curiosity.
Go at your own pace
Youâre welcome to look away, take a break, or sit out a round at any time. You choose how much you share.
No experience with meditation or eye contact is needed. You donât need to feel confident or know what to say. Come as you are.
ð What to bring
Water, comfortable clothes, and a little curiosity. :)
ð Before you come
Please register only if you plan to attend. If your plans change, cancel your registration so someone else can take your place.
Please arrive before our 18:30 start and check the room carefully: weâre in Studios 4 & 5 on the 3rd floor.
