About this event

Struggling to unwind after a busy day?
Screen time (and doom-scrolling) playing havoc with your sleep?
Need a moment to yourself (but with like-minded others)?

At The Switch Off, we remove distractions and create a calm environment, so you can enjoy a relaxed start to the evening with an uninterrupted reading session.

Join a group of ten women at Tao to unwind from the working day and enjoy the simple pleasure of getting lost in a good book.

With no disruptions or noisy chatter, settle in with a herbal tea, a tasty treat and THAT book you keep meaning to read.

The session will end with an optional communal tea - ideal if you want to swap reading notes with the women you've sat with (but there is absolutely no requirement to stay on for this - you do you).

Starting on World Book Night (Wednesday 23 April) and running for 6 weeks, the sessions begin at 6pm and run until 7.30pm. Join for one session or set a healthy new habit and come along for all six.

The challenge to stay off your phone for the rest of the evening is up to you ;)

£10 tickets include a cafetiere of Nuditea herbal tea and a sweet treat.

Organized by

By running short, silent, digital detoxes, we give women a moment of calm and self-reflection in an otherwise hectic schedule. Because sometimes the only way to ensure a bit of peace and quiet, is to diarise it! Our silent sessions also provide an opportunity to think about the bigger questions – the important ones that understandably get swept aside when we’re just trying to get through each day. The Switch Off gives you the chance to get to know yourself better. It recognises that the most important relationship you’ll ever have is the one you'll have with yourself and encourages you to spend time exploring who you are and what you want from life.
