What is Re-Connect?
BEING PART OF A HEART-CENTERED COMMUNITY
You write and receive letters within the ReConnect community. What you write is a thought or reflection on life following our monthly theme, and you send it to the persons on the list provided to you (one person each month).
This process allows you to write freely and authentically, to invite trust and synchronicity. During the monthly online call, you have the opportunity to see and hear other participants and be part of a supportive community.
SENDING MAIL
Invite a simple slow-living practice into your life! You will have a flexible structure to support you in creating a monthly practice of slowing down and writing from your heart.

The Story Behind ReConnect
​
At the end of the Summer 2020, in order to break from the draining and superficial pace of social media and to connect with others in a deeper way, I decided to send a letter in which I shared personal stories and reflections on life. Overtime, this letter was sent to over a hundred people each month. What started as an experiment became a monthly embodied practice and a process of re-connecting in a meaningful way.
A few months later, I participated in the 100-day project and chose to send a card or letter to people who would give me their address - most of them strangers. The amount of synchronicities and common threads between what I wrote and people's own experiences was amazing.
I received so many messages from people telling me how they loved to take the time to open my letter with a cup of tea, savoring a moment of peace and reflection in a quiet environment. Each message helped me realize how precious and heartfelt this process is.
​
This really made me want to bring back the practice of writing letters, and make it easy for others to invite it in their life. It is so much more than writing on a piece of paper: it is a true and authentic way of being present, listening, and reconnecting both with ourselves and with others.
​
It is such a joy to create these beauty-full packages, send them to each participant, and bring this program to life!
