Unplug and Reconnect
with EMP Sunday
In our constantly connected world, it's easy to lose touch with the simpler things - nature, family, community, and ourselves. EMP Sunday is a movement to step back from modern technologies and revive those human connections.
Every Sunday, we challenge our members to practice one of four levels of simple, natural living:
Level 1:
Digital Detox
Unplug and Reconnect. Every Sunday, we invite you to step away from the buzz of digital life. Turn off your devices and TVs, silence your notifications, and discover the joy and peace that come from disconnecting. Whether it’s reading a book, exploring nature, or enjoying quality time with loved ones, every Sunday is about finding happiness in the world around us, beyond the screen.
Level 2:
Power Down
Experience Simplicity. Once a month, challenge yourself further by turning off the electricity for several hours. Light candles, play board games, cook with alternative methods, and appreciate the quiet and simplicity of life without electric power. This is an opportunity to explore how our ancestors lived and to understand that we can find contentment and resilience in simplicity.
Level 3:
Off-Grid
Embrace Self-Sufficiency. Every three months, embark on a day-long adventure entirely off-grid. From sunrise to sunset, use no utilities, relying instead on your skills and creativity to cook, entertain, and sustain yourself. This day is about mastering self-reliance, challenging your adaptability, and strengthening your connection to the natural world.
Level 4:
Bug Out
Prepare and Connect. Biannually, we take our preparation to the next level with Bug Out Sunday. Gather your bug out bag and join the community as we simulate a day of emergency preparedness and survival. Practice essential skills in a supportive group setting, share knowledge, and learn from each other’s experiences.
