Here is a simple suggested approach, but you or your organization can be as creative as you like:

Promote and set up a local gathering or event with friends. Any location or time during Universe Day will work, but if possible, it is better to pick a location and time of the day that is highly meaningful to you and/or your group. Feel free to use and modify any press releases you find on these pages.

In the promotion of the event, use or modify any press releases or other materials you find on this Universe Day website. In your promotions, share your understanding of this celebration and any personal experiences that relate to Universe Day's messages. Invite your family, friends, community, yoga group, book club, or anyone to a specified place at a specific time. Please describe the nature of the gathering in advance and ask them to prepare by reflecting on what they know about severe climate change and on their most memorable natural experiences.

Before you start, spend a few moments getting into a relaxed, meditative state. Set the intention with attendees to use Universe Day to make or renew resolutions related to living sustainably and to learn more about the Universe Day messages.

Retell your humanity's and the universe's science-grounded common story of 13.7 years of evolution. If you have audio/visual equipment at your event, use one of the great Universe Evolution videos that show our common origin story. Retelling our common origin story each year on Universe Day is a powerful way to see, feel, and re-realize that we are all one human family!

Celebrate, discuss, dance, and/or sing following the reflections and resolution-making if that feels authentic and right for you. (Consider live video streaming of your local event. Send us a link to it, and we will try to post it on this site as well.)
