How do we make gatherings meaningful when we cant be physically together Our host is Priya Parker, a professional conflict facilitator and the author of The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters.

Heres her most important advice about celebrating your birthday.

We are all experiencing this pandemic differently at different moments and with different amounts of trauma and light.

There arent many things we can control at the moment, but there are some small actions that are still within our domain.

One of them is the way we spend our time, with whom, and for what purpose.

Challenge the idea that when we are stuck at home we are not changing.

If youre wanting to be more of a reader, perhaps use your birthday to invite people to read a book together aloud for 14 hours together.

Ridiculous, I know.) If youre practicing being more vulnerable and open in your friendships, invite six friends to a digital dinner, maybe on Zoom, and share with each of them why you love them.

If youre trying to be open to new experiences, invite your friends to join a virtual sound bath.

Imagine you could take three things with you but also you were invited to relinquish three things.

What are the three qualities or beliefs or images that you would want to carry with you What would be three things that you would be ready to let go of Ritual doesnt need a group or a collective.

But when we do a ritual in front of others, it can carry more weight, because youre acknowledging that its happening.

Witnesses matter.

And these participants are part of making that crossing happen through that witnessing and into the future, helping make the change permanent.

Should people be prompt Does the door close at a certain moment Or can they come and go at different times.

Communicate in advance to your guests so they know what to expect.

You can even have like six birthday parties now and no one will find out.

Its never been easier to have different phases to an event, without it getting awkward or people bumping into each other between events.

Particularly for milestone birthdays, create a few layers to your gathering.
