The Intentional Pause: Meditation in Nature
What if slowing down is the practice?
The Intentional Pause is a recurring guided meditation session held in nature, designed to help you step away from the rush of daily life and return to yourself.

Whether you’re new to meditation or simply looking for a grounding pause, you’re welcome just as you are.

Sort with Purpose: Volunteer with HYC x Cloop
Ready to make a difference?
Join us for Sort with Purpose, a hands-on volunteering session hosted by HYC and Cloop. Help sort donated clothing, learn about textile waste, and give pre-loved garments a better chance at finding a second home.
Why it matters
Textile waste is one of the fastest-growing waste streams. By helping to sort donated clothing, you'll support the circular economy and increase the chances of garments being reused, upcycled, or recycled instead of becoming waste.
What you’ll do
- Sort and categorise donated clothing
- Identify pieces for reuse, upcycling, or recycling
- Learn how textile waste is managed in Singapore
- Work alongside like-minded youth who care about sustainability

EQ Café - Reconnecting to Purpose
We are taught to look for purpose out there; in the right job, the right cause, the right plan, and when the world doesn't cooperate, purpose starts to feel like something we've failed at. But purpose doesn't begin as a plan. It begins as a feeling.
This EQ Café invites you to follow your own emotions to what matters most to you. Drawing on the emotion–needs model from Joshua Freedman's new book Emotion Rules, we'll discover that our feelings — including the uncomfortable ones — are signals pointing toward needs. And the largest cluster of all points toward meaning.
Then we'll do something practical: we'll look at where we've been locating our sense of purpose, and move it somewhere we can actually reach it. You'll leave with a first draft of your own Noble Goal, a short statement of purpose you can practice today, not someday.
In this Café, we will explore:
• What are my feelings actually pointing me toward?
• Why does purpose feel so heavy — and where have I been locating it?
• What do I want to add to the world, and how do I practice that today?
This Café invites you to stop searching for purpose and start listening for it.
When: Sunday, 15 Nov at 2.30pm to 4.30pm
Where: Tzu Chi Humanistic Youth Centre, Power Station I
2:30 PM - 4:30 PM
