So you get what Delight~Disrupt is now... but what does it actually look like in practice?

Flatmates Sky and Pat decide to try Screen Free Sundays by doing a “No Phones” lunch each weekend. They love the time to reconnect, so after a few weeks of their screenless Sunday lunch, they extend it into doing a “Max Out” where they take a couple hours away from their phones each weekend, inviting their other flatmates to join. Some weeks they spend more time, some less. Sometimes they move their screen-free time to a different day of the week.

Teo starts doing some Tree Hugging Tuesdays “Guerilla Gardening” in a vacant lot near his home. After his neighbour Laura sees him planting seeds, he invites her to join in. After a while, they warmly invite a couple more neighbours to participate, moving their gardening to Saturdays when they’re all free from work.

Una first tries Delight~Disrupt when her organisation introduces it as a team-building exercise. She enjoys the Tree Hugging Tuesdays activities at work so much that she and some co-workers decide to form their own Delight~Disrupt pod and choose Thankful Thursdays as their favourite day, sometimes doing playful moments like “Gratitude Graffiti” or just a 3-minute “Refreshing Pause”. After a few weeks, Una and a couple members of the pod decide to also invite a handful of friends and family members to form another pod focused on Feast Fridays to get together at the end of the week, sometimes bringing what’s in their kitchens that needs to get eaten and making an inventive dinner together out of these random bits.

Joy, Bo, and Su have busy schedules that make it hard to commit to a single theme day. Instead, they decide to look for spontaneous playful moments from the Playful Moments Library to do at least once a week, taking any playful moment and doing it on any day they have free, solo or together. Soon, they’re also coming up with their own playful moments (which they can share with the Playful Moments Library). One of their favourites is also the simplest: recharging by doing a few minutes of “Barefoot Break” in the grass during breaks at work. Each Saturday, they share the prior week’s playful moments by getting together. Sometimes, they share through social media instead, hashtagging #dailydelightdisrupt to spread the delightful disruption. And twice a year, they decide to organise a Minimalism Mondays clothing swap with friends and family (though they do these sometimes on Sundays when everyone’s free).
