Event Category: Valuesthon 2026

The US Values Alliance looks at individual values from multiple angles, but our overarching goal is to understand how people can activate their highest values. At this session, we will discuss the value of naming values to aspire to. Would publishing “official” American Values change anything? How does a community actually choose what values are important to them? How does a community assess that they are living up to the values they name and hold themselves accountable? Who decides the values – voters or elected officials? In France, they use a panel system to decide what is “French culture”. Would that be respected here? Organised byUS Values Alliance.

Join us for an uplifting and interactive discussion about how we can create, live and leave a Legacy of Kindness through real-life moments that matter. Together, we’ll also explore some of the simplest and most often overlooked ways we can have a positive impact on others, and how our actions not only change the world, but also ourselves. This interactive session will include exercises and discussions that will allow us to benefit from the experiences we all bring to the table. You’ll leave with new ideas, new friends and plenty of inspiration. The event is organised Jenny Haase and Brad Aronson.

Before we can give forward, we need to feel grounded. Join this guided short Sophrology session, combining breathing, gentle movement and visualisation to release tension and reconnect with a sense of calm. No experience needed, just come as you are, ready to fill your cup. This is one of several events organised by the International Sophrology Federation.

For the sake of what? Are you one of many kindly souls who rarely asks for help, but is quick to help others? Are you ready to plug into volunteering, yet worried about the costs in terms of time, money, boundaries, and energy? Volunteering your skills in service to community, humanity, with passion and commitment, focusing on what’s important to you, engaging mind, body and spirit, can be daunting, liberating and everything in between. We offer space for calm and reflection, in a community of like-minded people ready to share and explore the heart of values-based volunteering and evolve whatever is in the wings waiting to be born.

A sophrology session on values helps you identify what truly matters to you and reconnect with the principles that give meaning and direction to your life. Through breathing, gentle movement, body awareness and guided visualisation, you explore your personal values, recognise how they are expressed in everyday choices, and strengthen alignment between your thoughts, actions and priorities. The session concludes with a quiet integration pause and a brief reflection on your experience. This is one of several events organised by the International Sophrology Federation.

Know Your Values. Share Your Gifts. Make an Impact. Many people want to make a difference. Often, the challenge isn’t willingness, but knowing how to take that first step. During this one-hour workshop, dive into how aligning with your personal values can help you find clarity and kick-start how you can make a positive impact in your local community. By connecting to your values and understanding the skills you have to share, you can find your purpose and how you can give back. By asking what you value, what you have to give, and what you care about, we will build a map to guide you to the volunteer opportunities that best suit you and your skills. In connecting our values and strengths to the needs of our community, we can create purposeful action that leads to real, lasting change. Organised by ShiftUp Agency.

Our values can sometimes feel like ideas we hold in our minds, but what happens when we take them out of our heads and into our bodies? In this gentle, experiential Sophrology session, we’ll explore the values that matter most to you through a combination of mental and somatic exercises. You’ll be invited to slow down, connect with the space of your heart and notice how your values feel within you, what they mean beyond words and what deeper layers they might reveal. You're invited to pause, listen inwardly and reconnect with what truly matters to you.
