As summer starts to almost turn to fall, tradition hands us Elul, a month built for transition. This year, we’re pointing at the glowing rectangle in everyone’s hand. Over four weeks, Permission to Unplug gives OneTable hosts and guests the thing they’ve quietly been waiting for someone to say out loud: You’re allowed to put it down!
Shabbat has been holding that door open for thousands of years. We’re just walking through it with you, one Friday night dinner at a time, until the week ends, and Shabbat begins, at candle lighting with the people we love.
Before lighting the candles and enjoying Shabbat dinner, put your phone away. That’s it. Permission to Unplug asks for one physical act, repeated weekly, that anyone can do regardless of observance or practice. You’ll be glad you did.
