Ready to Belong? Let’s P.L.A.Y.
A 50-page e-book to help you crush loneliness, design connection, and build the community of your dreams—one playful, mindful moment at a time.
The Belonging Manual You Didn’t Know You Needed
Written by Eli Walker, creator of Drunk Yoga® and founder of The Uplift Center, this interactive e-book gives you the tools to crush loneliness and build belonging—from the inside out.
The P.L.A.Y. Book blends storytelling, mindfulness, and a bit of humor to help you create the kind of connection that lasts longer than a networking event. Think of it as your blueprint for building the community of your dreams—without the awkward icebreakers.
Learn the Framework for Real, Lasting Belonging
Belonging doesn’t happen by accident—it happens by design. The P.L.A.Y. Method™ breaks it down into four simple, soul-level steps:
-
Place: Shape environments where people feel creative and inspired.
-
Language: Use words that invite inclusion, commitment, and safety.
-
Acknowledgment: Leverage play to get people out of their heads and into connection.
-
You: Through mindfulness techniques, embody the presence and curiosity that make belonging contagious.
Together, these four pillars turn “meh” moments into magic—the kind that builds trust, creativity, and authentic connection anywhere you go.
“The P.L.A.Y. Book teaches you how to make belonging happen on purpose—and have fun doing it.”

Build meaningful relationships at work and beyond.

Because We’re All Over “Fine.”
Let’s be real: the world doesn’t need another self-help book. It needs a practical, playful field guide for showing up like you actually want to be there.
That’s what the P.L.A.Y. Book offers—real strategies (and a few laughs) to help you feel seen, safe, and inspired to connect. Because joy is serious business. And belonging? It’s not something you find—it’s something you build.
