Tips for the trainer
Be cautious here, you need to hold space for participants’ emotions and allow enough time for active listening. This ensures the activity isn’t cut short and everyone has an equal opportunity to express themselves.
Closing Activity – IMAGINE A PICTURE
Category: Closing activity
Objectives:
Cool down, connect with the present.
Short Description:
The whole group sits in a circle with their eyes closed. Following instructions, they mentally place themselves in an image, a landscape or a situation according to how they feel after the activity. As soon as they feel ready, everyone opens their eyes and shares both their experience and the image in their minds. In case there are linguistic barriers, do this activity physically as pantomime. After you close your eyes and take your time or some deep breaths, one by one take the posture that expresses how you feel now.
