Simulation Exercise
A simple tool based on the principles of non-violent communication and basics of emotional intelligence
To match needs, feelings in actions in a balanced way
1. Provide to each participant a paper in a simple shape of a human body.
2. Provide a set of small pictures, that can be symbolically associated to various needs (e.g. sleeping, eating, communication etc.).
3. Ask participants to pick a paper, identify a need, stick this picture in the paper body, in some particular part, add their feeling associated to this need and say an action that has to be done to satisfy the need and change the feeling.
Close the activity with the reflection questions:
1. How easy/difficult was it for You to project Your body on a paper?
2. How comfortable were You to find out and express Your needs?
3. Analyse how basic or advanced are Your needs.
4. What could be Your next 3 steps to satisfy these needs?
5. How often do You think of and express Your needs? How do You do it? To whom? If You do not, why?
6. What would You change in Your everyday attitude/behaviour after the experience of this workshop?
