This game can stir up uncomfortable thoughts. If at any time you
|
|
encounter a thought that you don't want to pursue then give yourself
|
|
permission to just let that thought pass by. If you are unable to let it
|
|
go then write "Here ends the session." and give yourself time to
|
|
recover. This game is about exploration of our thoughts, not dredging up
|
|
painful or discomforting thoughts.
|
|
*Note:* Before using the condensed version of the game for play, please
|
|
be familiar with the full version of the game.

** The Game

:END:
|
|
The main goal of the game is to have you think about this moment in time
|
|
and focus on it. The prompts are there to help you focus on one
|
|
particular aspect of this moment in time.
|
|
|
|
*** Choosing a prompt
|
|
:PROPERTIES:
|
|
:CUSTOM_ID: choosing-a-prompt
|
|
:END:
|
|
Roll the die to determine which of the prompt(s) to use
|
|
|
|
Take a few seconds to think about the prompt. Many times we'll already
|
|
have something in our mind relating to the prompt, but if not the feel
|
|
free to use the following as a guide:
|
|
|
|
| *1. Who?* | other people or ourselves | *2. What?* | items or ideas that we have |
|
|
| *3. Where?* | places or mental space | *4. When?* | time |
|
|
| *5. Why?* | purpose, motivation, or current feelings | *6. How?* | current state |
|
|
|
|
*** Write about it
|
|
:PROPERTIES:
|
|
:CUSTOM_ID: write-about-it
|
|
:END:
|
|
Once you have given the prompt some thought the next part is to write
|
|
about it. /Don't overthink this./ There's no wrong answer to these
|
|
prompts. Whatever is grabbing your attention is what you should write
|
|
about.
|
|
*Remember*: this is a game about exploration of our thoughts. There's no
|
|
right or wrong way to do this.
|
|
|
|
*** Agitation
|
|
:PROPERTIES:
|
|
:CUSTOM_ID: agitation
|
|
:END:
|
|
During the game you'll notice yourself getting agitated, especially if
|
|
you've set a timer and that time hasn't elapsed yet. That's part of the
|
|
mindfulness process. Just note that you experienced agitation, either by
|
|
moving a token or marking "agitated" in your journal. Then try to return
|
|
back to the process of writing.
|
|
|
|
If you have noted "agitation" three times then stop. Move to *Finishing
|
|
the game*.
