The Feelings Game
What do I feel?
Feelings play an important role in our lives. They greatly influence our behaviour. That is why it makes sense to understand them. However, many people find it difficult to put their feelings into words.
The purpose of this game is to help you discuss the way you experience situations, people or organisations. As a result, you will not only become more aware of yourself, but you can also understand others better.
