How I Felt…
• When the game was introduced…• When I began to learn the rules of the game…• When the rules were taken away…• When words were banned…• When I had to move & play with others…• When I realized something was “wrong”…

Strategies
• Try to listen to what’s being said, not what’s in your head.
• Be alert to how your culture filters your experience.
• When checking in, use descriptive language.• Cultivate healthy suspicion of your own
“wisdom.”
