Experience or Information?

Today the boardroom DBH Lawyers looked a little different as part of their wellbeing week.

I sometimes feel the pressure to have more concrete information and do worksheets like everyone else but after the laughter, connection, play and seeing wellbeing in action I was reminded that this way of exploring assist with different perspectives and personal insights.

This is not about me being the expert in peoples lives or standing at the front and telling them what they ‘should’ do. Its about having some space to get out of their head, being hands on and reflecting on their own experiences.

A big part is being reminded of their own strategies, which is so much more powerful as they find the answers themselves and the insights to assist with next steps (plus some creativity is never wasted)

One participant said ‘Oh I have my life sorted in this process!” Now for them to transfer their folded pieces of paper into the real world: who knows what will happen!

And as one person said coming into the room, I actually don’t have time for this so it’s exactly why I need to be here.

Thank you Amy Nikolovski and team for having me back for the third time – I look forward to seeing what we do next year for wellbeing week – some finger painting to get in the body, be spontaneous and flow? I will bring the drop sheets.
