Hi there,
It's nice to meet you.
I enjoy making new friends and playing games together.
I've prepared a really special game to play with you today.
Are you ready?
In this game we're going to be on the same team and as teammates we're going to join together to learn how you can make any challenging situation going on in your life a really wonderful learning experience for you.
Can you believe it?
Do you want to try?
Great.
We're going to start by closing our eyes.
So close your eyes and let your body relax.
You can take a deep breath in and you can breathe out and go into your imagination and pretend that together we're going into a store and you'll like this store because it's a toy store.
You walk in and you see many many toys and many many books.
You walk towards the books and you see all the colors and shapes and sizes of the books and there's one book that pops out at you.
It jumps out of the shelf and you pick it up and you look at the cover and it reads the game of life.
You open it up and you see that this book is filled with all sorts of interesting games to help teach kids about life.
You flip through the pages and choose a game that looks fun.
It's a discovery game and we get to be investigators.
We get to be detectives working together to discover your true voice.
We begin to read the instructions aloud and they say in your life you have two voices inside of you.
One voice is called your true voice.
That's the voice that encourages you to make an effort to take care of others.
Your true voice is the voice that always tells you that you can do it.
Now the other voice that's inside of you is called your opponent's voice.
That voice,
That voice of your opponent,
Is the voice that puts you down,
That tells you that you can't do it,
That makes you feel like you don't care about things even though they're really important.
In this game you win once you discover and decide to listen to your true voice.
Remember your true voice,
That's the voice that encourages you to make an effort,
That wants you to take care of others.
It's the voice that always tells you that you can do it and the other voice,
That's the voice that puts you down,
That tells you that you can't do it,
That tells you that you don't care even if you really do care.
So let's start the game.
Let's become investigators.
Let's discover and listen to those two voices inside of you.
First of all you'll need to turn the next page in the book and as you turn it there you see a blank page and some crayons and lots of room for you to draw a picture and you pick up a crayon and you begin to draw a picture of a challenging situation that happened to you.
Now remember since your eyes are closed this picture that you're drawing well it's only in your imagination.
So continue drawing,
Continue imagining and see this challenging situation that happened to you and as you imagine envision the situation and as you're drawing your picture begin to remember and hear and feel what your two voices were telling you during that challenging time.
What did your opponent's voice try to tell you?
Listen.
How did it make you feel?
Remember.
And what was your true voice telling you during this challenging situation?
How would you have felt if your true voice got louder and you had the power inside to listen to your true voice?
Listen.
Feel.
Feel.
Feel what it's like to listen and recognize your true voice.
Now remember in this game you're a detective and you want to win the game and when you recognize and then you choose to listen to your true voice then you have all the power then you feel warm inside then you know you know then you know you know that you've heard your true voice you know what it sounds like you know what it feels like you know how to listen to your true voice and once you've heard and discovered and felt your true voice there's a special secret way to activate its power inside of you so when you're ready pretends that there is a button and it's right there over your heart and place your hands over your heart gently press that button as you activate your true voice inside now listen listen to your true voice that's your true voice that means you've won the game and you can let yourself listen to your true voice over and over and over again and you can always come back and play this game together with me I loved playing with you and I'd love discovering your true voice with you
