Implementation

a) Welcome participants to the activity.

b) Have the participants form a small circle, with their shoulders touching.

c) Ask participants to turn to the left and reach their hands out to touch their neighbor’s shoulders.

d) Start massaging the shoulders. It’s important to ask participants how/what they are feeling after playing this game and to emphasize the importance of taking care of our bodies.

 

Tips and tricks for the facilitator :

It’s a game that involves touch, so it’s important to first make sure that everyone is aware of this and comfortable. If the facilitator is female and the participants are male, then it’s better not to participate and to just supervise the game.
