Board Games

Board games with families can be a positive and joyful time. As a helper, I am very fortunate to meet all different kinds of families all over the United States and across the seas. Over the years, I have thoroughly enjoyed playing all types of different board games in the kitchen area with each family. I can remember years ago when I first started this mental health company the interesting games we have played. Playing board games can be a super positive approach in integrating family dynamics. For instance, I think developing healthy interpersonal relationships with each person in the family, of the person I am working with can be a positive. Holidays can be difficult for some, and family time is a great way of keeping the positive energy and Xmas spirit flowing into the upcoming year. This particular family is a special family. There is joy, support, and positive energy flowing from one person to the next person in their family. I honestly thought I was privy to most board games and understood the premise of each. For those who know me, I am very competitive in almost everything I do, ok, everything I do! Sometimes I meet a client who is also very competitive, and their family is very competitive! Bonus right? This client is not a addict. She is learning how to work our model while getting life skills and how to stay in the moment. There is only one problem, I can't remember the game we just played! The game was filled with laughter, jokes, and above else, healthy family time. The funny thing about this story, (ok to share) the family did remind me I would forget the name of game! Stay in your health, stay in the moment. Self-Balance-Higher Power-Fun
