Emotion recall

We started by getting everyone to lie on the floor imagining being on a beach in the heat of the sun whilst fighting the need to get up to go home. We used this feeling to replicate and understand the feeling of inmates at auschwitz on a daily basis of having to work but fighting their need for rest.

We then moved onto focusing on emotions. Mandi and i asked the group to think of the happiest moment and the senses and feelings associates with it. We then asked them to take this memory and the people in it and imagine them lost. This was to give them an idea of how inmates felt when they were in a foreign environment after losing everything.
The group focused well and allowed themselves to go to another place with their emotions.
