Goal:

1) Observation

2) Memorization

Steps

Several objects are placed in front of all players

  1. Players have one minute to observe the objects and memorize them all.
  2. Then the objects are hidden, and the team has to name them all in 3 or 4 minutes depending on the number of objects!
  3. The team with the most memorized items will be declared the winner.

After taking a minute to observe the objects, the facilitator will discreetly remove one. Your task is to quickly guess which object has disappeared.

Put a few items in a bag for the player to see.

Stealing an object.

When touched, find the missing object.

This version is more challenging. You don't want to put too many items in the bag.

CONCRETELY:

  • Is your brain used to memorizing a lot of small pieces of information in less than 30 seconds, or is it specifically through these kinds of games that you can train it to do so?
  • Have I organized a way to remember everything? small/big things, things related to others, categories, position in space, initials of objects, ...

TO GO FURTHER:

  • Do you have to remember everything that happens around you to be able to live well in the society where you live?

Our brain is a sorting/filtering machine rather than a remembering machine. Thus, it receives billions of pieces of information every second (sounds, smells, visual information, etc.) and filters them to know which ones to "remember" (a conversation, my first name, a code, an unusual element, a car that arrives in my mirror, etc.) and which ones to forget (background noise, the license plate of said car, a bird passing in the sky, etc.). ambient odor, etc.).

But it also retains "unusual" information: a foreign language, a "different" gesture, a movement that is too fast, a smell of gas, etc. because it is programmed to protect us from danger. Intuitively, what is "different" or "surprising" will spontaneously be interpreted by my brain as "dangerous" or at least "suspicious"... even if then, fortunately, we learned to interpret these amazing gestures or words.

If we translate that into the world of relationships, if someone acts in an unusual way, my brain will notice it (maybe even without me noticing) and light up a warning.

It is up to us, then, to improve interpersonal relationships: to accustom our brain to differences, so as not to misinterpret the languages of other cultures, and not to react "reflexively" (i.e., without reflection) and to observe the codes of our interlocutor to be able to imitate them and better understand them

This game requires a full mobilization of our senses – sight and touch. It's great to take a moment to reacquaint ourselves with our senses and become more mindful of our actions, especially those that are repetitive or part of our daily routine.

 This can happen when we are preoccupied with other things and forget to double-check. Have you ever left your house and wondered if you remembered to take your pen? It's understandable to feel unsure if you have taken it or not in this situation.

Being present and focusing on a simple act can combine our senses of touch, sight, and sometimes even hearing or smell? It's amazing how this awareness can lead to a virtuous circle of development, combining concentration and intelligence.

Awareness of my senses, my body, and my actions

  1. My concentration
  2. My Ability to Cope with Difficulty
  3. My presence to others, my attention to their needs
  4. Resulting in higher self-esteem!!

Good advice: Don't forget to live in the moment to the fullest!
