For this week, I would like to ask you to reflect on your values through which your life revolves by doing the following activities. Please use your notebook to write down the answers.
When you were at your best, which values were responsible for it to happen?
If you could only take one thing with you on a trip, what would it be? How does this one thing reflect your values?
Explore 5 different areas of your life and identify a topic (subject) of the value and process value (quality of an experience or how this value is processed in terms of quality or worth it has to you). You can find two examples in the HOW section.
Talk to your friends, family members, and work colleagues – ask them about what they think your values are. Reflect on what they say. What did you get out of the conversations with them?
How can you utilize your values in your practice as a TMT Shinrin Yoku Guide?
Write a summary essay of activities I-IV. Send it by email to TMT one day before Week 8.
