Tree of Life

Tree of Life training involves exploring and externalising personal issues and challenges by using the metaphor of a tree. Students learn to visualise their life experiences, strengths, and aspirations as different parts of a tree. The training may include:

• storytelling
• discussions
• creative activities

This helps individuals to reframe their narratives, emphasising resilience, connections, and personal growth. 

By metaphorically representing one's life as a tree, this training encourages a positive and empowering perspective. It allows individuals to build a narrative that reflects their strengths and potential for positive change.
