Card game about communication
Connecting with someone isn't just a matter of physical proximity; it depends on sharing the right parts of the other person's imagination and deeper self. The best conversations can make people on the other side of the world feel closer than ever before.
The Digital Connections card set from the School of Life contains exercises, questions and prompts to guide people towards the best kinds of interactions. The tone is a mix of humorous, kind, vulnerable and touching. These cards can help us communicate online on the authentic and emotional level we crave and deserve.
Here are some example cards:
“Don't feel a constant pressure to talk. Take 80 seconds (you can time it on a phone) to be together in silence. It can feel awkward at first, then unexpectedly close and warm. You can look at each other or gaze around, as though being just yourselves is now complete enough.”
“On a sheet of paper, write down the following: 1) something you regret 2) Something you want to forgive 3) Something you long to share 4) An area you want to improve in. Show each other your pieces of paper and discuss.”
“Draw how you're currently feeling in an abstract way – it might be a jagged squiggle, some carefully hatched squares, or a thoughtful zebra. “Hold it up to your conversation partner and discuss.”
