Exercise “My mood”

Instructions for the exercise “My mood”: draw your mood – the way it is right now. Maybe it will be like the weather, or like a landscape, or it will be an abstract drawing. Draw the image to the end – so that it fully reflects your state.

Describe your mood in words – what is it like? Children can be asked leading questions: sad or funny? What is it from? Is it an expectation of something or about past events? What mood would you like?

Now modify this drawing to represent the mood you want for yourself. It is this drawing that needs to be changed, no need to draw a new one. You can add new details or draw it completely, rotate the sheet and see a different picture from a new angle. You can cut and re-glue the parts in a different order, change your mood in any way! The main thing is that in the end you get exactly the mood that you would like to keep for a long time (for example, calm or joyful, tender, or in love …)
