Hi people,
I´ve played this game just once, a couple of years ago, and it was an amazing experience.
The Transformation Game is a board game designed by two people from the scotish Findhorn Foundation. This is a perfectly fine example of a healthy "edutainment" (education + entertainment), mind-stretching-conciousness-growing activity you may have with your friends and family.
Before starting the game you´ll set a goal, a Personal Playing Focus that will be any question or issue about your life that needs clarifying. For the next hours, this "insight machine" will lead you to the boundaries of your thoughts and beyound. The more you relax, accept and embrace the experience, stronger the transformation potencial will be.
Check the overview below:
THE TRANSFORMATION GAME - Originated by Joy Drake and Kathy Tyler while living at the Findhorn Foundation, The Transformation Game is a joyful way to discover more about yourself and others. Just as life is filled with insights, setbacks, pain and miracles, so is The Transformation Game. It mirrors players' lives with amazing accuracy: highlighting strengths, identifying blind spots and bringing fresh perspectives to current challenges. Self discovery and growth become exciting and fun with this extraordinary tool of clarification and communication.
Because The Transformation Game responds directly to the heart of any issue, you will want to experience it over and over again to clarify important personal issues and gain immediate direction on your next steps. You will find new ways to enhance your relationships and recognise your personal contribution and abilities. Discover a stress-free balance of work and play, deepen your understanding of yourself and others and receive inspiration and practical support. Whether you want to solve a problem, look at a relationship, or change some unproductive behaviour, this is the game for you.
Players begin by choosing a question or issue which becomes their Personal Playing Focus. Each player moves a personality marker along a Life Path on the game board, entering at the Physical Level and eventually progressing through the Emotional, Mental and Spiritual Levels. Playing The Transformation Game enables you to interact with your family and friends in stimulating, supportive and caring ways.
A complete pack of 52 Life Angel cards is included in every game and can be played by itself to encourage individual creativity and to enhance your ability to interact successfully in relationships. Choose an Angel at the start of a new venture or on other special occasions. Select a card to support you with a particular task or to overcome an obstacle or simply to give you a direction to focus on for a certain period of time. Let an Angel card join you as a companion, and your life will be richer and more meaningful.
