What are the benefits of group work.
-
Engaging in group work sparks the release of dopamine as we extend help to others or feel validated ourselves. In this shared experience, we are encouraged to address emotional discomfort, fostering an environment where receiving support and sharing feelings openly are embraced.
-
Engaging in discussions with fellow members, both within workshops and during breaks, gives members an opportunity to refine their communication abilities and gain insights from others' experiences.

Seeing transformation in others can motivate us to consider changes within ourselves. Group work, cultivates an atmosphere where members share hopeful narratives, not solely challenges. The group setting stimulates creative problem-solving and finding solutions through collaborative brainstorming and diverse perspectives.

Quiet observation provides members an opportunity to observe without actively participating. This can provide valuable insight into one’s experience of emotions, promoting self-awareness and understanding of others. Additionally, quiet observation offers a sense of safety for those who may feel hesitant or overwhelmed by active participation, allowing them to gradually acclimate to the group process at their own pace.
