The pioneer starts by presenting his/her self-board to open up, by doing this they set the standard for the group. It is important that the pioneer does this in an open, reflected and vulnerable manner. If it is done correctly it will increase the feeling of safety right of the bat and the participants will follow their lead.\ \ The intention of the task is to become aware of your own self-concept, by this we mean how you view yourself and can include past, present, and future selves. We do not do this to find an "authentic self" or an "ideal" self, but to become aware of the narratives/stories we tell others and ourselves. We also want to start a process of working consciously with the beliefs, narratives and assumptions we hold about the world, other people and especially ourselves. ### How: | | | | ----- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **1** |

(10min)
First, the host presents their self-board to show how it is done.

| | **2** |

(30min)
The participants create their own self-board:

The task is to illustrate who you are through pictures (3-10 pictures). Your focus can be divided into three areas, your past self, your present self, and your future self. The pictures could represent something that is valuable to know about you or your story. You can choose for yourself how you would like to present the pictures.

The pictures could be your own drawings, illustrations you find online, or images from your childhood.

(80min)
Self-boards will then be presented one by one. Each participant presents their pictures and reflects openly about the meaning of each photo/their illustrations.

Make sure that you have some time for questions and feedback.
