“Profe… ¿te puedo contar algo?”
(
La historia real de una niña, un juego y una verdad que dolía.)

El juego para el alma_itha

Una profesora me escribió hace poco.
Estaba usando "El juego para el alma de nuestros niños" con su curso.
Todo iba normal, hasta que una niña se abrió y le contó algo fuerte:
otra profesora la estaba agrediendo verbalmente. Y que eso la hacía sentir mal.

Nada de juego inocente.
Nada de “qué lindo lo que salió”.
Fue una bomba emocional.

La profe que me escribió quedó afectada.
Me dijo que no sabía qué hacer. Que esto la tenía mal, de verdad.

Y claro… ¿Quién te enseña a manejar algo así?
¿Cómo se responde cuando un niño rompe el silencio… y tú no estás preparada?

Bueno aquí te va mi Prisma y lo que le aconsejé: La primera pregunta que te tienes que hacer a ti misma con "El Juego de la Transformación Interior" es ¿Porqué me afectó tanto? Entiendo, que uno sienta preocupación, quiera ayudar, y le pasen cosas dentro, pero si ya te desarma emocionalmente es donde ya está tocando alguna herida de tu pasado... y esto hay que limpiarlo para realmente ser ese adulto completo que puede sostener con calma. Sin intentar salvar, solo poner orden. Por supuesto que lo primero es recibir a la niña, escucharla y contenerla. Lo siguiente es informar esto a quién corresponda, por ejemplo directora, pero el paso más importante y el que desde mi prisma mueve espacios completos es revisarlo en ti misma... ¿Porqué?

2. Mental Wellness

Mental wellness is about cultivating a positive and resilient mindset. It involves managing stress, challenging negative thoughts, and embracing lifelong learning. Practices like mindfulness, meditation, and journaling can help maintain mental clarity. Staying curious, learning new skills, and seeking professional help when needed are crucial for mental health. Remember, mental wellness is not the absence of stress but the ability to cope with life’s challenges effectively.

3. Emotional Wellness

Emotional wellness encourages you to understand and express your feelings in a healthy way. Building emotional intelligence helps you navigate relationships and handle life’s ups and downs. Practice self-compassion and gratitude to foster a positive outlook. Regularly check in with yourself to process emotions and let go of negativity. Healthy emotional expression strengthens connections with others and helps you stay in tune with your inner self.

4. Social Wellness

Humans are social beings, and nurturing relationships is vital for overall health. Social wellness focuses on building strong, meaningful connections with family, friends, and your community. Join groups or engage in activities that align with your interests to expand your network. Setting healthy boundaries and communicating effectively also contribute to positive relationships. A supportive social circle can improve your emotional well-being and reduce feelings of isolation.

5. Spiritual Wellness

Spiritual wellness connects you with a sense of purpose and meaning in life. This doesn’t necessarily mean adhering to a specific religion—it’s about aligning with values and practices that resonate with you. Meditation, prayer, spending time in nature, or volunteering can help deepen your spiritual connection. Finding inner peace and understanding your place in the world cultivates a sense of fulfillment and resilience.

6. Environmental Wellness

Environmental wellness involves creating a harmonious relationship with your surroundings. This includes your home, workplace, and the natural environment. A clean and organized space can boost your mood and productivity. Additionally, adopting eco-friendly habits like recycling, conserving energy, and supporting sustainable practices contributes to a healthier planet. By caring for the environment, you also enhance your own well-being.

7. Occupational Wellness

Occupational wellness emphasizes finding satisfaction and purpose in your professional life. It’s about aligning your career with your values and skills while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Seek opportunities for growth and set boundaries to prevent burnout. Whether it’s through your job or hobbies, contributing to something meaningful boosts your sense of achievement and happiness.
