Start with one of these structures in the Help category
The Help category offers ways to support yourself when you’re facing a real challenge. These structures create distance, perspective, and self-dialogue instead of getting stuck in your own head.
Helping yourself is not about having all the answers.
It’s about asking better questions and accessing your own inner resources.
Use Help when you’re stuck, doubting, or need a fresh way to look at a dilemma.
How to use (and adapt) these structures
Liberating Structures are originally created to work with groups and the different voices that live inside groups. But it turned out that they also work great to guide the conversation with the different voices that live inside you. The magic trick: use templates to follow the questions and always write down your answers. Just ask yourself the right questions, learn to listen and include different views and search for patterns.
Social Network Webbing
Create a tangible map of your social capital, discover unexpected allies and resources, and leave with concrete actions to strengthen relationships that matter most. It transforms abstract networking into a strategic, visual, and actionable process.
Heard, Seen, Respected (HSR)
Access your own deeper thoughts while simultaneously learning what truly matters to you. By removing the pressure to respond or fix, HSR reveals hidden concerns, hopes, and wisdom that normally stay buried.
Helping Heuristics
Practice self talk from multiple different perspectives without being overwhelmed. Write down a challenge and reflect on it using 4 different patterns.
