About this book

A collection of interactive activities designed to encourage creative expression, flexible thinking, and meaningful conversations. Each activity page comes with clear instructions, so participants can stretch their thinking and share enriching dialogue.

The activities are organized into five sections — Attention, Play, Imagination, Mental Flexibility, and Character Development. Sections overlap, so pages can be completed in any order.

The workbook grew out of Neurons Away group sessions that were studied in a three-month quality-improvement project on an acute inpatient psychiatric unit at SUNY Upstate Medical University. Read what that project did and did not show.
