How It Works
Introduction
Ask participants: “If your current mood were a weather condition, what would it be?”
Execution
“Go around and let each person describe their inner weather: sunny, stormy, foggy, mixed clouds, etc. Invite short elaboration if time allows: “Partly cloudy with bursts of sun – I’m still waking up but excited.””
Debrief/Reflection
Optionally invite a few reflections: “What stood out?” or “What does this tell us about where we are as a group?”
Tips & Variations
- Works well with visual aids like weather cards or emojis.
- In larger groups, split into breakout rooms or pairs.
- For remote sessions, use a Miro board or poll tool for everyone to select their weather.
