This is a confidential and safe space. Do not share information about group members with others. It is okay not to share and listen if that’s what you need. - Self-reflection & Understanding
Try to use “I” statements. When responding to a group member, try to reflect on what you heard that person say in your response. - Space
Take space when you have something to share. Leave space for others to have an opportunity to share. - Judgment-free Zone
It’s okay to have negative feelings and big feelings. Our feelings can be messy and don’t need to be perfect.
