How Does LEGO® Serious Play® Support Recovery? 

Building a Foundation for Recovery: LEGO® bricks and elements are not just toys; they are tools for transformation. Through the act of building and storytelling, individuals in recovery can express their thoughts, emotions, and experiences in a tangible and non-threatening way. It's a unique bridge to self-discovery.

Creating New Narratives: In the world of LEGO® Serious Play®, participants construct new narratives for themselves. They build metaphorical representations of their past, present, and future. By doing so they gain insight into their journey, identifying strengths, triggers, and strategies for success.

Fostering Connection: LEGO® Serious Play® is a shared experience. In group settings, individuals in recovery not only express their stories but also listen to others' narratives. This fosters empathy, understanding, and a sense of community that is invaluable on the path to sobriety.

Unlocking Creativity: Sobriety often requires out-of-the-box thinking and the development of new coping mechanisms. LEGO® Serious Play® encourages creative thinking and problem-solving skills that are essential in overcoming challenges.

Empowering Progress: Each metaphorical LEGO® creation is a tangible symbol of progress. As participants see their structures evolve and adapt, they gain confidence in their ability to shape their own recovery journey.

A Safe Space for Expression: LEGO® Serious Play® offers a non-judgmental, non-verbal means of expression. This can be particularly important for those who find it difficult to articulate their thoughts and feelings verbally.

 Through our 'RISE UP' program, we've witnessed the remarkable impact of the LEGO® Serious Play® method on the journey to sobriety. It is a unique and engaging approach that helps individuals not only overcome addiction but also rediscover their inner strengths, build new narratives, and embrace a brighter, sober future.
