Using GIVE During Group
Remember: you use GIVE to build healthy relationships with others. GIVE stands for:
G – be Gentle: be kind and nice to others
I – act Interested: show that you want to know more about others
V – Validate: show others that you understand them
E – Easy manner: have a sense of humor and don’t take things too seriously
During group, you are going to keep track of how often you use GIVE.
Each time you use one of the GIVE skills, put a tally mark in that column. Catch others using GIVE too, and remind them to put tally marks in their columns. Try to use each skill at least once!
G- be Gentle I- act Interested V- Validate E- Easy manner
