FEEDBACK

“I found the activity to be thoughtful, and to serve as a session that permitted our team to unplug from our routine and into a moment of new energy, generating new thoughts and feelings that we could all reflect on when we find ourselves intense at work.”

“I felt like the act of bringing intentionality to perception...creating space for that...was an effective way to connect with others and ideate. It puts people in a different and generative frame of mind when they are forced to concentrate on their senses and the lens through which they perceive stimulus.”
