Word reflection: Courage
This gentle word activity combines a simple visual puzzle with a reflective wellbeing prompt. It can be used individually, in coaching, therapy, group discussion or as an accessible conversation starter.
The word
COURAGE
Reflection prompt
Where are you already showing courage?
A supportive perspective
Courage is not the absence of fear. It may be speaking honestly, asking for help or trying again carefully.
Coaching tips
· Allow the person to respond with the first association that feels meaningful.
· There is no need to guess the word quickly or correctly.
· Ask what the word means in the person’s current life.
· Explore one small action connected with the word.
· Avoid turning the reflection into pressure, advice or forced positivity.
Important note
This is an educational and reflective activity. It is not a psychological assessment or diagnostic test. People experiencing significant distress should be encouraged to access appropriate professional or urgent support.
Until next time, give yourself space to breathe.
With love, Maggie
