What challenge inspired this recipe?

This methodology was created during a camp leader training; hence you will find some workcamp or camp leader word in it. It aims to support group leaders, in this case coordinators. The concept of wellbeing is based on Maslow’s pyramid of needs, and how at some points during a stressful period we can forget to check our own needs and burn out quicker. It is a session plan that can be done in an office during a meeting of ESC staff meeting, national agency training, mentor training.
