The Big Book of Stress Relief Games: Quick, Fun Activities for Feeling Better [Paperback] Review

The Big Book of Stress Relief Games: Quick, Fun Activities for Feeling Better [Paperback]Perhaps I was looking for the wrong thing.I expected a book on how to relieve stress with quick little games to do at the beginning of a business meeting.Instead, the 'games' in this book sound more like therapy sessions.Most are meditation and message exercises.
One example:The Glittering Roof, where you have everyone close their eyes and you, the facilitator, read a 2.5 page verbal 'fantasy' in a calm and soothing voice to the group.At the end, everyone discusses how they felt.There are many exercises like this in the book.
Another example (my favorite): The Beastly Boss.Again you start the group off with breathing and imagery exercises.Then you pair everyone off.One person assumes the role of Beastly Boss. The other the role of Exemplary Employee.The Beastly Boss then 'acts insensitively' while the Exemplary Employee employs more breathing and imagery techniques to remain cool.Then they switch.Puh-leez!Can anyone think of a quicker way to be sent to a remote location than to try this on your co-workers?
This is not for corporate profesionals...
