The main goal of this method is to use the Mat to learn about the clips model and to put it at the service of a group project. The Mat serves as a symbolic representation of the project to be worked on. Placed on the
ground, it takes strength and identity.
This representation encourages play and participation through other symbolic elements like stones, seeds, branches, leaves, etc. that are already in the place, creating a space of deep connection of the participants with their common project and with the facilitators.
Here we present a way to use it, and there can be many others; the way that each CLIPS facilitator or group finds suitable is welcome.
