  10. Overall data

  11. Activities of the Secondary school In the secondary school were carried out the following projects: “…..Learn to listen…to be open to creativity”. 2. The ABC of the emotions! 3. The relax as a teaching method. Each project has provided these phases: Beginning :Distibution of the test to reflect on their own emotions, on the mood on the conceptualization of the self.. The end: After a day relaxation exercises and completion of a test.

  12. “…..Learn to listen…to be open to creativity”. Objectives : Preparing for the theatrical activity. Students: mixed group of students from I-II-III class (31 students). Synthesis: The students lie down in a supine position with eyes closed, and listen to their body "that speaks and breathes" with the help of the music that sensitizes them towards an "inner space.“ 2. Lie down comfortably with your eyes closed. They think to parts of their own body, they are aware. They perceive the left side of the body, then the right side and then from time to time other parts: hands, arms, shoulders, neck, back, face, chest, belly, butt, thighs , legs, feet. They perceive their body in its whole complex deeply. You slowly stretch, breathe deeply and open their eyes. 3. Once they stand up, they do the raft exercise to learn how to manage their own body in the space and in relation to other people. 4. After that, there is a brief but intense sharing of this experience where teachers ask questions linked to this experience.

  13. The ABC of the emotions! Objectives : The correct management of their own emotions . Students : I A class ( 22 students) Synthesis : The Rational Emotive Education explains the process that leads to emotional reactions through the ABC model of emotion : - The point A refers to any event or situation; - The point B contains all of the thoughts about what is happening at point A; - The point C is the emotional reaction and the resulting behavior. According to this model it isn’t A (the event) to cause C (emotion), but it is the element B (thoughts) that determine the type of emotional reaction and behavior. The Rational Emotive Education considers "harmful" the thoughts that lead us overly to have negative emotional reactions in relation to a particular situation.

  14. Title: The ABC of the emotions! • The characteristics of these harmful thoughts are essentially these : • – theydon’tdescribe the facts realistically but with a distortion;– thoughts are exaggerated and absolutist;– theydo not help to achieve their goals;– theylead to emotional reactions overly intense and prolonged. • The Thoughts useful instead give a more realistic and often positive vision of reality, which resizes the emotional impact of certain events and facilitates the achievement of their own purposes.The main harmful thoughts considered by Rational Education are these : • Absolute claims; • Catastrophicthought • Intolerance • Global devaluation of the self or the others • Indispensability, absoluteneeds. • Generalize

  15. Title: The ABC of the emotions! Some examples of useful questions to "attack" the own irrational and counterproductive thoughts are: – What is true in what I think, what facts could I have ignored? –  Is there any exaggeration in my way of thinking? –  Does this way of thinking help me feeling better? _ Are these thoughts useful for me to be able to get what I want? –  -What is the worst thing that could happen in this situation? - How much is presumable that this would happen? If this would happen, would it be terrible or unbearable?

  16. The relax as a teaching method Objectives: Improving the quality of listening, encouraging greater participation and predispose to an increasing of receptivity.
