Your Journey Begins
Your Emotions Have a Story.
It’s Time to Tell It.
For too long, you’ve carried your struggles in silence. Depression told you no one would understand. Anxiety convinced you that opening up was weakness.
But what if the path to healing was simpler than you thought?
What if it started with a single question?
The 4 Emotional Paths
Each path addresses a core aspect of mental health and social skills development. Navigate all four to complete your emotional garden.
Self-Knowledge
20 Questions · Understand Your Inner World
Depression clouds self-awareness. These questions help you recognize emotional patterns, identify triggers, and understand what makes you you. Face difficult truths about yourself and grow stronger through self-reflection.
Social Connection
20 Questions · Build Meaningful Relationships
Anxiety makes connection scary. These questions create safe vulnerability, teaching social skills through authentic conversation instead of small talk. Overcome your fear of judgment and discover genuine connection.
Emotional Expression
20 Questions · Share Feelings in a Safe Space
“I’m fine” becomes a prison. These questions give you permission to express what you’ve held inside, building emotional literacy and authentic communication. Break through the walls you’ve built and let yourself be heard.
Resilience
20 Questions · Develop Strength Through Challenges
Depression whispers “you’re not strong enough.” These questions help you discover resilience you’ve already shown and build strategies for future challenges. Face your fears and prove to yourself that you are stronger than you think.

How do I print the game?
Print on cardstock (200-300 GSM) for best results. The board works on A4/Letter or A3/Tabloid paper. Most home printers work great, or you can use a local print shop for professional quality.
I have depression. Will this actually help?
This game was designed specifically for depression support. It reduces isolation through connection, builds emotional vocabulary, creates safe space for vulnerability, and teaches coping strategies naturally.
It’s not a replacement for professional help, but a powerful supplement that makes therapy concepts accessible and engaging.
How many players?
2-6 players recommended. Also works for solo journaling. Ideal group size is 3-4 for deeper conversations.
How long does a game take?
- Easy mode (8 flowers): 30-75 minutes
- Normal mode (12 flowers): 45-120 minutes
- Deep mode (16 flowers): 60-150 minutes
Time varies based on how deeply players engage with questions.
Can therapists use this professionally?
Absolutely! Many therapists use it as a conversation starter in one-on-one sessions, group therapy structured activity, assessment tool for emotional development, and homework between sessions. The game format reduces client resistance compared to traditional worksheets.
What if questions are too difficult?
You can ALWAYS pass. No judgment. The game includes Blank Page bonus stations (skip without penalty), gentle passing penalty (move back 2 squares), group validation of sincerity not content, and boundary-respecting culture built into rules.
Can I play multiple times?
Yes! With 80 unique questions and 40 board squares, you can play multiple sessions without repeating questions. Your answers will evolve as you grow emotionally.
Your Garden Awaits
You’ve read this far because something in you knows: isolation isn’t working. Depression told you to stay silent. Anxiety convinced you connection was dangerous.
But here’s the truth: healing happens through conversation.
This game gives you permission to have those conversations.
80 questions. 4 paths. One powerful truth: you don’t have to do this alone.
