NEW YORK, NY, January 15, 2011 (Press-News.org) The Keep it Real RX board game, created by psychotherapist and Trance4mation Games, L.L.C. CEO Leslie Robinson, is a groundbreaking, exciting and powerful field-tested communication tool that cuts across barriers and embraces people's humanity. This game is an ideal way to help participants to acquire and/or enhance communication, listening, social, and life skills, while promoting positive interaction with family and peers.
"A safe space...at last...to finally discover things about yourself you always wanted to know, to say things you have always wanted to say, and to be who you really are! Keep It Real is a game where we discover, uncover, reveal and share. . . Thank you for this game."—MarySarah Agliotta, Therapist, Yoga Instructor
The Keep it Real RX board game creates an environment that engenders communication, tolerance, and helps to cultivate a less judgmental viewpoint in its participants. The game was developed to give players a safe and enjoyable place to interact and engage with one another in non-confrontational, deep, substantial and meaningful ways. The game allows each player to join in at their own pace and in their own time. Through sharing their authentic selves and experiences with one another, players feel more connected and less isolated. And all this is accomplished by providing a setting that is fun and entertaining!
"This game gives you knowledge. Some people don't even know it is in them, the game brings it out. I could play this game for ten hours and never get bored."—David DeLaurentis, 21 year old
The Keep it Real RX board game asks evocative, imaginative, up to date, and stimulating questions which engage people emotionally and cognitively at a level that lowers their defenses and makes them open to hearing one another's viewpoints and feelings. The game asks real questions you may have always wanted to ask but never dared to, such as: Do you believe in "an eye for an eye" or "turning the other cheek," and why?; What do you think keeps love alive?; What does freedom mean to you?; What is something you would like a second chance at? Think of a race different from your own—how would your life be different if you had been born into that race?; Would you rather be a famous rock star or a great politician, and why?; and many other fun and thought provoking questions.
"The Keep it Real game will challenge students to think beyond their limited experience, to dream, to joke, to laugh, to create a culture of transparency and vulnerability. This is by far the greatest strength of this game, namely transparency, for when this is accomplished, youth can be who they are; not who they think they should be. They can Keep it Real!"—Moses Sanchez, Youth Minister, Student Venture NYC
Keep it Real RX board game creator Leslie Robinson has worked as a Program Director for at-risk youth in the South Bronx, has created and implemented long-term intensive arts and after-school programs in inner city schools for at-risk and hard to reach youth, and pioneered a poetry project at Rikers Island Correctional Facilities for Men and Women. Leslie graduated Summa Cum Laude with a Masters Degree at City College NY and is currently a psychotherapist with a private practice in New York City.
