Description

Remember the fun you had playing Tetris?   Remember the rush you felt as you were scrambling to place the piece?   Remember the pleasure of each disappearing row? If you are not familiar with that computer game - don't worry!    We will bring you up to speed very quickly in the workshop!
​
In our version of Tetris called Tetrix couples face real life situations that can either be escalated (level up) to a full blown argument, or de-escalated (level down).   Make the right decision and your next move will be easier.   But if you make the wrong decision, well, as R Nir says "your marriage is like a Tetris game.   A pile up of bad decisions."

Goal

Through playing Tetrix couples learn how to identify the ingredients of run-away arguments and how to have a better handle in controlling them.    Specifically, couples get hands on practice on how to relate situations more softly, how to de-escalate arguments, and how to accept de-escalation attempts.

Inspiration

Many people have asked us what inspires us to adapt/invent these games.   The Jewish teachings both written and verbal are indisputably the primary and overriding source.   Sometimes a book written by a contemporary therapist helps refine these ideas.
Tetrix draws a lot of its technique from John Gottman's "The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work" and content from Rabbi Simcha Cohen "The Jewish Home".
