Tree of Strength Activity (Tracey Bratley)

Tree of Strength Instructions

Use a large sheet of paper. Lay your hand on the paper, fingers spread, with part of your arm on the paper as well. Trace your arm and hand, leaving the tips of the fingers open. This will become the base of your tree – your arm is the trunk of the tree and the fingers are the beginning of branches.

At the end of the open finger tips, extend the drawing to create more branches. At the end of the branches, draw several large leaves, making them large enough that you can write in each one.

On each leaf write one thing that helps you get through a difficult time – this can include personal strengths, coping strategies, enjoyable activities, and supportive people.

Colour, paint, or decorate your tree as you wish.
