Session # 1 Concepts and Sources of Meaning: Experiential Exercises Meaningful Moments List one or two experiences or moments when life has felt particularly meaningful to you- whether it sounds powerful or mundane. For example, it could be something that helped you through a difficult day,or a time when you felt most alive.

Session # 2 Cancer and Meaning: Experiential Exercises Write down 4 answers to the question, “Who am I?” These can be positive or negative, and include personality characteristics, body image, beliefs, things you do, people you know, etc….For example,answers might start with, “I am someone who___,” or “I am a __.” How has cancer affected your answers?

Session # 5 Attitudinal Sources of Meaning: Encountering Life’s Limitations Are you still able to find meaning in your daily life despite the finiteness of life? Since your diagnosis, have you felt a sense of a loss of meaning in life? That life is not worth living? What are your thoughts about what is a “good” or “meaningful” death. How would you like to be remembered?

Session # 6 Creative Sources of Meaning: Experiential Exercise Actively Engaging with Life Through Creativity & Responsibility Who are you responsible to and for? What is your unfinished business? What tasks have you always wanted to do, but have yet to undertake?
