Sep 2025

It's tough these days, all of us are juggling deadlines, rushing from meeting to meeting, and scrolling through endless notifications. At MindSlí Studio in Galway, team building begins by stepping away from all the noise and engaging in a slef-discovery journey via 10 interactive stations, rooted in philosophy & psychology. At one station you might map your current stress levels, another where you imagine your “ideal day,” or one that helps you spot hidden sources of your anxiety. It’s private, personal, and a refreshing pause in the middle of the workweek.

Then, between stations, the team comes together for light conversation starters, supported by a gentle prompt cards: sharing a childhood hobby or talking about what makes them feel most energize. It’s a team-building experience that feels calm, curious, low pressure and effortlessly bonding — a chance to discover new sides of each other in a non-intrusive way.

10 Stations, Two Ways to Explore

At MindSlí, the team journey unfolds across 10 creative stations, each offering a short, playful exercise rooted in psychology and philosophy. Everyone reflects individually, writing down their own insights, and can choose to share later if they wish.

You can experience MindSlí in two different ways:

• Mixed Theme Starter Set – a mix of different themes across the 10 stations: joy, happiness, work, a look beneath anxiety. This gives teams a broad taste of the different angles of reflection.
  
  

• Focused Themes – for a deeper dive into a single area, such as:
  
  

  • Purpose & Meaning – exploring motivation and direction.
    
    

  • Work & Identity – reflecting on values, strengths, and challenges at work.
    
    

  • Fun & Creativity – sparking playful thinking and imagination.

  • Anxiety the Search for Calm
    
    

This flexibility means every group can find the approach that fits them best.

Why Teams Love It

Teams often describe the experience as lighthearted yet surprisingly powerful. The mix of solo reflection and gentle group prompts means everyone feels comfortable — there’s no pressure to perform, yet there are plenty of opportunities to connect.

What makes it especially rewarding is that people often share things they don’t usually say in everyday office life. We sometimes assume our colleagues know what motivates us, what stresses us, or what small joys keep us going — but saying it out loud can feel both surprising and deeply connecting.

And yes — there’s tea, coffee, and philosophical chocolate to round it all off, included with the experience

Right in the Heart of Galway

MindSlí is located in Corbett Court Shopping Centre, making it easy to include in a few-hours team outing. Pair it with lunch in the Latin Quarter, a walk down Shop Street, or a relaxed team debrief afterwards. It’s a unique Galway experience that blends reflection, play, and connection.
