“Taste of Life” is a game that reveals things we often don’t even realize. – Author and host of the game Natalia Stadnychuk.
We’ve heard so much feedback from players that we have to tell you about it!
The participants shared that from the very first steps, a feeling of surprise appears: “What, was that possible?” you ask yourself when you suddenly realize that simple things can have a different flavor, a different depth. In the game, you gradually discover that true taste does not come from outside — “sensations come from within, and taste comes from there too.” It’s not about rules or right decisions — it’s about returning to yourself.
The game is very gentle and caring. Participants called it a game that “touches one very softly.” It seems to suggest that one should stop, take a breath, and give oneself some peace and quiet. “It gives you time to process and digest,” said Oksana, and this is perhaps one of its greatest values: it doesn’t push you forward, it accompanies you. In each round, you feel a concern for inner security — “caution and self-protection.”
The feeling of gratitude was a surprise for everyone… gratitude to oneself, or for coincidences that turn out to be not coincidental at all. “Accidental non-coincidence” is how the participants described their insights, because each card, each symbolic task, each inner step seems to come at just the right time, just when a person is ready to hear it.
The Taste of Life game awakens a willingness to experiment. Participants noted: “I am ready to experiment when I am ‘fed’. That is when my internal resources are full, when I have support, then I want to try new things — change the taste of life, add ingredients that I have long wanted to try. We also heard: “I am ready to change the ‘menu’ in order to practice” — and this is already about internal permission for change and creativity.
At the end of the game, thoughtfulness sets in. “Launching the process, coaching menu” — that’s what the participants called it. The game presses “play” on internal processes. It doesn’t give ready-made answers, but it gives space for questions that can change your life. This is the moment when you no longer just taste — you begin to consciously prepare your life.
