A trust exercise, also known as partner exercise and partner work, has been used in therapeutic settings for many years. This process was first described by Dr. Carl Rogers in his book On Becoming a Person. It involves having two people sit opposite each other with their knees lightly touching and facing the same direction. Thereby creating the illusion of unity between them. By doing this exercise, each person expresses how he or she feels inside in an attempt to build confidence and trust towards one another, as well as themselves.
