A Wheel of Needs is a tool that helps individuals identify and understand their unfulfilled needs, which can be related to various aspects of life such as individuality, safety, relationships, or growth[2]. To use a Wheel of Needs, follow these steps:
1. Start at the center: Begin by identifying the most pressing set of needs in your life. These could be related to individuality, safety, relationship, or growth[2].
2. Explore specific needs: Once you have identified the most pressing set of needs, explore the more specific needs within that category. For example, if you identified "relationship" as your most pressing need, you might explore needs related to communication, trust, or intimacy[2].
3. Use a visual aid: A visual representation of the Wheel of Needs can be helpful in guiding you through the process. The Human Systems Needs Wheel is one such tool that can be used[2]. Alternatively, you can create your own visual representation by drawing a circle and dividing it into sections representing different needs.
4. Reflect on your emotions: As you explore your needs, consider how your emotions might be connected to them. You can use an Emotion Wheel, such as Plutchik's Wheel of Emotions[3], to help you identify and understand your emotions better.
5. Take action: Once you have identified your unfulfilled needs and related emotions, consider what actions you can take to address those needs. This might involve setting goals, seeking support, or making changes in your life.
6. Revisit and reassess: Regularly revisit your Wheel of Needs to track your progress and make adjustments as needed. This can help you maintain a balanced and fulfilling life.
For a more detailed understanding and guidance on using a Wheel of Needs, you can watch this video on how to use the Human Systems Emotion Wheels & Needs Wheels[6].
