We all have access to a deep inner knowing – gut-feelings, intuition, insight, instinct, values – but it’s often drowned out by noise: stress, overwhelm, self-doubt, or the pull to get things “right.” This deck is designed to help you tune back in to your own wisdom, your own deep knowing of what is true and important and helpful.
The 55-card deck is grounded in both modern psychology and contemplative practice, and offers concise, grounded reflections to support living a life that feels rich, full and meaningful. It draws on principles from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and spiritual wisdom traditions. It’s not about giving you answers, it’s about helping you make contact with your own.
What It’s For
This deck is a practical tool for:
- Daily grounding or reflection
- Clarifying values and reconnecting with your body when the mind takes over
- Moving through times when you’ve lost your way and are feeling stuck, indecisive, or overwhelmed
- Journaling prompts or inquiry practice
You can use it alone, with clients, or in community. These cards are tools for inviting presence, acceptance and living a life that feels meaningful, especially when the way forward feels unclear or challenging.
What’s Inside
Each card includes:
- A symbolic image designed to evoke felt experience and internal reflection
- A concise teaching rooted in psychological insight, wisdom traditions, and lived experience
- A simple inquiry or practice to help reflect on and apply the message in real time
These are not predictive cards. They’re experiential tools for noticing, feeling, choosing, and reconnecting with what matters most.
