As a professional
Are you a counsellor, psychologist, psychiatrist, mental health worker, youth worker, support worker, mentor or in some other field of physical, mental or emotional health? These cards were designed with this exact situation in mind. Use the cards to help your clients to see and embody their strengths. Get them to flick through and choose 3 strengths that they relate to. Go through the definitions and synonyms and spend some time discussing it together. They can work as a great lead in to helpful and usually deep conversations.
In a group
A couple of packs shared around a group can be a powerful tool. They can be easily handed around and flicked through due to the single ring binding, but the ring is easy to undo and cards can be shared around the group. Fantastic discussions can begin based on which cards people have chosen and why.
