FAQ: Daily Practice card decks

Daily Practice Card Decks are tools designed to support consistent, mindful routines by providing daily prompts or exercises that encourage personal growth, reflection, and habit-building. Each card contains a task, challenge, or thought-provoking prompt intended to be completed or reflected upon each day, helping users stay engaged with their personal development goals.

These decks are used by individuals seeking to establish or maintain daily habits related to mindfulness, self-care, productivity, or wellness. They are popular among people who are looking to improve their mental, emotional, or physical well-being through consistent practice. Coaches, therapists, and wellness professionals may also use these decks with clients to reinforce daily habits and accountability.

You use these decks to build positive routines, create intentional habits, and stay focused on your personal growth or wellness journey. The cards serve as daily reminders to reflect on specific areas of life, offering a structured way to practice mindfulness, gratitude, productivity, or any other focus area. They provide consistency and help make progress feel manageable by breaking it into small, achievable daily actions.

To use the deck, you draw one card each day and follow the prompt, which may suggest an action, reflection, or exercise. These tasks can include anything from journaling about gratitude, practicing a new skill, completing a wellness activity, or setting intentions for the day. Some users may incorporate the cards into their morning or evening routines, while others use them throughout the day as reminders to stay mindful and intentional. The practice is designed to be flexible, so users can adapt the cards to fit their specific goals and lifestyle.

Cosmic Deck of Initiation

LIFE IS AN AMAZING ADVENTURE!

SINGLE DECK

There comes a time in every generation when consciousness shifts, and new paradigms and philosophies begin to expand into our realities. At those times new tools and modalities evolved into the culture to facilitate the further expansion of consciousness. This deck was channeled as this new wave of consciousness crested and started to open the hearts and minds of the culture. The use of the ancient form of mandalas to express the spiritual energies of the transformation process brings the wisdom of the ancients forward in time to aide in the ascension process of the consciousness evolving to new levels of awareness.

This is your personal deck, as you work with it, as you link with the patterns and tap into the energy that is within the cards you will start to have a more intimate experience with each card and perhaps even shift or expand on the definitions given in this book. There are intentional blank spaces within so that you can take notes or shift meanings … Feel free to expand on what I have written for as it becomes more familiar to you, it literally becomes you. This deck provides a tool to tap into and open to the energies that are within you and will give philosophical wisdoms for you to consider in evolving your spiritual energies and how to use them within your reality.

This deck offers positive insights and true understandings of our realities. It gives no negative admonitions, no pejorative interpretations. Each challenge, person, and situation in life is recognized as another step, another step forward to greater self-understanding, growth and evolution of spirit. To judge our lives as good or bad is to cast opinion from a limited perspective. Challenges are opportunities for growth that we asked to be provided with in order reach greater frequencies within.

The deck Will never give you a yes or no (trust me on this one… I tried) but rather you will be given areas to focus on, wisdom to weave into situations or insights to reality that you might not have considered. This is a deck of growth and spiritual insight. It well may trigger creative energies and open you to new vistas within your life. This is a channeled deck, channeled through one who is not an artist, and yet I painted; bringing wisdom through time, and yet I am not a philosopher or sage sharing insight and spiritual magic, and yet wisdom flows through me. It came through me, not of me and I cannot express enough the love and creative gifts I have experienced because of the gift of this deck.

These cards are not just pretty paintings. They were painted in a specific order to express the Spirits journey from the time of entrance into this reality to the time of exit when we cross over into the threshold to another dimension and level of consciousness. In using the deck, it is important to pay attention not just the names of the cards but also how the patterns are placed within the form … are they sharp or rounded, how are the colors overlaid and what is the background color. Color was very important in the creation of every card. The chakra colors are represented in every card with a white center representing the Source of all creation or the Divine, or Cosmic Consciousness (you get the idea). Pay attention to how the colors are represented in each card for they will trigger messages themselves within your consciousness. The Cosmic Deck was designed and channeled with the chakra system in mind …each of the mandalas were painted with all energies represented as well. As you work with the deck and get into the greater subtleties represented you will find that the colors give you even more detailed information. For those who want to go even further into the use and understanding of the cards I am including chakra color information here so that you can draw upon it when and if you reach that point in your use of the cards. But, most importantly of all …have fun with them and remember that we are supposed to celebrate rather than just survive this lifetime and that all the gifts and talents that we carry within are tools gathered through countless lifetimes and brought to this reality to manifest even greater treasures that are within.

Fairy Tales metaphoric cards

JOURNEY THROUGH THE ENCHANTING WORLD OF FAIRY TALES WITH SYMBOLIC WISDOM AND INSIGHT.

SINGLE DECK

Fairy tale metaphoric cards are a tool that uses images and symbols from fairy tales to provide insights into a person's life, emotions, and future. Fairy tale metaphoric cards can be used for a variety of purposes, including self-reflection, decision-making, problem-solving, and spiritual growth. They offer a unique and imaginative way to explore the deeper aspects of our psyche and tap into the collective wisdom of traditional folklore and mythology. They can be an excellent tool for working with both children and adults, providing a creative and engaging activity that can be presented in a game format.
Each of us has an inner child - we were all once children, spontaneous, creative, joyful, curious, and well aware of our desires. However, contact with our inner child can be lost, causing us to miss out on many strong characteristics and joyful opportunities. Fairy tale metaphoric cards can help restore our connection with our inner child and provide a deeper understanding of our desires and motivations. But of course, the benefits of fairy tale metaphoric cards go beyond restoring contact with our inner child. There are lots of articles about the benefits of fairy tale therapy, and the main specific of those cards is that fairytale is a natural, comprehensible and ecological format that does not scare us.
Fairy Tales Deck includes characters, locations, different items (like letter, sword, money chest etc.), animals and other mythical creatures.

Return to Mindfulness

EIGHT SKILLS TO LIVE, LOVE, AND LEAD FROM A PLACE OF CLARITY AND CONNECTION

SINGLE DECK

Life is messy. And it’s beautiful. The Return deck offers a mindful lens for everyday life, to find beauty even in the messiness. You can draw cards to gain clarity about what’s happening and what’s important in the middle of a challenging day. You can also practice with the cards when life is good—to deepen your connection with all of life in that moment and make meaningful choices that benefit you, your loved ones, and the world.

Like a mindful friend, these cards are designed to be there for you when you need them.

Practice and play with the mindfulness cards to:

  1. Start your day intentionally
  2. Find clarity about a situation or relationship
  3. Make choices that are personally and collectively fulfilling
  4. Share a meaningful experience with a loved one
  5. Return to your present moment experience, possibilities, and creative insight

These cards are a work of love combining many hours of meditation, contemplative discussions, research, and a human centered approach to address the question:

What would help meditators integrate mindfulness into their everyday life?

The answers, we discovered, are relevant to everyone—whether you’ve been meditating for years or you’re not interested in meditation. Here’s the thing. Our minds enable us to see clearly, connect deeply, and find creative solutions. The same mind can also cloud our thinking, create divisiveness, and cause harm to ourselves and others.

While we may not have control over our circumstances, we can systematically and playfully strengthen habits of the mind that enable us to return to our innate capacity to know, feel, love, and connect with what’s important while staying open to possibilities.

More specifically, there are eight habits of the mind that empower us to be mindful in the real world:
1. Awareness
2. Compassion
3. Curiosity
4. Energy
5. Appreciative Joy
6. Inner Calm
7. Focus
8. Equanimity

Yup, based on the original mindfulness teachings and modern science, we can strengthen these eight habits that disrupt our default tendencies to rush and react and be mindful. This deck was designed to help you do that!

ABOUT THE CREATORS
Each card in this deck has been lovingly created by Dr. Shalini Bahl and Max Alaghband to meet you wherever you are on your journey.

Max Alaghband brings his training and expertise in yoga and human-centered design, which informed the development, testing, and trying of this product.
