Her Heart Full of Bright Hope is an oracle of journal
prompts for the woman who understands her heart as a beacon for truth and direction. The oracles intention is to bring a certain illumination back into any area of your life that feels dull or uninspiring through the power of putting 'pen to paper' and opening yourself through the beauty of query. The process of working with the oracle is like the sun coming up to wake any newly planted seeds into the continuing cascade of the fruitful life you are creating.Spoiler... the energy of faith suddenly becomes a habit that is easy to spot in the outside world.

The deck has 55 prompts that will guide you through an archetypal journey of womanhood touching on the many areas of life and love through a series of juicy questions, heart provoking self-inquiry, and remembering how to get radically curious
about yourself through one of the most powerful tools
on the planet...writing! Before you begin your journey with daily journal prompts, know this, handwriting increases neural activity in certain sections of the brain, similar to meditation. According to a study, the mere act of writing by hand unleashes creativity not easily accessed in any other way. This is perhaps the true
magic of a pen: It transports us to unexpected places, on wings that require no more than a timely shot of ink to keep them aloft, destination unknown. And in the process, the mindfulness writing engenders encourages calm and creativity." - Nancy Olsen

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!
