QUOKKA 120 Meditation Cards – Anxiety Relief Items Affirmation Cards for Mental Health – Calming Self Care for Women – Perfect Mindfulness Gift for Young & Adult

High quality cards with some issues
This card deck was made with high quality, and I generally like what it has to provide, although I’m not sure why the images on each card depict human-like blobs when women are the purported target market. Roughly speaking, I would say I like 80% of the cards, so I’ll be setting aside the other 20%. If I were to rank the 4 card categories, I would rate them in the following decreasing order of value to me: (1) breathing techniques, (2) mindfulness practices, (3) gratitude and appreciation, and (4) affirmations and mantras. The cards on breathing techniques actually overlap with the content of a book I’ve been working through, “Breath Slower, Deeper, Better” by Yael Bloch, so I plan to work through these cards in the future once I better understand the techniques as laid out in the book. However, I agree with some other reviewers here that there is considerable overlap within this card category. As can be seen in my nearby photo, three of these cards present the *exact* *same* breathing technique, with different labels at the top (“Square Breathing”, “4-Part Breath”, “Box Breathing”). A few cards have grammar or spelling mistakes, and some are incorrectly presented. For example, the card labeled “1:2 Ratio Breathing” presents a breathing technique that I often perform while trail running, inhaling for a count of 4 and exhaling for a count of 4, and I mentioned in my review of a book entitled “Still Running” that I also correspond each count with a single stride. The drawing on this card shows counts of 4, but at the bottom then states that these counts should actually be 4 and 8, which I think many would find confusing. In another nearby photo, I show a couple odd cards from the mindfulness practices and gratitude and appreciation categories. None of the gratitude and appreciation cards explain to whom or what these sentiments are directed, but when I see a beverage depicted alongside junk food as “things that bring you peace and calmness”, it makes me cringe. The other card in this photo, labled “Loving-Kindness Meditation” at the top, starts off well, but then suggests that users of these cards “extend these wishes to loved ones, acquaintances, and even difficult individuals.” I would like to understand how following this practice makes sense, since other people aren’t going to be receiving anything from doing so. I would instead suggest that these wishes be communicated directly to individuals, or if this wasn’t possible, to pray for them. The third photo I’ve posted nearby shows three affirmations and mantras card examples as to why I listed this category last. Like some other cards, the first starts out well by encouraging users of these cards to “embrace change and welcome new opportunities”, but then quickly follows up by suggesting that individuals “trust in the universe’s plan for me.” The universe is inanimate and impersonal, and so has no plans for anyone. The second card also starts out well by stating that “I am grounded and centered in the present moment”, but then encourages card users to “connect with the wisdom of my body.” Wisdom originates from outside the body, not from within. Lastly, the third card here encourages individuals to “let go of what no longer serves me”: this sentiment displays extreme selfishness, which I have no desire to emulate.
