Between making sure you meet that work deadline, taking care of loved ones and remembering to start the day with a healthy breakfast, you might forget to reward yourself for keeping up with everything life throws at you. Affirmation cards can help. The key is finding a deck that speaks to you in a voice you want to listen to. Here’s how to find that extra little boost.
Ruminating over a pack of affirmation cards may not seem like an obvious party game, but hear us out: maybe you’re with a crowd you want to get closer to; or perhaps you’re spending the weekend with a particularly introspective crew. Don’t be afraid to share the wisdom and spread it around—it’ll be fun!
Affirmation cards are a terrific present for adults and kiddos alike. A pack with a fun design and whimsical voice is best for little ones, and turns the act of practicing self-love, confidence and compassion into a crucial early lesson.
If you’re averse to the hopey-changey nature of affirmation cards, consider this: negative thinking can hold you back personally and professionally—and don’t you get enough negativity from other people? There’s nothing shameful or cheesy about trying to inspire and empower yourself.
