Know Yourself: Cards for Self-Exploration

Me gustó y es de buena calidad. Es un juego bien diseñado

I picked up the Know Yourself Prompt Cards: Cards for Self Exploration, as I had come out of some lifetime cognitive dissonance with leaving the religion that I was brought up in. In my mid-life now, I am finally allowing myself to consider what do "I" think about what I want, need, the relationships in my life, society, and life in general, which I hadn't allowed myself to truly think before, having consumed myself about what others think and maintaining appearances to be accepted. Some of the questions or prompts question things that may be quite simple or obvious, but when you really think about them, there are can be some depth to the answers you find within yourself. I take out a card a day to reflect, and sometimes discuss with others, then move on to the next the following day. It's a new routine I have that has grounded me, in a sense, and helped me with my transition out of the toxic religion of my former life.

I shuffled 10 times in a row and got sexual related questions or questions that asked me to think of my negative traits or dark side. Not recommended for people not ready to answer things like this.

These cards have helped me daily to give me ideas on self discovery and journaling. There are 60 cards, that is plenty of material to work with all year. They are great.

I wasn't really sure what to expect with these cards. I didn't know if they would be for personal use, conversation starters in a new relationship or maybe road trip questions with friends. After getting them - my husband and I had some down time, so I started going though the cards. Maybe because we are older (53 / 52) and have already been together for over 20 years - we pretty much knew how we would both answer the questions. Even still, it was nice just sitting down going though the cards. Some of them could seem too serious for fun questions with friends though - so i am really not sure how I would use these on a regular basis. One of the descriptions I read somewhere said for self discovery - but I think that if you are going to go though these, you might need to bounce some of the responses off of someone else. That way you have a little more accountability to really, truly answer the questions otherwise it would be super easy to just give a shallow response without really digging into yourself for a true answer.as for the cards set itself - it comes packaged in a little flip top box and they are printed on a good weight card stock.
