Cognitive Self Help Decks
Books and Author Events
The Cognitive Reflection Deck is a tool that I built for myself. I now offer it to others if you wish to use it.I am currently in the process of developing the second deck. It's called the Cognitive Inspiration Deck and is a little more action oriented than the reflection Deck.
These cards can be used as mindful inspiration when in distress or for exploring possibilities you may not have considered.I use them to sidestep some of my neurodivergent roadblocks. Being able to pull cards randomly can get around demand avoidance when it is hindering progress I'd like to make.The simplicity of focusing on the prompt from one card helps ground me so I can stave off overthinking for a while.Because I have associated them with small steps toward growth and fulfillment, their quiet neutrality gives me a small, unintrusive foothold out of negatively spiraling thought patterns.
No. But they can share similar functions, depending on how you use Tarot.How they are different:Tarot is a traditional medium based on anciently recognized patterns represented by widely acknowledged symbols.My Cognitive Decks are a synthesis of both universally experienced patterns and modern understanding of learning and consciousness.Most Tarot decks come with an explanation booklet and is a tool used to form meaning and guidance.Cognitive Decks are much more simple on the surface, with a small insight and option printed on the back of the card. Meaning making and deciding next steps happen more internally from this small seed, instead of being outsourced to a complicated spread.How they are similar:Both utilize a structured card system consisting of suits and numbers.Both can be used solo or with a friend, guide, or clinician.
