When we go through challenging times, often we don’t want to reach out to other people because we worry about making them feel uncomfortable or becoming a burden to them. So, we just stay in our place of sadness.
The 36 cards in the Healing Words for Heavy Hearts deck have messages of hope, encouragement, and solace.
This card deck can become a source of great comfort and hope.
How This Card Deck is Different
Most of the grief card decks and journals out there are focused on helping people who lost a loved one. However, emotional pain can happen for many reasons and come in different shapes.
This card deck can bring relief to people experiencing depression and anxiety, domestic violence, miscarriage, missing child, serious illness, divorce, break-up, burnout, financial problems, a failed business, or other life-changing or traumatic situations that have left people with a heavy heart.
Design and Symbolism
Each card has a message connected to the animal pictured on the back of the card, based on the symbolism of that animal. For example, an owl represents prosperity; an elephant—patience; an eagle—freedom, and so on. The colorful illustrations and imagery contribute to their healing power, helping to create the sensations of peace, healing, and hope that we crave as we go through difficult times.
