The Deck of Care is an easy reference for free, achievable self-care activities that is built into a standard deck playing cards. Filled with fun graphics meant to keep self-care light-hearted, this deck is your perfect companion as you experiment in finding what works best for you when it comes to well-being.

Loosely inspired by tarot, the numbers are designed to create a path of self-discovery and self-compassion. Each number covers an evidence-based approach- like meditation or boundaries - and each card distills down a core wellness skill down to its basics. Each suit is an area of life - such as emotion or passion. You can shuffle the deck to pick one thing to do at random, play out a suit to experience many self-care activities in one area of life, or explore a category of self-care by playing out the four cards in one number. As you play, you'll learn a lot of self-care strategies - and gain an understanding of what works for you when.

The deck also makes a great self-care gift for friends and loved ones entering difficult new adventures - like going to college, attending graduate school, starting a new job, or beginning a family. It serves as a physical reminder to always invest in wellness - even when it seems impossible. We've even designed the deck to be child-friendly, so it can be a lifelong aid for a young one in your life who is just starting to build their self-care kit.

The Deck of Care was brought to life by a community of over 400 backers on Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/exhaustedmillennial/the-deck-of-care
