Spill the tea - we want to hear from you!

Ever wondered how the spiritual world of Tarot and Angel Card Healers navigate the digital realm of TikTok? My co-researcher, Natalie Katchouh and I journey into the captivating realm of these unique content creators and their adept use of digital marketing. We unravel the controversies they face, the dangers of propagating health and well-being information on social media, and the issues arising from internet addiction.
In the latter part of our discussion, we draw connections between card readings and expressive art therapy, delving into the American Art Therapy Association's definition and relevant psychotherapy methodologies. We touch on how mental health care is evolving in digital channels and the ethical challenges this new frontier presents. We also share findings from our engaging research on the online existence of Tarot and Angel Card Healers, and the sentiment and commercial functions at play. Tune in for an insightful exploration into the intersection of social media, digital marketing, and mental health!
Join us at the Conscious Breathing & Meditation, Mindfulness and Emotional Well-being Track in Room D at EWBIC on Friday, July 21, where we will present our final conclusions and results. For more information or to register, please visit: https://www.ewbi-canada.org/ewbic2023/.
