005 - Tarot as a Coping Mechanism: Processing Feelings Through Visual Journaling

Mind Less

“Tarot reminds me the one thing that I have control over is my feelings.” Ever think a deck of cards could help you process your feelings? Neither did Kelly! This week we’re back and we’re digging into the tarot as a coping mechanism, specifically from Kelly’s point of view. The conversation touches on what tarot is, to how to start practicing it, and why it might be another useful tool to have in your toolbox. For Kelly, this looks like finding JUST the right deck, remembering that human life revolves around change, and discovering the root of defensiveness in their anxious mind. The pair also discuss the ethics of tarot as a profession and the most important thing of all - which card is your favourite? Tune in this week to hear how 78 cards can offer perspective, grounding, and space to heal.
