A TOOL TO IDENTIFY FEELINGS

The I Am… cards were developed as a tool to help identify feelings and increase self-awareness. They can be used either in a clinical setting or in your own home. There are 24 emotion cards and 6 instruction cards in each pocket-sized deck. 

Horses read emotion as information. They don’t see emotions as ‘positive’ or ‘negative’ but rather emotions communicate information in relation to their environment so as they can respond to situations. 

This deck aims to help humans validate their feelings at any given time. As we become adept at identifying and validating our feelings our self-awareness increases significantly and we reduce our susceptibility to triggers. If a human learns to respond to emotion as simply information, they also learn to practice acceptance and self-compassion.
