For the last twenty years, beloved teacher and coach Cheryl Richardson has dedicated her personal and professional life to the importance of self-care–by sharing what she has learned from her own experience. “I’ve come to understand that selfishness leads to selflessness,” she explains. “When we care deeply for ourselves, we naturally begin to care for others–our families, our friends, our greater global community, and the environment–in a healthier and more effective way.”

This joyful and whimsical illustrated card deck, based on Cheryl’s classic Self-Care Cards, has been fully revised with new artwork and fresh ideas to meet today’s needs. This deck puts the power to care for yourself–and thereby for others–literally in your hands. Each card carries a gentle but clear reminder of what’s essential for self-care: to slow down, trust yourself, honor your body, release judgment, open yourself to change, say no when you need to, and more.
