I love affirmations and use “oracle” decks to provide a positive boost in the morning or whenever I need a lift. It’s my way of telling the Universe I’m open to listening to their message: “Have at it!” “I’m listening!” “Tell me more!” I hope you enjoy as I introduce some of my favorite cards and quotes in my newsletters! These make great gifts for any occasion as well as can be used as inspirational hand-outs in class if you are a yoga instructor.

I love to be “self-empowered”. This month’s deck of cards is called “Empowerment Cards For Inspired Living.” They’re by Tavis Smiley. I picked this gem up at the Minneapolis Edge Life Expo held in November each year (as of the original date of this post.)

You can buy your very own on Amazon.

Description: Expanding on the themes that connect us all, talk-show host and author Tavis Smiley pours his passion and commitment for promoting positive change into these 70 personalized empowerment cards. Tavis’s words of introspection, wisdom, and encouragement will help you to think and decide critically, enabling you to improve both your own life and the lives of those in your family and community. Keep the Faith!

Back in November, I highlighted one of my favorite decks—a wonderfully whimsical, inspiring, thought-provoking Enrichuals© deck, created by local author, artist and creativity coach, Suzanne Vadnais Monson. Refer to the November newsletter archive for a sample card. Suzanne has graciously agreed to let me make them available on Better Day Yoga’s product page online! (As of 2/3/23 there are only seven of these left in stock and when they’re gone, they’re gone!) https://betterdayyoga.com/products.htm
