The Mood Cards: Make Sense of Your Moods and Emotions for Clarity, Confidence and Well-being - 42 cards and booklet (MOOD series)

I work as a counsellor and have already found several clients have made use of these, whether it is just using the questions for self-exploration and helping them to describe how they feel or writing the questions (and the answers) and the affirmations to transfer to index cards and carry around and read out through the day.As the cards come with a well written foldout instruction card and, a huge array of moods, from hate to acceptance, stressed to confidant, disappointed to proud, they cover a huge array of different moods and feelings. The design is quite simple with a face and couple of words on a colour which suits the mood and I think the packaging is right and would be suitable for working with clients aged from 8 to 80. It wouldn't just be a professional setting, but I guess they would be good for creating a dialogue between parents and children.The cards are extremely well designed, very sturdy and well packaged so they will last me a long time. I've recommended them to colleagues and would encourage any counsellor or someone who works in the mental health field to invest in a pack for working with someone who either doesn't know what to say or when you seem to get 'stuck' and want something quick and easy to get the conversation flowing.I've looked at them at home and can see myself using the affirmations for my self-care.I've looked at a pack of the Enhanced Mood Cards and they look interesting, but I am more than happy to stick with these for now because they are very user-friendly, both for the practitioner and client, or just for someone who wants to have something to add to their own 'mindfulness toolkit'.

Andrea's themoodcards are wonderful. The font is large enough so those with not the best eyesight can easily read the printed guidance on both sides of the cards. The instruction booklet explains how to use the cards for beneficial results.I have a friend whose brother and his wife were having problems. My friend thought of the two of them and selected two cards. She was impressed that the cards she selected for them explained what they were going through and what she had heard both of them saying. She was able to discuss things she had read on their cards with them and try to help.The cards are attractive and offer some really excellent questions and thoughts for self-help with your own moods. The differences between "mood" and "emotion" are also defined. There are 42 different mood cards.themoodcards shipped from the UK to far West Texas in the U.S. in a matter of days. They arrived much quicker than I thought they would. The product arrived in very good condition. I would highly recommend Ms. Harrn's themoodcards.

Bought it to use with my clients, it made a massive difference when working with clients who struggle to recognise and name their feelings. Highly recommended!

These are bigger than I thought, nice quality, should be able to wipe clean. I have bought to work with children in a therapeutic setting, as visual and language aids to emotional development.Only slight annoyance is the mixing of nouns and adjectives. E.g. why say 'Fear' on one card and then 'Annoyed' on the next? However probably isn't a major issue given the intention of the cards.

Very helpful for children and adults in therapy. Helpful in identifying feelings and emotions while also offering solutions.

School teacher recommended these for 8-year-old son who sometimes struggles with processing emotions and big feelings. They have really started to help with meltdowns as he finds just the process of laying them out quite therapeutic in itself (suspect he is on ASD spectrum and awaiting assessment). But then eliminating certain cards to eventually narrow down and identify how he is feeling is great. He often struggles to express exactly what he’s feeling but this is a wonderful process to help us all understand where he is and how we can support him. The questions and affirmations on the cards are also a nice touch and he thoughtfully works through these as well.Highly recommend to other parents who may have kids who struggle with big feelings.

Bought these cards for my teenage daughter who is really struggling with exam stress and anxiety. She shuts down and behaviours spiral. Since these cards arrived we have sat down daily, allowing her to select her own cards and ask the questions on the back. She is actually talking to me and opening up…which in turn is preventing the meltdowns. Of course, it could all still be a novelty but for now they’re working! I thoroughly recommend these cards.

I really like these cards and the main reason is that they work on so many levels. They look so appealing for one thing. And they can encapsulate so much wisdom – in beautiful bite sized chunks. They are about our moods and emotions and let’s face it we are in one or other of the many moods that are available to us – all of our time. And so the question is – what does this particular mood mean and what can we do about it, especially if we are not too keen about it.So you can use these cards a little or a lot, for the odd moment or part of a wellbeing practice. Acceptance...anger..,relief...strong...worried...and so on – yes they are all here. These cards will help you understand yourself and make the changes you choose to make.
