A lot of adult as well as teenagers struggle with lack of self esteem and suffer every day when interacting with people. These 100 cards provide a number of exercises to increase your self esteem and grow resilient, even if thrown into new situations and being surrounded by strangers. 

Self esteem or lack thereof is debilitating, especially as an adult when being asked to work with colleagues or in a job that requires customer facing interactions. Lack of self- esteem prevents a person from putting their best foot forward and leaves many adult unhappy and feeling like a failure. 

The cards included in this set provide 100 exercises that can be used in any order and at your priority to improve your self esteem and give you the confidence to talk to strangers and friends, while being still yourself.  This Self-Esteem Skills Deck is like having a therapist by your side. 

The best thing is the card format does not require to set aside an hour, but just a brief period, often no more than 15 minutes to complete a simple exercise that tackles self esteem from various angles and in the long run will improve your confidence. The cards provide easy to understand instructions, so you do not need to have completed a therapy degree to understand the exercise.

Best of all, you can do the exercises that feel good to you. While the cards are organized into topics, you can arrange the exercises to your liking and build what you feel is the best sequence of exercises. I really liked the do what feels right to you approach, but having the therapy knowledge in the cards available to stepwise improve your self-esteem. 

I really think these types of card sets will be the way to go in the future. You can improve your life on a budget and still get expert assistance in your hand.
