Nature Meditations Deck: Simple Mindfulness Practices Inspired by the Natural World

A very beautifully done deck with simple but powerful wisdom. Definitely a great addition to a morning meditation practice or anytime you need some reflection. I love the way these are broken down into categories. I’ll definitely be purchasing as gifts.

I preordered this deck early and I was so excited to finally receive them. The prompts are much better than I expected. They are more thorough and encourage deeper reflection than other oracle or meditation decks I own that tend to be superficial or promote a social media version of self care. I can actually see myself using these regularly and sharing them with others. My only complaint is the box top, which folds back rather than pulls off. I can see myself accidentally ripping it off with repeated use so I’m trying to be gentle with it.

I hoped the cards would live up to their description. They exceeded expectations and I am delighted with the original thoughts that went into creating each card and the clearly expressed words of encouragement. No canned sentiments. Refreshing. I will use them daily to keep connected to the Earth and myself.

The world definitely needed a deck like this one! The Nature Meditations deck is PERFECT for so many aspects of my life. Daily, I pull a "strengthening affirmations" card as I head out the door. I have a long commute to work, so I use the time to meditate on the affirmation for the day. Then, on the weekends, I pull a "walking thought" and/or "messages from earth" card to be more mindful on my hikes. I'm also starting to incorporate the deck in my lunch time meditation. The beauty of this deck is that I can also incorporate it into my work with first-generation, low-income and students with disabilities. It allows me and my staff to incorporate this deck as a special component of our stress management workshops. In 2022, I am also going to incorporate a "message from earth" and/or affirmation section in our weekly newsletter to keep our students grounded as we start a new semester. It's also great quality and the artwork is beautiful. It's a beautiful gift for anyone who needs more mindfulness in their life and/or is advanced in their practice.

Sorry, these cards felt like meditations for beginners to me (which could be good for some, of course). I do like the sections specific to 'nature,' 'walking,' strengthening.' But too wordy with 'find a place to be quiet' (duh), 'go to a park,' 'take a walk' -- 'sometimes life.....' (duh again) -- and 'imagine you're an (animal of your choice), and how did that feel? And, 'picture a beautiful waterfall and imagine it overflowing with your accomplishments.' I can't even imagine how to picture that. I feel like they had to invent a bunch of scenarios to fill the deck. What we really need to do is practice gratitude and pray for balance every day. Visualizing can be powerful, but I don't feel that they tapped that properly here other than visualizing peace and beauty and calm.I saw these cards for sale at Zion National Park recently and I really wanted to check them out. Nature IS my go-to for rebalancing. It's God's gift of beauty and peace. But, they're too expensive for my blood and my meditation needs. Just not for me. I know I'm being exceptionally rough here, sorry. I'm a writer, and this could have benefitted from some editing.But I'll also say this is highly subjective. They may be (and for some people here have been) perfect.

As a therapist, I end every session with some type of mindfulness. I let clients pull from cards. This deck is the most decolonized mindfulness deck. My clients enjoy it so much!Wanted to add that this is the most requested deck from my clients. Some of them even bought it because they loved it so much. So grateful to have this tool!

The messages are spot on. You could use these on your deck as well as out on a walk or using a labyrinth. They are packaged durabily and look great. Not too big to bring when traveling. I ended up buying 3 more sets for gifts!

I just started using these in my high school program. The directions and meditations are easy to follow. The concepts were easy for my students to relate too.

I’m completely impressed, moved, overjoyed and contented with the wonderful work you have done to create this incredible tool, resource, insightful guide and inspirational package. I know that I will enjoy many experiences in nature that will have deeper connection and meaning with the invitations you have crafted. Much gratitude!

Love these cards! I use them when I guide nature-based works and workshops, and also ordered a pack to give away the cards as party favours for my 30th birthday, which everyone loved. So happy they’re Black-owned and they’ve visually gorgeous with beautiful messages. Excellent quality and come in a lovely robust box. Would highly recommend.

The words touch the ❤️Incredible how nature can teach us. Amazing writer!

Gave this to a great friend for his birthday. He loved it. Nice container and the cards are sturdy and aesthetically pleasing. Organized kind of like a recipe card box with different sections. Really great content too.We've already had some good discussions on the meditations.Only drawback was the box of the product was slightly damaged. (My BFF didn't seem to mind).
