Reflection card set for unprecedented times
The INNEN-LEBEN reflection cards are a valuable tool that can help to identify personal challenges and resilience. The reflection questions printed on the cards encourage self-reflection and help you to develop your own coping strategies. The questions lead into new worlds of thought, inspire and help to recognise stress factors and activate resources. Based on Aaron Antonovsky's concept of salutogenesis, the cards fund a sense of coherence and strengthen emotional stability.

The set of reflection cards can be used flexibly and is suitable for individual use as well as for groups of 2 to 20 people.

Structure and procedure
The card set consists of various cards containing questions for self-reflection. The questions are divided into five categories:
- Understanding and overcoming challenges
- Meaningfulness of life
- Self-esteem
- Social integration
- Sense of coherence
The cards can be used as follows:
- Card combination: Draw a card at random or choose a card from the category that particularly appeals to you. Read the question and let it sink in.
- Feel the effect: Take time to think about the question. Feel what thoughts and feelings it triggers in you.
- Find answers: Write down your thoughts and answers. Use this opportunity to listen deeply to yourself and be honest with yourself.
- Take questions with you: Carry the questions and your answers with you or hang them up in a place where you see them often, e.g. in your wardrobe, in the car or on the mirror.
- Share and talk: Share your thoughts and answers with those around you. Discuss the questions and your findings in your group or in a counselling/therapeutic environment.
- Inspiration and empowerment: Display the cards around you and let the questions inspire and empower you and others. Simply reading through the questions can provide positive impulses.
