Creative and Curious Cards for Mental Wellness
FIRST RUN SOLD OUT! Second edition coming soon: for group orders or retail, please email me at director@carolinamusictherapy.com.
Small habits can have big impact in our mental wellness, but can be daunting to keep-especially for those who are neurodivergent, experience high stress levels or live with mental illness. The mission of Creative and Curious Cards for Mental Wellness is to increase engagement in creative practices for mental health among teens and adults, both in direct use and as a resource for therapists and mental health counselors to share with clients.
Each of the four suits (movement, music, writing and visual art) contains 13 distinct prompts from established creatives in the Upstate, SC area which are designed to foster self expression and healing through creativity. Each prompt is kept simple and accessible; no prior creative experience or substantial supplies are needed, and most can be done in less than 10 minutes.
Creative contributors include:
Bailie (Card Art)
Courtney Chandler, ATR-BC (Visual Art Prompts)
Louise Fagan, BA (Writing Prompts)
Alison Hughey, MT-BC (Music Prompts)
Susan Woodham, BA (Movement Prompts)
This program is funded in part by the Chapman Cultural Center, its donors, the County and City of Spartanburg and the South Carolina Arts Commission which receives support from the National Endowment for the arts and the John and Susan Bennett Memorial Arts Fund of the Coastal Community Foundation of SC.
This card deck is intended to be a supportive tool for mental wellness and does not replace the need for professional mental health care. If you are in need of crisis support, please text 988 or call 1-800-662-HELP(4357). It’s okay to not be okay, but please reach out for help right away.
