One-Day Workshop:
Introduction to Metaphoric Cards (MAC)

What Are Metaphoric Cards?
Metaphoric cards are visual tools used in therapy, coaching, and self-reflection. They feature images or words that stimulate the creative mind, intuition, emotions, and associations, helping individuals explore their feelings and experiences on a deep, soulful level—bypassing the thinking mind. These cards provide a pathway to the subconscious, offering profound insights.

Who Are Metaphoric Cards For?
MAC cards are ideal for professionals in therapy and coaching, as well as anyone interested in personal growth or building interpersonal connections with friends and family. They can be used for trauma support, conflict resolution, goal-setting, imagination expansion, and much more.
