Storying Experience

Using the Storying Experience Card Set to accompany Creativity and Therapy
These cards were made through the body rather than head/idea/concept and invite you to engage with them first through the body before engaging in more intellectual or heady meaning making.
These cards invite you to engage with them, handle them, move them about, arrange them until they are in a form that, for you in that very moment, feels satisfying or somehow ‘spot on’ in relation to your body and experience, what moves and resonates with the body and provides a sensation that allows you to settle into exactly what you are doing and committed to in that particular moment.
These cards wish for you to be curious, playful and adventurous but not to push, bully or edit yourself with a harsh critical voice - or at least get to know and get into conversation with those critical voices through creative forms. These cards are designed to be used to engage in slow and expansive enquiry to generate storytelling of close nuanced personal experience. It's about allowing multiple stories to be made visible and being with them to allow all to be heard, especially the quieter ones that might get overlooked at other times.
These cards are not prescriptive - sometimes just being with the cards without a fixed idea or plan can be revealing in itself.
