Summary

A 45-card deck and guidebook for mental and emotional wellbeing from author of Toolkit for Modern Life, Dr Emma Hepburn (@psychologymum).

Description

'Her brilliant, accessible illustrations bring understanding to all the tricks and twists of our complicated brains.' - Nell Frizzell

This box may not contain band aids or antiseptic wipes but it is ready to deliver some urgent care to your brain.

Just like the first aid kit in your glove box or bathroom cabinet, the Emotional First Aid Kit is full of practical tools for looking after yourself and the people you love. Each card focuses on a different topic of mental and emotional wellbeing; with an illustration to help visualize how your brain works, and a practical exercise to restore balance and self-compassion.

Either read them at random, using the cards to pay attention to your inner thoughts and feelings, or focus on specific cards that you identify with - no matter your approach these cards will allow you to better understand how your mind works, and help you develop positive coping strategies.

'In a world of white noise it is often hard to hear - or even find - the mental health support you need. Emma has a unique way of cutting through to the heart of the issues we all face day-in-day-out.' - Anna Whitehouse

'Emma helped me understand my own thoughts.' - Emma Gannon

'Emma is relatable, practical and knowledgeable.' - Gemma Bray

'Emma has an amazing talent for making evidence-based psychology easy to understand and simple to put into practice.' - Dr Jessamy Hibberd
