Description
Here's what people are saying about Mixed Emotions:
"Mixed Emotions is a valuable tool for everyone. Your feelings are your guide to an authentic and healthy life. If I could, I would give every child a set as a gift because it is in childhood that we are taught how to think and, in the process, forget how to feel. Mixed Emotions can be literally life saving."
Bernie Siegel, MD, author of Love, Medicine and Miracles: Lessons Learned About Self-Healing from a Surgeon's Experience with Exceptional Patients and Prescriptions For Living
( www.ecap-online.org )
"We all have rich stores of wisdom and healing within us. Yet we need help in believing these graces can be accessed. Here is a toolbox that makes that happen! It deftly combines fun and knowledge so that we trust ourselves and cherish our inborn gifts. We find and open the lively feelings that are waiting inside us."
David Richo, Ph.D., M.F.T, author of Unexpected Miracles: The Gift of Synchronicity and How to Open It and Shadow Dance: Liberating the Power and Creativity of Your Dark Side ( www.davericho.com )
"Mixed Emotions is a fabulous tool for bypassing confusion and tuning in to your personal truth. I wholeheartedly encourage all who wish to heal to access their spirit with this inspired medium."
Sonia Choquette, Ph.D., author of Your Heart's Desire: Instructions for Creating the Life You Really Want, and True Balance: A Common Sense Guide for Renewing Your Spirit ( www.soniachoquette.com )
"Mixed Emotions is a very creative and interesting product. More than that, it is a process for sorting out the tangle of feelings we all have when confronted by life's puzzling ambiguity and uncertainty."
William Bridges, Ph.D. author of Transitions: Making Sense of Life's Changes and The Way of Transition: Embracing Life's Most Difficult Moments
( www.wmbridges.com )
"Mixed Emotions brings vibrant new color to our emotional palette. Petra Martin's passionately crafted tool introduces a powerful method for exploring our most profound feelings. The beautifully illustrated emotion cards paired with the poignantly simple words truly capture the complex subtext of our emotions. The images on the cards make an immediate personal connection-a feeling of 'Yes! That is what my emotion looks like!'
"Coupled with a detailed and well-crafted instruction booklet, Mixed Emotions is a wonderful tool for individuals, groups, or couples intent on resolving conflict and making decisions with a fully present emotional vocabulary. Mixed Emotions places us gently in tune with the myriad sensations that comprise our inner world."
Wayne Muller, founder and president of Bread for the Journey, and author of Sabbath: Finding Rest, Renewal, and Delight in Our Busy Lives, and Legacy of the Heart: The Spiritual Gifts of a Painful Childhood

"Mixed Emotions is one of the very best methods I've seen for encouraging thoughtful audience participation, and for helping participants grasp important but abstract principles. Whether I'm speaking about personal values, emotional intelligence, or leadership and team building, the Mixed Emotions cards provide me with a range of options for pulling my audience into the topic."
Joe Tye speaker, author of Never Fear, Never Quit and The Twelve Rings of Leadership, and founder of Never Fear, Never Quit ( www.nfnq.com )
"Mixed Emotions is an incredibly clear tool to help identify and sort through the range of feelings we have in any given situation. Strong graphic images combined with thoughtful instructions make this unique card deck very accessible. Mixed Emotions has a universal appeal, and should find its way into an unusually broad range of settings."
Deborah Koff-Chapin, creator of Soul Cards and Soul Cards 2 (www.touchdrawing.com)
"Mixed Emotions is an outstanding tool that helps bereaved adults and teenagers articulate thoughts and feelings that would otherwise be hard for them to describe. The visual images on the cards evoke an emotional state that helps people more deeply express their grief. The cards provide a safe way to identify and verbalize emotions that are often disturbing or confusing, so they can then be processed."
Rev. Peggy McEntee, Ed.M., Franciscan Hospice Bereavement Coordinator (www.fhshealth.org/services/hosp.asp)
