"These cards can be really helpful for teens dealing with stress or anxiety because they can help them figure out how to deal with emotions and relax. I think it’s important for teens to focus on mindfulness, even if it’s for five minutes every day. There are many different mindful activities, so everyone can find one that fits best for them. Some of my favorite cards are Dropping the Anchor, Your Chill Playlist, and Changing Your Perspective. Gina Biegel is a great teacher, and I’m grateful to be certified in her Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction for Teens (MBSR-T) program."

"Gina’s stress reduction cards are an incredibly useful tool. They are easy to use, cover very important topics with few words, and offer great, implementable suggestions. Helping youth identify their thoughts and emotions, and teaching them to take appropriate action, will help move kids out of their heads into the present moment where there is much good to be found. Helping them recognize the positive stuff in their lives is a sure path to more calm and joy. Teens’ lives have become frighteningly difficult. Statistics about the declining mental health of our youth should be of concern to all of us. We must help our kids, and Gina’s cards are a simple way to do so. Gina’s cards should be a must in every teen’s backpack."
