MindTime Cards reveal the forces behind many of our individual differences as people and our patterns of thought.
Our thinking patterns are responsible for our ‘style’ or way of being in life. They tell us:
- what we think is important
- how we relate to others
- how we communicate
- what we need to feel safe and secure
- how we organise our lives (or don’t)
- and many other aspects of what we know to be ourselves and how we are in the world.
With MindTime Cards you can explore how these patterns of thought affect a person’s motivations and how they behave. You can also discover what you and they resist and why. With this understanding of ourselves and others, we can communicate better and connect more deeply with the people around us.
Not in the typical sense, for one there are no winners or losers and the effect they can have is very real and lasting. People change their understanding of themselves, and their relationships with other people. MindTime Cards are grounded in real science, research, and ancient philosophy. They present a practical, step-by-step way to get to know your own thinking. When you play with 2 or more people it will give you a language and framework to understand how you each think and interact in the world.
