Deck published by Microcosm
"When you hear your anxiety speaking to you, whose voice is it?" "What would a healthy relationship with your anxiety look and feel like?" "Visualize a safe place." With these prompts and many others, Dr. Faith G. Harper—bestselling author of Unfuck Your Anxiety and Stress Coping Skills Deck—helps you reflect on your anxiety and learn how to cope with it. Many of us are familiar with the trembling, choking, panicky, or uneasy feelings that characterize anxiety, and they aren't pleasant.
Whether you have a diagnosed anxiety disorder or just want to better handle the anxiety-provoking situations that life throws at you, this 52-card deck will equip you with practical coping strategies and reflection questions to help you understand your anxiety and transform your relationship with it. Use these cards in therapy, in a group, for personal reflection, or whenever you need some help managing your anxious thoughts and feelings.

Portland's most colorful, authentic, and empowering publishing house and distributor, Microcosm Publishing equips readers to make positive changes in their lives and in the world around them. Microcosm emphasizes skill-building, showing hidden histories, and fostering creativity through challenging conventional publishing wisdom with books and zines about DIY skills, food, bicycling, gender, self-care, and social justice.Microcosm has lived in milk crates, in closets, in a mud room, in a windowless basement, in a church, and under a desk at a major credit card company. We've brought our brightly colored books to infoshops, zine fests, media summits, bicycle conferences, parks, street corners, house shows, dirty bars, allnight coffeeshops, art museums, and every corner of the mainstream where we can clear away a little space to set up shop. We set out to save ourselves from not caring, but out there in the margins we've found communities worth always doing it better for. Now we have contracts instead of handshakes, a warehouse instead of a fanny pack full of zines. We have a staff, we have relationships in the industry that send our books to places we wouldn't have dreamed we could walk into ourselves. We're not as drunk or dirty as we used to be. But still, at heart, we've got this milk crate strapped to the back of a bike and we're riding wildly across town to hand you the book that might just be the one that saves your life!
