?english - who am I - קלפים לחיים

מי אני? מי אני באמת?
Who am I? Who am I, really?

This pack consists of cards with pictures of things young adults experience daily. The images were selected to include every sphere of adolescent life and describe emotions, characteristics, and situations they encounter every day

These cards enable the participant to recognize what he or she presents to the world versus what really happens in one's life. It is rare that one permits others to see their inner self or what he/she is really going through. During our lives, we often put on and take off many masks.

These cards enable the participant to expose the true self behind the mask.

These cards are designed to help parents, therapists and education professionals create a meaningful dialogue with these developing young adults, and to support an internal dialogue between one's real self and one's self as perceived by others. The images in this pack can
help to surface difficulties, dilemmas, conflicts, and inner strengths.

The Emotion Dial is a color fan that allows you to quickly express your current emotional state or mood. Turn the dial and select the color that reflects how you feel at a given moment (right now, yesterday afternoon, yesterday at work, etc.).

Color	Emotions	Description in Words

🟠 Orange	Alertness, Slight Tension - Apprehension, restlessness, vigilance, curiosity, high anticipation.	I'm not entirely relaxed. Something stressful or exciting (in an annoying way) is about to happen.
