Desert Reflection Cards

Updated: Jul 17


I’m happy to share that Desert Reflection Cards are currently available for purchase online here as well as locally at The Bean of Mesilla. More information below:


Desert Reflection Cards


This 67-card deck pairs photo images of the land, plants, and wildlife of the New Mexico desert with prompts for reflection and contemplation. The deck contains an instruction book and identification guide of the creatures, features, plants, and places that turn up, almost all of them found in the Chihuahuan Desert.



From the instruction booklet:


"Special moments in nature can stay with us, giving us a sense of connection with the web of life around us and a deeper understanding of ourselves. As an ecotherapist, I’ve found healing and wisdom in deeply relating with the natural world of the New Mexico desert where I live. I hope these cards invite you into reflection on the beauty of the natural world and its messages. May you find comfort, grounding, insight, growth, and support for cultivating connection with nature where you are. I hope you feel more like yourself, and more a part of a larger whole, as you use these cards."


How to Use Desert Reflection Cards


There’s no single “right” way to use these cards. They’re meant as a guide, a prompt, a jumping-off place for exploration. If you’re feeling spontaneous, draw a card and see where it leads you. Feel free to focus on a topic that speaks to you. If you want to go deeper with a particular quality or concept, leave the card where you can see it as a reminder as long as you’d like to focus on it. Have fun! You might even want to experiment with making your own cards with images and words that are meaningful to you.
