Working With Oracle Cards

In today’s episode of The Mindful Minute, we will talk about different oracle decks, how to incorporate an oracle deck into your meditation practice, trusting your intuitive response, and how to understand the energy beneath each card. This class is great for those wanting to use a deck and aren’t sure how, and for those that want to work with specific images or feelings that arise in meditation practice {with or without a deck to support it!}.

So grab your favorite deck of oracle cards, your headphones and tune in today!
