Emotions

I created the "Today I Feel..." card deck during the Covid-19 pandemic as a way to explore my feelings. Drawing and coloring had a calming effect. I drew each day and ended up with over 50 colorful cards that I decided to turn into a 52-card deck to share with others. 

As the decks made their way to people, I received positive feedback. I also discovered that they were especially useful for individuals with ADHD, autism, neurodiversity, and high sensitivity (HSPs), as the deck helped them to explore, express, and process their feelings. 

Autism & Emotions

Saachi, a young girl with autism, has had amazing breakthroughs in her understanding by using the “Today I Feel…” card deck. 

Hear what Saachi, and her mom, Melinda, founder of Darshan (a nonprofit that recognizes the divinity in autism), have to say about Saachi's use of the cards.

“Saachi received a most wonderful gift today. She is so delighted with the cards I have not yet been allowed to take a turn to look through them! Stelli, it’s so clear that each card is infused with love and inspiration. Something bigger than the individual you was clearly coming through you when you created them.”
