  <body>&quot;What would my life be like without my I AM Cards? Not half as good I'm sure. Since the day the first I AM deck came out, I have religiously pulled one card daily and watched my life transform. There is a simple power in these cards that is unmistakable. They set me on the right foot each and every morning. I've gifted these desks to all my family members, friends, and coaching clients. To say they love them would be a major understatement. Truly invaluable and inspiring. Now with the new I AM Financial Prosperity deck out, I'm pulling two cards a day and watching as the abundance in my life increases with grace, ease, joy, and gratitude. You know the proverbial wisdom about not skipping breakfast? Well, the same thing applies to the I AM cards. Don't leave home without one, or two.

&quot;I give the &quot;I Am&quot; cards to many of my clients. As a Holistic Health Counselor, I'm always on the lookout for healing, inspiring giveaways to assist people in expanding into greater Self-Care. Sohini's &quot;I Am&quot; cards are a perfect match - they are warm and colorful, they are positive-focused, and they are just full of Spirit. Thanks, Sohini.&quot;

&quot;I personally used to sift through the cards about once every two months, finding the few that resonated best with me at the time and posted them on my mirror. Now I've had the same two up for over a year and plan to leave them &quot;permanently,&quot; as they seem to be the ones that sum it all up FOR ME: I AM developing my spirituality by exploring my humanity and I AM aware that I am the creator of my life. The others are still accurate but seem more basic, things that don't need repeating in my daily life anymore. But these are now STATEMENTS about MY TRUTH, rather than reminders to myself. 
 
I have used the I AM cards with one client so far in my internship. (I will use them with many more clients, but we have to gauge each person and relationship individually, of course.) I have used them mainly as pre-written affirmations for her to repeat 5x every morning and night between sessions, or something like that. Another time my intention was for them to be a &quot;transitional object,&quot; meaning an item to keep with her to remind her of me and the therapy, while I was on vacation for a few weeks over the holidays. We also discuss how she felt during the week about each statement. Some she is able to soak in, some she defends against by being &quot;neutral&quot; and just doing the exercise, and some bring up strong emotions. For this particular client, the idea that one can say positive, supportive or loving things about or to oneself is completely new, so they have helped in teaching this.&quot;

&quot;My clients love working with your lovely I AM cards.  They find them uplifting and clarifying, supporting them in drawing themselves back again and again to what they are seeking to create.  Thank you so much for being the love and light in the world that you are that helps us all become who we are.&quot;

&quot;I AM cards are the best gift anyone can give...the gift of self empowerment!&quot;

&quot;I use my I AM cards in my morning meditation to set a tone and intention for the 
day.  It helps to ground me and give me a theme to focus on for my day.  They 
are positive, uplifting and now a part of my spiritual routine.  I just received 
the abundance I AM cards for my birthday and since I've integrated them into my 
meditations I must say the abundance is flowing.  I love my I AM CARDS and I'm 
very grateful for Sohini's innovative gift to the world.&quot;

&quot;The &#8216;I Am&#8217; cards keep me focused every day. I have them in the kitchen and I pick one out in the morning and keep it with me. It&#8217;s a lovely, easy and beautiful way to keep me centered and go about my day with a positive intention and keeps me on track in this busy world of ours. It&#8217;s nice to know that the cards are such a simple yet powerful way to keep you centered on you. The cards are for me. It&#8217;s taken the blaming others way down:-) If I feel lost, or disconnected I pick one up and I am immediately soothed and back on track. It&#8217;s like having your very own life coach, but in a deck of beautiful cards!!! I always feel like I start and go about my day with a stronger sense of &#8220;self&#8217;. It&#8217;s like my own little treat to myself. I find the cards to be very effective, simple yet deeply grounding.&quot;

&quot;By the way, Sohini - I've been meaning to write to you about your affirmation cards and note pads.  The women at the prison loved them.  They were so excited to get them.  And, it was interesting because the gift was announced on the heel of someone sharing about the power of their affirmation.  The next day, one of the women in my trio had her note pad and was recording her new insights.  I loved knowing that you offered them these beautiful gifts.  You are such a gift!&quot;
