A deck about the ways a child’s mind saved itself, and about why a grown person still uses them.
The deck holds 80 metaphorical associative cards with the primitive childhood psychological defenses the mind produces automatically.
Some of these defenses grow more complex with age and become mature, while others stay in their childhood form and keep switching on in a grown person in situations where they do not fit.
The task of the deck is to find the childhood defenses in particular, understand what the child was defending against, and turn that into constructive adult behavior.
There is a particular value in this work: a defense can be built up right in the mind of the inner child, by showing them how they could have reacted differently with today’s experience.
The deck can be used as a deep diagnostic, clarifying, deepening, transformational and supporting tool in counseling, therapy, training and psychological transformation games.
Work starts from these questions. Choose one, the one that speaks to you more strongly than the rest, and work with it, because only one defense is examined well in a single session.
