Encouragement Cards Pack of 8

Reaching out to someone who needs a little encouragement could be the difference between them sinking or swimming. 

Cards of encouragement can truly be some of the most important cards to write—words of encouragement can actually increase the recipient's dopamine, which can help the brain keep going through tough situations. Your words, written into a card, might sit on their bedside table to be read again and again. Your words can change outcomes. Your words truly matter. 

This bundle of our 8 top cards of encouragement also comes with a mini-guide explaining the difference between Sympathy and Encouragement and gives suggestions on who might really need an encouraging card.

*Wondering the difference between Sympathy and Encouragement? Encouragement emphasizes hope — which is perfect for someone with cancer, but not so helpful when someone has lost a loved one. (This is why we offer a separate Sympathy Pack which contains different curated cards from this Encouragement Pack. Both important, depending on the situation!)
