"The thoughts that the cards sparked were amazing"  - Jolie

"There’s nothing fluffy about it. It goes straight to the heart of things" - Chris

"It’s so beautifully made, and the language is clear and powerful. I’ve used it on my own and also with my partner. It opens up really meaningful conversations." - Emma

"What I love is that it doesn’t tell you what to do, it shows you what’s there. It helps me be more honest with myself, gently." - Jane

"It's like a secular tarot!"- Ben

"This deck cuts through the noise. I pulled a tangled card and felt a kind of jolt - it named something I hadn’t even realised was shaping my whole dynamic."- Ruth

"I pulled a card and burst into tears. Not because it was harsh, but because it was true and I hadn’t let myself see it until then." - Elaine

Simple Truths ® is a deck of cards designed to help you think about your relationships. These can be relationships with people such as a partner, friend, family member or colleague; or they can be relationships with things in your life such as money, health or career.

The deck is made up of two 'suits'. There is a suit of 100 tangled cards, and a suit of 100 untangled cards. Each card has written on it a simple sentence.

The sentences on the tangled cards are in red. They name a hidden dynamic or underlying issue that might exist in the relationship you are focussing on. For example, 'I am a little bit better than you' or 'I will take your pain for you'.

The sentences on the untangled cards are in green. They suggest a more helpful way of thinking about the relationship. For example, 'I played my part' or 'I will let you see me'.

You are invited to draw up to three tangled red cards and three untangled green cards. The sentences you draw will encourage you to reflect on the relationship and how it could be improved.
