The Signposts tool box

Additional ideas, information and resources

Congratulations on purchasing Signposts, a set of 48 cards for reflecting on, and talking about, how we can find meaning and significance in everyday life.

As humans we are drawn to conversations about the ‘big questions of life’, but we don’t always have the language to express the complexities of what we sometimes call ‘spirituality’ or ‘the soul’.

Signposts is not based on a particular theology, doctrine or philosophy, but instead explores ways to action our beliefs and reflect on the mystery of life’s purpose.

Now that you have the cards, you will be wanting some fresh and innovative ideas for how to incorporate the cards into your work, and perhaps your life.

In this Tool Box, you will find the digital booklet, which contains lots of information about eating disorders, disordered eating and other ‘shadowy companions’ like depression and anxiety, plus loads of activities and suggestions for how to use the cards in different settings. (This can be printed as an A5 hardcopy booklet.)

As a BONUS gift to you, we are giving you access to the digital version of the cards! The digital cards are interactive, making them ideal for building rapport and connection. And because they are digital, you can use them anywhere, anytime.

Feel free to browse this page and get inspired by stories from other people on how they’ve used the cards. And don’t forget to explore the range of other supporting materials and information, which is at your fingertips any time you need it.

This Tool Box is exclusively for people who have purchased the cards. We will continue to add resources and ideas so check in regularly to see what’s new!
