The Practical Magic Activation Deck: The UK’s first personal life coach in a box aimed at making life guidance accessible

With the wellness industry estimated to be worth £2.82 trillion,* January is a time when self improvement is at an all time high with an average of £187**  being spent per person on new year resolutions. However, 39% of people report having difficulty in paying for their resolutions all year ‘round***, which is one of the contributing factors to why 56% of Brits fail to keep theirs.**** But what if a tool costing just £45 could revolutionise our personal development and wellbeing throughout the entire year, and help people improve their lives beyond January?

The Practical Magic Activation Deck is the UK’s first ‘personal life coach in a box’ created by leading life coach Kate Taylor, as a way to make life coaching and powerful tools such as neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) and mindfulness accessible to everyone, and at any time.

“We’re busy, overwhelmed and distracted. Life in Britain and throughout the rest of the world is uncertain. As we know, issues with mental health, overwhelm, burnout, anxiety and stress-related illnesses are at an all-time high. We’ve become disconnected from our own wisdom — living in our heads and finding it more difficult to trust our own decisions and judgements on what’s best for us,” says Kate Taylor, creator of the new Practical Magic Activation Deck.

Described as ‘The silver bullet medicine that looks like candy’, the Practical Magic Activation Deck is 56 vibrantly illustrated cards and an accompanying book which has a powerful activation exercise for each design. Kate’s taken the tools she uses successfully with her clients, which includes practical life coaching prompts, neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), creative mindfulness, visualisation and breathing exercises, as well as movement practices, to help people connect both mind and body, and create pragmatic and practical change through each activation exercise. Available to use any time of the day and in any circumstance, the user simply pulls a card and takes a moment to connect to the creative and message on the card.

“Clients were coming to me lost, stuck, confused, burnt out, disconnected from themselves and their intuition,” Kate says. “They were looking everywhere on the exterior for the answers to their lives - outsourcing guidance to endless self-help books, gurus and even Kanye! My work became about helping them back to themselves, back into their bodies, and ultimately empowering them to make positive and long-lasting changes created by themselves.”

The Practical Magic Activation Deck is now available to purchase via www.practicalmagicliving.com and costs £45.00.
