MONSTERS ARE REAL
Sometimes, the boundaries between good and evil, love
and hate, freedom and captivity are blurred. Sometimes, scars run deeper than flesh. Sometimes, the biggest monsters we face are the ones in our own thoughts.
For the BANISHED, it’s rough terrain: become a
madman or go insane. The biggest challenge they face,
conquer the demons within, not the demons that chase.

50 Light & Shadow Self-Acceptance Transformation Cards to
encourage young people to confront their fears and to think about
their own scars differently. Scars run deeper than the flesh, and
monsters come in many forms. Be it gargoyles, trolls, or clowns, sometimes the biggest monsters we face are in our own thoughts.
Just as the pressure of extreme heat turns simple ashes into beautiful diamonds, self-acceptance can help teens understand themselves better.
