Why It Works
Why It Works
Remember how time seems to stand still during deep conversations that go late into the night? There's actually science behind that feeling. Our cards are informed by research in mindfulness and positive psychology that shows thoughtful questions activate the brain's empathy centers, releasing oxytocin and actually synchronizing brain patterns between people. It's like your brains literally get on the same wavelength.
Our approach: Let's face it—jumping straight into deep conversation can feel awkward. That's why each card has both a lighter icebreaker and a deeper reflection question. You can ease in with something fun, then decide whether to dive deeper when it feels right. No pressure, just natural conversation that flows at its own pace.
The power of mindfulness: By using the framework of Holstee's 12 mindful themes, we help you explore big ideas through casual conversations. This approach makes personal growth feel like hanging out, not a chore.
How To Use It
How To Use It
👯♂️ With Friends
We've all been to dinner parties where the conversation never gets past work updates and weather. These cards change that. Pull one when conversation lulls or dedicate an evening to exploring questions together. You'll be amazed how quickly you'll find yourself saying, "I never knew that about you!"
🏠 Family Time
Create new family traditions or deepen existing ones. We learned more about our parents in two hours of using these cards than in the previous two years.
👩🏽💼 At Work
Move beyond water cooler talk. Great for off-sites, Zoom ice-breakers, or making meetings less snooze-worthy. The questions are designed to build real connections while keeping things office-appropriate.
💞 Date Night
Whether you're on your third date or celebrating your thirtieth anniversary, these questions help you discover new dimensions of each other. Consider using a card each week as a regular ritual to maintain that sense of curiosity and connection that keeps relationships fresh.
📝 Personal Reflection
Sometimes the person you need to reconnect with most is yourself. These cards make perfect journal prompts for deeper self-reflection when you're feeling lost or seeking clarity. They provide starting points for exploring your own thoughts, memories, and aspirations—like having coffee with your wisest self.

Conversation Starters
I’m a fan of asking questions to learn about people and the Holstee Relfection cards helped spur conversations I wouldn’t have had otherwise. I’ve given a few decks as gifts to friends who enjoy conversations. We don’t think about conversation as a skill we can improve but the Holstee cards will help. And you’ll learn a lot about then people you use it with and also the ones who don’t want to use it.
Reflection Cards
Bought one for me, one for my daughter and her family. we love them!
Gratitude
Thank you for sharing daily reflections - thoughtfully worded, varied in content, and genuine in tone.

How are Holstee Reflection Cards different from other conversation cards?
Most conversation cards give you one-size-fits-all questions that can feel either too shallow or too intense. Our two-question format and 5 play styles lets you read the room and choose to ease in or dive deep. Plus, they're organized around 12 mindful themes that actually matter in life, like resilience, creativity, and gratitude that let you explore personal growth in a fun and meaningful way. The beautiful abstract designs on the cards also form a collective artwork, adding a visual dimension that makes them coffee-table worthy.

These cards work best for ages 10 and up. Younger children can join in, but some questions might go over their heads.
