The Reality Coach is a tool to inspire and guide thoughts to enable change.

You can use the Reality Coach in a variety of different ways. The concept bridges our inner and outer realities; helping you to search within to imagine possibilities for change in the wider world. It uses metaphors to prompt thoughts and create space, giving you the means to consider options and providing oxygen for your creative sparks. It will challenge you to see beyond normalisations and to escape the limits of well-worn thought patterns.

As the internal mind-scape changes, can we gain new perspectives to transform the external world? Can we harness the power of our minds; imagining, then creating, alternative possibilities to meet ever shifting global challenges?

This book was conceived to accompany a deck of cards and can also be used as a standalone guide. It features the first volume of 24 cards including the hand-drawn illustrations and prompts to help create change. It also offers ideas to build your own deck of the Reality Coach cards.

The system behind the Reality Coach is three years in the making by internationally acclaimed artists Michael Burton and Michiko Nitta. Wide-ranging influences shape the system, including the study of other species (especially octopus and whales), neuroscience, design, storytelling, folklore, cartomancy, coaching and futurology practice.

So stretch your mind wide open and deal yourself new worlds and ways of thinking.

Unlock the endless potential of your imagination.

Share your discoveries to send ripples into the world to shift and shape realities.
