The Four of Swords
This card has been coming up a lot for my clients lately:

The Four of Swords is usually a message that you need to rest, relax, and take some time for yourself. Ideally, that time should be spent in silent meditation. Turn off your phone, turn off your computer, take off your iPod, and sit down in a quiet place where you won't be disturbed. Allow your mind to go blank. This is very difficult at first because we're conditioned to fill our minds with endless thoughts and worries - "monkey chatter". As these thoughts come to you, don't fight them - greet them, thank them and let them go on their way. Just let them pass right through your mind. Yes, it's hard to learn how, but you CAN do it!
You will be astonished what five or ten minutes of silent meditation every day will do for your well-being. Not only is the process de-stressing, it's refreshing and inspiring. My clients - at least, the ones who persevere in this - come back to me and tell me it's changed their lives tremendously. They are far more peaceful and more in touch with their inner wisdom. Try it!
