Thinking of You Week aims to facilitate this by encouraging us all to send seven cards during one week in&nbsp;September this year.&nbsp;<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-size: 13px;\">Cards are great to receive and especially so for those in need of a lift.&nbsp;It&#39;s been&nbsp;<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.blueeyedsun.co.uk\/blog\/scientists-prove-that-greeting-cards-are-good-for-your-mother\/\" style=\"font-size: 13px;\">scientifically proven<\/a><span style=\"font-size: 13px;\">&nbsp;that receiving a handwritten card makes people feel more special than receiving texts, emails or messages on social media.
