How I Shuffle My Cards, and Why

I have a somewhat unusual way of shuffling tarot cards, and it's primarily because I have medical issues which prevent normal flat-to-the-table shuffling. Several years ago, my left arm suffered an injury that required physical therapy to correct. Since then, I've had difficulty shuffling even standard-sized playing cards, like Bicycle cards, the flat-to-the-table way. With an even more recent injury to my left elbow, the traditional method of shuffling is even more difficult because my left hand now lacks the strength required to hold the cards for shuffling the traditional way.
