I am very excited to tell you that I have designed a range of well-being journals and notebooks. Currently they are all available in A4 size only but hopefully next week they will be available in A5 too.
I have long since extolled the values of daily journaling and a lot of thought went into this selection, with the hopes that what I have designed might help some people take their first steps towards improved mental health.
Currently the journals are only available in A4 size but by this time next week there should be A5 versions available as well.
Shall we take a little look at the options then?
My Little Book of Big Ideas
This one is pretty much a notebook, with pages divided into lined and graph paper. If you are anything like me, there is always so much in your head that you need to write stuff down – this is ideal for those moments.
Bullet Journal
For those of you that love bullet journaling, this is a simple dot grid journal, free for your own designs and layouts. It was the lure of bullet journaling that lured me in to the planning community. I didn’t stick with bullet journaling, mainly because my attempts were woeful, but I still love the way it looks and I love seeing other people’s layouts.
The Little Book of Recipes
This one was born out of necessity. All the recipes I had torn out of magazines, all the recipes I had scribbled down from the TV or saved as screenshots from the internet in my phone, all the family favourites that we eat on repeat – they all needed a home. So a journal with spaces for ingredients and methods was needed. I will get a lot of use from this one. It makes a great gift if you have a child heading off to university later this year. You could add all their favourite meals so they can enjoy a taste of home while they are away.
Dream Journal
A journal to record your dreams. How often do you have a really lucid, really interesting dream which fades into nothing as the day moves on? Now you can quickly jot down the details when you wake up and come back to them whenever you want. Is there a pattern? What is playing on your mind while you sleep? What do your dreams mean?
Gratitude Journal
The benefits of living a grateful life are well documented. It definitely helps with living a more mindful life and being aware of the world around us. This one has pages for both morning and evening gratitude. Studies have shown that observing and expressing gratitude can have both physical and mental benefits.
Wake Up, Wind Down Daily Journal
This was my first idea. A journal to help set your intentions for the day ahead and then to reflect and clear your mind at the end of the day. I am all in favour of encouraging positive mental health and wellbeing and this journal is a step towards that.
Guided Wellbeing Journal
This is the one I am most proud of and probably the one I will use most myself. It’s also the cheapest, for those of us who are on a budget. (Pretty sure that’s everyone at the moment). Each week has four pages – a planner page, a notes page, a habit tracker and a reflections weekly round-up page. If you are brand new to journaling then this would be the one to start with – all the boxes are there for you, you just decide what you are writing down.
There will be more to come. As previously mentioned, the A5 versions will be live soon. If you want to check out the whole range on one page, click here.
If there is a particular journal or notebook that you would like to see but you can’t find anywhere, let me know and together we might be able to make it happen!
