Journals

What are you carrying right now?

Eight guided journals about your own pattern, each one a different angle on the same core idea — notice what is running underneath, so you can choose what runs your life. And one to give to someone else. Start with whichever line below sounds the most like you this week.

I keep repeating the same pattern and I cannot see it.

Notice what repeats. Choose a month, 30 days or a full 90.

I know what I want. I am not doing it.

Turn a someday, or a drifting day, into one small step at a time.

I say yes when I mean no, and I swallow what I mean to say.

Hear what you have been holding back, three lines at a time.

I cannot let go, and I cannot enjoy what I have.

Loosen your grip, then notice what is already here.

I am harder on people, and on myself, than I want to be.

Trace a judgment back to what it is protecting.

I want to give someone more than a card.

Buying one as a gift?

A guided journal is a thoughtful, low-pressure gift for anyone who could use a nudge to slow down and notice their own patterns. Several titles are available in hardcover as well as paperback and ebook — check the format options on the Amazon listing linked from each journal page before you order.

Not sure where to start? The Mindful Pattern goes deepest. The Pattern Interrupt is the same idea at a faster pace. The Fork in the Day and The Open Hand each take a single question and turn it into a month-long practice. The Life I Keep Postponing, The Direction I Am Choosing, The Things I Don't Say, The Abundance I Overlook, and The Things I Judge each take a single question and turn it into an eight-week practice, one small task or one honest line at a time.

Reading from India? The first nine journals are now available on Pothi with local shipping. The Pattern Interrupt, The Fork in the Day, and The Open Hand can also be read on Notion Press, and The Fork in the Day and The Open Hand are additionally on Amazon.in and Flipkart — see each journal’s page for the exact links.
