Celebrate Chicago and Exquisite Journaling

Nobody seems to know exactly why people started calling Chicago “The Windy City”. Maybe it was because of Chicago’s windy weather coming off of Lake Michigan or maybe it was a metaphorical jab at its supposedly boastful politicians.

Relaxing Coloring─Awakening the Knowledge Within

Janet Conner’s spiritual book Writing Down Your Soul has led to this adult coloring book and guided art journal, full of inspiring prompts and coloring pages to help you reach deep within yourself and connect to the divine. The result? You not only get to color a beautiful picture, but also create a beautiful life.

A peaceful space to reach into yourself and discover your truth. In Writing Down Your Soul, Janet Conner introduced tools to teach readers how to connect to the voice within, where soul knowledge and spiritual breakthroughs occur: "If you want to engage in a vibrant conversation with the wisdom that dwells just a hair below your conscious awareness, write. Write every day, at approximately the same time, with passion, honesty, and the intention of speaking with and listening to the voice within." As a natural extension and follow-up to Writing Down Your Soul, here is a companion coloring book and inspirational journal that offers space for the flow of creative self-exploration.

An adult coloring book full of writing prompts, coloring pages, and space for doodles. Structured around 22 key questions to ignite the imagination, such as "When I look out, what do I see?" and "If I could create the perfect gate to my extraordinary life, what would it look like?" The Soul Discovery Coloring Book invites readers to:

• Noodle: with silence, reflection, and staring off into space, allow images to come
• Doodle: not drawing to replicate, but allowing the picture to flow out of you
• Color: allowing the colors to choose you
• Scribble or soul write: scribbling and journaling because when we soul write, we write fast and messy to get ahead of our conscious mind

If you enjoy guided journals, motivational books, and inspirational books like A Book that Takes Its Time, True You, or Meera Lee Patel’s Made out of Stars, then you’ll love the Soul Discovery Coloring Book.

Decompress Your Stress

Anxious Art is for readers and doodlers seeking relief from anxiety and stress through meditative, creative processes.

What if we took our stress and used it to create art that brings us peace?

A 2016 study at Drexel university that examined the effects of creative activity on reducing levels of the stress hormone cortisol discovered that “45 minutes of art making…resulted in statistically significant lowering of cortisol levels.” We all know cortisol is the stress hormone, so grab a pen or pencil and let the meditations and writing prompts in this mindfulness journal take you on a calming journey to a healthier, happier mind.

T.S. Eliot once said, “Anxiety is the handmaiden of creativity,” but if he had this creative journal during times of worry, he surely would have said creativity was the handmaiden to peace. With this friendly, calming companion, you will find that you are much more present in the here and now.

A unique guided journal that will calm and inspire: When used as self-expression, creativity can allow us to take part in what psychologists call “sublimation,” or the transformation of negative or socially unacceptable impulses into socially acceptable or even beautiful creations. Anxious Art offers inventive prompts, art projects, and affirmations to inspire artistic activities that distract from feelings of distress and anxiety. As you experience this transformative guided journal, you will work with:

• Lyrical affirmations that build self-confidence and reduce fear
• Therapeutic writing exercises that root you in the present and spark joy
• Doodling that calms your emotions
• Guided breathing exercises that bring you into the present moment

Fans of Wreck This Journal, Tiny Buddha’s Worry Journal, or I Am Her Now, will love the calming benefits of Anxious Art.

A coloring book that brings back the whimsy and delight of the olden days, when more often than not it was the maiden who slayed the dragon, and the heads of tyrants were carried off at the end of a pike.

For both the good days and the difficult ones, this comforting guided journal helps manage pain and overwhelming stress by utilizing hope, gratitude, joy, and mindfulness.

Based on scientific research in neuroplasticity and created from a personal place in the author’s life, Mindful Intentions is designed to address the unique needs of people living with chronic illness or with chronic pain. This book is carefully organized into ten sections to provide comfort as well as teach the tools to build resiliency—the ability to survive what seems devastating, as well as the ability to move through the challenges of daily life. Creative prompts and engaging questions provide space for private reflection, and pain-reducing activities help bring levity and kindness to your life. There are also inspirational quotes sprinkled throughout to guide your journey through the book, and included at the back is a list of helpful resources.

In both lighter moments and in more challenging circumstances, use this journal as a reminder to take a deep breath and find the strength and peace in your own life.

A celebration of Oregon’s natural beauty, recreational delights, and quirky charms showcasing thirty-two scenes from every corner of the state, this coloring book provides hours of entertainment and relaxation. Bring your creative touch to everything from bikes to bridges to Bigfoot, from forests to food trucks to flora and fauna, from Crater Lake to Cannon Beach to the Cascades, and from Powell’s Books to the Pendleton Round-Up to the Painted Hills.
