Hand-illustrated and full of playful wisdom!
The world is full of WOWs. WOWs are happening all the time in every single day. Great wows. Discouraging wows. Miraculous wows. Frightening wows. Exciting wows. So many wows that they can be impossible to take in.
I’ve always liked the IDEA of journaling and I’ve never managed to actually do it for long. I know the power of noticing the nuances of every day, especially taking time to notice what I’m grateful for. And yet, I never seemed to find a way to sustain a daily practice.
This journal, inspired by the work of Tiffany Han, invites a daily appreciation of your experience and what lights you up. Take 3 minutes at the end of the day to practice building awareness, delight & gratitude into ALL of your days. You’ll be amazed by what you notice.
“There is no joy without gratitude.” Brené Brown
Ever feel like your life is run by your To Do list? Ever feel like your value, even who you are, is based on what and how much you do?
Octabusy lives in The Sea of Doing and is positively sure that love goes to the one who does the most...and she does the most. She is also stressed. And tired.
After an unexpected visit to The Sea of Being, she learns that there is another way.
Each page of this playful fable is a hand-made, mixed media collage that reminds readers of all ages to practice being in their doing. And sometimes, to have the mindful discipline to do nothing.
Please indicate if you’d like me to sign the book “To” anyone!
