Life has been difficult over the last couple of years and times are still tough - here's one way you can help yourself....

If, unfortunately, you're feeling down, or stressed, writing a journal can really help. Expressing your thoughts in a safe, confidential place, can help regain a bit of balance and perspective.

Writing a journal, or "journaling" as it's referred to these days, is a recognised approach for dealing with stress. Follow the link below to find ideas on using journaling for depression, anxiety and stress:

And if you decide journaling might be for you, why not treat yourself to a beautiful, unique notebook in which to capture your thoughts?

Either way, I hope you feel better soon.

Beautiful notebooks, by design, made in Cornwall

I love books, particularly notebooks! I write lists for everything, both at work and at home and scribble notes and ideas down all the time. Some time ago I started to get really bored with the standard off-the-shelf type of notebook available. I also, by accident, discovered I find it more relaxing to write notes on coloured paper than white paper. But when I looked for a note book with coloured pages, I really struggled to find one that appealed. So I decided to make my own. I booked myself on a bookbinding course and was completely bitten by the book-making bug! I now make a variety of types, all with an eye to colour and attractive design, and most with coloured pages.

Lockdown help - you can order gifts from me and I will wrap and send directly to the recipient - just send me a note via the "Contact" button and we can agree what type of gift this is, the appropriate wrapping, and any messages you would like included - can be done in calligraphy if you'd like.
There may be a small additional fee for specific occasion wrapping.
