A new edition of Keri Smith's bestseller, with updated material
Think of Wreck This Journal as the anarchist's Artist's Way -- the
book for those who've always wanted to draw outside the lines but
were afraid to do it. For anyone who's ever wished to, but had
trouble starting, keeping, or finishing a journal or sketchbook
comes Wreck This Journal, an illustrated book featuring a
subversive collection of suggestions, asking readers to muster up
their best mistake - and mess-making abilities to fill the pages of
the book (and destroy them). Through a series of creatively and
quirkily illustrated prompts, acclaimed artist Keri Smith
encourages journalers to engage in "destructive" acts - poking
holes through pages, adding photos and defacing them, painting with
coffee, colouring outside the lines, and more - in order to
experience the true creative process. With Keri Smith's unique
sensibility, readers are introduced to a new way of art and journal
making, discovering novel ways to escape the fear of the blank page
and fully engage in the creative process.
This 100 page, lined 6x9 journal/diary is inspired by Tyra Hodge's
"A Wounded Daughter's Diary" book. You will feel inspired to write
through your struggles and success with this beautiful journal.
Create peace and calm for yourself with Mindful Colouring, which
includes a 64-page book and a 150-sheet paper block with mandala
designs and patterns to colour in. For hundreds of years, mandalas
have been a source of inspiration for those who have meditated on
their qualities. Here, Cassandra Lorius has brought together a
unique collection of mandalas inspired by different traditions,
from Hindu to Celtic, and explains the symbols contained within
each one and the symbolic meanings of the colours used. Each
mandala has a special theme to spark your creative flair, from love
and compassion to gratitude and success. You will learn about the
power of colour as a pathway to tap into your inner self, and
colouring-in has been shown to reduce stress levels: the process is
like meditating, which is known to have numerous health benefits.
The paper block includes 150 sheets of mandala designs and patterns
for you to colour in, allowing you to experiment with different
colourways, and each can be kept and framed as a creative keepsake.

In Walking, Henry David Thoreau talks about the importance of
nature to mankind, and how people cannot survive without nature,
physically, mentally, and spiritually, yet we seem to be spending
more and more time entrenched by society. For Thoreau walking is a
self-reflective spiritual act that occurs only when you are away
from society, that allows you to learn about who you are, and find
other aspects of yourself that have been chipped away by society.
This new edition of Thoreau's classic work includes annotations and
a biographical essay.
