Day by Day Guided Journal: 100 Ways to Capture Memories & Create Your Own Story by Jess Conte Book Review

 

Day by Day Guided Journal is a beautiful journal designed by Jess Conte. There are fun activities broken down in four categories: check in, capture, create, reflect and grow. The check in section is designed to help you brainstorm and briefly write down your thoughts, focus on gratitude, and understanding self-care. The capture session contains fill in the blank and trivia style questions. The create section is artful coloring fun activities. The reflect and grow is meant to help us discovering our best self and we can reflect on our past and future. She encouraged readers to not have your phone close to you while you are having me time and live distraction free just for a few moments daily, if you need to. You can use this book whenever you need and the journal is created to allow you to go your own pace. 

 

 

 

I liked how she shared her own story in some of the activities. She explained how she is Australian and moved to the United States after marrying her husband. They are both have a social media presence and create content. She encourages readers to write down their own story. One of my favorite activities was taking the time to look around and draw things that make us happy, remind us of home, that we love, and that is colorful. I also liked the goal section and breaking it down in dream big, work hard, and small steps. This is beneficial to diving into what our dreams are and taking a step towards them. Another favorite thing was writing a letter to our future self and this can help us to figure out who we are. I immensely loved the positive affirmation and how this can assist us in reminding ourselves who we are and what we need to hear daily. I would recommend this wonderful book to anyone who is seeking a creative journal to find out who they are and they are wanting a break from the stress of the world. This book would be an excellent gift to any women in your life.
