Gentle Pause | Self-Care Journaling Kit

DESCRIPTION

A gentle journaling kit for the quiet space between Christmas and New Year—to rest, reflect, and softly reset before the new year begins.

You know that in-between time when the rush is finally over? When the wrapping paper is cleared away and you're sitting with a cuppa, wondering how you actually feel about everything?

This kit is for that moment.

No hustle. No "new year, new you" pressure. Just 119 pages of cosy, nurturing resources to help you pause, breathe, and check in with yourself before January arrives.

HOW TO USE IT

Print at home or at a print shop on your favourite paper—cardstock for the ephemera, lighter weight for the journal pages.

Bind the pages or keep them loose.

Use for writing, reflecting, collaging, or simply sitting quietly with your thoughts.

There's no right way.

Just your way.
