Love Your Active Brain
I finished the first chapter of my book club's newest selection, A Book That Loves You: An Adventure in Self-Compassion. Diving into this beautiful book full of creative activities is so much fun. I included the introduction and chapter one for my first “assignment.” I removed some of the pages for a vision board project. I love that I can deconstruct this book!

Here are some of the things I read that inspired me:
We believe that interacting with paper can help us balance the bigger things in life.
Overthinking is your strength. The hyperactive jumps you make in your head are great for coming up with creative ideas. Not just for your work, but also when other people have a problem they can’t solve.
“He who fears he shall suffer, already suffers what he fears” - Michel de Montaigne
I loved this one so much that I decided to make a little image of it in Canva.

Purchase A Book That Loves You: An Adventure in Self Compassion. This is not a book you can borrow from the library because you tear out some pages to make creative and inspirational projects. It doesn’t work on Kindle either for that same reason.
