Daily Creative: The 5-Minute Habit to Rewire Your Brain

This energetic journal is filled with fun five-minute creative practices proven to spark creativity, boost happiness, and decrease stress.

Everyone has creativity within them, an inner aliveness—it’s the unique way that you synthesize and express your experience of the world around you. But creativity requires nourishment and practice, just like our muscles require exercise. Enter Daily Creative: a daily mini-workout for your creative brain!

Featuring more than 50 creative exercises, this colorful and encouraging journal offers:

• Prompts for sketching, puzzling, doodling, free writing, and more.
• A daily creative practice that can be done in five minutes; no specialty tools needed beyond a pen or pencil and markers or colored pencils.
• Highlights of the specific advantages of each activity to guide you on a journey of discovery.

With a vibe of Wreck This Journal meets Two Minute Mornings, this artfully crafted prompted journal is designed to help non-creatives (or anyone who thinks they are not creative) cultivate a creativity habit, discover their innate creative potential, and unlock a state of play.

CREATIVITY FOR EVERYONE: This journal isn't just for creatives—it's designed to help everyone discover their innate creativity so they can experience the scientifically proven benefits of creative play, including improving memory, sparking innovation, sharpening problem-solving, reducing stress, and more.

MINIMAL MATERIALS REQUIRED: The sky’s the limit if users want to bring paint, collage, or stickers to into play, but the only tools a journaler needs to complete these prompts is a pen or pencil and some markers or colored pencils. 

GREAT GIFT: As a present for a creative-minded loved one, or a self-purchase for your inner artist, this journal is packed with thoughtful and helpful prompts to get your creativity flowing. It makes a great gift for art and design students, recent graduates, teens, moms, dads, retirees, or anyone who can use some encouragement to share their magic with the world.
