Positive mindfulness journal swap

This swap is meant for people who love writing, art, and just being adventurous! The point of the swap is to exchange positivity from different parts of the world.

For this swap you should have a A5 size notebook/diary (15cmx20cm or around those dimensions). You should fill the book with 25 of the following topics. Each topic should cover at least 2 sides.

1. Describe what you see right now as you write your journal
2. What’s that “something” that’s been on your mind lately and what keeps it in your mind?
3. What do you believe in (karma, magic, art, love. Keep this non-religious please)? Draw/doodle it
4. If magic were around you or in you, what would it look like, feel like, taste like, smell like, sound like?
5. Stick a photo of someone you met today. What did y’all talk about? What did you learn from them?
6. If you could rewrite some part of your life, what would it be and why? Draw/doodle what you’d like your dream life to have been.
7. Do something fun. Take a photo. Write about it.
8. Share a pet story. Take a photo/draw/doodle a scene from it.
9. Draw a tree and stick 1 leaf from 5 different trees (totally 5 leaves) on it.
10. Go wild. This is your page to do whatever you want on it.
11. Write something for the reader of this journal to know about you. It can be anything that gives them a glimpse of who you are.

13. What do you do to relax and unwind? Write it out. Draw/doodle it out or post a photo.
14. Stick 5 ticket stubs (It can be anything- a movie, local fair, a train ticket, a bus journey, etc.) and write small write-ups about where they’re from, what you were doing to get this ticket, what made you want to stick it. Is there a memory attached?

16. Let it out. Rant away. This is your rant page. Make a mixed media art piece about it.
17. What’s your comfort food? Share the recipe. A photo would be great too!
18. Write 5 quotes that have had some impact on you on 5 different pages in the journal. You can add context to it, if you’d like. Decorate the quotes.
19. Stick 3 different things that can be touched and has texture (e.g. seashells, sand, a pebble, swatches of fabric that feel nice, a feather, leaves, etc.) Please don’t hurt anything while obtaining these objects. Pick up what you find fallen on the floor.
