Have you ever asked your body what it actually wants?
Have you even asked it if it’s hungry or questioning what it really needs?
Our bodies are clever entities – they know what they need for energy, for endurance and overall performance. If you take the time to listen to your body’s hunger rather than your head you’ll find it has a lot of great suggestions.
Have you ever eaten fresh seasonal fruits or vegetables and felt bloated and lethargic? Have you ever had some fresh salmon or other fatty fish and wish you hadn’t? Assuming of course, you didn’t eat too much! Did that homemade muesli with coconut yogurt make you want to take a nap? Probably not.
Find out how to tune into your body with A Guide to Gentle Nutrition by Michelle Yandle and learn the nutrition advice that comes from a place of self love and gratitude and nourishes you from the inside out. With tips and tricks to get more of the good stuff this book will help guide you on your own health journey.

💬 Got Questions?
Resilience, Confidence & Emotions
What if my child or teen has anxiety, low confidence, or big emotions?
These tools are therapy-aligned and backed by positive psychology. They're used by families, therapists, and educators to help kids and teens build emotional strength and resilience. Not a replacement for therapy, but a fantastic support tool—especially when used consistently or alongside other supports.
Do they help break negative thinking or generational habits?
Yes—whether you’re 8 or 80, it’s never too late to start. These journals were created by a mum who wanted to give her kids what she never had: emotional tools that actually stick. They’re about small steps, everyday moments, and showing up for yourself.
Can adults use these too?
Absolutely. Our adult range is designed to help with mindset, resilience, and emotional wellbeing—whether you're parenting, teaching, healing, or simply needing more calm and clarity in your day. No fluff. Just science-backed support for real life.
Am I too old to start journaling or mindset work?
Never. You're not too old and it's not too late. Many of our customers are adults who are just now discovering how powerful these tools can be—for healing, growth and navigating everyday stress. One small, intentional step at a time is all it takes.
Product Fit & Use
What age is this best for?
- Kids (5–10): best with some adult guidance, but only you know your childs abilities
- Teens (11–16+): more independent use
- Adults (16+): self-guided tools for growth & mindset
If you're unsure, send us a message—we’re happy to recommend the right product for your needs.
My child isn’t a big writer—will they still engage?
Yes! These products are made to be flexible and fun. Some kids draw, some talk through the prompts, others run with it. There's no one right way—just consistent, supported use.
Can these be used together as a family?
Absolutely. Many of our kits and card sets are designed for connection. Whether it’s 5 minutes before bed or journaling side-by-side, it’s about creating space for reflection and emotional growth—for everyone involved.
