Product: Mindfulness Guides

Live with intention.

One of the core offerings included in the monthly Holstee Membership is an actionable Mindfulness Guide (view digital sample here). Guides include: soul-searching questions, meditation guides, discussion topics, deep dives into the science of positive psychology, wisdom from ancient philosophers (and some contemporary ones), and monthly challenges to help people put thought into action.

For two years, I researched, wrote, edited, designed, and ran production on 20+ guides. A challenging labor of love from the whole team, and something I will always be proud to have brought to life each month.

In December of each year, we would offer an extended Reflection Journal, a 36-page booklet packed with questions, activities, and exercises to help individuals look back on the past year.

I worked alongside my team to lead design, content, and production on this journal which guides the user through an annual review of their highs and lows, accomplishments, relationships, intentions, and personal growth.

Specs: A two-color, 12-page booklet design x 22 months + two 36-page journals. Saddle-stitched and packed with a lot of love.

Process: Kind of like writing a workbook every month for two years. Or a small magazine. Or developing a curriculum. Really, we aimed to create something meaningful, that would actually help people slow down, reflect on what is important to them, and hopefully feel a little lighter and more grounded in their lives.
