My Natural Recipes & Remedies Journal
A fill-in recipe book designed for the nutrition enthusiast and illustrated with love​​​​​​​
The inspiration for this book started about 5 years ago when my notebook full of miscellaneous scribbles on nutrition and natural living, started to look rather...chaotic. I was passionate about home remedies and learning more but I was struggling to keep all the amazing information that I was reading about organized. I noticed plenty of fill-in recipe books on the market, but none that emphasized natural remedies or nutrition. So when I couldn't find what I was looking for, I started dreaming about creating it myself! 
Striving to create a book that was both functional and beautiful, I created a series of original food illustrations using pen and ink combined with watercolor pencils. Vibrant and bursting with color, these patterns adorn the book cover and are woven into each section for positive, happy vibes while perusing your notes.
Although it has guided sections, this journal is completely blank for you to fill up with what's most pertinent to you. I believe that a healthy lifestyle is not a one-size-fits-all. What works for me, may not work for you...and that's ok! This journal is intended to be a reference tool that you can personalize to suit your specific needs. It is comprised of three main sections:

Nutrition Quicklists: Ideal for the avid note-taker, this section is organized for easy-to-reference lists on various topics including immune boosters, healthy alternatives, superfood benefits, favorite essential oil uses and more!

Natural Remedies: A two-page spread that encourages a holistic approach to wellness, allowing room for notes on nutrition and diet, as well as lifestyle, stress management and spiritual encouragement. Holds 45 remedies with a fill-in index at the start of the section.

Nourishing Recipes: Extra spacious two-page spreads for your favorite healthy recipes with easy cross-referencing to specific remedies. Holds 45 recipes with a fill-in index at the start of the section.
UPDATE: The crowdfunding campaign to fund the printing of the hardcover journals was unfortunately not a success. For the time being, this journal has been reformatted into a diy printable template that is now available in my Etsy shop.
