Activity journal, What it is and How to use it

Let’s talk about Nalmei’s Activity Journal, Today I - where journaling meets positivity on every page. Designed meticulously by a passionate psychologist and a designer, our Activity Journal isn’t just a journal for self-improvement—it’s your personal tool for cultivating happiness and creativity. Let’s dive into how you can maximize its potential and make it a meaningful part of your daily routine.

The Story Behind Nalmei’s Activity Journal

Imagine a journal born from the minds of two sisters, each with a unique blend of creativity and logic, words and art. Together, they’ve created a space where their distinct personalities harmonize, reflected in every aspect of this journal/ DIY planner. This Positive Psychology-based journal/planner is named Today I, the Burnt Toast edition, which embodies the resilience and the art of finding silver linings. It’s a tribute to the belief that every setback opens doors to new opportunities, much like the unexpected charm of a new journey.

This daily planner was explicitly made for kinaesthetic learners, people with ADHD and anxiety, or those who find it difficult to express their feelings in words, but they flow easier with a brush, paper, or activities. For whom physical Activity relieves stress and calms their mind.

  

Nalmei was made by us because we understand that

one size doesn't fit all. 

Journals and planners have become aimed at a specific audience in the market. We created Nalmei to reach a wider audience, regardless of whether you express yourself through words or art or are organized or more spontaneous. Nalmei is designed to be a lasting companion throughout time.

It remains as a constant reminder to be kinder to ourselves and look for the silver lining in a dark cloud.
