Journaling

January in my Unraveling Journal

Hello Lovely.

I’ve been coming along with my unraveling journal slowly this year. To be honest, I’m working through a heap of monthly prompts I created for a course I’ve been working on for the last three years. I just want to see what works and how everything flows. And in that process, I’ve been filming videos and writing up the actual course content. I’m quite excited that I finally started creating content for this course. It’s just been so long since its inception and I’m glad to finally be sharing my unraveling process in this way.

So I’ve been filling up my journal slower than usual, which is why I’m sharing my January pages in March.

It’s funny too that even though I knew what my word (and supporting words) were even before the year began, I still feel a bit lost as to what my intentions are and what direction I want to go with my life. That’s another reason why it’s taken me so long to actually do my January pages. I have never started a new year feeling this uncertain before. And interestingly enough, it doesn’t make me nervous. Honestly, I feel really good about 2023, which is me putting blind faith in the Universe that everything is going to work out in my favor as it should.

Uncertainty and hope—that’s the And Space for you.

Anyway, I took a deep dive into my word HEART in these first few pages of my journal. I really do enjoy having a word this year that can mean so many things and that can also be a visual representation in my journal. A heart is a symbol, a shape, an organ. It holds emotions and represents love and joy. A heart can break and it can heal. And there are just endless layers to it that I just think is so fitting for me this year.

The course I’m working on doesn’t revolve around my word though, only in the first month do I focus on it. So I’m hoping to follow along with Ali Edwards’ One Little Word class to keep me accountable to it.

But for now, I’ll leave you with my January pages in my unraveling journal.

xx Tiffany

Finally got my hands on a copy of this book! I love the concept of these types of art books and I know that Sabrina’s books pioneered them all. I would love to create something like this. I enjoyed reading this one. To think this book is like 25 years old is insane.

Journals—present and future. I’ve been taking sto Journals—present and future.

I’ve been taking stock of my journaling lately, and it’s looking a lot different from how it used to be three years ago. I’ve been writing a whole lot more and doing less of the artsy-crafty part, which is totally fine. My documenting flows in phases, and this one has been all about the words.

But every so often, I’ve had the nagging pull to be more creative—to go back to my art journaling roots and even my scrapbooking roots. And the feeling would just nag and nag at me, but I haven’t been acting on it at all. I “try” but don’t actually follow through. And with all of the things I want to do swirling around in my head, I become so overwhelmed over all of the different journals I’m keeping (and trying to keep), that I fall stagnant and do not a damn thing.

I think I'm in that phase right now. I've been keeping up with my journals alright, but I have so many ideas for future journals that I want to get to right now, but I haven't even started on any of them. Then when I take stock of it all, I get so overwhelmed! Journaling shouldn't feel overwhelming lol. And I honestly just think it all boils down to the fact that I don't have enough time to do all the things in my day—and I always want to do ALL THE THINGS!

Does anyone else get like this?

Anyway, here are my journals—some are in progress and some I'm just setting up to use for next year! And there are others I still want to make.

And honestly, I kind of can't wait to start the new ones. I'm a mess. 😆

I have a pile of art books that I haven't read yet, and I keep buying more. A lot of the time, I want them just to look through them, not actually read them, but I'm challenging myself to start reading them! They are amazing sources of inspiration, and honestly, it helps me get ideas of my own. I finished @quietnoticing's book the other day. I read it on a long train ride, and what a beautiful book! I absolutely love her art, and her Polaroid photos are simply stunning. I love the way the visuals helped tell her story.
