The Abundant Life Journal

From popular mental health advocate and lifestyle creative Anh Lin, this thirty-week guided journal offers intentional practices and activities for you to pause and celebrate the abundant life you already have

It's no secret that we are overworked, overstimulated, and stressed out. We long to fill our days with pursuits that bring us joy or peace, but too often, we barely scratch the surface on the tasks we have to do and miss out on doing the fun and life-giving things we want to do. But what if we could grasp that abundant life—right now?

Drawing from her own experience of healing from depression and surrendering the chase for "the good life," popular DIYer, lifestyle influencer, and mental health advocate Anh Lin created the Abundant Life Journal, which repeatedly sold out on her online store The Hooga Shop. Now with a refreshed design and newly added features, the journal invites readers to build a flourishing life filled with purpose and emotional soundness right where they are. Each of the thirty weeks includes an encouraging devotion, a Scripture verse, and a prayer, followed by fun activities that include:

• coloring pages
• origami
• recipes
• designed quotes
• guided reflections
• bullet journaling
• to-do lists

With a peace-filled and "girl, I'm with you" tone, this resource is a literary hug, an invitation for respite, and a chance to pause and celebrate the abundant life we already have.
