Reawakening your connection to gratitude may help you feel more anchored in the present and support the way you work towards your goals and wellbeing over time. One Lap Around the Sun is a guided self‑help journal that combines gratitude, imagery and seasonal practices to support ongoing reflection and intentional habit‑building. To help you get the most out of a short, daily practice, this journal pairs gratitude prompts with guided imagery. Research suggests that imagery can support changes in thoughts and performance by engaging the visual system and other senses, which may increase the likelihood of continuing to engage in behaviours that support your wellbeing over time.

Buy Spring JournalBefore you purchase a season, consider this...
If you commit to buying all four seasons upfront, you will pay less overall than purchasing each season separately.
Why is this?
Printing a full‑year, daily gratitude and self‑development journal in high‑quality colour is more expensive to produce than a single seasonal journal..
The solution
The seasons are also available to purchase separately. If you are not ready to invest in the yearly journal, you can try one season at a lower cost. Each stand‑alone seasonal journal is 7 x 10 inches and provides more space to fill in your daily prompts..
The trade-off
If you later decide to continue your daily gratitude practice by buying the remaining seasons one by one, the total cost will be higher than purchasing One Lap Around the Sun upfront. For reference, One Lap Around the Sun is A4 in size and has slightly less space to write your responses to the daily prompts.
