I heard someone say it was like creating a museum of all the things that you love and that make you 'you', and I've been keeping one ever since.

it has a slightly nebulous definition and might not be all that revolutionary of a concept but it consistently brings joy to my life. i use it as a collection of quotes & lines from film, books, music, and any other form of art and writing that resonated with me. sometimes i’ll just write down the quote, other times i’ll expand on why it’s meaningful to me. but now i have a collection of other people’s ideas that make me feel seen and speak to me to look at whenever i need it. using a physical journal also makes it more tangible, like i’m actually holding the ideas in my hands.

It's pretty much a journal to record quotes that you found beautiful, important or interesting. No pressure to actually journal your innermost thoughts; just keep a log of quotes that, when looked at, reveal from a slant perspective who you are, what you care about. Will also attune you to the rhythms of language, I bet.

I make photo albums of the polaroids I take of my friends, work, and travels. I love having a physical object that can bring back so many memories. Like many, reading the book The Artist's Way helped me find ways to connect to myself and my art. I adopted the practice of "Morning Pages" which is writing three pages in a journal stream of consciousness style to empty your mind of cluttered thoughts before you get into your day. This has helped my anxiety levels and enhanced my focus so much. I love reading them back after enough time has passed to reflect on what has worried me and remind myself that all things must pass.

I've been making my own at home a lot lately, but I wanna level up my chai game - I feel like my recipe is missing something. Anyone got any ideas on how to make it better?

you can get them brand new or find them in mostly perfect condition second hand on sites like ebay, and I love them so so much!!! they work like a ring-binder crossed with a wallet, and you can get all kinds of inserts for them. my favourite thing about them is how customisable they are; no two filofaxes are the same!

it's not a very niche thing to do but one of my favourite genres of snack is cheese + random food. I'm particularly fond of cheese and apple or cheese and a digestive biscuit, but the possible combinations are endless! it's always fun to get experimenting and try out new mixes, I'd really recommend giving it a go :)
