(Supporting members ship free. You can become a supporting member here.)

This set includes two sections, the Journaling section, Journaling as a tool in the creation of a life, and the Love and Gratitude section, The Heron Dance Book of Love and Gratitude, plus one set of watercolor paper, one set of lined paper and a binder to house all four and up to three other sections you may add in the future.

The binder:

  • Landscape three ring binder. 14 x 9.25 inches.

  • Holds up to 150 sheets (300 pages) of our premium 8.5 × 11 paper. The watercolor paper is 40% thicker than the 100lb text weight Mohawk Superfine that the sections and blank paper utilize, so the binder holds a little less than 300 pages if you include watercolor paper.

  • The premium writing or watercolor paper is designed to fit the binder and comes with pre-punched holes.

  • Each section is 40 sheets (80 pages) so the binder can accommodate up to seven sections.

The Journaling Section:

  • Meditation and quiet before writing.

  • The times of your life of greatest peace and happiness, and what they have in common.

  • Accessing and understanding the image your deeper wisdom offers and using it as a guide in the development of your life.

  • Reading old journals to understand recurring patterns.

  • The potentials of earlier roads not taken.

  • Dialogue with your future self, with your creative work, with your still point.

  • Full color art. Eighty pages of excerpts from my art journal.

The Heron Dance Book of Love and Gratitude Section:

  • Gratitude as a philosophy of life and as a spiritual practice.

  • What we express gratitude for grows in significance and power in our lives.

  • Full color art.

From the introduction:

Living with gratitude is, I’ve learned, a matter of paying attention, of surrender. As Len Soucy said in our interview, it requires conscientious effort to try. It is a philosophy of life, a spiritual practice. It should be easy. I think it may be for some people. For me though it has required effort. I learned that by watching people who seem happy, particularly older people, and particularly one woman in her nineties . . .

Gratitude and happiness in life seem to go together. When you find one, you tend to find the other. And it is, generally speaking, a deliberate choice. If we have reasonable health and enough to eat and a roof over our heads, there are life-changing rewards to be found in shifting our focus to the beauty and mystery that surrounds.

Part of my gratitude practice has been the accumulation of favorite quotes on the subject. They are kind of a savings reserve against hard times -- times of discouragement or frustration. I share them with you in the hopes that they might add to your life what they have to mine.
