Relaxing Designs Self-care Journey

The Relaxing Designs Twelve-Month Self-Care Journey is an invitation to spend an entire year reconnecting with you.

Created by Wendy Buchanan, this guided journey encourages you to slow down and explore who you are, what you need, what you want for your future and how you can create more space for your own wellbeing.

Rather than trying to change everything at once, the journey unfolds gently across 12 meaningful monthly themes—Pause, Nurture, Notice, Nourish, Protect, Restore, Balance, Believe, Dream, Action, Gratitude and Reflect. Each month focuses on a different aspect of self-care, personal growth and self-discovery.

Throughout the journey, you are encouraged to draw, colour, write, reflect, dream and create. The activities give you space to explore your emotions, recognise patterns, establish boundaries, practise self-compassion, rediscover dreams, celebrate progress and consider what you would like the next chapter of your life to look like.

This isn't a challenge to complete perfectly or another list of things you should be doing.

It's a year to move at your own pace.

A year to listen to yourself.

A year to recognise how far you've come.

And most importantly, a year to make yourself part of your own priorities.
