Readers may recognize The Mindfulness Project, a platform for teaching and spreading health and happiness through mindfulness exercises. They do this through a variety of workshops and online programs. In this easy to carry book, The Mindfulness Project wants readers to learn that they have the potential to be creative and mindful by paying attention to what is happening here and now and writing or drawing about that awareness.

The book includes journaling suggestions and ample space for doodling among the many exercises. For example, the drawing of a simple tea cup encourages the reader to use all of their senses: smell the aroma, taste the flavor, feel the temperature, enjoy the tea mindfully, and even decorate the mug when finished thinking and writing about the experience. Access to a 25 minute guided online meditation furthers the experience.
