How to Start an Art & Soul Journal
Join the Starthistle & Quartz community and receive my 365 Art & Soul Journal with Prompts
Somewhere between your to-do lists and big dreams, your creative soul is whispering: “Can we play now?”
That’s where the Art & Soul Journal comes in.
This isn’t your typical journal. It’s a gentle, creative, meditative practice—a space to stay present with yourself while expressing what's in your heart, through simple, soulful drawing prompts. Whether you're an experienced artist or just starting out, this journal will meet you right where you are.
What Makes This Journal So Special?
The Art & Soul Journal includes 365 creative prompts designed to help you:
Relax and de-stress
Reignite your imagination
Nurture your inner artist
Explore your emotions gently and playfully
It's beautifully designed, filled with inspiring quotes, and encourages you to show up as you are. Use your favorite supplies or just a simple pencil—this is your space to create, connect, and reflect.
How I Use My Journal
I journal in the evenings, usually with a cup of magnesium cocoa and a cozy playlist or podcast in the background. I lay out my art supplies (I love making it feel like “playtime”) and flip open to a prompt that sparks something in me.
One of my favorites? “Draw your soul.”
It changes every time I revisit it—and I love that.
How to Begin Your Practice
There are no rules—only invitations. You can:
Start at the beginning and move through day by day
Flip through and find a prompt that speaks to you
Match your journal entry to today’s date (for example, June 3rd is Day 155—try responding to prompt #155!)
The journal is here to guide you, not pressure you. Begin anywhere, and let the journey unfold.
