Right Brain Planner

For the past twelve years I have published an annual Kit for creating a creative record of intention and story. For 2025—along with the resources I offer to my Ko-fi patrons—I will be publishing guides on a quarterly basis to help simplify the process of developing a right brain planning practice.

*This guide also includes (4) Quarterly Month-at-a-Glance Templates

[Chapters 📖 The Magic of Your Story Unfolding]

For this guide, I included 29 pages of content and reference materials about getting started with a right brain planning practice + 12 monthly journal pages with prompts + a quarterly month-at-a-glance page.

• The content serves as an introduction + overview of right brain planning.
• The monthly pages serve as a scaffolding for a right brain planning practice.

Right brain planning fosters self-compassion (instead of a system based on performance) because it prioritizes expression, your well-being and checking in with yourself; tracking your phases [energies, moods, progress] with nature’s seasons and the moon’s phases; tending to your Life Quad, nourishing your senses and noticing the details of the world around you.

Braveheart, a journal practice (jots on a calendar, collage, hand-written entries, doodles, etc.) helps us to know ourselves, and to heal and expand.

What we chronicle (and mentally process) provides us with snapshots of our needs, desires, worth and progress.

Putting pen-to-paper + dated entries (in whatever form that is doable) helps us to identify specific patterns, thoughts and habits within our cycles of living.

Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.

Viktor Frankl

Setting aside minutes of time creates a space between what is happening within us and in our living.

• A space where come to discover and know ourselves, Braveheart. 🩷
• A space where we experience the understanding and power to choose our response.

Within our choices and responses lies our growth and freedom, and the potential for new options.
