The July cover continues the hand-drawn, nature-inspired style from the previous months, while bringing something a little different to your pages. This month’s wreath is made up of a cluster of overlapping, imperfect circles and simple leaves, creating a soft and organic shape that still feels balanced and calm 🌿.

Journaling Prompts for July

July often brings a mix of energy—for some it’s mid-year holidays and summer sun, for others it marks the heart of winter and a time to slow down. Wherever you are in the world, here are some thoughtful prompts to help guide your journaling:

• What do you want to focus on or grow in the second half of the year?
• Where do you feel most like yourself right now? How can you spend more time there?
• Describe a moment that brought you peace recently.
• What would make this month feel nourishing?
• How are you different now than you were six months ago?

You can use one prompt per week or sprinkle them throughout your journal as needed.

Tips for Planning & Journaling in July

• Reflect and adjust: If you set goals earlier in the year, take some time to reflect on what still feels meaningful and what needs to shift.
• Create gentle structure: If your routine changes in July, consider creating a weekly rhythm that supports flexibility but still gives your days shape.
• Embrace simplicity: Let your journal be a calm space. A few meaningful pages are often more valuable than filling every spread.
• Use your cover as a pause point: Before diving into your trackers or lists, spend a moment with your monthly cover page. Let it be a creative ritual that marks your transition into a new month.
