Bound to Journal

Your heart knows the answers. But, you have to quiet your mind to hear the questions.

Are you ready to live a life with new purpose and meaning?
Not sure what’s next, but know that you’re meant to do more?
Does your current mindset allow you to see new possibilities?
Where would you like to see yourself in a year?

Let’s work together

You’ll reap a list of benefits from our not-so-ordinary journaling techniques while relaxing your mind, reducing your stress, increasing your memory, and stimulating new ideas to help you move forward.

MINI ABOUT ME - DESKTOP

Picture this… A quiet evening at home, a few glasses of wine, and a notebook. It was our first New Year’s Eve together that we discovered the benefits of journaling.

Journaling wasn't new to us; we’d journaled daily at home and work. However, we’d both just relocated to a new state, changed jobs, started our new life together, and were healing emotionally from our past relationships.

That New Year's Eve there was something magical that occurred forever changing our mindset.

As we journaled, the wonderful experiences and events of the past year triggered more memories. We could barely write fast enough to keep up with our thoughts. When we exhausted that list, we moved on to setting our goals for the coming year. The goals we wrote, which might once have felt unattainable, no longer seemed like impossible dreams.

Grab a pen and download our FREE one-page journal and we’ll show you how a few simple prompts can help you discover the benefits of journaling.

It’s a strange feeling to get to the point in your career where you still enjoy it, but you're no longer chasing the next promotion. There’s that nagging feeling like there’s something more to do, to improve, or to embrace. You’re comfortable with what you do, but want to continue learning, spark new interests, and keep your curiosity ignited.

Perhaps the activities that kept you overly busy have changed. Maybe you’re finally experiencing more free time, an emptier nest, or possibly a little expendable income. Just existing without engagement isn’t an option for you but relaxing is important, too. Instead of looking down the road at retirement as an end, you’re ready to start embracing the possibilities for your ‘second wave’ of living.

What are you waiting for? If making decisions or setting new goals seems daunting, our journaling techniques and suggestions may be just what you need to help clarify and kick-start the process. In fact, many times just starting the process – allowing yourself to dream with a goal – triggers a euphoric reaction filling your imagination with possibilities.

Meet the Founders

Fall of 2010 – after a couple phone conversations and a 15 hour first date – we knew we’d be sharing the second half of our journey with someone who made life magical.

We enjoyed the busy exciting life we had while building our careers, but the pace was grueling. We worked full-time and multiple part-time jobs while continuing our education. Work demands and unhealthy home lives magnified the need for change.

Oddly – though several states apart and unaware that the other existed – we were both initiating steps to shift to a simpler, more meaningful life. We biked, spent more time in nature, found self-help resources, dug out our journals, and initiated the necessary steps toward a more physically and mentally healthier life.

Had it not been for a well-timed keystroke, we would never have met.

Now, we focus on what’s possible, the steps – even the smallest ones – that each of us can make toward the vision we hold for our lives. We celebrate each day with the confidence that life only gets better when you’re coming from a place of hope and gratitude. An extra dose of creativity and humor always helps.

Integrating journaling, essential oils, and our love of nature into our teaching and daily lives has enriched our experiences.

Learning and sharing is a contagious cycle that keeps us excited to start each day supporting wellness through journaling and essential oils."

Bound to Journal and Redsage™ LLC are the products of our journey.

Meet Lisa

Teacher of littles and bigs. Lover of folk art and cultural containers. I’m a reluctant cook and indoor plant killer. Projects, projects, projects! Obsessed with planning and creating. My numerous lists and stickie notes entertain Allen.

I rejuvenate in natural settings, but landscape designs, lime green plants, and feng shui influences provide a mental challenge and balanced sense of order. I cherish the quiet sanctuary of home, but keep travel bags packed for any opportunity to travel. Allen’s taught me to relax, laugh at myself, and embrace what I consider imperfections. I know joy.

Meet Allen

I like a good grilled burger. I’m a career service manager, fly-fisherman at heart (slowly converting to fishing from a boat), greenhorn inflatable kayaker, hobby bicyclist, lover of mountain streams and lakes, power tool enthusiast, owner of a ridiculous amount of CD’s, fishing books and magazines, t-shirts and underwear.

Our hands fit perfectly together. Every day with Lisa brought healing to my heart and mind, which meant clarity and newness of life. When we started our journey together, the first gift I gave her was a journal, so we could capture the moments of our new story.
