The Abundant Life Journal

A 30-Week Devotional for Mindfulness and Restoration

About the Book

From popular mental health advocate and lifestyle creative Anh Lin, this thirty-week guided journal offers intentional practices and activities for you to pause and celebrate the abundant life you already have

It's no secret that we are overworked, overstimulated, and stressed out. We long to fill our days with pursuits that bring us joy or peace, but too often, we barely scratch the surface on the tasks we have to do and miss out on doing the fun and life-giving things we want to do. But what if we could grasp that abundant life—right now?

Drawing from her own experience of healing from depression and surrendering the chase for "the good life," popular DIYer, lifestyle influencer, and mental health advocate Anh Lin created the Abundant Life Journal, which repeatedly sold out on her online store The Hooga Shop. Now with a refreshed design and newly added features, the journal invites readers to build a flourishing life filled with purpose and emotional soundness right where they are. Each of the thirty weeks includes an encouraging devotion, a Scripture verse, and a prayer, followed by fun activities that include:
  • coloring pages
  • origami
  • recipes
  • designed quotes
  • guided reflections
  • bullet journaling
  • to-do lists

With a peace-filled and "girl, I'm with you" tone, this resource is a literary hug, an invitation for respite, and a chance to pause and celebrate the abundant life we already have.

Praise for The Abundant Life Journal

“In a world where it feels like all we can see right now is scarcity and striving, Anh Lin shows up right on time to remind us in this absolutely stunning book: The abundant life is not some far off moment of arrival, a distant, shimmering shore full of achievements and gold stars that’s always just beyond our grasp. It is here, and it is now, if only we learn to open our eyes to every miracle already right in front of us. Every page of The Abundant Life Journal shines with what it must be like to see the world through Lin’s eyes—and it’s a world of beauty. With practical prompts and exercises that engage all of your senses, this book doesn’t just preach to you from the pages. It makes you an active participant in crafting a life you love. Pick up this excellent book!”—Mary Marantz, bestselling author of Underestimated and host of The Mary Marantz Show
