The Studio Yearbook is a seasonal guided journal designed to support you in bringing your creativity to life.
The Studio Yearbook brings together powerful and proven practices that will awaken and support your artistic spirit. Every season it guides hundreds of my students to a more inspired, aligned and vibrant creative life.
Your Studio Yearbook Practices
The Studio Yearbook brings together powerful creative practices that have been a part of Jamie Ridler Studios for years! Now you can do all of the following in one creative journal:
Capture Your Days: Open your awareness to the magic of everyday life by paying attention to your days. The big, the small, the mundane, the beautiful – all of it has a home in your Studio Yearbook. A few sentences in this seasonal journal and you can hold onto precious details of your life that you will treasure for years to come.
Gather Inspiration: Having a fun and fertile inspiration practice can fuel your creative fire! Your yearbook supports you in strengthening your inspiration radar daily and gives you a home for all you discover. Stuck for an idea? Flip through your pages and revisit your collection! Over time, your Studio Yearbook becomes a rich creative resource!
Create with Focus: When you align your life with your true desires, transformation begins. In your Studio Yearbook, you’ll discover the magic of working with Focus Areas, identifying what matters to you most and beginning to plan your life around that! This is a game-changer!
Dream: Under the power and blessing of each full moon, you will call in your dreams. Intuition will be your guide as you create a monthly dreamboard in your Studio Yearbook, a dreamboard that expresses the deep desires of your creative soul. When you have this true north, the path ahead becomes clear, making it easy to set priorities, make decisions and set about creating your heart’s desire.
Practice Gratitude: Lift your spirit each day with a moment of gratitude. This simple practice can shift your energy as well as your perspective. Let this beloved ritual remind you of all that you hold dear.
Celebrate You: Life may not always give us the kudos we desire and deserve but we can learn to do this for ourselves. Acknowledging ourselves and celebrating our personal markers of success is motivating and fosters a sense of self-appreciation. Give yourself gold stars and honour all that you pour into your life and your work.
Lifelong Learning: A creative life is one rich with reflection and growth. Your Studio Yearbook reminds you to draw the lessons out of each day and hold them close to your heart. As you develop a practice of gathering your insights and learnings, they will grow deeper and stronger, eventually becoming a strong foundation of your personal wisdom.
Find Your Voice: Each Studio Yearbook starts out as the same fill-in-the-blank black and white journal. As you fill your yearbook with what’s in your heart, as you brave following your own instincts and truly making it your own, you will start to see yourself reflected back in those pages. You will see your colours, your words, your choices, your dreams, your preferences and your desires. You will see that your Studio Yearbook could have been created by no one but you and you will know that the same is true of your creative work and the same is true of your life.
Treasure Your Memories: At the end of the season, you’ll look back through your Studio Yearbook and be amazed by how it has captured this particular time of your life. Bit by bit, it has become a unique expression of you and of this moment in time. In years to come, you and your loved ones, if you choose to share, will look back on your Studio Yearbook and see an irreplaceable vision of you.
