They call what they do
       
                         The Journey Daybook

Journey Daybook, Inc is a non-profit corporation founded by artist/writer Peggy Herrick. This corporation is committed to teaching, learning, & sharing the practice of created illustrated journals called journey daybooks.
Honoring the belief that art is a universal language , the Journey Daybook learning cooperative offers participants a heightened sensibility of themselves & the world around them. Participants learn the process of making & illustrating a personal journal in order to discover their artistic sensibilities. This process nurtures the spirit , serves as a catalyst for greater harmony & provides a unique artistic legacy. The Journey Daybook includes four elements : the journey; contemplation ;being present; & working alone. New participants learn the process at retreats that are held regularly somewhere away from home. Alumni adventures are hosted each month by different alumni at interesting sites near home.
The Journey Daybook enhances our ability to slow down & reflect , expands our world , & creates opportunities for us to  reach out to others. This practice can be done at any time, in any place ----from humble places in our own communities to exotic, foreign lands. Our outreach has included working with at-risk youths, Hospice residents, school groups in florida, children & adults in Cuba, & a children's home in Peru. We also enjoy collaborating with groups who share a similar vision , through thoughtfully planned retreats & exhibits.
