It's no secret that university life can get overwhelming, and a great way to look after your mental wellbeing and express yourself can be a blank page. Whether you're on the hunt for a new journal or are more of a relaxed doodler, we've got you covered. 

Not just for University Mental Health Day but for the whole week, the arts shop is offering a 10% discount on selected sketchbooks and notepads.

Including:

  • All Moleskine Notebooks
  • All Seawhite Starter Sketchbooks (soft cover)
  • All Seawhite Travel Journals
  • Seawhite Concertina Books
  • Exercise Books

Why put pen to paper? 

Mindful journalling and sketching is more than aesthetics, they're all about process over the finished product. 

  • Visualise your thoughts: getting your thoughts from your head onto page can help make your feelings feel smaller and more manageable. 
  • Be in the moment: the physical act of writing or drawing, like noticing the weight of a pen, can anchor you in the present. 
  • No-pressure: your notebook or journal is a private space just for you, a place where there is no wrong answers. 

If you're a first-time sketcher or journaler, simply grab a book and sketch an object in front of you or write about the start of your day. 

Visit the arts shop between 9 - 13 March to make the most of our offer and get mindful 😌
