What’s your education and background? I’m an NLP transformational coach who has been through the motions of therapy and counselling and has evolved and continuously evolves.
What makes your book unique? More than a series of weekly prompts, the Evolve & Emerge Reflection Journal marries creativity with structure by giving you weekly intention-setting and reflection space as well as ample dot-gridded sections to doodle, brain spill, sketch, or decorate. Coupled with quotes for you to draw personal meaning and lessons from, the journal gives you room to:
- Gather your thoughts.
- See yourself in the mirror.
- Document your progress.
- Create the mental space you need to gain new perspectives about yourself and your world.
Why did you decide to write it? Reflecting has played and continues to play a pivotal role in my own personal growth and development. Reflecting has helped me reach conclusions I struggle to reach when thoughts and feelings are a concoction of confusion in my mind. I believe in reflection and its power to help us create new perspectives. I created the journal as an invitation for other women interested in self-development to do the same.
About the book: The Evolve & Emerge Reflection Journal is the perfect 13-week companion for you to engage in weekly reflection, so you can create the mental space you need to work towards being the woman you want to be.
With weekly reflection sections as well as ample gridded free-flow journaling space to draw, doodle, brain spill, or decorate, the Evolve & Emerge Reflection Journal marries structure and freedom, so you can truly make it yours.
Designed to complement any existing daily planner or journal you use to plan your day, the Evolve & Emerge Reflection Journal gives you the space to grow, rise, and soar as an exceptional version of yourself.

Book Title: Meditation Through Colouring
Author name: Michele Lee Browning
Publisher: Createspace with Amazon
To purchase: Amazon
What’s your education and background? I’m working towards my Bachelors in Education as an ESL teacher and am a self-taught artist.
What makes the book unique? It is both a colouring book and a guide to meditation and healing.
Why did you decide to write it? I’m a survivor of domestic abuse. I actually survived an attempted murder by my ex-husband in 2016. Alhamdulillah. My art and daily drawings have helped me through the emotional and physical pain I endured as a wife of an emotionally abusive man. I want to share the art I produced with others hoping it will help them too.
About the book:
What does it mean to meditate? The written definition is to think deeply or focus one’s mind for a period of time in silence as a method of relaxation. Let this book be a guide to peaceful and restful relaxation through colouring meditative drawings and using suggested affirmations. Directions: All you need are colouring materials and a comfortable and quiet place to sit.
With each drawing, there are a few guided affirmation words. Read them, close your eyes, and for a moment, think about what those words mean to you. Breathe deeply with repetition until your mind becomes clear and all you are thinking about are those words.
Now open your eyes and colour in the drawing while thinking about what it means to you. After the drawing is complete, look at it while breathing deeply. Take pride in what you’ve created, and take pride in knowing a piece of you lies within it—a peaceful and beautiful part. Now you have completed your meditative drawing. I wish you peace. I wish you rest. But, above all, I wish you love.
