Synopsis

More than merely blank lines, this two-year “next-gen” journal is packed with positivity and pointers for improving mental health, happiness, and success in college and life. Each day has a different tip at the top based on research and experience of college students.

• Monday Manners: practical tips for better behavior and life skills to establish early on
• Tuesday Tips: smart advice and survival insights from Dr. Dave and his daughters to succeed in college and in life
• Wednesday (“Hump Day”) Happy Hacks: research-based tips and tools to increase positivity, gratitude, mental health, hope, and happiness
• Thursday Myths: tons of myths are debunked about college life with realities provided
• Friday Fill in the Blanks: prompts to journal your thoughts and feelings about goals, friends, favorites, food, fun, and much more!
• Saturday TED Talks: summaries and QR codes to listen and learn from the best TED Talks on topics relevant to college students!
• Sunday Stress Busters: science-based strategies to manage challenges, worry, fear, and anxiety

Then a perfect amount of space each day to write down both “Memories Made” and “Tough Times and Lessons Learned.”

PLUS!

• Space for your daily gratitude
• Rate each day with emojis
• A “Did You Know” fact or tip at the bottom of each page
• We even snuck in some random fun games and coloring pages!

The front of the journal has space designed to jot down roommates’ names, room to write down classes, instructors, grades, goals, and more! It’s much more than a journal—it’s a journey!

Today’s generation of college students prefer learning in smaller daily doses. Simple tips, happy hacks, stress-busters and the top TED Talks are spread across 2 years. The bottom of each page is saved for Year 2, so students can reflect on what happened one year earlier, which is the top half of each page.

Drawing on decades of research, Dr. Dave and his daughters crafted timely tips to arm students in their battles with stress, mental health struggles, and for getting along in their dorm to succeeding in the classroom. It’s like having a professor, parent, and professional counselor in your backpack!

Why this journal? The mental health crisis among college students is marked by increasing rates of anxiety, depression, and stress-related disorders, exacerbated by academic pressures, social media use, and relationship struggles. This journal combines the experience of daily writing with research-based tips from relationship science, positive psychology, and neuroscience to give students the boost they need to survive and thrive in their college years.

Journaling offers significant benefits for college students' mental health and happiness by serving as a therapeutic tool for self-expression and emotional processing. It helps in managing anxiety, reducing stress, and enhancing self-awareness by encouraging reflection on personal experiences and emotions. It also contributes to increased gratitude and mindfulness, promoting a positive outlook on life.

It makes the perfect gift for graduating high school seniors or college students at any stage!
