Tiny rituals for those of us who give too much
Journalette is a sanctuary for over-givers, caregivers, and empaths.
The ones who care deeply, feel everything, and often forget themselves in the process.
This is not pastel wellness or performative self-care.
It’s a quiet return to meaning.
A practice of ritualizing your life, turning the smallest acts into anchors that bring you back to yourself.
Ritualizing Your Life
To ritualize your life means to give ordinary moments meaning again.
A cup of tea becomes an exhale.
A short walk becomes meditation.
A tiny page becomes a reflection.
We live in a world that teaches us to rush, fix, and achieve.
Ritual is the opposite. Ritual is presence. It’s the body remembering safety.
When we slow down enough to notice, even small actions (lighting a candle, writing a line, closing your eyes) become medicine for the nervous system.
Journalette™ is built around micro rituals:
small, finishable acts of reflection, grounding, and calm.
Because you don’t need more to-do lists.
You need tiny, sacred pauses that help you feel human again.
What You’ll Find Here
Tiny Journals & Micro Rituals
Digital and physical Journalettes™ pocket-sized journals designed to help you process emotions, set boundaries, and rediscover calm.
Each one is a micro ritual in paper form: short enough to finish, deep enough to shift something inside you.
Journal Prompts That Matter
No fluff or filler.
Every prompt is designed to uncover truth, soothe the mind, and restore clarity.
Micro Meditations & Ritual Cards
Short, grounding practices you can complete in under two minutes.
Because nervous-system regulation doesn’t require perfection. Striving for perfection further dysregulates your nervous system. It’s just about presence.
Who This Is For
-
Caregivers who give endlessly and need a way to refill their own cup.
-
Over-givers who are learning to say no without guilt.
-
Empaths who feel everything and need gentle tools to come back to center.
-
Anyone ready to build small, sustainable rituals of care and calm into daily life.
If you crave simplicity, slowness, and depth, you’re home.
I’m Alicia, former Registered Nurse, caregiver for my mom, and a lifelong over-giver learning to live differently.
For years, I believed self-care had to be big. I thought it meant hours of routines, perfect plans, or expensive escapes. And because of my all-or-nothing personality, if I missed one self-care to-do, I threw out the entire plan.
But real healing began when I started creating tiny rituals inside my ordinary days:
writing a few lines before bed, walking without my phone, making tea like a prayer.
Those small, consistent pauses regulated my nervous system and reconnected me to myself.
Journalette™ was born from that discovery.
Bite-sized self-care and micro rituals can change the way we live, breathe, and care for ourselves.
What Journalette Stands For
This is a space for:
-
Truth-telling instead of perfection.
-
Slowness instead of pressure.
-
Micro rituals instead of massive overhauls.
-
Self-return instead of self-abandonment.
You don’t need to become someone new.
You just need to remember who you already are, one small ritual at a time.
Here’s my Promise to You
I won’t hand you another checklist.
I won’t tell you to hustle your healing.
I’ll meet you where you are. Tired, hopeful, honest.
And I’ll help you create moments of calm that fit inside your real life.
Because you deserve care that doesn’t cost you more energy to receive.
