At The Mindful Explorer, we are dedicated to helping children build confidence, resilience, and emotional wellbeing through beautifully designed, eco-friendly mindfulness journals for children.

Our mission is to support families, schools and communities, and that is why we share a lot of free tools to encourage positive mental health while caring for the planet.


We believe that nurturing emotional wellbeing from an early age can transform lives. Our mindfulness journals for kids are filled with guided prompts, gratitude logs, calming exercises, and creative spaces. These activities help children:

  • Reduce stress and anxiety
  • Develop emotional awareness
  • Build resilience and self-confidence
  • Improve focus and concentration

By making mindfulness part of daily life, we aim to empower young people to manage challenges, celebrate achievements, and grow into compassionate, mindful individuals.


Eco-Friendly Journals That Care for the Planet

At The Mindful Explorer, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. When you choose our journals, you’re not only supporting your child’s emotional wellbeing and mindfulness — you’re also supporting true environmental care, from forest to finish.

What makes our journals eco-conscious

  • Printed on FSC & PEFC certified paper
    All our paper comes from responsibly managed forests, verified by both the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC).
  • Produced in a low-impact, award-winning facility
    Our print partner has won the Green Apple Award for Environmental Best Practice and the East of England Resource Efficiency Award — reflecting a company-wide commitment to environmental best practice.
  • Carbon-conscious production & logistics
    • Solar panels power production lines and reduce fossil-fuel energy use.
    • All workforce commuting emissions are offset through an Ecologi partnership.
    • Orders trigger a tree-planting action: every order helps plant a new tree.
  • Resource-efficient operations
    • Facility moved to a BREEAM-certified building to minimise environmental impact of infrastructure.
    • Transportation and delivery processes are optimised — fewer daily paper deliveries, shared dispatches to reduce emissions.
    • Within the print facility: 75 % of stock is bulk packed, pre-cut paper off-cuts are minimised, and extensive recycling is in place.
  • Mindful of people, planet, and materials
    • Partnered with the “Love Paper” campaign, promoting responsible print and supporting literacy/learning with low-impact materials.
    • Use of VoIP, reduction in face-to-face meetings, recycling of old technology and toner cartridges — every step matters.
