Quiet — Self-Care

Lunarsol collaborated with Quiet to create the Self Care Handbook for Design, a resource aimed at fostering holistic well-being for creatives. Recognizing the demands of creative work, the handbook offers tools and practices that encourage balance, mindfulness, and sustainable creativity within the design process.

The handbook integrates self-care principles into daily creative routines, guiding designers to nurture both their craft and their well-being. Key features include:

• Meditation Practices: Simple guided meditations to promote mindfulness, focus, and stress reduction.
• Healthy Body, Healthy Mind: Tips on physical wellness, hydration, and movement to support mental clarity and energy.
• Journaling Prompts: Reflective exercises to deepen self-awareness, spark creativity, and process emotions.
• Weekly & Monthly Calendars: Tools to plan, track, and prioritize self-care alongside project deadlines and creative work.
• Recommended Reading List: Curated selections to inspire reflection, growth, and a deeper understanding of wellness in creative practice.

Framed around the idea that "Form Follows Flow," the handbook empowers creatives to work sustainably, emphasizing that personal well-being enhances artistic output.

The Quiet Self Care Handbook for Design has been widely embraced by designers, artists, and creative teams, promoting healthier work habits and a stronger connection between self-care and creative flow. It has helped shift the narrative around productivity, placing well-being at the core of the creative process.
