What is Analogue?
Analogue is the bridge between your soul and your journal pages. It’s a field guide for using your journal to live a life of quiet awareness, staying spiritual among the practical, and all while remaining engaged in the world around us.
You will not only find inspiring stories and journal excerpts in these pages, but each issue comes with a little something extra. Here are some examples:
mini original art
bookmarks
journal prompts
vinyl stickers
mini-courses
how-to videos
“Each time I see the Analogue Envelope waiting for me in my mailbox, my mind immediately goes to "me time". It’s far too rare that I sit and read slowly. Analogue demands that of me. And I am so glad. Mandy's take-aways are do-able, ready to put into practice before I get up out of my seat. And somehow her experiences always ring true to my own life. Not sure how she does that month after month! But when Mandy lets us into the raw edges of her life, it makes it easier for my raw edges to connect.”

How will Analogue help you?
“I have a hard time journaling. My perfectionism kicks in and tells me that I have to do it perfectly, which I can't, so I quickly give up. But journaling is an important practice in listening to yourself and the world around you. Mandy Thompson's Analogue helps me enter the practice not as something to master, but as something that happens to me, with me, and in me. Without Analogue, I wouldn't be a stuttering journaler; I wouldn't journal. The inspiration, prompts, and general gentle urge to look inward and outward are a boon to my soul, and the invitation to journal it all is an expression of what's happening in my soul. Mandy has transformed my concept of journaling with Analogue, and I am better for it.”
“I've been journaling for most of my life. Therefore, I didn't think there was anything new to learn regarding this important method of self-care. I was wrong. By following Mandy Thompson's deep intellect and gentle support in the pages of Analogue, I've found fresh prompts, varied inspiration, and sketching (which is amazing because I'm a stick-figure kind of artist). I consider each issue of Analogue a small gift, I always come to Analogue's pages in a quiet space. I look forward to seeing where Mandy is on her journey and to finding hidden extras, such as paint chips and postcards. I appreciate Mandy's support of other artists through special features and introductions. What I look forward to the most is hearing Mandy's comforting voice and trying her easy sketching tips. She is my calm and steady guide. She gives me permission to carve out a bit of time to engage in the development of resilience and compassion. On the pages of Analogue, I find the encouragement to write, draw and even add color to my journal!”

“Following Mandy’s journey through her writing has encouraged me to look at my own journey and how it’s shaped me. My original readings were focused on her writings that showed her feelings, her emotions and her challenges and her triumphs as she navigated life. But my second reading drew me to her artwork. In them I also saw her feelings, emotions, challenges and triumphs and how what she saw came out in her drawings. I was fascinated. I have been journaling for decades, but there have been times when life was simply too painful to write about. Reading Analogue inspired me to keep it real no matter how hard it got and to put it to paper, to start writing my poetry again and step out of the box even more.”
“I look forward to finding Analogue in the mailbox each month because it is an invitation to stop and savor life. I never open Analogue standing in the kitchen with the rest of the mail, I keep it aside to read with my journal and a cup of coffee when life grants me a moment. I enjoy the process of reading Analogue as well as searching each issue for tiny tidbits and resources I can use in my life and daily journaling practice.”
