On this episode of Restorative Reading & Writing for Wellness, I’m exploring my newest notebook obsession: creating a restorative recipe notebook. It’s a notebook full of my own personal recipes and the recipes that have been handed down to me. I recently shared my new project with my Get Lit(erate). community in hopes they’d offer suggestions and they did not disappoint.

Come listen as I open the episode with this new idea and talk about why I’ve chosen a new format to do so. We’ll explore the power of recipes as restorative writing, the varied ways you might create your own recipe notebook and hopefully, you’ll share your ideas with me as I piece together my own.

You’ll find the show notes for the episode with links to all of the books and resources mentioned right here: https://www.alitlife.com/2025/11/18/create-a-restorative-recipe-notebook/
