In-Depth Review
Mental Health First Planning
Silk + Sonder has revolutionized the planner market by focusing on 'therapeutic journaling.' While many planners focus on productivity at all costs, this undated weekly edition is designed for the 'Spoonie' community, emphasizing rest, habit tracking, and mood monitoring alongside daily tasks. The undated format is crucial for those with fluctuating health; if you have a 'low-spoon' week where you can't use the planner, no pages are wasted.
The planner uses FSC-certified, acid-free paper that is specifically chosen for its high-contrast white balance to aid legibility. The 'Lay-Flat' binding is an essential accessibility feature, allowing the book to stay open on a desk without needing to be held down—ideal for those with arthritis or limited hand strength.
As a B Corp, Silk + Sonder meets high standards of social and environmental performance. The planners are printed in small batches to reduce overstock waste, and all inks used are vegetable-based. The cover is made from a durable, vegan leather-alternative that is easy to wipe clean.
Pros
- ✓Lay-flat design is very accessible
- ✓Undated format prevents waste
- ✓Holistic focus on well-being
