In contrast to fine art, folk art is associated with ordinary people, with farmers and peasants. It usually gives an idealized view of life and inspires comfort and nostalgia.

Spiritual mindfulness calendars Buddhism

Because mindfulness is a way of dealing with problems that does not require drugs or fancy equipment it has become quite popular among many. No surprise then that there are several calendars out there for those interested in enlightening their life through meditation or mindfulness.

The main teacher of Zen Mindfulness these days is of course Thich Nhat Hanh. His Calendars are as inspiring and calming as you would expect.

Mindfulness is really a form of Buddhism adapted to the modern lifestyle of Westerners. That is: what used to be a practice aimed at monks and nuns (and only a minority of those), is now practiced by people who aren't giving up any of life's luxuries.

Tibetan Buddhism too has brought us spiritual teachers capable of bridging the nun-laity gap: Pema Chodron for instance is very good at translating the ancient wisdom to something applicable to our modern hectic lives.

Beautiful Songbird Photography calendars and planners

Songbirds aren't just beautiful to listen to, they're also a class of birds that often have very beautiful feathers. So they're a good subject for nature photography as well.

On this lens you will find calendars and planners devoted to songbirds. In one case you will even get a CD with birdsongs along with the calendar. For the real or aspiring birders among you. To make it all feel more real, I've included a youtube video that also has the sounds of several song (or perching) birds.

Cute Baby Animals Calendars and Date Books, planners, agendas

These calendars and planners have the cutest baby animal pictures, sometimes with their parents. Inspiring, beautiful and simply a great addition to your home.

You'll find farm animals, pets and wildlife photography. Some of these are cuter than cute, others merely very beautiful. You'll find pink and pretty as well as elegant. One calendar combines Bible verses with nature photography.

All in all, a collection that I hope will help you decide what calendar to buy this year.

Lang Graphics brings you two date books for primary school. The large academic planner can be used by the teachers and moms as well as the grade 5 or 6 students. It has enough room for homework, schedule and things like that. The pocket planner is great to start teaching smaller children how a calendar works and how to plan.

Pop Art Planners and date books

Most of the calendars I feature on my blog are meant, implicitly or explicitly, for women. These aren’t. Whether it’s Andy Warhol’s date book devoted to cars, or Dale Chihuly abstract work – I don’t think many men will be ashamed to walk around with most of these pop art planners.

Susan Seddon Boulet (1941-1997) was a passionate student of the world religions and mythology. Her art uses the symbols she found all over the world. Pomegranate has come out with several calendars devoted to her spiritual artwork.

Beautiful black weekly planner for women

Black planners look good on men as well as women, but this one is made with a vintage touch that will appeal mostly to girls and women with style. Aside from the beauty of it, it’s also a practical planner with plenty of space for jotting down appointment: whether work or home. The calendar features pages inspired by a vintage ledger, includes a ribbon marker, and has foil stamping on the cover. Throughout the pages, you will find artwork culled and collaged from vintage sources, alongside functional and beautiful layouts.

Pink leather planners for girls

These high-quality planners feature hand turned bonded leather cover, rounded corners, white vellum end papers, and premium white writing stock.

Pema Chodron Tibetan Buddhism Planners and Calendars

As an ordained nun in the Tibetan Buddhist Vajrayana tradition, Pema Chodron inspires with her day to day wisdom. Amber Lotus has created three calendars in her honor: a wall calendar, a mini wall calendar and an engagement planner or date book. All three are beautifully done and the inspirational and uplifting quotes from The Places That Scare You, which is designed to help us cultivate compassion and awareness within the challenges of daily life. These insightful quotes are paired with beautifully evocative and meditative nature photography.

Rumi Calendars and planners, date books and agendas

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad Rumi was a 13th-century Persian poet, Sunni Islamic jurist, and theologian and mystic. He is often called 'Mewlana' (or Mevlana) or simply Rumi. His poems and sayings are amongst the most beloved religious poetry in the world. Based in the sufi mysticism of Islam they are at once sensuous and wise, tantalizing and deep.

No wonder that books with his poetry sell so well.

Spiritual and religious planners, date books and agendas

These go by many names. Whether you call them agenda books, date planners, planners, pocket calendars or date books... They go where you go and help you keep track of your life. Since they are also spiritual calendars, they help you get inspired about your life in the meantime.

Many of these are made to also function as your year diary: keep track not just of your appointments, but also of your thoughts and feelings about your life. What did your kids achieve? How did they respond? etc.

How to use your student planner to organize your academic life

Make that deadline!

Papers cannot be written well the day before the deadline – that is, for most people that will result in a paper that gets at least one grade point lower grade than if they'd started well ahead of time. In college your teachers will not remind you of your homework every time you see them – and you also see them less often than in school. Still, those papers and tests do have to be done – and you want to do them well to get ahead.

This is why getting organized is so important. And it can't hurt that being organized will help you later in life as well.

As anyone will tell you: to get organized you need a planner. In fact, you need a GOOD planner and you need to use it too, of course.
