I love the adventure, pictures, and details of this book! I like that it guides you gently and changes every page. I don’t journal everyday like I would like to but I’m working my way up to that! I’m planning on ordering the others too because of how much I love this one!
Ashleigh Q.
This is absolutely brilliant, motivational and fun!!! I have struggled to journal but really desired to. From the presentation of the box, quality of pages and binding this product is exceptional. It is made in such a way to bring out your inner child. I want to journal and accomplish my quests!! I also chose to use pens to color and saw others note about bleed through. With any paper book the best pens to use are .3-.4mm. I haven’t had any issues on mine and thought would be helpful for others who mentioned. The paper quality is very good and quality of entire journal is worth every penny. I can also tell the passion, love and countless hours that went into the characters and design. Thank you so much for designing this!!! It truly has helped me in a very hard time. My husband even wants one now and he doesn’t journal lol. Can’t wait for the quest cards to come back in stock!
Arianna F.
I already had filled one journal (the hero journal) and I personally loved using that journal, and I’m excited to start this new adventure. Maybe it’s the artist in me, but I just LOVE using something that LOOKS really good.
Jaime G.
This journal is amazing and I highly recommend it!
Samantha G.
Really enjoyed the story so far my 5yr son and I love coloring the pictures.

After deciding that Happy Planner is too customizable I started looking for a planner/journal hybrid with a bullet journal feel. The Hero's Journal is so fun! Questing is much more interesting than "working on a goal"
Pen test has some shadow and ridging.

I actually ordered this item for a friend who was going to be working from Argentina for 3 months. She had told me how sometimes she has trouble journaling (which I had in the past as well) until I found The Hero's Journal. The guided journaling has really helped me and I have suggested it to people. It's been a huge blessing in this road to mental health healing I have been on and When I finish my first one will definitely be grabbing myself another one!
John C.
I have two other books and have had an excellent experience with them. I’m a terrible planner and this has really helped.
ASHLEY M.
I have looked forward to using my journal everyday. It has been motivating and a great way to stay focused on my goal, unlike my planner which is all over the place. I’ve already thought of ways to use my next journals!
Weldon C.
I have been journaling for years and tried all kinds of journals. None ever quite got it right. Until now. The nerd in me loves the quests and the whole experience of this awesome journal! I can't wait to get more. I am using mine for a mental health quest and the Istoria Magic Academy journal is perfect!
Mike S.
I have been absolutely delighted with my journals and this one is no exception.
Rachael C.
Taking it a day at a time writing out anything that happened that day to help purge the excess chatter in my brain
Eileen H.
I’m 100% obsessed with this journal. It is the perfect balance of self care, whimsy, and keeping yourself accountable. It’s not overwhelming and I have woken up early every morning this week just to write up my day.
I’ve got a list of people I will be gifting these to. Bravo to you for creating such a wonderful tool for all heroes.
Barbara S.
I'll admit that I was afraid that this would be "just another journal" for me- with either too many things to fill out each day or too few. This really is a perfect mix- and I'm more and more excited to color things in as I go.
_ love the "frog" to eat- I read that book, totally love the strategy
- Love the grateful, allies, threats. Love that I get two rewrite my quest each day to really drive it home.
The thing that would allow me to stop using my other journals are weekly/monthly spreads so I can plan within it- but I understand that's not the purpose here. Overall a big win.
Corie B.
The journal and all accompanying material fall a bit on the cheesy side, but in the best possible way. Talking of grand adventure, treating small daily stuff like steps on some great quest, and encouraging regular self reflection and reviewing of progress in between chapters, to name a few examples. As someone who struggles with keeping track of stuff and generally doesn't enjoy self improvement journals, I've honestly been shocked at how fun and helpful this one is. The fact that the book is a nice quality, well bound journal that comes in a fancy feeling case just makes writing in this thing feel all that more special, and makes me want to come back and write in it more on a daily basis. I've found it's really helped me keep on track with my goals, and I definitely see myself ordering another one whenever I finish this current book.
Abi S.
I think I got an older version of the journal since it had the numbers on the list section and no pocket but I love it none the less!
Ana I.
Im just starting but I feel better with this journal than any other I feel like a magical creature
Shannyn M.
Very well made journal, seems it would last being carried around. Makes me actually want to write things down because it’s more fun than a normal journal/ planner. Being able to color in the pages is really cool.
Jennifer B.
The art, the psychology and the gamification make me feel encourage to tackle some goals. Getting to label each entry as a quest allows me to laser focus through the other “must-dos” and see how every day can lead towards my ultimate goal
If you’re thinking about getting some of these journals, bite the bullet and do it. There is nothing to lose and so much to gain.
Elaine G.
These journals keep me on track and give texture to my goals. I’ve accomplished so much more having a Hero’s Journal by my side.
Christine A.
I LOVE this journal. I am not someone who ever keeps a journal for long. I get bored with them quickly so I always assume a journal will not work for me. Now, it has only been one week, but I actually look forward to using it each night to prepare for the next day. I use a different color each day to color in the pages and check mark things I did from the previous day, then write out all of the info on that page. The next day, I use a different color to color different elements of the scene and go on like that.
It makes it fun and relaxing. There have been things on my list of "one day I'll" that I have actually been doing since using this journal.
You have a customer for life. I figure I will do one of the other journals next, then the next one after that, then cycle through them again until you come out with a new one.
Thank you for making such an awesome product.
dawn k.
i am trying them all actually:) im enjoying doing them. some days i journal a little, other days a lot and a moment to reflect and color a bit
shawn r.
I bought the journey for my wife who has ADHD and to function a peak efficiency needs to keep lists and the journey not only allows her to be make her lists it has all the pictures for her to colour which helps when she needs a simple task to occupy her mind.
Theta R.
I absolutely loved the original journal and it’s the first journal I ever finished. When I had two weeks left in it, I bought the Magic Academy journal. I really like the non-threatening way they are both laid out and how each day I can use the lined and dotted areas in different ways. The combination of structure and non-structure keeps me using the journal.
Kelly Z.
Morning coffee, my favorite gold glitter pen, and my Journal. I'm completing my first week and am amazed at the breakthroughs I've experienced including - dropping a bad habit, starting a new writing project, and clearing the decks of distracting annoyances. This journal is a journey, a daily vacation for the mind.
Ashley S.
This Journal is my new best friend! I had seen this journal pop up on Instagram a few times, and I gave in and had to check it out. I fell in love with the idea of a magical self-care journal the moment I saw it, and the potions purple color release pushed me over the edge. It shipped super fast and looks just as lovely as on the website. The paper quality makes it so I can color on every page, and you won't see a thing on the other side. I ordered a 120-pack of colored pencils to have a variety of colors to use! The un-dated pages have been one of my favorite parts; with planners and journals I have kept in the past, they all had one common downfall, I miss a day or two and lose all motivation because it's no longer a "Daily" journal or planer. But the un-dated pages in the Heros journal have given me peace of mind because I know I can go back as if nothing happened, and I don't have to feel guilty about skipping a page because I missed that day. Another part of this journal that I love is that they call it a quest, not a goal. As a big D&D player and a nerd altogether, this choice of words has boosted my motivation and let me see a big scary topic as fun and exciting. I highly recommend this journal to anyone struggling with motivation or simply wanting to put a fun magic twist on boring everyday life. Thank you, Heros journal, for bringing back my inspiration!
Lauren G.
Creative, fun, and helpful for setting realistic goals
Heather L.
I use my journal every day weather I write or color in it, I am also looking forward to the release of the new journal coming out on June 3, I hope I am able to order one. I will always purchase these journals, they are amazing.
Ethan S.
The hero’s Journal has easily become my favorite planner I’ve encountered in the past 3 years! It has helped to visualize what’s actually important and needs to get done that day while at the same time encouraging me to be self-aware of my behaviors that will help or hinder achieving those tasks. I am a very visual person, so a tool like the hero’s journal is priceless to me! I love how every page has a different picture on it so day by day you see the story progress and it doesn’t feel like you’ve wasted a moment or a page. And the design of the magic academy characters and settings are top notch! I will definitely be a repeat customer!
Keila L.
Heard about the journal first from a Youtuber I enjoy watching and bought the legend of Istria for my fiance. He loved it so I decided to take a journey of my own, and I don't regret it. The art for Istoria Academy is so cute and I love that I got the colorless box. Both them and the adorable art are so nice to color when the day drags on and I can't find the motivation to write. The date-less pages really help me come back to the journal without worry when work and life get in the way.
Joe H.
Great at keeping me motivated to get things done. The lack of dates is also great because it doesn’t make me feel discouraged if I miss a day or two. I also really love that you can color the pages it’s a fun destressing activity!
Philomena M.
This journal is lovely! I think it's very different and that's why I decided to get one. I usually use these types of things for plotting and motivation during novel writing, but I decided to use this one for tracking health goals. We could all use a little more MAGIC in our lives. The little black cat companion is also adorable. That cat was literally the deciding factor in which journal to purchase. haha I am hoping to get one for my spouse in the future.
Tamera M.
Love this journal. I've had it for a week, and am using it everyday (which is something that never happens). I'm in the midst of juggling a bunch of balls in the air and this journal is helping me to stay focused on my long term goal. Gonna bust out the colored pencils soon so I can start coloring the pictures as a meditation tool.
Sandra M.
I like it. I would like if there was a place to write more about my day and a prayer.
The journal is very durable & the pages are good quality.
I would buy another one when I'm finished.
Miranda C.
I really enjoy my journal! It keeps me on track! It’s such a nice way to gamify my to do list.
Kayla D.
I’m really enjoying it and when it’s filled I look forward to purchasing another one it’s been very helpful for me and the quality is magnificent would definitely recommend.
Emma T.
I love this concept of a journal. Let's you chronicle your day in a fun way. Absolutely love it!!!!

Megan M.
I originally got this journal to help keep me organized and to manage my stress. I also got it for the coloring part since the illustrations are cute, and coloring helps me de-stress. I was feeling a little burned out from work, but this journal helped me shift my perspective. My daily quests went from "get through work" to "get through work with pride." And that helped my mental state immensely.
Rommel L.
I really enjoyed the journal. It was very fun and at the same time, it helped me to stay organized and focused.
Christine B.
Exceeded my expectations! Awesome packaging and fast shipping!
Kristie A.
I'm loving my hero's journal! It makes taking charge of my days fun and interesting!
Katrina F.
I truly enjoy my new morning routine of filling in the day's plans while eating breakfast. The journal gives me hope and encouragement, and I hope to get better slowly but surely with it at my side
Jennifer C.
It’s a great journal that help me rethink my day!
Daphnée B.
I really enjoy it!
Savanna G.
I use my journal every day. I love the format and the extra space to use as I feel free.
Daniela S.
I love the artwork and layout of each day. I like how there is a repeating flow to the journal, but I can add my own twist to it. I enjoying seeing what I have accomplished each day and taking the time to reflect on what went well or what needs tweaked.
Elizabeth G.
I’m a 40 something geeky adult who is struggling with mental health issues. This journal has been so much fun to play around and “journal” in. I love coloring the pages and the fact that I don’t feel pressure to add an entry every day!
Mark P.
I’m an adult trying to use the journal to help me get my life a little more directed and organized. Even on days I don’t defeat my big enemy I do feel accomplished for seeing all I did conquer. My blue journal has time markers that help me form a plan and adapt.
Joanna Z.
I am addicted to these journals. I'm an aspiring writer and it's such a struggle to not buy a truckload, one for every potential plot idea. The illustrations are so much fun and it is so well organized. You truly feel like you have a faithful friend accompanying you on your journey.
Emi C.
I've been told this journal is especially good for ADHD brains, it helps you stay motivated and productive, while working towards your goals.
It's so beautifully made and since I've opened it, I've had nothing but smiles reading through the first few pages. It's been such an amazing experience since I started writing in it, I'm so glad I made this purchase!
I highly recommend this journal to anyone who's interested. ☺️✨
Jada W.
This journal is a blessing! I got Potions Purple as the color suited me best. What really sold me was the contents, though. As someone with ADHD, I've never been able to consistently write in journals or focus on setting and keeping goals. With this, I feel more motivated while slowly progressing through the pages, continuing my story both in the book and in real life! I feel like I can finally achieve my goal of working on and finishing my first novel before the end of the year!
Cheryl P.
This is the only journal that I have ever been able to use successfully. I love that the dates aren't stamped on every page and you can fill the date in yourself because other journals made me feel guilty for missing days. The daily lists on every page are fun and really help me acknowledge my goals.
heather h.
It may have taken a few tries but it is here! Can't wait to dig in and begin a Purple Potions Journey.

Riley S.
I got this as a gift for a friend after trying out and using my own Hero’s Journal. It’s been great to see the product in use and my friend has been really happy with it so far!
Cory C.
I have been looking to get into daily journalling for a few years now, but got overwhelmed with how to start. What do I write about? How to I set up my own bullet journal? Should I just write things down like it’s a diary? This did all of the overwhelming work for me. Additionally, I am a MONSTER of a procrastinator who is very passionate about stories. Whether it be sci-fi, fantasy, post apocalyptic - I will be hooked. So the concept of myself being the hero of a story (even if it is just my plain old every day life) makes this a huge appeal to me.
One of my goals has been to get back to the gym and begin a fitness plan. On days I wanted to skip the gym I found myself picturing myself as little Yew off defending Istoria and are the frog to make sure I was working just as hard towards my goals at Yew was.
My first journal was the green which was a beautiful color, high quality, and excellent paper for both writing and coloring. For the next journal I have ordered the potions purple and it is GORGEOUS. I also like the inclusion of the daily goal tracking book marks.
Great product. Daily journaling has helped me over the past 90 days. If you’re looking to journal, procrastinate and need a way to decompress either to start or end your day - this product is a must have for you.
Megan W.
I love my journal and the artwork to color in. It’s a great way to unwind and focus on me everyday.
Jacklyn S.
Beautiful journal. Comes in a heavy duty magnetic closure box. Cover is cloth. Seams are secure. Ink is crisp and defined. Very happy with this!
Jaron C.
I love it! I didn't start it yet because I'm on my dragon fire red book but I'll start once I'm done!
Chelsey Y.
I am loving everything about this journal!!
Lisa B.
Got this for my daughter but the digital won’t work for her since I bought it under my account. So I paid for digital twice and neither of us use it.
Lisa B.
I bought one for my daughter and I…. I just wish you offered it without the digital download or I would order one for my sisters, nieces, and best friend. P,ease offer it without the digital download.
Santiago R.
It's such a cute journal! I use it specially on days where I have many things to do and it has seriously helped me plan my evenings out! I'm so glad I found this journal!
Phommasone I.
I really enjoy this journal!
I’m 1.5 weeks into using it and jotting things down in it. Really, it’s more a day planner and a means to keep your goals small, focused, and to keep you moving in a positive way. There are small areas to write your thoughts, so it’s less journal and more a way to focus yourself. It’s fantastic to keep oneself on target.
The Hero’s Journal: Magic Academy is also beautifully crafted. The Mystic Blue is a striking colour, and the “fit and finish” as it were, is amazing. The textured cover is nice to the touch, and the paper is thick and robust as to avoid any bleed through of ink. The ribbon bookmark is just a bonus.
I’ll definitely buy another to keep the Journey going!
Carmen C.
Very pleased with the quality of this book and the side quest cards I bought, would definitely recommend them to others.
Hannah W.
I'm so excited that I found this journal! I have always had a hard time keeping up with things like: journaling, keeping a planner, etc. Regardless of what I used, I would forget it existed and I just wouldn't use it...But this journal is amazing; it speaks to that part of me that needs to try and make things whimsical and less like the harshness of reality and it works fantastic!!! I cannot say enough good things about it; from the layout, to the artwork, to the way everything is phrased to make the entire experience fun instead of feeling like a chore. I just love it.
Chelsey Y.
Loving the journal excited that I am working on self love
Heather P.
I've seen the ads for awhile on Instagram and debated for months as to if I should buy the journal and I will admit my only regret is not buying it earlier. The journal is cute, well written, and adorably illustrated. I really appreciate that it's undated and easily picked up if you don't use it for a bit. I have cognitive issues and easily forget things but I still want to work getting to my goals and this book allows me to that and not feel guilty. This book is worth the price and will help motivate you in a non-pushy and non-judemental way. Plus the art/story is so freaking cute!
Paula H.
At first they messed up my order. However, the minute they heard about their mistake they did everything possible to make it right. With in a few days I had exactly what I had ordered. They are a wonderful company with quality products and excellent customer service. I will definitely be recommending thier products and company to everyone I know. ♥️♥️♥️
Also this journal is perfect for both my teens and myself (a 40yo)♥️
Bethany A.
I got Hero’s Journal for my boyfriend’s Christmas gift. He’s been wanting to plan his days out better, but hasn’t been able to really stick to a method until now. When I found Hero’s Journal, I thought of him immediately, because it seemed fun and engaging (which as I suspected was helpful for him). He uses the journal all the time and loves it. I’m glad I found it!
Alexandria C.
I love the subtle changes in the background as you move through the journal! It’s nice to have a journal that I actually want to write in rather than a plain, blank one. 10/10 would buy again!
Varun G.
Great to organise / journal my thoughts
Elizabeth M.
This is, by far, the most fun I've ever had filling out a goals journal. The illustrations are great and I love coloring them in every night. More than that, the way the journal is organized, with all the check ins, task lists, and reflections, is so helpful for working towards my goal. I look forward to working with it every day. I'm so glad I asked for this for Christmas!
sheila d.
I love this journal so much and it helps me to keep focused on my goals, I really love the daily quotes , and getting to color in the pages helps me to deal with anxiety. I am actually planning on ordering a second one for myself and one for my hubby
Mark H.
The Hero’s Journal has given me a great way to prioritize the things that I need to do in a way that really furthers my goals and encourages me to get them done. I love the format, and the artwork is excellent. I love the cute little crocodile kid!
Aleksandra K.
I absolutely love it! The paper is a good quality, it makes it fun to come through:) makes me genuinely excited for next entry:)
One thing maybe worth think about - the bookmark... It's not explained anywhere what am i supposed to do with it... Perhaps it could be used to track "levelling up" on my side quests?:)
Shelly K.
I got the blue for myself and the grey for my husband. And we both love them. They’ve been really helpful in keeping ourselves accountable for our plans. It also makes our ADHD brains happy! When I’m trying to think of some of the answers, my brain wanders off into coloring the pages while I think. With no actual dates written in, it doesn’t make me feel guilty for skipping a day or two. But I’ve found it to be a great habit to write a little bit each night before bed.
We are avid TTRPG players and this makes our own story that much more fun! (We’re debating doing a dice roll to see how many more item to add for the “to make my day successful” section)
Michael K.
Off to a good start on my journey. I'm the kind of person that needs framework and motivation like this, and the fact that I can take days off is good for my peace of mind.
Rin v.
It's beautiful and the art is so fun. There's nothing about this I don't love.
Janice V.
Fantastical journal! Daughter completely enjoys it! Great buy!
Brendan K.
This journal is beautiful. I love the progression of the art. If you are a Harry Potter fan this is the journal for you.
Nancy M.
This is by far the best journal I have ever used. I get every morning and actually can't wait to write in it and work on my story.
Katie V.
Shipping was crazy fast and the journal is so perfect! I love journals but often have a hard time keeping up with them. I've had this for two weeks and I am so excited to keep going! The artwork is phenomenal and outer cover is quality material.
Kimberly S.
I got it as a gift for my friend. She loves it! She even bought a new pretty pen to use in it.
Tyler H.
I really enjoy the fantasy adventure cartoons and positive psychology built into this journal. Well Done!
Heidi M.
I already had gotten the Legend of Istoria Journal and used it to help me prepare for writing a novel. I love the layout of the journal and how each section tells more and more of the story, even as you are guided through your own quest. I love the art and the fact that I am able to color it in myself. I'm looking forward to using the Istoria Academy to help me prepare myself for my next novel.
Amanda G.
I bought a journal for my 10 year old daughter as a present and thought it was amazing. As a surprise, seeing how excited I was about her journal, my husband purchased one for me as well. I haven’t gotten started yet. I feel like I need to spend time mulling over a goal worthy of my new journal. I love that there are printable pages and that I can complete it digitally as well. The packaging and product is well-crafted and all decisions in design seem to have been made with care and function in mind. I couldn’t be happier with my new journal and my daughter feels the same way.
Terri V.
It was a gift for our daughter-in-law, and she is very excited about it! And I have the pages you emailed me that I can use too! Thanks for the adventure!
MaryJo K.
Bought this for my son for Christmas and he LOVES it!!
Kristen N.
This is my son’s second book! He loves it.
Michelle L.
It’s beautiful. I got mine for Christmas from my sister. I was looking for something that I can write down my thoughts in and it’s an added bonus that the journey is just for me. (Also love the fact that I can color it too!)
Rachel J.
Very cute item, very happy.
Aveen B.
Absolutely love it!!!
Maria V.
It has helped me to be excited about planning my day and reflecting on the good stuff
Sylvia W.
I received my hard-cover notebook and I'm so happy! It looks like a lot of fun and a good way to add excitement to a very mundane goal.
Yvonne H.
Perfect gifts for my middle schooler and college student….budding authors, artists… dreamers and Doers!!!!
