It\u2019s also so much more than just a diary,\u201d says Lameez, who has always loved writing things down.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGrowing up I poured my heart into daily \u2018Dear Diary\u2019 entries, which I hid in a red box under my bed. I say \u2018hid\u2019 because it mostly included entries about how fabulous I looked in neon, ways I was going to get Madonna to make me her backup singer, and reasons why my super cute neighbour was definitely THE ONE. I was just a girl.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As she started adulting, Lameez says her diary morphed into something that was only about school meetings, dentist and doctor appointments, grocery lists and scribbles to call a plumber &#8211; grown up stuff.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe inspiration to write my diary was born of two things. I wanted to leave a legacy for my children. I wanted them to always have something they could refer to that would offer them simple tools to create peace for themselves &#8211; even when I am not around them and they are in the world on their own. I also kept a gratitude journal which was a separate book to my diary.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As someone who feels deeply, Lameez says with this blessing, came the need to people-please and the feeling of wanting-to-fix, rescue and control everything and everyone around her.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-42280 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0008-400x267.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0008-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0008-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0008-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0008-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0008-630x420.jpg 630w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0008-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0008-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0008.jpg 1620w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/>\u201cI was constantly trying to make sense of the things I was experiencing and I was exhausted from trying to be everything to everyone, and I was on a mission to try and create ease in my life. I wanted one book that was beautiful to look at,\u00a0provided space to remind me of my daily commitments, jot notes to myself and express gratitude for the glimmer moments experienced in my day. I wanted it to feed my soul and my senses. I couldn\u2019t find a book or diary to fill this need, so I decided to create one myself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Together with talented local artist, Terry Angelos, who understood her vision from the get-go, Lameez put together a diary for 2025 that plants seeds for deeper thought while being conscious of the environment, and gives the reader a feast for the eyes, mind, body and soul.<\/p>\n<p>The cover is printed on a soft touch linen textured fabric, made from recycled fabric and plastic waste, and each month has a new theme and opens with a whimsical, exquisite, related piece of hand painted art.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-42283 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0012-400x267.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0012-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0012-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0012-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0012-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0012-630x420.jpg 630w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0012-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0012-1068x712.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LP2-0012.jpg 1620w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/>\u201cAs we journey through the year, the diary covers foundational tools &#8211; love, money, play, exercise, food and more. And it offers gentle habits that we can embrace to help us find our way back to balance and harmony,\u201d says Lameez, who admits to being very curious by nature and that in creating this diary, she found herself on a path of self-discovery and personal growth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs I\u00a0continued my journey I started noticing changes &#8211; I was reacting less and responding more. I felt more relaxed and grounded,\u201d says Lameez, adding that the habits she\u2019s collated in her diary are tools that she used personally to move herself from feeling stuck and helpless, to feeling empowered and in control of her own life.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am also a natural sharer, so when I started seeing the benefit in my own life I wanted to share my joy with others. This led me to studying with Heal Your Life South Africa, and I now work to teach people about self-love &#8211; what it really is and how to work on making it part of your lifestyle.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As a Muslim, Lameez says that her faith and trust in her Creator are paramount to creating harmony in her life and that her diary process progressed and unfolded intuitively.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt felt like I was divinely guided the entire way,\u201d says Lameez, adding that the diary appeals to everyone &#8211; regardless of age, gender or religion &#8211; and especially to people who enjoy journaling &#8211; a daily gratitude practice &#8211; as well as type A personalities who love being organised and people who work in a high stress environment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy message via the diary is a simple one \u2013 cultivate kindness, grace and compassion to ourselves and others. These are all values I have learnt as a child and now teach to my own children.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When she\u2019s not journaling or guiding people on a new path to wellness, or wrapping books in the company of her silent companion, her cat, Hurley Joon, Lameez\u2019 favourite way to unwind is attending an aqua jogging class, walking around her neighbourhood or sipping a cup of rooibos tea in her garden and marvelling at her view, which she describes is like a moving postcard.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-42293 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LPB-0004-267x400.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"267\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LPB-0004-267x400.jpg 267w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LPB-0004-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LPB-0004-280x420.jpg 280w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LPB-0004-696x1044.jpg 696w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/highway-berea\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/23\/2024\/11\/LPB-0004.jpg 720w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 267px) 100vw, 267px\" \/>\u201cLife is far more doable when we start to recognise that we are responsible for our lives and that we have the power to choose differently over and over again.So, here\u2019s to you believing in you!
