This elegant hardcover journal is handmade in Nepal by Tibetan refugees using Lotka paper found in the foothills of the Himalayas. The 8 x 5.5 inch journal is emblazoned with a striking green and gold image of Medicine Buddha, who is said to emanate therapeutic energy. A handmade colored binding cord wraps twice around the closed book to create a sense of completeness after each finished journal entry.

 Handmade item: variances in color and texture are natural and are the result of individual effort and artistry.
