A Little Box of Calm in a Very Busy World.

If you’re new here you are welcome, however many of you will know me through Good Evans Art, where I LOVE creating bespoke pieces as well as gifts, and designs that celebrate life’s moments. I also create digital pet art and take delight in supporting and helping new businesses.

Today I want to share something a little different…something very close to my heart.

I am branching out with a new project called ‘ANCHORED THOUGHTS’.

Orange tag with white text that says 'Lifecraft'

We are delighted to collaborate with LIFECRAFT a mental health charity, donating £5 from each box sold, plus a further £2 for each piece of affirmation clothing too. Your donation really makes a BIG difference and helps provide valuable funds for our community.

So…What does the name “Anchored Thoughts” actually mean?

The word ‘anchored’ comes from the idea of an anchor keeping a boat steady when the waters get rough. In terms of wellbeing, anchoring is about grounding yourself — finding stability and calm when your thoughts or feelings are becoming overwhelming.

So, Anchored Thoughts is exactly that:

Gentle tools and reminders to help steady your mind when life feels a little stormy.
Taking a pause, reconnecting with yourself, and finding calm in the present moment.

Why I created this

For years I struggled with my own mental health. I think it’s very important that we can say this more openly… It’s Okay not to be Okay.

During one particularly challenging period — while navigating grief and some extremely difficult moments — I realised how much the smallest resources can help.

Simple things that help you breathe again when everything feels overwhelming.

That’s when I recognised there was a real need for this.

So I decided to bring together some of the techniques and comforts that helped me, all in one unique package.

And that’s how Anchored Thoughts came into being.

Who is it for?

Designed for anyone who needs a moment of calm.

Whether you’re buying one for yourself, supporting a friend, or reminding someone they aren’t alone, my hope is that each box becomes a small anchor when life feels overwhelming.

What is an Anchored Thoughts box?

Each “Anchored Thoughts” support box is designed to bring moments of calm into your real world— a gentle invitation to pause and take some much needed YOU time.

Because the truth is:

YOU matter
YOU are worth the time and care.

Inspirational poster titled 'Anchored Thoughts' with a background of sky and sea, featuring an anchor graphic. The poster contains calming affirmations about staying grounded and resilient.

Inside each box you’ll find a thoughtful collection of grounding tools, including:

Cue Cards (deck) with breathing techniques and affirmations, pocket-sized reminders that fit easily into purses or wallets
Some posters
A selection my own artwork designed to encourage calm and reflection
Mental health check-in sheets
A helpful card and poster with useful contact numbers and details of some charities to reach out to in difficult moments.

There will also be comforting items to help regulate the senses, such as, and not limited to:

Keyrings, pocket hugs and bracelets
Colouring sheets with colouring pencils (when you need creative calm)
Soft sensory items, pom poms, stress balls etc
Ear plugs for when you just need a bit of quiet
Note pad and pen
Pin badges, stickers
A small keyring with space for you to add your own affirmations. quotes or useful numbers
A craft activity (because, well, it wouldn’t be right to leave out the one thing that led me into my recovery journey. It helped me so I added it for you to try too.)
Oh, and because a little kindness never hurts, there may be a little sweet treat inside from me ;)

*(Contents may vary)

Brights Box

Meet the Brights Box

Our original design, created to lift spirits the moment you see it. Because mental health support doesn’t have to feel heavy — sometimes, it can be bright, cheerful, and full of warmth.

The Brights Box is designed with love to be your gentle companion on the days you need it most. A burst of colour, a spark of joy, a quiet reminder that you’re not alone.

It’s not loud or overwhelming — just a soft, steady presence that helps guide you back to yourself. Something you can reach for when you need grounding, comfort, or a little emotional reset.

Think of it as your anchor… wrapped in colour, kindness, and care.
