Let me guess: your current self-care routine involves a skin serum you forget to use, a meditation app you keep snoozing, and a pile of adult coloring books you meant to try… someday. Same. So when a friend sent me the link to the Grabie Rock Your Inner Strength Art Club Box, I expected something Pinterest-worthy but probably dusty by next month.
Reader, I was wrong.
This quarterly box is more than an art kit. It’s a guided, therapeutic, creative practice made in collaboration with the American Art Therapy Association, and it’s changing the way I take care of myself, from the inside out.
Here’s how it works: every three months, you receive a thoughtfully designed box (yes, the kind you want to leave on your desk), filled with gorgeous art supplies: shimmering acrylic markers, soft-toned journaling pens, and not one but two watercolor palettes in earthy “Forest” and airy “Floral” themes. But the crown jewel is the 28-day workbook, a self-guided emotional support tool disguised as a cute journal.
The prompts are gentle but powerful:
📌 Let It Go encourages you to release visually what’s weighing you down.
📌 Shine Through Your Words invites you to write affirmations in bold, colorful strokes.
📌 Kindness Challenge tracks how small acts of care ripple outward.
It’s not about being an artist. It’s about permitting yourself to pause. To reflect. To explore what’s going on inside, with compassion and color.
What makes this box extra special is its backing by real therapists. The team at AATA worked with Grabie to ensure every page was built with intention, using practices inspired by art therapy principles. While it’s not a substitute for seeing a licensed art therapist, it is a meaningful way to support your emotional health on your terms.
And it doesn’t hurt that 10% of every workbook sale goes back to AATA to fund their mental health programs and advocacy efforts. Yes—your me-time is paying it forward.
Even the logistics are a dream:
🎨 $49.99 per box if you subscribe (or $59.99 one-time)
🎨 You can skip any quarter if the theme doesn’t vibe with you
🎨 Each edition is revealed on Instagram and via email before you’re charged
🎨 Ships in March, June, September, and December
I started the workbook on a rainy Sunday and didn’t realize how much I’d been holding in until I found myself painting little blue circles next to a line that read, “What are you carrying that isn’t yours?”
That’s the thing about this box. It’s beautiful, yes. But it’s also deep. It gives you space to reconnect with your voice, rhythm, and resilience.
So if you’re craving a ritual that’s more than skin-deep, one that celebrates you in all your messy, brilliant, emotional glory, this might be the most Glamour thing you do all year.
