Our story

A quiet place to begin again

For anyone new to their faith, or finding their way back to it.

The Practice Journal began as a Sikh journal: ninety mornings of reflection, first printed as a hardcover and then made into an iPhone app.

We made it for people who are new to their faith, or coming back to it after time away, and who want somewhere quiet to begin without feeling they should already know everything. That need is not only Sikh.

So the journal now includes Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam and Judaism alongside Sikhi, each in its own voice and its own words. The result is not a book to be read but a practice to be kept: a few quiet minutes a day.

What we hold to

Our principles

I

Describe, never rule

Each tradition is described as it understands itself. We do not rank traditions, settle debates within them or speak for any religious authority.

II

Every word explained

Terms, seasons and practices are explained in plain words the first time they appear. Nothing assumes you grew up with them.

III

Reviewed before release

A journey is released only after people who know and practise its tradition have reviewed it.

IV

Private by design

Your writing stays on your phone. No ads, and no subscription: you buy what you want, once.

The Practice Journal is independent. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by any religious organisation.
