This is my fifth year using the DreamBook. I think it is superior overall, but they must have changed the paper type in this year's version (2021) because I am using the same markers I've always used and now they are bleeding through to the other side. This is very discouraging because I like to color the mandalas and now that can only be done with colored pencils. The content is thought provoking, though, and I really like the layout.

This is very thin paper and I'm really disappointed. They claim it is 70 pound text (which is equivalent to 28 pound bond/printer paper and is 105 grams) but I have worked in printing and this is absolutely nowhere near that thick. There is no question about it, especially not when I compare it to my 2020 planner from another company that (correctly) claims its paper is 105 grams. This is closer to cheap copier paper. That paper is 20 pound bond which is 50 pound text and 75 grams. I tested it by using the same pens on copier paper and even that handles my journaling pens marginally better than this with very slightly less bleed and also less indentation. I don't write that hard and my old planner has no indentations. The design and content of the planner is good, but every pen I use either bleeds through or ghosts. I really want to use it, especially considering it's an expensive planner, but I think it's going to annoy me trying to write on this paper the way I'd like to. Being super careful doesn't exactly make me feel creative. I gave it three stars only because of the really good design and content quality. :(

This planner encourages you to do a deep dive into your life and helps you look beyond this year at your long-term goals. I'm learning how to think in more detail about my future and this planner provides a lot of encouragement to do so. I especially appreciate the section at the end of each day to write what you are grateful for.

So far so good, I like how it reframes how we look at our priorities and helps put into prospective what we do daily while also making space where it would normally be a dreaded to-do list.
Traci V.
I'd be lost without my planner. It helps me to break yearly goals into obtainable daily projects. This last year (2020) my planner was the boat that I navigated the chaos around me and found the serenity within me.
Clara R.
My friend showed me her dragon tree planner a few months ago. I puzzled over purchasing it until December and I have not regretted it! This dream book is exactly what I've been waiting for in my life! I am excited to see what I can accomplish with it!
Tabatha G.
I previously purchased the Dreambook/Planner in 2014 or 2015 and it helped me get so clear in a year when I really needed to focus my attention. I love the new color options. This is definitely one of the few planners that has helped me to connect all the dots to manifest my truest self.
Sharon M.
Very detailed. Great instructions.

This is my 4th year using this amazing planner! This time I went all in for the planner bundle. When it came in the mail I felt like I was holding the magic beans of creation! It is a true joy to indulge in this creative process. I feel empowered that my dreams will land in my experience in a light hearted and productive way which celebrates my individuality within my community. Even the cat wants to bask in the good vibes! Best planner out there!
Carrie V.
It really made me come to the truth. I felt i was applying for a life with the people i could only hope to be a part of. As if i answered truthful its right at my grasp.

This will be my third year using the Dreambook planner and I love it. It’s been useful in many ways, most of all it’s facilitated a deeper relationship with myself and a greater appreciation for my life. It’s helped me step into the driver’s seat of my experience and that sense of confidence is invaluable.
Megan D.
What a beautiful planner!!!!
Julie B.
I love this planner - it allows you to dig deeper into who you are.
Rene Z.
I am really enjoying the dreambook so far. It has been motivating to “go deep” with the first part of the process in preparing for the year.
I mentioned it to a friend and she ordered it instantly.
Jennifer G.
I was searching for something more than just a planner and found this. It is beautifully made with intent to touch every part of your life.
jennifer c.
For someone who overthinks & can become easily overwhelmed & discouraged, this journal is a great guideline for getting back to what matters & align ones priorities.
Bethany D.
Well thought out! Makes accomplishing goals and achieving dreams fun.
Sean R.
Still haven't received my Dec 2nd order... Still patiently waiting.
Elizabeth P.
Haven’t had much of a chance to use but really like what I received. I can’t wait to really start using, helping with my new year.
Carole H.
This has become a standard. As an ordained clergy person, it fits my spiritual approach to life!
Kimberly M.
My journal arrived on the same day my mother died--Christmas Eve. Surprisingly, even in my shock and grief, I opened the package and read the opening pages. In a way, it was replacement guidance for things my mother always wanted me to do, such as focus, make some clear goals, and begin to plan. Today I answered the questions at the beginning and I felt her encouragement. Already, it is a meaningful experience.
On a more practical level, the journal is well-made and high-quality at a fair price, in my opinion. It is attractive and intuitive in its layout. I'm glad I made this purchase.
Leigh F.
This is the first planner I've ever used that was so thorough about getting to the root of my actual goals and dreams, instead of what I'm "supposed" to want. I'm feeling happy and confident about the year ahead, and I have a lot more clarity around what's actually important to me. I've tried all kinds of planners, but I think I've found the last one I'll ever need.
Miriam K.
Not be a "touchy-feely" sort of person, the early sections were a challenge which I initially tried to avoid and dismiss. However, the planning section made clear why they were so important. The process ultimately forced me to confront questions that I had been avoiding for years.
Kari R.
I was delighted to find this dream book/planner. It’s really helping me decide what I truly want and then figuring out how to get it. I see this is a great way to hold myself in integrity to my own desires. Wonderful book for anybody who wants to take their life to the next level.
Dawn O.
Love my planner! However you've gone with a thinner paper and now I can't use my favorite pens. Please don't skimp on the quality of the paper as it's very important to many of us.
Carlene M.
was sent the wrong color but i've got a cover so no problem.
Susan S.
I just received it and am looking forward to working on the pages. It sounds interesting and I am ready to begin.
Jacquelyn O.
I LOVE these notebooks they Are beyond amazing!
Rhonda H.
I know I will love it once it arrives. It says shipped but it’s not moving. Haha! ♀️
Cheryl J.
This is my 3rd Dream Book Planner. I use stickers, colored pens, and fun bookmarks. Then I let my imagination run wild. About to take a big leap into a new life chapter and would not do it without this perfect guide book. Already started planning 2021 and can't wait to dive in 100%. Thank you so much for this wonderful life tool.
cherie M.
Beautiful book. More than a day planner. Hopefully it will get to be used in 2021.
Christi B.
I just received it and have started using it. So excited to continue
Amanda .
I bought this planner for myself in October, to fire up my intentions, goals and dreams. After realizing what a wonderful tool for growth it is, I bought 4 more for my co - workers! I know they'll love it as much as I already do!
Lacey G.
I love the planner/dream book, this is my second year using one. I was a little sad with some of the mistakes found in the book; but overall very satisficed with my purchase.
Nadine R.
This is my second year with the Dreambook planner. It truly has the tools needed to stay on track as a busy mom, a business owner, a student and a goal crusher.
Ali L.
I'd love to give this planner 5 stars because it's my 4th year using it and I LOVE the setup and everything about it (especially the color choices) except one important detail. I took one star off because I'm disappointed by the thinner paper this year. It's a thinner planner in general because of it, and I'm worried that my colored pens will bleed through. I use Staedtler Triplus Rollerballs as well as Flair pens and I can definitely see them bleeding more than in years past. Hopefully DA will fix this for 2022! But as for the content of the planner, this one can't be beat.
Joanne R.
Just got my planner a few days ago! A wonderful journey answering the questions. Thank you for this thoughtfully constructed tool to shape a productive year and beyond.
Anastasie L.
I have been using the calendar from Dragontree for the past 4 years. These calendars have become part of my routine and part of my planning ritual. I love the spiral bound calendar that came out a few years ago and the moon cover that I bought this year is just beautiful.
Elaine B.
I absolutely love this Dream Book & Planner! I do a great deal of visualizing the future for myself and with my coaching clients. I love that I have on place to capture my own vision and supporting plans and goals and projects in one beautiful book.
Crystal D.
This planner is more than I was expecting. There is a free-form structure to it that speaks to my ADHD brain in a great way. I am looking forward to becoming more grounded in myself with the help of this planner
Lisa H.
I am using the dream book for 3 years now - such a lovely creative way to set goals and accomplish them !!
Alyssa F.
So excited to use this planner for 2021. Only disappointed that its green when I ordered periwinkle
Lindsey H.
I absolutely love my planner and cannot wait to start using it to plan for a wonderful new year ahead!
Carole H.
I really, really love the organization and content; However the paper is so thin that my favorite pens bleed through.
Andrea G.
Round 2 for the Hubby and I. This is the first planner that I have ever stuck to using and I love it. Despite not having much to do in 2020, this planner helped me keep on task, and not get lost in the groundhog days of the lockdown. I’ve already started working on 2021.
Marta F.
This is my second year ordering one of these planners, and I am so excited to continue with the monthly planning tasks, as well as wrapping up the year and planning 2021. This is such a wonderful product.
Eleanor H.
Best calendar ever. This is my fourth year and it helps to keep my personal and spiritual goals in the forefront of my life. You can look back and see how much you have changed and accomplished. Love it. Everyone should have one. The world would be a better place.
Ann W.
I wish you could come out with one for older people. I am retired and do not work, etc You need to adapt one from this one for us. I am 72
Susan S.
I have used the Dreambook for 4 years and love it. It keeps me up to date and on track with my projects. I tried another planner during this year but quickly returned back to my dreambook. I appreciate your optimistic outlook on life and your support.
Tandy-Marie S.
My friend and I love our dream books! We really like the way you’ve changed the months and spread them out instead of lumped them together by three months. Very nice change.
We were hoping you’d change the weekly “bootcamp” to a weekly “reset”. What do you think? We think the terminology is more accessible and meaningful.
Nancy N.
This is a very helpful break down of how to achieve anything you want.
I wish there was a December section as a preplanning activity.
Kary H.
It’s very heavy. I will have to find something smaller that I can use everyday and carry in my bag.
Cindy S.
I love this planner and have used it for several years. The prompts help you to set goals and prioritize what is most important for the year. I am amending an earlier review for the 2021 planner, however, because as I have started using it like other reviewers I am very disappointed by the thinner paper in this year's version. Even regular felt tip pens bleed through the pages. I will still enjoy the exercises and mind maps, but hope that next year's planner will have the thicker paper.
Jill S.
I was so excited when this came in the mail! I purchased the green color and it's beautiful. I've bought one a couple years ago and never followed through. I feel 2021 is the year!
Kat
I LOVED last year's planner (2020) so much that I didn't hesitate buying the new one for 2021. It is still the same beautiful planner but unfortunately now it has thinner paper so the pens I use bleed through (I used the same pens last year with no visible traces on the next page), which will make it a little less enjoyable for me. It's still a great planner though!
Mia T.
I bought the 2020 one and absolutely loved it- I definitely needed next year and will get the 2022 when it comes out. It helps me to goal set and get more accomplished. It is fun. I really recommend it!
Nicole Z.
I bought this planner as a Christmas gift! I can hardly wait to give it to her!
Hazel D.
2021 will be an epic year by using this planner in all it's glory!
Deneece C. L.
I haven't actually started using it yet! I'm reading all the details so I'll be able to use it to my best advantage! I'm looking forward to getting started with it at the beginning of the year!
gwendolyn o.
I buy at least two every year, I love them. The planners make great holiday gifts.
Annie P.
Love my Greenwood Dreambook/Planner. This will be my 5th year using the Dreambook/Planner and I love it. I find it keeps me centered and on task with the goals I set. If you work the planner, the planner works !!!!! In 2020, it being 2020 after all, I managed to spill a cuppa tea on my Planner in February. I set it in front of a heater vent and let it dry. It was a little misshapen for the remainder of the year, but worked just as well, and it kind of held a special place in my heart for surviving the 2020 Tea Party. Will continue to use the Dreambook/Planner for as long as it continues to be published.
Dale P.
Pleased with it and will be giving it as a present.
Dale P.
Part of a Christmas bundle but as beautiful in person as it looked on site.
Dale P.
Part of a Christmas bundle but is beautful.
Tara W.
Of course it’s not yet 2021 so I haven’t started using the planner portion of the book yet but I definitely have started with the goal setting portion. I love it. It’s difficult for me to know what I DO want but there are so many questions that get you to really think about what it is you want to strive for.
Annette B.
I love how easy and thorough the planner is. There is a place for everything and keeps me accountable weekly.
Mary F.
The Dreambook planner is so worth the money. It's enabled me to become better organize and more creative, along with helping me stick to the goals I've set for myself.
Highly recommend for anyone looking to make their dreams become reality.
Kari T.
By far my absolute favorite yearly planner. I love that I am able to dig deep to explore my emotions and desires. Then, using that to plan out my year and follow my dreams.
I recommend this planner for those who want to live their life intentionally.
Wendy J.
If you want to live with more passion and purpose, I highly recommend this planner, which includes areas for visualizing your dream life, goal planning, tracking goals and habits, life balance, daily intentions, reflection, and blank pages. I'm a longtime planner junkie. Every year, I research planners, and for the third year, I've chosen this one. It's hands-down my favorite.
Elizabeth W.
This is a picture of me achieving what I set out to in my planner—even in a pandemic. I’m about to start my fourth year using the Dreambook and I will never use another planner! It is the best. And the Greenwood color is the best color yet!
Doreen R.
I love the spiral ... I can lay it open on my desk and all my reminders are right there! Also easy to flip to another section. Had the bound version before so I'm really going to enjoy this so much more.
Richelle T.
This is my 3rd planner! This has really helped me keep organized! I also love the weekly exercises.
Meredith G.
I love that it gives you examples and tips for structuring, ritualizing and scheduling. This is my go to planner ever year!
Brenda G.
❤❤❤ This planner!!!!
Bridget S.
I love the new spiral bound version !
Sarah D.
Lovely and beautiful, my only critique is that the paper feels very thin and weak; like it would tear quite easily. The thinness also makes it feel cheap and lower quality than the price point warrants. If it had higher quality and more durable paper I would say it’s absolutely perfect.
Lisa K.
Seems very well made. Can't wait to get 2020 behind us so I can use this beautiful book!
Miranda B.
I bought myself the dream book planner a little while ago and my mom really liked it,so this one has the spiral binding that I purchased as an early mother's day gift. Needless to say she loves it, and keeps thanking me for getting her one.
Sabrina B.
This book has you deep diving into who you are and what you want in life. It also helps to keep you organized
Jody P.
I've just received this a few days ago and its for the calendar year 2021. However, there are many questions in the beginning of the book that need to be answered. I am loving this. Its really digging into myself and I'm looking forward to the upcoming year of plans.
Heather O.
I love the Dreambook layout. I do not love the quality of the materials used for 2021. The paper is much thinner than usual, and the pens and markers I have been using all 2020 are all bleeding through enough to make them unusable. Do not plan to use your same art supplies this year, or have it printed on higher-quality paper stock via the PDF version. This is really disappointing.
Mary E.
2021 will be my 3rd year of using the planner dreambook. This has helped me with letting go old patterns into creating new ones. I love the intention that went into creating this dreambook planner. I can feel the energy and it has been instrumental in shifting my inner landscape and experience of peace and gratitude.
Heather B.
It's a great looking product and I am excited to delve into it! On the other hand, for the price I am disappointment that I have to do a "fix" to the spiral bound portion myself and the paper is THIN! Most pens that I am used to using in my previous years planners seem to bleed through or "push" through the paper. For the cost of this item in comparison to my past planners I would have thought that the paper would have been of MUCH higher quality and much thicker.
Rae S.
I have only used the life coaching pages. It’s a lot for me to process so I am glad I got mine a few months before the planner year stArted. I do a few pages of self-work that the book has you go through and it’s incredible. I love the quality of the white cover-thick and sturdy. I love the quality of the paper inside as well. I use lots of planners and this one is positively impacting my life on a daily basis.
Joey E.
This is bound beautifully! So many pages and Excavation tips. I can’t wait to start!
Beth W.
Just received my new Calendar/Planner and have already started filling out the pages and getting ready for the new year to start. Only issue, and this is just personal preference, I really wish there was the option to have the calendar be a Sun-Sat layout, rather than Mon-Sun. Still, I do enjoy all the content that comes with the calendar, really gets the creative juices flowing, and shall be very helpful with my plans for next year.
Sherrylynn M.
I am just starting on it & I can add photos as well as my personal notes
Christina H.
I absolutely love this planner!!! It really helps me with forward thinking for my business and personal goals. I would like to see this planner in a darker color for men, though. I would love to give one to my husband as a gift, but he doesn't like lilac or white, lol. :)
Emily P.
Technical features...
I like very much the sturdy spiral binding that allows the book to lie flat or even be folded back in half for easier handling., the excellent quality of the paper, the notebook size that makes it easy to write in. Unfortunately, the holes punched for the spirals chop off the ends of all words that run close to the inner margin.
Spiritual features...
I am 69 and newly retired. I’ve just spent a year laying my father’s affairs to rest after his passing, so I was looking for guidance for the next phase when I bought the Dreambook.
But I am also married to a someone whose physical and mental health is waning in ways that impact companionship and intimacy. The exercises to imagine my happiest and most perfectly fulfilled life three years down the road Invite me to fantasize either his death or his cure. The first is not something on which I wish to dwell. The latter is, to say the least, improbable.
The Dreambook as it now stands would have been completely appropriate for me as recently as ten years ago, and certainly would have been a godsend forty years ago. For now, I am using it to expand my awareness of my inner resources, and my practical ones, while taking into consideration the formidable constraints of my responsibility to handle someone else’s needs and to make some very difficult decisions..
Carol F.
Think monthly tabs would help
Vicki J.
Another Beautiful Dreambook and Planner for 2021. Can't wait to get started. The thought provoking questions give you the chance to explore yourself and plan for the things you want most in life.
Nancy C.
I purchased the 2020 Planner & Dreambook and although I didn’t get all the blanks filled in, I knew I’d do better in 2021! Absolutely LOVE this planner- and I’ve tried a lot of planners. Cannot imagine being without one in all the years to come!
Karyn S.
Can't wait to use it
Jody H.
What else is there to say. I have been using their Dream Book
& Planner for years. Does it help? YES. Do you need to work at it, YES. Is there rewards, YES. The reward is a new you, a better version of you, a stronger you. And after all it is about YOU. Don’t hesitate anymore, just get it and change to the person that is deep inside and start making you dreams your life, a life you get to live every day. I got the forest green. Love it!!!
Jennifer B.
I bought one in 2019. I loved spending time in my book. Stickers are nice. In 2020 I tried a different date book. Spent twice as much. I am back for 2021. Happy Dance
Loralie B.
This years dreambook is my favorite color. This planner has saved my sanity for several years and I can't imagine life without it. Tanks ever so much. Loralie in Missouri
Karli T.
This helped me start one of my dreams that felt attainable and huge at the same time. I out it in my 10 year plan... and the potential came alive WAY SOONER! The best question for me in this dreambook was "How do you want to feel when you wake up?".
This dreambook + planner helps me support myself.
