Start your year in a contemplative, restful and creative way with a fabulous selection of "Mini Meditations" books from Liminal 11 Publishing

Some of our favourite creative folk are behind two brilliant and inspirational little books from innovative publishers Liminal 11.

Well known for their mindful and soothingly relaxing titles, Liminal 11's new "Mini Meditations" series is a real treat for the eyes and the mind.

Starting with "Mini Meditations on Joy" from comic superstars Adam and Lisa Murphy, this diminutive but packed little pocket-sized book is full of wisdom and inspirational quotes from historical and contemporary figures ranging from The Dalai Lama to Maya Angelou.

Fans of Adam and Lisa's "Corpse Talk" will instantly love the art style and illustrations that accompany each quote. We giggled a bit at the forewords from Adam and Lisa (where Adam comes across as slightly curmudgeonly and even a bit grumpy, whereas Lisa is absolutely effervescent and enthusiastic!)

"Mini Meditations on Joy" by Adam and Lisa Murphy is out now, published by Liminal 11. 

There's also the truly brilliant "Mini Meditations on Creativity" from supernova-bright comic star Tillie Walden.

Completely in love with her graphic novel work, I was delighted to find her utterly mesmerising artwork accompanying this set of thoughtful quotes about creativity, again from some of the most famous (and not so famous) creative souls in history and popular culture.

Tillie's drawings fit each inspirational quote absolutely perfectly, and these two books are absolutely fantastic if you want a quick booky gift to give to your favourite person for practically any occasion.

"Mini Meditations on Creativity" by Tillie Walden is out now, published by Liminal 11.
