This is what happens when one Fast Brain Friend simply isn’t enough.
Three of our much-loved daily productivity notebooks, together in three different colours.
Inside, you’ll find the same rotating, bite-sized layouts designed to keep things interesting while helping you organise your thoughts, narrow your focus and turn what’s in your head into action.
Because busy brains like options.
Goes well with:
THREE WAYS TO
ENJOY YOUR
FAST BRAINS
01 EVERY NOTEBOOK HAS 33% MORE PAGES
Noticeably chunkier, but still snack-sized.
Page volume has increased to 64 pages in every notebook including the addition of a dot grid section at the back for bullet journalling, brain dumps, and bright ideas.
The notebooks are still slim, undated and thread sewn. They continue to slip perfectly inside all of your folios (just a touch more girth).
02 SHE'S NEVER FELT BETTER IN YOUR HANDS
The matte laminate is gone. We wanted to marry up our planner range with the same durable, tactile finish of our Hobby Note range, making sure your entire collection looks and feels like they belong together.
Fast Brain notebooks are now printed in a richer offset colour, both inside and out, all on uncoated 300gsm craft.
03 WE'VE MORE THAN DOUBLED THE DAILY LAYOUT OPTIONS AND SORTED THEM INTO MODES FOR YOU
The old edition shuffled the same 7 designs week after week. New Season Fast Brains have 16.
The new layouts can be categorised into Circular, Spine, Buckets or Timeblock - each built for a different kind of day and chosen based on what the behavioural science says actually works when the focus is hard to find.
The new layouts have been built off 5 more years of knowledge in the field of neurodiversity, and road testing from hundreds of thousands of users on how your brain truly interacts with the layouts.
They are incredibly special (and fun).
04 THE LAYOUTS HAVE BUILT IN PARALYSIS BREAKERS
Some of the most common feedback from new users was that feeling of paralysis when approaching different layouts for the first time.
So we built small, unobtrusive guidance into every layout to help you push past this moment.
These prompts give more insight into not just how a certain layout can be approached, but what is happening in your brain when you do it (pretty cool right).
Importantly - these sections remain nothing more than helpful ideas. You can still choose to use them in entirely different ways... we secretly love when you do.
05 BUILT AROUND YOUR DAYS, NOT YOUR CALENDAR
This might actually be the most important change. Fast Brain notebooks were originally built in a way that felt like they should only last a month at a time. But the reality is that not every day needs to be plotted out.
What we have found is that most people keep a Fast Brain on hand for fuzzy days, and then accompany that with one of our other notebooks for organising their actual calendar.
The increase in density of each notebook plus the shift in how layout modes work has been an ackowledgement of how people are really using the notebooks, and is why it's no longer tied to a month at all.
It's okay if one notebook lasts you months a time.
We also shifted the weekly preparation spreads to the back of the notebook. Daily focus layouts drive the goal of a Fast Brain, but weekly prep remains an option for when your executive functioning just ain't functioning.
FAST BRAIN HAS BEEN PRINTED, SEWN AND SHIPPED OUT OVER 1.5 MILLION TIMES SINCE 2021. THIS NEW SEASON MARKS OUR BIGGEST IMPROVEMENTS TO THE METHOD EVER.

WHO AM I?
I'm here to make the chaos feel survivable. I'm not trying to turn you into a perfectly organised person. I just want to help you find the missing thought and make the next step feel smaller.
My job is to stand beside the mess, take your side immediately and remind you that the plan changing does not mean you have failed.
I want you to feel like your brain is not the problem. It just needs a friend who knows how to keep up.

HOW IT WORKS
Trying to understand the Fast Brain method? We've simplified the science behind it into the 5 biggest reasons people find Fast Brain such a game changer.
How it's built
One day in view
One day to a page, so there is less to feel behind on — and room beside it to park whatever else the day throws at you.Four layout families
Circular, Spine, Buckets and Time Block. Rotate to whichever one your brain will cooperate with today.A week that starts planned
Priorities, fixed commitments, habits, meals and the shopping, settled before the week starts.Why that works
Built for momentum
A new colour every month, and checkboxes and trackers throughout. Small enough to finish, rewarding enough to keep going.Calm by design
Tactile covers, calm tones, thread binding and quiet pages. Nothing that jangles, and less to look at while you think.Image 01

Circular Visual/spatial thinking • Reflection • Low-demand
Think of your day as a whole shape, not a vertical to-do list. Circular layouts are low-pressure, generous and visual. Nothing reads as a long, intimidating column, you take the whole day in at a glance.
Turn to it when…
You're overwhelmed and a long to-do list feels like too much.
Spine Breakdown a big task • Structured days • Linear views
One central axis the whole day hangs off. Where circular layouts let you float, spines make you anchor. A structured backbone for days when you need something solid to hold onto and branch from.
Turn to it when…
You need structure and something solid to anchor to.
Buckets Low time-pressure • Clear mental overload • Prioritise
Empty the swarm onto the page, then sort it into containers. This is the most literal expression of the method: externalise your working memory, then triage.
Turn to it when…
Your head is loud and full, and you need to empty it out.
Timeblock Stop over-planning • Simplify time perception
The playful answer to time-blindness. Allocate hours and see clear progress on the page, without it feeling like a rigid corporate planner.
Turn to it when…
The day is packed or time keeps slipping away from you.

Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 4.6 / 5 from 7312 reviews.
Great layout that is flexible and easily personalised. A great way of planning my whole week so I can see it at once. The paper is a really good quality and I haven’t had any ink bleed through. I’m not sure about the new checklist pages at the back, they could have got a few more planner pages in there. I’ve been using this weekly planner for over and year and will continue to use them, they help me keep track of my life.
I’ve put two of your notebooks in it along with an A5 hard cover notebook and it all looks perfectly fine. Leather was right colour as ordered and very smooth. I look forward to many years of using them.
Maybe I didn't read all the print properly and got excited about the colour but I thought the folio would be leather and feel substantial like leather does. This didn't do it for me as I hate the smell of anything artificial.
Really like the new planners
The Salty Plum is as gorgeous in person as it is in the pictures. No wonder you run out of it. The cover is very soft and the stitching around the edges gives it a professional and complete look. Even though its journey was long, it was worth the wait. I am enjoying my new journal and am very pleased with my choice. Thank you!
The quality of the folio was not quality material and the color did not look like the photos. It all felt cheaply made. I was disappointed that I spent that much money and time waiting for this item
Love the new Fast Brain Friend, have decided to alternate between old and new to keep it interesting. One thing I love is the word should has been removed from all the pages, it always made me feel guilty. Plus I cover the instructions once I have read them to make the pages for me more attractive. But 10 out of 10 for the new design.
How flippin gorgeous is the new packaging and look at those colours! 😍
Love the journal cover, a bit more of a blue pink than I was expecting but it’s soft leather and works absolutely perfectly with my large moleskine note books (6 of them!)
I love the blush colour - so pretty and fresh! I just wish it was possible to get filofax organiser holes drilled in it. My attempts with the drill are nasty! This is my second 26 week book, and it has been so very useful to my organisation. Thank you.
Love everything except that the lines are a bit small for my writing. Love the layout .
Beautifully made & crafted ❤️ Love all the different designs and books in a book!
I didn't get the spring planner. I got runners. Complained with photos and got same thing.
Beautiful quality and a joy to use.
This weekly planner is just what I was looking for. Thin and light to carry around. A minimal schedule and lot of space for tasks and a little bit of notes. I didn’t expect to use the meal tracker/planner but that’s been useful too.
I’m using it
Quality of items is stellar, and customer service was amazing!
Very nice quality and it's very soft to the touch. Exactly what I wanted! The customer service is also top tier - they were nice enough to give me a partial refund of an order that was stolen. I would love it if they extended the list of countries they ship to so that I can buy more stuff and have them delivered here.
Perfection. I wish there was a magnetic way to keep them with my notebooks.
Super highlighters! Great colours. Immediately dry on application. Easy to use.
Safely and beautifully packed. So well packed it can withstand poor delivery practices! Love using these books. Efficient process through to receipt. Happy return buyer.
It took a long time to arrive - but it was worth the wait!
It's amazing! Can't get enough
Love them. Thanks!
There’s no instructions for using the tool, it just shows up and as a person with add it’s overwhelming to look at these pages and have no idea what to do first, second etc.
This entire kit is so beautiful and gives a calm organised vibe! The personalised embossing is the ultimate addition for this special 21st gift!
Very slow postage. I am quite disappointed in them as they are very limited, as in usage. However, I do like the meal planner. I just wish I hadn’t purchased a year’s worth.
Never received it, altought it was included as a free gift.
Store owner replied: Thank you Emilie for letting us know, I have reached out to review your order for you xx
Not sure yet, seems a little too loose for me.
The rainbow charm is super cute and adds joy when I open my planner.
So excited to start a new year with this fast brain… I need it. Love it!
Still learning to use this but so far I really like it. It’s a very good way to keep my thoughts organized. Excited to try the updated version
Just what I wanted! It’s the perfect sized folio and holds my notebooks perfectly. The video tutorials were so helpful
My personalization is perfect! Just what I wanted!
As a teacher this is the best planner I have ever chosen. It is engaging and motivating to use!!
Beautiful! Love my set.
The cover is terrible quality- it’s not like what looked like in the advertisement- the inserts were fine- I would prefer my money back -
