Isn’t it amazing how we can use journaling to shift our mood, lighten our load, understand ourselves, and so much more!

Love this so much! Those 5 years journals are often way too small! How hard did you have to look to find one with 365 pages?

Doesn’t it feel so great to see your track record all in one place like that! Well done!

I have to put a limit on how much news I absorb and when. I try not to listen to news at night or first thing in the morning. And I really try to balance by looking for the good, looking for the helpers, and looking for small things I can do to make an impact - even if they don’t feel like enough.

I feel this so hard. Developing ways to track my goals as I go always helps me ensure I remember and work toward them. Journaling has been super helpful for me here.

This was always a big deal for me too. So I created a one-page journaling sheet that lives on a clipboard above my desk. That’s where I put things like that I really need to remember- my intentions for the day, important action items, etc. Because I can see it, what I write doesn’t disappear.

Just a few ideas of where you can go with this!

Cool. There’s so much you can do with that. One day write an entry all about your favorite things. Another day you can do a day in the life entry. What does a typical day look like? Maybe reflect on something you are currently enjoying, what about it do you love? How does it make you feel?

Yes. All of it. I always like to start with what I want my journaling to do for me. And it can look different every day, depending on what I need. It’s definitely a time capsule. But I work hard to not make my journal just a dumping ground for the hard stuff.

I’d start here: why do you want to journal? What do you want it to do for you?
From there you can figure out the how. And the when.

I’m so glad you tried something new! So many people stop journaling because one way doesn’t work for them so they assume none of them will (or they don’t know there are other ways!)

I have one main journal that everything goes in. I go through 3-4 of them a year. I also have a birthday journal and a year end reflection journal to keep those together. And a daily one pager that I keep on a clipboard above my desk. No stickers. Usually black pen only.

When we’re doing the work and feeling all the feels we don’t usually let ourselves sit with, it’s powerful. Keep going! Journaling won’t always be like this! Especially if you create a regular practice!
