How Journaling Transformed My Life
Description
When you need to get something done, it helps to have a great tool to help you.
Need to hang a picture? Use a hammer and nail.
Want clean teeth? A toothbrush and floss are your friends.
Want to process your thoughts? Journal.
Keeping thoughts and emotions bottled up inside is a recipe for stress, tension, uncertainty, and wheel spinning.
Whether you love writing or not, journaling is a truly effective tool for creating a better life. In this episode, you’ll learn ten ways to use journaling as a tool of inner-self care in just a few minutes a day.
Take five minutes to listen to how I use journaling as my tool of choice to:
- Express gratitude
- Have a conversation with God
- Gain clarity by pouring out overthinking
- Get unstuck
- Sort out feelings
- Remember what’s important
- Capture ideas
- Slay mental dragons
- Dream
- Keep lists of all kinds
Your brain is happier when it has a chance to breathe. Journaling gives your brain time to relax and not hang on so tightly. Your mind gets the distance and perspective it needs to come up with new solutions.
You wouldn’t dream of skipping the five minutes it takes to brush your teeth. Today you’ll see why your ten minutes journal time will become part of your new go-to self care ritual.
Enjoy!
