Sounds easy enough right! No. But in my November challenge we do it together. We journal daily. I give prompts to help or create your own.
Journaling:
Helps with self discovery and gives an emotional and mental release. Will everything be all peaches and love filled no. Just write it out. Then find gratitude for the day.
Allows us to express our deepest feelings and emotions
Frees the repressed energy from our minds
Journaling isn’t about what you write, don’t rush it. Don’t look for an escape, let yourself feel what you feel and allow vulnerability.
After this 30 days you will have a new outlook, you will have a better understanding of your self and others. You will feel less stress. Your mind will have clarity. Most importantly your own emotional pain lessens.
