Wellness Tip: Journal every morning
📌Save this tip for later. You'll be happy to have a list of pick-me-ups to pull from.
Based on the techniques in Julia Cameron's book, The Artist's Way, I stream of consciousness write three pages in my journal every morning when I wake up. I write everything that comes to my mind for three whole pages.📝
The goal is to brain-dump everything in your mind so you can uncover the important stuff. The goal is also to discover and prioritize your needs, interests, and desires so you can find a small way to make them happen.💚
My favorite part of the technique outlined in the book is never rereading any of the writing. Get it out and move on. The key is to keep moving because it is the journey and discovery that becomes so valuable in the day-to-day.
Through my journaling, I've increased my confidence and belief in myself. We've all talked about overcoming imposter syndrome. I've found that journaling helps, along with the commitment to quit negative self-talk.❤️
Do you have a journaling practice? What are your techniques? How has it helped you?
