Journaling


I've mentioned writing in your journal in several of my earlier posts, but thought I would bring it up again just in case you haven't quite gotten the habit down yet. I still struggle with it myself, so I know how hard it can be. But I also know how much more clarity I have about my life, my goals, my dreams, when I do journal.

I like to journal in a planner. I found a great one at Target - the Weekly/Monthly Planner by Blue Sky. I like it because it has both a monthly and a weekly calendar for each month ... so I use the monthly one for appointments, etc. and the weekly format for my actual journaling. I try to do a gratitude journal each day - at least 3 things I'm grateful for, as well as a dream journal if I remember my dreams from the night before. And then I also just journal about my day - any synchronicities I've experienced, any inspiration that came to me during my meditation, etc.

I admit that there are weeks when I get very little written in my journal. But I never give up on the idea ... I carry it with me always and write in it whenever something comes up that I want to remember.

Thanks for being here and now.

  1. I have yet to keep a journal. I am intrigued with the idea that it could help me accomplish goals and give me clarity.

    My mom kept a journal for years and it was remarkable how many times we would refer back to it.
