Ways To Journal
Hello Beautiful Souls,
We have completed the introduction class, Pen, Paper and Healing and I am SO pleased with the responses! I can hardly wait to share more with you.
I have been asked this question many times since I started the Pen, Paper & Healing Series… an Introduction to Journaling and Tapping…
What if someone wants to journal yet they don’t like writing, or perhaps they physically can’t write?
If someone prefers not to write a lot physically but still wants to journal, there are various alternative ways to engage in the practice. Journaling is about self-reflection and expression, and it doesn't have to be limited to traditional writing. Here are some alternative ways to journal for those who prefer different mediums:
Audio Journaling:
Record your thoughts, feelings, and reflections using voice memos or recording apps. This is an excellent option for individuals who find it more natural to speak than to write.
Visual Journaling:
Create a visual journal using images, drawings, or collages. Use pictures from magazines, photographs, or your own artwork to convey your emotions and experiences. I love using stickers with motivational sayings on them.
Bullet Journaling:
Use a bullet journaling system that involves short, concise entries with bullet points. This method allows for quick and organized expression without the need for lengthy paragraphs.
Digital Journaling:
Type your journal entries on a computer or tablet. There are various digital journaling apps that allow you to record your thoughts electronically.
Mind Mapping:
This is a favourite of mine too. Especially for brainstorming ideas. Create mind maps to visually represent your thoughts and ideas. This can be a more creative and non-linear way to explore your feelings and experiences.
Gratitude Journaling:
Can be one word or one sentence.
One-Sentence Journaling:
Summarize your day or express a feeling in just one sentence. This approach allows for quick reflection without the need for lengthy writing.
List Journaling:
Create lists to organize your thoughts and reflections. This can be lists of goals, things you're grateful for, or accomplishments.
Remember, the goal of journaling is personal expression and self-reflection, and there's no one-size-fits-all approach. Experiment with different methods to find what feels most comfortable and authentic for you.
I hope you will try it, learn to incorporate it as a daily habit and love journaling as much as I do!
