Amy Muscoplat’s Tip to #Start2021Now
Start mindful journaling for wellness. The more we get into the habit of using our journals to write down what’s happening in life – or what we want to happen – and journaling our thoughts and feelings about it, the more this becomes a habit. You can also use journaling prompts to help give your journaling a jump-start.
After you’ve taken time to write in your journal, you’ll want to try to write a short (1-2 line) reflection about “what you notice about what you wrote,” or “what stands out to you about what you wrote,” or “what calls to you to take action” after having re-read your journal entry. Taking this time after journaling to write a short, mini-reflection can help open you up to using your journal-writing practice for both self-compassion and forward momentum-building in life. Journal on friends…
