Have you ever wanted to try journaling but didn’t know where to start?
During our FINDING CALM workshops, we talked about why journaling can be such a powerful tool — how it helps clear your mind, manage worries, and make sense of your thoughts and feelings. We explored what to write, how to begin, and how journaling can fit into everyday life without feeling like homework.
Journaling is an incredible tool that allows you to express your thoughts and emotions freely. It helps clear your mind, release stress, and gain a deeper understanding of yourself. It’s your private space to be real, without judgment.
Here are the three key things we found most helpful when starting a journaling practice:
How to Get Started:
1.Find a quiet, comfortable space where you can focus without distractions.
2.Grab a notebook or journal that resonates with you—The Yin Tribe Journals are perfect for this, with their unique weekly and monthly check-in prompts designed to help you reflect and grow.
3.Set aside dedicated time each day to write.
What to Write About: WHAT GIVES ME JOY ?
Big things or small things — what made you smile recently? It could be a favourite place or person, lists are great - start with one thought and let the others gently come to mind!
Let the words flow without overthinking. This is your space to be authentic and open.
Benefits of Journaling:
- Gain clarity and perspective on your emotions.
- Release stress and anxiety by expressing your feelings.
- Improve self-awareness and enhance self-expression.
