Journal Promts For Your Your Health & Wellness Journey
Journaling can be an incredible tool to help declutter the mind, focus on our goals and work through challenging thoughts or emotions. I’ve been shocked at some of the realizations I have come to me after sitting down to write in my journal. I think one of the most beautiful parts of journaling is finding these realizations and the opportunity to grow from them, but also journaling comes in so many different styles and formats so you can really make the experience your own. There is no one size fits all when it comes to journaling! Did you know that The act of writing something down helps you commit it to memory? This is why I think journaling can be such a powerful tool for anyone trying to make changes to their health and wellbeing. The more tools we can bring on to help us stay committed to our goals the less times we’ll get side tracked or feel defeated. If journaling has been a part of your routine for a long time or you’re just getting started I bet you’ll find some great questions to get your mind turning!
Our health and wellness
Our health and wellness is an incredibly individualized thing. No one else on this planet will have the same history, body, goals or challenges that you do. Although that may feel a little overwhelming at first I invite you to see it as liberating. There is no right or wrong way to move along this journey, because it's yours and no one else's. I also know that our health and wellbeing is an extremely sensitive topic for some people because of past or present experiences, societal pressures or even pressure from family and friends. If any of the journal prompts below seem triggering or bring up icky feelings please skip them.
