FOR BEGINNERS
Hello, friend,
Congrats on taking the first step towards your journaling practice!

Although it may seem small, journaling can really impact your life.

Getting things off of your chest and onto paper can help you not only face your
emotions and heal, but also be a way for you to get to know yourself better.

✦✦✦

As the English writer William Thackeray once said:

"There are a thousand thoughts lying within a human that she doesn’t know till
she takes up the pen to write."

Now after years of journaling, I can see how true it is! I hope you’ll get to
experience this too.

✦✦✦

Tips for journaling

● You may enjoy some prompts more than others and it’s alright.
○ When choosing the prompt, feel free to follow your inner guidance.
○ However, keep in mind that sometimes the resistance may show
there are some treasures hiding behind that topic.

● Don’t be afraid to stray off-topic.


○ The prompts are only for your inspiration.
○ Sometimes, great insights come from unexpected tangents. Let
yourself go with the flow.

Just keep writing

There’s no magic trick to making journaling a habit — just keep coming back to
your journal daily with an intention to write at least 2 sentences (baby steps!).

Usually, the first few lines open up the gate for further flow of thoughts. You
may suddenly realize you’ve just caught a writing wave. Ride it, dive deep and sail
to your deserted islands.
Even if you end up with a few sentences, it’s already huge — don’t forget to sink
into the sweet feeling of connecting with yourself.

The key is to keep turning up to the practice, treat yourself kindly and view it as a
play.

You’ve got this, enjoy the journey!

All my best,

Deimante
