Journaling has so many benefits…
It’s an excellent way to reflect on your thoughts and feelings, develop a clearer understanding of your own emotions, enhance your sense or wellbeing and pave the way to notable achievements.
Plus, it’s a productive way to unwind and relieve stress, with no judgement!
However, when you’re just getting started it can feel daunting.
Finding the right words, stirring the quiet thoughts or igniting that spark of self-discovery – all while staring at an empty page – can be intimidating.
Don’t worry! We’re here to help you get over the writer’s block. Here are 30 days of Journaling Prompts to help you when you feel stuck.
