Journaling is one of my most favorite things to do. I encourage all of my clients to do it, as it helps you to release things about yourself that you may have otherwise suppressed. Here are 5 journal ideas that can help with your personal growth.
Journaling can be the outlet you need to express yourself in so many different ways. I have multiple journals to cover the varied topics of feelings and emotions my being experiences. The rollercoaster ride of emotions happens to us all and with my journals, I’m able to address all of those issues.
Journals to Start the Day
I have this amazing “Good Morning Journal”☀️ that helps you start your day positively, by helping you with time management. Each day, you get to breakdown how you’re feeling, why you’re feeling that way, and set the intention for how you want the day to feel. On top of that, you can create a list that plans out your day so you can be your most productive. This is a MUST-HAVE for any business owner.
Journals for matters of the heart
Intimacy and emotional openness is an area that I’m trying to grow in. I have a “Love” journal, in which I express my feelings and relationship with the idea of love. I share my struggles, my hopes, and my desires in that journal.
Reaching Your Youthful Side
In my “Younger Self” journal, I speak to the young Kimberly that I tucked away in an effort to protect her. This journal is so healing. It’s crazy because when I write, my younger Self speaks back through the pen. This journal idea has helped me to en able to heal some of my past traumas.
Money Talks
In my Financial journal🤑, I talk about my relationship with money. As a victim of financial abuse, it took me years to heal from that type of betrayal. With journaling, I’ve been able to pinpoint my money triggers and reframe the perspective of money use in my life. Journaling helped me do that.
Journaling Works
I use my Career journal💼, to let my creative juices flow. This way, I can dream and visualize what my business will look like. I write out my monthly, quarterly, and yearly plans for my business. I jot down new ideas that may or may not be implemented and so on. It’s a great way to brainstorm on paper about your business, services, or career aspects.
These are just a few of the many journal ideas I use to help me understand myself. I have even more on my dreams, family, friendships, and self-love. Journaling is such a therapeutic way to align yourself.
Sometimes, I wonder if I am I the only person with so many journals? Am I? Do you practice journaling? Let me know your favorite journal in the comments.
