Believe it or not, science has suggested that journaling might be linked with benefits like improved immune system functioning and asthma relief, as well as improved mental health. Why? It is quite a hazy topic, but remember that the mind affects our physical bodies far more than we know. If you have not already, read this past blog post on our amazing mind-body connections.
Alongside the surprising benefits journaling has on the body are the more well-known benefits: stress reduction, self-awareness, and emotional articulation are among them. If you do not already, give journaling a try for the next seven days, and observe its ability to connect you to and release you from your innermost thoughts and feelings. Monitor your body for any physical effects that might arise as well. Here are seven prompts to get you started: 1. Write about a time when you “danced like nobody was watching”: a time where you let loose and were yourself. 2. Write about a time when you felt happy for someone else. 3. Write about something that happened today that caused you anxiety. 4. Write about a favorite childhood memory. 5. Write about an area of your life which you wish to improve. 6. Make a Top 10 list of the places in the world you most want to visit. 7. Write about someone who inspired you today.
