The value of journaling

I’ve come to realise over the years that jounaling one’s thoughts has an enormous value in terms of “letting go” of needless worries. Sometimes it is just too hard to express our thoughts verbally but somehow these can be written down more easily and that in itself becomes comforting. You can scrawl away in anger or despair and then close the book and sleep more easily.

By the same method you can scribble down plans and hopes and dreams and even if these can’t yet be expressed or shared with anyone, you have found comfort in the writing down of ideas. You can have a book next to your bed and should you wake in the night you can journal your thoughts and then get back to sleep. For all the clients who have listened to my suggestion of journaling – keep up the good work!!
