Ep 20: Dear Me: The Power of Journaling
Episode summary:
Research has shown that journaling has positive effects on sleep, stress, and overall happiness. You don’t need to journal every day to see the benefits – you only have to journal when you feel like it. Isn’t that an easy form of self care?
Jennifer talks about different forms of journaling and how even writing out a task list can be a form of journaling. As long as what you’re writing is helping you to organize or work through the thoughts in your head, it’s journaling.
Do you write things down? Do you keep a journal? I’d love to hear about your journaling practices.
