Benefits of journaling for self love
Sometimes anxiety feels like 100 things swirling round in your head….. most of them negative thoughts.
It really helps to get these thoughts down on paper.
This means you can start to analyse them so they are more organised and become less overwhelming.
Journaling has lots of benefits.
Many of which are different for each person. Here are some of the main ones:
Reduces anxiety, depression and mental health problems.
You get to know yourself better
Provides a sense of clarity
Builds self worth
Helps you organise and analyse problems
Puts things into perspective
Improves your relationship with others
To start, buy yourself a journal where you can write down your thoughts. This can be done daily or a few times a week - whenever you feel you have the time but try and make it a priority for the first few weeks to really feel the benefit.
How often should I write?
You can write as often as you want to.
And as much or as little.
I find that journaling a couple of times a week works well for me to reduce my stress and manage anxiety.
IMPORTANT: Journaling will only help you if you actually do it!!!
Keep your journal somewhere accessible and try and fit it regularly into your routine.
This makes it easier to remember.
I usually write just before I do my positive affirmations for confidence.
If you are new to journaling, start off doing it for 5 minute sessions and then build up from this.
