www.naturalawakenings.com/2022/02/28/389324/journaling-to-access-inner-wisdom "On a summer afternoon in 2015, I sat in my favorite coffee shop waiting on life-changing news. With each minute, my anxiety mounted, so I turned to the only thing that calms me in a stressful situation—my journal. As my pen scrawled across the page, I instinctively wrote a letter from my future self to my present self. I just needed someone to reassure me. And that “someone,” apparently, was me. I’ve been writing these inner-wisdom letters ever since, and it has been one of the most helpful practices in managing my anxiety. Women that have attended my retreats say it is the most impactful thing we do. When you’re feeling overwhelmed, grab a pen and follow these simple steps...." My notes: Who here has journaled? I've kept a diary since 1990 & have found it extremely beneficial.

I love the idea but currently my life is too boring. It's like groundhog day! 😄

I kept a Diary during my teen years, and it helped me get through a lot of little problems.
