5 Benefits of Journeling

Nowadays with technological advancements, journaling may seem like an obsolete practice. But, journaling can actually have many benefits to your overall wellbeing and is also a great way to document your milestones and memories.

I personally discovered the benefits of journaling when I was transitioning to boarding school and college. I knew that I wanted a way to document my experiences and have something to look back on. There are many benefits to journaling, but keep reading to see my top 5.

1. You develop mindfulness of your past and current emotions and future anxieties.

The months leading up to leaving home for high school, I realized I had a lot of anxieties and fears that I constantly thought about. It could have been the fact that my brother had a lot of spare journals lying in his room or my desire to rant but not feel like I’m burdening another person, but I started to list all my fears that were circling in my mind. After that, I felt lighter and became less obsessive over my anxieties.

When I started school, I looked back at all the fears that I listed in my journal and I started to “reply” to my list. I wrote about how I did make friends, how much I liked my teachers and that although I still have fears, everyone around me is going through the same thing and to take it day by day. Following that day, whenever I was nervous or tense about something, I always wrote it down and then I went back and wrote about how that presentation went, the highlights of the softball game or about the confrontation with my roommate. It made me more aware and okay with how I was feeling and I ended up putting a positive spin on things, which promoted a healthier mentality.

#personal #journeling #i was a mistake

i’m not sure if i can do this

studying is so difficult for me. i did like 3 things in the last hour and now i’m making a tumblr post about it. the longer i keep with school the less it feels like im going to get anywhere with it.

i wrote a song in that last hour for fuck’s sake.

I’m going to try to get my stuff at the apartment. Yesterday i left it on bad terms to where i have to be dodgy about it.

On top of that i have to get some very important mail today if my second attempt fails then i’ll have to call someone higher up.

Wish me luck guys.

Bullet journal? I've heard of these and they look like something I've been needing without knowing. Anyone use one that can tell me more about what they are, how they use it, and why they like it? I'd appreciate it!
