Journal Prompts to Relieve Stress + Anxiety
Journaling has a lot of benefits, but it can be hard to start, especially if you don't have a specific reason for why you are doing it. One of the best things about the activity is that it can relieve stress and anxiety. Sometimes just the simple act of Journaling is exactly what it sounds like, it's a place to write down all of your thoughts and feelings. It allows you to take note of everything that is stuck in your head. When you go through the process of listing, organizing, decluttering, questioning, feeling, and taking action, you can work to get all of your thoughts out of your brain. Journaling allows you to put all of the thoughts from your brain and put them down on paper to help you store, organize, and process the information at a later time. Writing down everything, including your feelings and emotions, can help you process them better. By taking notice, we can start to identify patterns, habits, activities, and thoughts that may be holding us back. In other words, Journals help us to facilitate personal growth.
