\n“Autotherapy journal. Talk to the paper.” <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Save cash. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Or, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n“mood journal. How do I feel? What’s the current state of my mind?”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Tired. Everyday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n“Change forms of journalling. There are many forms of journaling. Classic diary entries, a bullet journal, gratitude journal.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
\n“Do a mix. Spend five minutes a day making notes. Write three things you\u2019re grateful for, or a list of ten ideas on any topic.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
\n“Write every day. Journaling works best if you do it every day.” <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Supposed to help with resilience or something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n“Write by hand.”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Found an old notebook with cats on the cover. Forgot how to write. Hand used to tapping. Paper looks like a relic? The hand is saying “no, we don’t do this anymore.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are all sorts of journalling methods: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hemingway-style is DIY narrative therapy. But use concrete nouns and active verbs. Write about acitons. Hemingayan style, “I woke up. I had bread. The war broke out.” No adjectives. Rudimentary. Makes you feel like a tourist in your life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Or, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n“Start self-care journal. Practice self-care daily. Tick it off. How can you show more kindness to yourself? Record your daily self-care activities.” <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Had a vegetable. Singular. Just, survived. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Or, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n“the bullet-point journal. Use bullet points, but not for grocery lists. Say, everyday make a list of 10 ideas for something. Today: “10 ideas how can you show more kindness to yourself?”\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Patted myself on the back. Did it again. Felt good. Patted the legs too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another one: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n“Gratitude journal. Write three things you\u2019re grateful for each day. Write three sentences starting with: “Grateful for…”\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
This doeas take up to five minutes a day. The brainiacs replicated this a million times: the volunteers for the experiment wrote 3 sentences a day. Aftert two weeks they reported feeling superior wellbeing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n“Or, just ildly doodle and jot for self-awareness.” <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
