• There are obvious therapeutic aspects of keeping a journal. Labeling emotions and acknowledging traumatic events (natural outcomes of journaling) have a known positive effect on people, which is why they’re incorporated into traditional talk therapy. With regards to implementing healthier living, this process can help you identify negative behaviors and build a plan to combat them in the future, making journaling a useful tool in the process of developing healthier habits.

• The practice of writing down your thoughts, emotions, as well as your day-to-day activities also gives you a heightened awareness, helping you develop a coherent narrative about yourself and the world around you. The concept of “getting your thoughts in order” may be more than just a saying: this process can help you see your life and other matters with a clearer perspective.
