On today’s episode we’re discussing journaling: what it is & what can you gain through regularly writing in a journal. Research backs up the benefits of journaling when it comes to reducing anxiety, easing depression, working through trauma and setting goals. If there are stressful situations occurring in your life, journaling trains you to stop and make sense of it all.

Journaling to some might sound trite but expressing your thoughts and feelings through writing can help you gain insight into certain behaviors. Taking the time to reflect on what has happened and why can help you to start identifying patterns and how you contribute to them.

Instead of having all those thoughts tumbling around in your head, to put pen to paper can sort them out. Maybe you thought it was too time-consuming or it felt tedious, or you didn’t think it would help. It can be used to record memories, track habits, and explore feelings and ideas.

And, journaling increases the likelihood that you will achieve your goals.
