We’re going to talk about the many ways in which journaling can be beneficial in this multipart series.
Firstly, it’s an amazing creative outlet.
You can do SO much with a journal and keep it all in one handy place, making it a great travel companion, something to do during breaks, for quiet evenings at home or during nice relaxing weekends out and about. It’s the perfect medium for writing, drawing, painting, scrap booking – anything really.
Sometimes, we have a creative itch that we struggle to scratch with other activities, such as baking, as they can involve a lot of precision and time investment… when all we really want to do is just get on with something straight away! It’s good to pick up a journal and various supplies that we have to hand and just make something that looks nice. Nothing in-depth that requires thinking. Sometimes it’s as simple as putting loads of stickers in a nice arrangement.

Don’t get caught up in making your journal look perfect, honestly just enjoy using it – you can always get more.
