3 benefits of journalling

How journaling can help you achieve your dreams or simply feeling more calm, balanced and joyful

I’ve started journalling a long time ago. I first started with journaling about my day, my travels and later I started doing the “inner work” through journalling. Back then, little did I know what power it had and what a difference it made in my life.

Here are 3 benefits I’ve discovered about journaling. Journalling has so many benefits but here are the most beneficial ones that can support you with following your dreams and help you manifest the life you truly desire, or simply feeling more balanced and joyful.

1)Become aware of your thoughts and emotions
Journalling can help you become aware of what’s going on in your mind. Often, we have so many thoughts on our minds and a lot of them are not really serving. It can help you become aware of your thoughts and release them. Let’s be honest. In order to achieve our dreams and manifest our heart’s desires it’s important to align our internal world. Otherwise we may risk remaining in our old reality. At the beginning, I underestimated the power of my thoughts, only when I later became aware through my practice of journaling how many self-destructive thoughts I had, I was no longer surprised why I couldn't manifest at the beginning.

2)Connect with yourself
A journaling practice can help you make time for yourself and you get to know yourself and your internal world better. Often, we are so busy with work and other stuff that we forget to make time for ourselves and connect with ourselves. Journalling is one way to simply relax, get your pen and paper out and allow yourself to connect with your own inner world and heart’s desires.

3)Access your subconscious mind
There are a lot of things in our subconscious mind. The subconscious mind is so vast. It appears as vast as the ocean. Some people that start with manifestation or the inner work want to release everything all at once. And of course, it’s understandable. We’re tired of our old limitations. But the truth is this: Reprogramming the mind in one day is not impossible but for most of us, a regular practice can help achieve those dreams. Often achieving our dreams consists of multiple steps and actions, so with each step you may face new limitations. That’s how a regular journaling practice can help you move and navigate through those challenges.

Are you a journalling lover too or became curious? All it takes is to get a pen and paper and let yourself be guided by your intuition. If you feel you need some journalling inspiration, I will share a lot of impulses in the next upcoming weeks.

Stay tuned.
