What is journaling?

This lecture briefly introduces you to journaling

A journal is a written record of your thoughts, feelings, experiences, and observations. You can write in your journal daily, or only when you feel the urge. Journaling is then the act of keeping, writing, reflecting and making personal change through the art of keeping a journal.

Ok. That feels very formal. That's ok as we go through the course it will become more apparent what journaling is to YOU. Because what it means to you is what will give you the healing, change and transformation.

Later we will look at why, the benefits and how to journal.

Let me ask you:-

• Do you feel stuck and unable to move on?
• Do you feel that you have something to heal, but 'it' never seems to go away?
• Have you tried every personal development course available, but still feel no further forward?
• When you do write, do you fill up with emotion and can’t move on?
• Do you stare at a blank page and wonder what to write about?
• Have you ever wanted to write your life story or memoir, but stopped, staring blankly at the page in front of you. Full of doubts you put your pen away.

What if...

• What if you could take the bold step of exploring you and your life and could discover how to make changes through writing and reflection? Would you be tempted?
• What if you could get your story out, heal your wounds, be in control and confident. Would you want to take that step?

Who knows where you will find yourself at the end of the course?
