Journaling tips

  • Commit to a specific amount of time and set a timer. 10 minutes, 15 minutes. Start for a short amount of time and work your way up.

  • Commit to doing it at the same time every day

  • Don't overthink it, just write. A mistake I see often made is trying to control what is being written. Just let the words flow without trying to make sense.

  • These are all topics you can write about and discuss in therapy, with your partner, with a friend...etc.
