Challenge #4: Pick Your Journal

This week your challenge is to Pick A Journal Type, and write in it for at least a week.

I know, journaling. How many times has someone told you to keep one? At least a thousand, right?

Well I think one of the problems is that you haven't found the right journal for you. There are so many types and one of them has to float your boat!

I have a friend who is doing a blog specifically on journaling and it is adorable. She has tips on how to better your writing, different kinds of journals, and prompts for daily writing. I would highly recommend going over and taking a look. You will definitely be inspired to write.

There are also many benefits to writing in a journal. "regular writing can give you a safe, cathartic release valve for the stresses of your daily life. We've discussed some of those mental and emotional benefits of writing before, from the angle of creative writing—but you don't have to write fiction to get them. For example, we've mentioned that keeping an awesomeness journal can do wonders for your self-esteem. Not only does regular writing make you feel good, it helps you re-live the events you experienced in a safe environment where you can process them without fear or stress." -Henry, Alan. "Why You Should Keep a Journal (and How to Start Yours)."Lifehacker. N.p., 19 Mar. 2014. Web. 10 Feb. 2016.

Find the inspiration you need and feel the benefits, they are life changing!

Affirmation: What I have to say matters.
