I feel like by 2023, many of us have heard that journaling can support our mental health. I don't know if you're like me, but just knowing this information doesn't spur me on to do anything. Starting a new habit is hard, especially if we don't understand the benefits.
Journaling is a wonderful way for us to reflect upon our day - we can think over what went well, what didn't, and how we could change things in the future. Journaling can also help us see progress towards our goals or if we need to alter our behaviours. Especially for children (but us adults, too!), journaling can improve communication skills. Journaling can prompt students to reflect on their emotions and give them new ways to say how they feel.
But like anything, journaling isn't one size fits all. There are many different types of journaling. From making quick lists, to creating beautiful illustrations, there's something for everyone.
Here are some guides on journaling:
