How Meditative Journaling Helps Us Get Through The Day

September 21, 2020 in Mind & Soul
everything is possible 2021 planner

These times are extra challenging to deal with, especially when it comes to finding a balance between our work and personal lives. Imagine how a regular day unfolds for a multi-hyphenate millennial woman striving to hustle while caring for her family and herself. It may seem like a tough job, really, but some turned to meditative journaling, also known as mindful writing, as a healing method to get through the day. But how?

Meditative Journaling

Meditative journaling makes us start and learn something new. The habit of regular writing itself is already a form of a new process – something that is not usually part of our daily lives. But it gives one the freedom to express emotions and create something as they feel it. No pressure. It’s just that joyful connection between the self and those blank pages – the kind of beginning that is comforting than intimidating.

Often, we feel anxious, unheard, and unseen. It is a struggle to share sentiments with other people because of the fear that people may not understand it, or simply because we don’t know how to articulate what we are going through. For the times that we couldn’t catch up with our friends, journals serve as a perfect outlet. The beauty of writing an entry is that there are no rules or boundaries. We can acknowledge our feelings, rant, or even sketch what we feel. It’s all about taking a pause, seeking comfort, and finding our light at the end of the day.

Meditative Journaling makes us remember more things. Juggling multiple responsibilities at the same time can make us forget a lot. Meditative journaling can help us find our center and remember all the essential things, the little wins, and even our failures. It’s like the flow and reminder we need every day. By turning various moments into written tangible experiences, we can keep track of time, pay more attention to details, and regain this sense of control.

It makes us respond to our needs quickly. Narrating feelings and daily experiences are not only a form of expression, but more importantly, it gives you more signs and ideas on how to care for yourself. If you have noticed how the past few weeks have been consecutively rough, maybe it’s time to realign and change your routine or perspective. If you’ve noticed changes when it comes to your body, maybe it’s time to ask if you’re still okay, happy, or healthy, and make adjustments that are comfortable for you. Listening to yourself is an essential element of meditative journaling.

Mindful writing is like a me-time that is easy to squeeze in every working woman’s hectic schedule. The key to rewarding mediative journaling is to set a particular time for it and treat it not as an additional assignment, but a form of self-care. Write based on your observations, feelings, reflections, and needs. It’s like talking to yourself – and choosing to be kind to yourself.

    I love the “Everything Is Possible” journal in 2021. And I really hope so. I am not a diary type person but I can definitely see the benefits of writing down thoughts and I do believe it is likened to meditating. Have a great week ahead Nicole : ) xo

    I tried journaling earlier this year kaso hindi ko mamaintain huhu. I have too many things to do kaya hindi na ako makapag make time pa for journalling. But maybe because of this, mas kailangan ko pa talaga siya haha. Parang ang gulo ng mind ko with all the things going on..

    This is a nice planner! However, I pre-ordered from a different shop. Buy nalang din ako ng notebook from there some other time 🙂
