How To Start A Wellbeing Journal
Wellbeing journal’s are brilliant! They are a completely unique and personalised workbook that you create to suit your own interests and needs. Although you may choose to record some of your adversities like health issues, a wellbeing journal is not a negativity tracker! It is not about sitting around getting bogged down in recording all the bad things that are happening to you, like pain and unwanted symptoms, similar to what you might log in a healthcare journal. A wellbeing journal is also not restricted to other common topics like meal planning and fitness routines. The idea of a wellbeing journal is to help and inspire you to feel well.
What your wellbeing journal might include:
Your journal should be a catalogue of everything that makes you feel well that you can return to time and time again. Here are some topics for inspiration:
- Journalling daily moments that make you feel good.
- Daily / Weekly or Monthly mantras and quotes.
- Memories from your past that have made you feel alive.
- Things that have been said to you by others that have helped you see your worth.
- Awards you have won.
- Positive reviews you have recieved.
- Things that make you feel encouraged, motivated, happy or relaxed such as books or movies that you can go back and watch.
- Support networks info about people who love you and make you feel supported
- Vision boards for your dream life and ambitions
- Images of people who inspire you
- Things that make you feel safe
