Have you ever wanted to start journaling but felt overwhelmed about doing it "properly"? In this weeky podcast, I reveal the three powerful journaling techniques that have transformed my life and the lives of my coaching clients. As someone who was initially sceptical, I've now filled countless journals and made this practice a non-negotiable foundation of my coaching programme.
I break down the science behind why physically writing activates different neural pathways than thinking alone, reducing anxiety, improving memory, and enhancing your problem-solving abilities. You'll learn stream of consciousness writing for untangling complex emotions, gratitude journaling for shifting perspective, and brain dumping for managing overwhelm.
Whether you're new to journaling or have tried and given up before, these practical techniques and sustainability tips will help you create a journaling practice that sticks without the pressure of perfection. Stop overthinking and start journaling today—your mental clarity depends on it.
