Try These 3 Journal Prompts For Your Self-Care Time

As a creative person, I tend to have a lot of thoughts that keep me from accomplishing the goals I truly need to get done for the day. In the last few years, I’ve found journaling to be an incredible form of self-care. Whether it’s a watercolor journal or a bullet journal, putting my thoughts to paper keeps me grounded. Now more than ever, it’s been a practice that allows me to keep showing up for myself and others during this difficult time. Below are three simple journaling prompts you can try! All you need is a pen and a piece of paper. If you want to get super creative, feel free to grab a ruler to make straight lines or pick out your favorite supplies (I have a few favorites in my Amazon Shop!) to add some color!

Journal Prompts To Try: Gratitude List

Now more than ever, I’ve been more intentional about finding little things to be grateful for. When we put things into perspective, there are actually a lot of things we have that we take for granted.

A bullet journal is a great way to creatively lay out the things you want to accomplish or remember for a length of time. You can include a calendar, a reading list, a goals list, a habit tracker, a budget plan, a bucket list for the month – the options are truly endless! I love making one as a way to keep up my creativity. I’m constantly dreaming up new ideas to include!
