Why Journal?

Keeping a diary has a range of benefits. A detailed journal becomes a record of daily life – the small, special moments that we all want to treasure but too often forget. When you regularly journal, gratitude, serenity and centredness become easier to find. A gratitude journal can help you focus on the good things in your life and keep you in a positive frame of mind.

Coming up with journal ideas and putting thoughts into words is a way to build neural pathways. These pathways strengthen memory, creativity, vocabulary, logic and communication skills and emotional intelligence.

Countless studies have shown the benefits of keeping a journal for mental health. Journal reflection has been proven to help writers cope with stress, anger, anxiety and depression. Expressing oneself through journaling provides an emotional release that has been shown to improve mood and increase a sense of well-being.

Journaling can provide a clearer picture of the issues in your life. By writing out experiences and struggles, journal writers can more clearly identify their stressors, manage them and put them into perspective. This makes journal writers better able to process negative emotions. This clarity boosts self-awareness, resilience and self-confidence.

Tips for Your Journal Journey

To get the benefits of journaling, it’s best to do it every day. Try to create a little time in your daily schedule to make a diary entry. Even if it’s only two minutes in between other tasks.

Come up with a list of journal topics, journal questions and journal entry ideas that you can pull from if there are days when you don’t know what to write about.

Before you start journaling, write down your journal goals to give your journaling practice some direction. Review these goals periodically to see if you’re on track or if your goals need to change.

Keep your journal notebook and a pen handy at all times. That way you’ll be prepared to write out your thoughts whenever you have a spare moment or whenever there’s something you need to get off your chest.

Make your journal writing time a time to unwind. Sit in your favourite chair, put on your favourite music and make a nice cup of tea so you can sort out your thoughts in a peaceful, relaxing environment.

Review your journal regularly so you can spot trends in your moods, thought patterns, emotions and coping strategies. Think of your journal pages as a valuable source of feedback about your mental and emotional life.

Journal books make excellent gifts for children and adults. Our Indian Elephant Diary is a beautiful, high quality diary notebook you can give for any occasion, to any elephant lovers in your life.
