More Benefits of Journaling

July 17, 2023

Journaling has many benefits. Here are a few more.

  1. Journaling improves communication skills. Writing has a critical connection to speaking.

  2. Journal writing lowers anxiety and stress. It also induces better sleep. So it can be said that one of the benefits is healing emotionally, physically, and psychologically.

  3. Sparking creativity is another benefit of journal writing. Ideas may begin to flow as you write. Morning Pages, as explained by Julia Cameron in her book The Artist’s Way, allow you to rid negativity from your mind, leaving room for creative ideas. Morning Pages is a process in which you write a stream of consciousness, whatever is in your mind.

  4. Finally, journal writing increases self-confidence. When we write about a positive experience, we allow the brain to relive that experience. So, we affirm our. ability to be able to handle difficult situations when they arise.
