.

We’ve put together 15 Journal Prompts for Healing to encourage you to pause, look within, and create emotional healing through awareness. Whether you’re searching for inner healing from a past relationship, a limiting belief or a challenging situation, journaling can help. Writing is a wonderful tool to help release your thoughts, feelings and energy while focusing on the present moment. By asking yourself questions you can also work backwards to find patterns and where a thought or feeling began.

I hope these journal prompts help guide you on your inner healing journey and encourage more peace, joy and harmony in your life.

Whether you use one journal prompt a day, or answer all of the journal prompts in one sitting, it's completely up to you. I'm simply grateful you'll be practicing journaling to help bring mindfulness, peace and emotional healing into your day. Also, be sure to check out our guided wellness and self care journals. Happy Journaling!

WHAT ARE JOURNAL PROMPTS?

Journal prompts are guided questions to encourage exploring new topics and reflection of oneself. Guided questions sometimes vary by specific topics such as healing, self-love or self-discovery, gratitude, stress and much more. So, whether you're pursuing personal growth or development in a specific area, or would simply enjoy writing suggestions, then journal prompts are for you!

BENEFITS OF JOURNAL PROMPTS FOR INNER HEALING

Guided journal prompts are beneficial to those who want to write in a journal for healing but aren't sure what to write about. And, they're also a great way for those who keep a daily journal to switch things up and add something new to their time of reflection. Here are a few benefits of using journal prompts for inner or emotional healing:

Helps you become aware of thoughts and feelings

Allows you to recognize and release negative thoughts and feelings

Increases positivity and mood

Encourages inner peace and a feeling of well-being

BENEFITS OF JOURNALING

  • Provides self-discovery, self-awareness and reflection
  • Encourages creativity, positivity and mindfulness
  • Provides clarity of thoughts and feelings
  • Builds resilience and confidence
  • Reduces stress and anxiety by keeping you in the present moment and releasing emotions or thoughts
  • Can improve your sleep and overall mental wellness

HOW TO USE JOURNAL PROMPTS FOR HEALING

Whether you are entering a new chapter, or trying to overcome a difficult situation pull these journal prompts out for reflection. Answer a question and bring yourself into the present moment by acknowledging your current thoughts or emotions. Ensure you talk yourself through the feelings to further understand where they are coming from and what you need to heal from. When you know where they are coming from you have a better understanding of why and how to address them.
