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, and there are also questions that are unrelated. 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

Guided journal prompts are beneficial to those who want to write in a journal but aren't sure what to write about. And, they're also a great way for daily journal writers to switch it up and add something new to their journal. Maybe you're getting bored of always writing the same things in your journal and want to get creative! Here are a few benefits of journal prompts:

  • Helps guide what to write about
  • Self reflection
  • Takes the guess work out of writing
  • Builds confidence
  • New and creative entries in your journal
  • Faster! If you're in a time crunch but want to write, you can simple answer one question a day

BENEFITS OF JOURNALING

  • Self-discovery and reflection
  • Encourages creativity, positivity and mindfulness
  • Provides clarity of thoughts and feelings
  • Reduces stress and anxiety

HOW TO USE JOURNAL PROMPTS

How you decide to use journal prompts is ultimately up to you! Whether you'd like to sit and answer 20 questions all at once, or prefer to answer one question a day, it's at your discretion. For myself I enjoy answering one question a day because it allows more time for reflection in-between. To me, journaling is all about reflecting.
