I love starting a fresh new journal, it’s like a fresh start of sorts. I have saved my journals for years and it’s so fun to go back and read them and celebrate how far I’ve come or find gold nuggets that I’ve forgotten about! I started a new journal this month on Friday, October 6th in Portland, Oregon. I always write the day, date, and location when I write.
I write in the morning as part of my morning rituals. Journaling for me is a way to get through surface-level thoughts, and then tap into my deepest inner thoughts. These thoughts are often inaccessible to me once I start my day, but they are easily accessible in the morning when I feel most connected. This is also the time that I free write about my dreams and visions for my life and my service to others. I give thanks for these things and declare them done; I am expectant of good things in my life every day.
Here’s something I wrote on Oct 6, 2023:
“There is a level of myself, of each of us that we have yet to discover. The “me” that we have been is often blocking us from the next level of intimacy and connection that is required for our next level growth. The dream has not changed; it’s simply requiring a new depth. Dig deeper.”
Do you want to learn more about writing in the AM and how you can begin a practice like this?
I personally invite you to join Flow Academy Holistic Life Coach, Chrystal Hart, as she leads us through a free 30-day Awakened Words Morning Page challenge. I am so excited to join this with Chrystal and each of you as she walks us through how to get started, exactly what to do, and then helps us all share in the beauty and breakthroughs of an AM writing practice.
See you in November for the writing challenge, join HERE!
