Connect to your being before you start doing each week with these six powerful journal prompts:

Journaling is a powerful strategy to help support your wellbeing.

Scientific evidence supports that the act of writing accesses your left brain, which is analytical and rational. While your left brain is occupied, your right brain is free to create, intuit and feel.

This means that journaling can remove mental blocks and allow you to use your brainpower to better understand yourself, others and the world around you.

Journaling also supports to:

Clarify your thoughts and feelings: Do you ever seem all jumbled up inside, unsure of what you want or feel? Taking a few minutes to jot down your thoughts and emotions (no editing!) will quickly get you in touch with your internal world.
Know your best self better: By developing a journaling ritual, you will gain great clarity on what does fill up your cup, and what doesn’t (essential information for your wellbeing!).
Reduce stress: Writing about difficult emotions helps to release the intensity behind them, supporting you to feel calmer and better able to stay in the present.
Solve problems more effectively: Journaling unlocks your right brain – such as your creativity and intuition – which is essential for coming up with innovation solutions to challenges and problem solving.
Resolve misunderstandings with others: Writing about misunderstandings can help you to understand another’s point of view, which can often lead to an effective resolution.

Complete the above journal prompts each week to proactively support your wellbeing and gain a great dose of clarity, simplicity and direction for your week ahead.
