Journaling was my best friend from the time I was 11 years old up to my early 20s. Then, I quit for a couple of decades, only to resume it a couple of months ago. And it has been life-changing ever since. I realized that my journals are helping me with my anxiety and I found out how good of a healing tool it is. Regardless of your career path or your emotional health, writing down your feelings, thoughts, and emotions is an efficient way to carve a light path to and from the souls. It’s a process, it’s not magic, but it’s certainly effective. But journals go way beyond emotional health. They are great tools to organize travel plans, keep bullet goals, pregnancy milestones, and basically everything you want to keep a writing record.
Handwriting is becoming a forgotten habit since we live in a digital World, but for the nostalgic youngster or for Millenials and older, it is how we did things most of our lives. I love writing and I can’t think the same when I’m typing. For work, typing is fine, but for the heart and soul business, I need paper and a pencil. And because I’ve been obsessed with journaling and writing, I decided to share the most aesthetic journal notebooks and junk kits I found recently. I hope you like them!
