Creative journaling is an inspiring and liberating way to get in touch with your thoughts, feelings and emotions. It’s a great way to boost your sense of wellbeing and get to know yourself better.
Express Yourself Through Journaling
Author and illustrator Kia Marie Hunt is a lifelong creative journaler whose work has been featured in her own Etsy stationery store and kids’ activity journals.
She believes that engaging in creative journaling can be a cathartic activity that helps you express yourself without any expectations or limitations.
Get Connected With Creative Journaling
Everyone can practice creative journaling, and it doesn’t have to take up much of your time either.
Even as little as 20 minutes spent writing, drawing, creating collages or printing out photos can help you connect with your emotions and process your thoughts.
It can also be a great way to record memories and keep track of what matters most to you.
Find Inspiration in Others’ Journals
To start your own creative journaling practice, Hunt suggests looking for inspiration from others, such as her own Instagram accounts @kia.creates and @inspiringjournals.
You can also join her Journal Club to find helpful tips on how to get started.
