    Journaling can also be a place to list our aspirations and dreams, and some of these might be health-related. Once we see it on paper, it can motivate us to take some steps toward better health.

      Sue Ekins I agree Jen. I DO get tired of rehashing the same issue over and over sometimes. That feeling does make me sit and write about what's really going on. Can I resolve this issue?

      Dawn Herring I think what we're dealing with is finding the core issue of the trouble we're facing..what is triggering it?

      Sue Ekins And sometimes it's really about something that happened a long time ago.

      Sue Ekins Just noticed Nathan Ohren's words "cherishing and understanding ourselves". So many of us don't do this, but journaling can help us get better at it.

      Dawn Herring Cherish is not a word you hear a lot. May be worth doing a mind map on! When I think of cherish, it's really treating someone you love with great care...which we should be doing with ourselves! That's what refreshment is for.

    I've never tried Dr. Pennebaker's Basic Writing Assignment, which is included in the blog post. I have, however, often journaled about "What is my strongest feeling today?" which might be similar. His exercise goes into more depth though.

      Dawn Herring Sure. You can just write a list of what makes you happy or things you want to do that you haven't done in a while. Journaling can be approached in many different ways. But you may notice that your emotion comes through what you write even if you're not looking for it.

      Carrie Aulenbacher I just can't imagine journaling without venting about all my daily stresses!

      Dawn Herring I journal 2 or 3 times per day...and I journal about many things, and venting is part of the process when necessary!
