@jmgreenleaf Yes, the free writing does feel different. That's the mind-dump you refer to that's so helpful in Centering. #JournalChat

It's so beneficial to be able to record our successes, whether writing or anything else, in our journals to summarize the day. #JournalChat

@JournalChat I like the coil bound journals (9x13?) found at Barnes & Noble - the covers are sturdy & there are a lot of pages. #journalchat

@jmgreenleaf Oh, I completely understand that; especially when you're in the flow of it. #Journaling#JournalChat

@JournalChat Yes, I agree with that - it's allowed me to explore new ideas, too, that are too fragmented to draft out yet. #journalchat

@JournalChat Some days, though, my #writingwork is all-consuming and I only have time to journal at the end of the day. #journalchat

Perhaps your regular #Journaling has contributed to the success of your writing time. Would you agree? #JournalChat

@JournalChat Yes, it's a daily (hourly?) ritual I can't seem to let go of. I've been doing this for as long as I can remember & #journalchat

Many find it difficult to journal at ALL in their day; think about #Journaling every time your mind wanders from your work. #JournalChat
