This is episode seven of our the Journaling Foundations Series of The Journaling Guy Podcast (Season 4, Episode 7). It's the FINAL episode in this series and today, I talk about how a Journal starts to KEEP YOU.

One of the biggest gifts Journaling gives you is perspective. When you're living through something difficult, it can feel permanent. But when you can flick back through months or even years of your own thoughts, you start seeing something different. You see growth and resilience.

THIS WEEK’S MISSION IS:

Go back and read something you wrote a few weeks ago. As you read it, don't judge the person who wrote those words. Instead, meet them with compassion and then ask yourself:

What has changed?

What have I learned?

What did I survive that I thought I couldn't?

You might discover that you've come much further than you realise.

If you'd like more detail around this method, and to understand how and why it works, pop over to The Journaling Guy Substack. There's you'll find...

• Bonus audio that never made it into today's podcast 🎧
• The full mission, written down
• Bonus reflections too

This is all over on the Substack channel which you can find HERE.
