Journal Thursday

What a day!

For today's (this week's) journal...

  1. Close your eyes and take a deep breath...in through the nose and then out through the mouth....then repeat the deep breathing exercise once more.
  2. Now, open your eyes and write the first 3 words that come to your mind in a vertical (up-and-down) row.
  3. For each word, write about what each of them means to you at this moment.
  4. Review what you wrote...if anything seems negative or out of sorts with you, give yourself a few moments to reflect on how you may improve from the thoughts and feelings that flowed out in your words.
If things seem overwhelming, then find a trusted friend to talk to or consider setting up a counseling session or 2 with a counselor to sort things out in a private, confidential setting. Go to our pathways website for more information.
