Prompts for your journal

Journal Prompts

Sometimes it can be helpful to write down our thoughts and feelings; it's a way of expressing them when maybe words are just too hard. Writing in a journal is a very personal experience, you write in whatever style that you want, possibly include photos, drawings and sketches, include music lyrics or film quotes, whatever speaks to you. 

The prompts below are to help you make a start in your journal and can even be used as points for reflection, you don't have to write anything down. 

I hope that they prove helpful and I would love your feedback on these and any new suggestions that you have found beneficial.

What went well today?
What didn't go so well today?
What would I do differently next time?

A moment in nature that 'spoke' to you...

My happiest memory is...

I felt anxious when...
I stopped feeling anxious when...

An inspiring quote/lyric is...because...

What did I do for me today?
What did I do for myself this week?
What do I want to do for myself?

Today I am feeling...
The worst feeling I had today is...
The best feeling I had today is...

If I could change anything, I would change...because...


Remember, this is for you, so no pressure, just think, reflect and maybe write or draw and express your thoughts and feelings.
