Creative Journaling
It's an Inward Journey
Keeping a journal doesn't necessarily mean writing about your day - that's more like a diary. Here you will be encouraged to write about
your ideas and feelings, to sketch and doodle, dream about the future or express your reflections about a topic.
​
Journaling helps us be mindful of our thoughts and intentions. It is where we can think, process, remember and dream.
