Writing in your journal as a way to release and express your thoughts, feelings and emotions can be a life-changing habit.
Daily writing can be a challenge if you’re new to it. Much like meditating, it requires patience and commitment. But if you stick to it, it can improve your life in significant ways.
While some can write for hours at a time, researchers say that journaling for at least 15 minutes a day three to five times a week can significantly improve your physical and mental health.
If you’re new to journaling, the easiest way to begin is to find a time and place where you won’t be disturbed and just start writing.
