Though a simple habit, journaling is a powerful tool that can help one destress, be more mindful, thoughtful and grateful for what they have in life. Writing daily and jotting down one’s thoughts has several benefits, like– it helps clear one’s mental clutter, organise their thoughts, and set clear priorities which boosts productivity and stay focussed on goals. Journaling also gives one space for self-reflection, helping one understand their patterns, and work on their strengths and weaknesses. Gratitude journaling, in particular, shifts focus toward positivity. This increases happiness and emotional resilience in the long run.
