idk if anyone else has this experience but been journaling all my life. Could write a book fr
But sometimes I get caught up in more of what I think about feels like ~productive journaling~. Journaling about values, goals, stuff that’s happened and my feelings about situations and experiences I have had
This all feels …. Good, but too productive
I’ve been taking moments to write about what’s directly in front of me And instead painting a picture of whatever immediate scene im in. “I’m on a train , it’s dark, the only way I know there’s houses on the hills in the distance is by their glowing light through the windows”
It’s helped me tap into a different part of my brain & feels really good. There have been periods where I don’t focus on this type of stuff while writing.
Just a reminder to pause ❤️
