Frequently Asked Questions

Studies show that when people write in a journal on a regular basis, their mental, emotional, and even physical health can improve. Journaling can act as a form of self-therapy, reflection, and relaxing while at the same time strengthening your ability to think creatively.

Like any good habit, journaling is most effective when done as regularly as possible. Ideally, 10-20 minutes a day is a great goal, but don’t be discouraged if you aren’t there yet. Even if you only manage to write once or twice a week for a handful of minutes, you’ll notice a difference in your well-being.

Yes! Journaling is a great compliment to traditional therapy. Journaling is special in that your thoughts and emotions get to stay entirely between you and the page. Meaning you'll never feel like you could be judged for something you say aloud. It's crucial for us as humans to have a space to release our thoughts and feelings fully, and journaling is an extremely accessible, FREE, and completely confidential way to do just that.

Journaling without guidance can start to feel boring and unproductive, which isn’t sustainable.
