Since I was a little girl I've always  loved writing journaling it really was   this pure innocent relationship  with me and my notebooks    these are three different ways I journal  for things going on in my life today the   first Journal is everything and anything  a mindfulness practice that Witnesses what   I'm experiencing and validates them by  putting them on paper without judgment my first Journal was a gift from my mom  in 2006. I had just turned 10 years old   this is my first Journal I've ever had  that she was really teaching me how to   feel acknowledge and process my own emotions the second Journey has more intention and I  want to say structure you know those five-year   journals that that's the inspiration here so do  doing any of these will benefit you just as it's   benefiting me in going through grief you know new  relationships old relationships making new friends   now that I see it it's a little small but I know  it's actually perfect for me the creative process   with this dedicated Journal essentially wrote  out an intro for my mom and I I just had this   idea I have a little Journal that I bought  at Target I forget the brand but it's just   my favorite brand of journals I always get the  big ones I'm such a writer in the sense that I   could free write my thoughts and feelings of what  I'm doing but I always read them so big and that's mom the intention with this is to just jot  down things of my day you know what I mean   I went to the farmer's market and got so many  yummy papayas and thought of you that's it for   that day like just really mundane things  and then who knows like where this will go okay I have to be honest with you the whole video  you just watched was shot months ago I really   thought I was gonna deliver a concise here is how  I Journal here's my three things three ways like   take my advice and maybe it'll work for you and  that's just not how it's gone like I've completely   ditched all of what I even am like recommending.

And I found this new love for uh what is this   even called like a scrapbooking Journal I've been  filling it with stickers seats and drawing using   colored pencils it's just like snowballed into  this into this new thing that I've never done   before Pinterest has been really fun for me I'll  go on Pinterest and save a bunch of stuff I kind   of stepped away from social media and like deleted  Instagram and frankly kind of stopped uploading uh   and I've been like this has been my passion  project fashion project I feel like it makes   it more fun if you have things that you like for  instance a fun pencil case if you're interested   in anything that I've used that I've been loving  like and I'm gonna have a bunch of stuff in my   Amazon storefront okay I think that's it I really  hope this inspired you I mean I think everybody's   journaling and journey is visual but this is this  is what I'm doing right now you didn't fill up the   journal like we really only got this much and  like really it was such a short amount of time   for eight years but these are such a short amount  of the journal the rest is just blank but which   maybe one day I can share this with my daughter  and we can like fill up the rest that whoa crazy I wanna I hope I have a daughter someday.
