I grab my journal whenever I’m feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or unsure. Since I started journaling, I’ve become more connected to my intuition and inner guidance as well as calmer and more centred. Journaling played a huge role in me healing my relationship with food and cultivating self love - it's taught me to be gentle with myself, something I used to be very, (very!), bad at.

Maybe because it is so powerful, journaling is something a lot of us have some resistance to. Let me guess – writing just isn’t your ‘thing’? (But maybe it could be!) Or maybe you ‘don’t have time’? (Sometimes we have to make time). Or maybe you’re not sure where to start? That’s where journal prompts come in – acting kind of like a self interview, they will guide you to write on topics that you might find it a little tricky to just sit down and riff on.

So to help you get started, here are 18 of my favourite, powerful journal prompts and what they are great for (+ scroll down for a my printable Find Your Purpose journal prompts!)
