Discover your authentic self in a practice that blends the depths of neuroscience findings with the power of narrative.

When we make time for deep listening to our stories that want to be told, we open the door to restoring a sense of inner wholeness. As we continue to listen, we begin to hear the sound of our most authentic voice and connect with a sense of creative freedom.

Writing is a process, a journey into memory and the soul.

Isabel Allende

As in meditation practice, mindful journaling offers practice in paying attention to our inner world with kindness, which can help us to see yourself clearly with compassion. When we see ourselves clearly, we have the power to change the habitual patterns that create suffering and create new habits that support inner peace and happiness.

Discover your authentic voice and your authentic self in a practice that blends the depths of neuroscience findings with the power of narrative.

Journaling encourages us to pay attention to the patterns of our minds that create suffering and develop new patterns that support wellness and resilience.

Mindfulness journaling can facilitate a sense of calm aliveness. It can facilitate positive emotional states, including a sense of safety and security, peace, hope, joy, serenity, loving-kindness, compassion, self-compassion, gratitude, happiness, and awe. When practice journaling as a mindfulness practice, it can help us to pay attention to what matters most and understand ourselves more deeply.
