Creative Journal Ideas-Part 2
Here are a few more ideas for your journal writing:
One Liners: Sum up your day, or how you feel using only one sentence.
Brain Drain: This is also known as stream of consciousness writing. Set a timer for 30 minutes and write whatever comes into your head. Don’t censor yourself or worry about it making sense. Keep writing until the timer runs out. I really mean whatever pops into your head. It’s okay if you start out with “I don’t know what to write,” or “this is goofy”
The idea is to just get it all out. It is useful for clearing your head, or as a warm up before more purposeful writing.
Write Your Day Backwards: Recount your day starting with the last thing you did before you sat down to write, working backwards to the beginning of your day; and have dessert before dinner if you like!
