Journaling: A Stress Management Technique |
|
|
|
It provides you physical and mental relief
and is very beneficial. The idea behind this technique is to jot down
everything that comes to your mind. This is how you can go about it:
A) Buy
a notebook or journal. It could be a multi-colored pages one or a normal
one.
B) What is important is that you chalk out at least 20 minutes in
a day to write your journal.
C) Now the big question is what are you
supposed to write? You don’t need to think. Just write anything and
everything that comes to your mind. It could be your dreams, your
expectations, your aim, just about anything. Just write it down.
D) Jot down negative feelings, if any. There is nothing to hide and
fear about.
E) Don't worry about your grammatical mistakes and do not
try to censor what you write. Practice this daily and see how relieved
you'll feel.
F) Last but not the least, keep your journal private.
It
is simple to practice and does not require any professional help. As you
are free to write whatever you want to write, this exercise would give
vent to your personal feelings, thereby leaving you de-stressed.
