I start every day the same. Wake up, turn the kettle on, take the dogs out then journal.
I started journaling during the pandemic and have kept the habit going. On vacation, I journal, on work days, I journal and on my days off I journal more.
In the last 6 years I have probably missed a handful of days and I can tell you, I feel off on those days.
I journal gratitude, things I would love, stream of consciousness you name it, I journal it and it makes me feel grounded and calm.
So if you asked me what keeps me sane, I would say journalling.
