There is so much unbelievable power in journaling. It is one of the most overlooked and underused practices to create the life we desire right now. The problem is, most of us are terribly out of practice with tuning into our intuition. Like someone who has been sedentary for years and then suddenly decides to become a runner, it's going to be difficult for the first couple of runs as your body strengthens the muscles required to be a runner. If you have continually been looking for answers outside of yourself for some time now and have completely disconnected from your own inner guidance system, it will take a little practice to strengthen your inner trust "muscle" as well. Journaling can be used as a way to tap into our individual truth, our soul guidance, and even our subconscious.
Journaling helps us identify our true desires, which the majority of the population doesn't actually know.
Once we identify what we really desire, we can decide to have it and become unstoppable.

Your Imagination Is Your Superpower

Our superpower as humans is found in our imagination, creativity, and ability to tell stories. I have personally studied this in my background in cultural anthropology and archaeology before becoming a master coach. There is so much interesting research around humans as storytellers and how we have used stories to shape our reality and experience throughout history. However, the issue is that in modern society, we're still telling stories, but we don't realize we're doing it. This lack of awareness results in us not realizing that the stories we're telling can empower us or disempower us. Therefore, people often tell disempowered stories as the narrative or script of their lives without even knowing it! This is where journaling can be incredibly powerful in breaking patterns of feeling not fulfilled in our lives. Journaling allows us to zoom out our perspective.
Instead of being in our own "movie" and feeling like a victim of the circumstances, we can instead shift into being both the director and star of our own life.
Suddenly, you feel like you have your power back in every situation because you can get crystal clear on what you actually desire, what you're available for, know who you really are, and be able to take aligned action anytime a situation or experience isn't matching up to your vision. This is why journaling is so essential during any time in life, but especially now with so many opportunities to evolve our consciousness.

Start by Practicing Being the Version of You Who Has Everything

There are specific prompts we can use to get clear on our true, most intimate desires, steps to take to move us towards them right now, and even identify anything that's out of alignment in our lives so we can choose again. Get clear on what you want from life deep down in your soul. Each of us has completely unique desires, and these are the divine roadmaps to our destiny. These can be desires about our lives, business, bodies, or most intimate relationships. Once we identify the desire, we can focus on what it would feel like if that area of our lives was already exactly how we want it to be (this is where the imagination piece comes in).
By exploring what emotions, feelings, and energies you would feel if you already had exactly what you desire, you become an energetic match for what you want.

Prompts That Lead to Journaling Success

Here are some of the key practices and prompts that I have found to be so powerful when journaling:
1. Get Out of Your Head and Into the Feelings of What You Really Desire
A lot of people talk about brain dumping or just writing whatever pops up. However, I find it to be so much more helpful if you write down everything you desire as if it is already done.

And then be open to what comes through. You might just be surprised by how brilliant your inner guidance system really is.
2. Write Out the Belief Systems You’d Love To Have as a Journal Prompt

I use my belief systems to empower me. If your current belief systems aren't particularly empowering, write prompts for yourself based on the belief systems you wish you did have to start practicing them. Once I become crystal clear on what I desire, even my desired belief systems, I can use it to shift how I feel, think, and act.
3. Write Your Reality
This is one of my absolute favorite practices, and it's so powerful for getting you into the energy, emotions, and feelings of having all that you desire now. How good would that feel?

It's less about the words and more about the emotions and feelings of it already being done. The more you practice how good it feels to have already all that you desire, the less available you'll be for anything less.
Finally, remember that journaling can take any form you feel inspired for it to take. It can be a page, several pages, speaking it out loud to yourself, with a like-minded friend, or even having a great conversation with your own coach. More than anything, it's about uncovering what you really desire at a subconscious level and then embodying the emotional frequency of your deepest desires. From this space, your thoughts, feelings, and actions will be naturally affected and impact your entire experience and reality. Don't worry about getting it right; just focus on allowing your journaling to be a relationship with yourself and tuning into your highest energetic state.
