How to get the most out of daily journal prompts for mental health

Before you leave I wanted to share with you a couple of tips to help you get the most out of daily journal prompts.

Although they might seem simple they can all make a difference and will help you maximize the power of this practice.

Here are the best practices for daily journal prompts:

Make it a part of your routine

You know the deal, if you don’t make part of the routine, it probably won’t happen.

Now choosing when to do it depends on your goals and what you want to achieve with this practice.

Are you focused on closing the day in a reflective and mindful mood? Or do you want to start your day with a boost of motivation and confidence?

Answering these questions will also help you determine what journal prompts to include in your practice.

Be consistent

Remember that you don’t need to answer all of these questions every day. But to actually see results and keep track of your improvement you need to make the commitment to be consistent.

To start pick 3 or 4 mental health questions that you will answer every day.

You can change up the rest depending on your mood of focus for the day. But choose 3 or 4 non-negotiables to stay consistent and compare your answers throughout the weeks.

Use pen and paper

Whenever you can try to do this practice with pen and paper. Research shows that when you write down by hand your brain is more deeply engaged with the information you are writing.

And remember it’s okay if you miss a day or two. You don’t have to be perfect!

You can answer them in your mind or skip some questions. The important thing to remember is that you keep finding ways to take care of your physical and mental health.
