#133 - The Magic of Morning Pages Journaling

Hello and welcome to another episode!Years ago I read a wonderful book, The Artist's Way by Julia Cameron. A beautiful book which teaches techniques and exercises to assist people in gaining self-confidence to harness their creative talents.One of the techniques recommended was ‘stream of consciousness writing’. Just dumping onto paper what-ever is in your head at any given time.Over time I evolved the practice - called ‘Morning Pages’ – and most mornings for the last decade or so I sit in a quiet place with a blank journal and pen, a cup of tea, a favourite candle lit nearby, and I write…It's become a valuable ritual for me and maybe it's something for you too?"In particular, when things are difficult, I find it so helpful."So much so that when people ask me how I managed to not get burned out as I started and grew kikki.K for over 20 years - working at a hectic pace - I tell them it's thanks to my ritual of Morning Pages journaling.I write whatever comes to mind. Literally just writing in the way that I think. Dumping thoughts on paper as they come... helping me clear my head and heart and set me up for the day ahead.Some of the key things you'll learn in this episode:How to go about Morning Pages journaling.How beneficial it has been for me as a morning ritual and why it might be for you too.How to just keep your hand moving and write - as if no-one will ever read what you've written.Not to worry about being logical or 'right' as you write.If you're interested then you can read more about it here...And you can browse our new Dream Life Morning Pages journals here... I’ll be back next week with another guest so be sure you’re subscribed to the podcast, so you don’t miss. Love,Dream Life Founder   SHOW NOTES:Learn more about the magic of Morning Pages journaling in my Blog hereJoin me in my Personal Growth / Book Club - GROW to study The Artist's Way in August'22 here.Join the Dream Life Podcast Facebook Group here - and jump into discussions and learning with like-minded people.If you love this episode, don’t forget to subscribe for more inspiration – and please tell us what you thought by leaving us a review! Find yourself a beautiful new personalised journal here.Come see a glimpse of my morning walks in local forests.
