Through The Hard - Parenting Teens in Crisis

"Journaling is simply thinking through your fingers 💙"

Join us for the second part of my enlightening interview with Leif Holmes as we delve deeper into the profound connection between journaling and self-compassion. In this episode, we candidly explore the personal benefits we've experienced through journaling, the obstacles that sometimes hinder this practice, and the crucial steps to take when life's storms begin to roll in.

Key Insights:
  • Gain a fresh perspective: We often see only 10% of the problem; discover how journaling unveils the remaining 90%, offering clarity and insight.
  • Honor your experiences: Journaling becomes a powerful tool to examine the true impact of circumstances on our well-being, allowing us to honor ourselves in the process.
  • Embrace the pause: In a culture of constant motion, journaling provides a space to halt, acknowledge our wounds, and actively address them.
  • Cultivate anticipation: The more you journal, the more you'll find yourself looking forward to this reflective practice.
  • Practice patience: As you embark on your journaling journey, be patient with yourself, allowing the process to unfold naturally.
Tune in for an engaging and transformative conversation with Leif Holmes as we unlock the potential of self-compassion through the profound act of journaling.
