    Weirdly enough, I finally kept up with journaling when I started to do it in English (which is not my native language), somehow having to focus more on my words but also less (cause I don't feel the need to make it as "pretty" as I do in French (my native language), so for people who struggle that might worth a try :) I love that you mentioned that we should journal the way it works for us, just setting priorities in the morning is journaling already

      That's an awesome idea! I'm right now learning French and will be in France next year, so I'll just journal in French. Merci mon ami, c'est magnifique!

      Oh that’s very interesting! I also journal in English and not Polish! Somehow never wondered why but now that you mention it, it makes sense! Many thanks for watching and your comment !

      I never actively thought about the language I journal but now I see a pattern. When I am really really down and trying to process big events and traumas (like losing loved ones) I write in my native language. Every time I am trying to write positive plans and goals that I am excited for, all my writings are in English

      Funnily enough I also journal in english even tho German is my first Langauge 😅 I feel like I can Express myself a little better and I am more distanced from myself when doing it in a foreign language, which makes it somewhat easier - idk if that makes sense tho 😂

    I finally got consistent when I focused on my love of classical literature, poetry, history, and philosophy. I gather ideas, make connections, reflections, incorporate quotes and eventually added a section for one sentence per day prompt "what did I learn today or this week" that may or may not be related to literature or art. It's a joy, never heavy or burdensome. I don't have a set time, but keep it nearby. When I'm not home, I might make a note on my phone or paper, then add to my journal (more commonplace book, I suppose, than journal). Now I'm ready to experiment with prompts. Thanks for sharing!

    • @lostinadmiration

      I can relate to this so strongly. The more I write, the easier and more necessary it feels. I also now rarely go anywhere without my notebook. Thank you so much for sharing and most merry Christmas if you are celebrating!

    Once again saying lots of things that make a ton of sense but that never would have occurred to me! The idea about using prompts until you build up the practice is particularly insightful -- it makes me think of how after going to a bunch of yoga classes I got to the point where I could jam out solo without having to be like "this feels weird, am i doing it right?" which is a point I'd like to get to with journaling. Thank you!!

    i liked how you delved into the different forms of journaling as well as the mediums through which they can be done. i'm going to experiment with them during this month ❤ i feel like having these different approaches/mediums would make journalibg more accessible depending on your energy/mood/specific way you want to express yourself on that day etc.
    i think one thing that helped me with daily reflective journaling was noting down the mundane. things you noticed/heard/saw, a doodle, your fave song that day etc become small brush strokes painting the canvas of that day imo
    the blank page perfectionism thing is a pain tho lol so hard when you want the journal to look cute too hehe

    I really like the distinctions you made between the different kinds of journaling! as someone not very fond of journaling I found reflective journaling too tedious and utilitarian journaling a bit too methodical for me, but I can totally see myself journaling ritualistically! Maybe something I'll pick up for new years :)

    Very well presented Daria. Despite being passionate about writing, I find reflective journaling about daily activities very redundant as a lot of days our daily activities are repetitive. But whenever I visit a place or experience something new, I make a journal out of it and keep it as a souvenir.
    How do you journal about a book? I mean just your opinion about the content or summary points.
    Totally admire your tips about consistency. Will certainly try lighting the candles, especially in these winter months when the energy level already feels down.

    • @lostinadmiration
      @lostinadmiration  Год назад

      So about books - it’s sort of like taking notes on main points, plus if I liked the book / how it made me feel. Especially for novels I like to note how I enjoyed the read or not and why. I read so many novels I tend to forget which one was which - like with movies! Many thanks for your kind comment ☺️ sending you some warmth and sun ☀️
