I have taken the liberty of designing twenty juicy journal prompts to help you discover more about your journey towards self-love.
Some of them ask you to tune into the positive stuff in your life and will urge you to invite more loveliness into your human experience. Others are designed to shift your ingrained perspectives and get you thinking differently. Some are intended to bring up surprises! Some will help you figure out how to design your life on your terms.
Choose one or two which really resonate with you or challenge yourself to do them all over the course of this month.
Enjoy!
(For those who don't like writing by hand - you are not excused! Open up a new document on your computer and start typing!)
1. Carl Jung said, ‘The most terrifying thing is to accept oneself completely.’ Write about your response to this quotation.
2. What
does it really mean to ‘walk your joy path’?
3. Which
three pastimes or activities tend to offer you the most satisfaction, contentment and flow?
Write about why these activities are important in your life.
4. When was
the last time you let someone else’s opinion affect your outlook in a negative
way? Write about the experience and about what you learned as a result of it.
5. What
would your life be like if you started taking more responsibility for your own
happiness?
6. Write
about your version of success. (Forget everyone else's version.)
7. List
your three greatest strengths. Write about how you have used them so far this
year.
8. What are
your deal-breakers and ‘no compromise zones’ in friendships and relationships?
(This is about identifying boundaries. If you struggle to figure out your boundaries, now
is your chance to get clear on some!)
9. What
does it really mean to ‘get into your body’? Why might it be an important thing
to do?
10. Set an
alarm for ten minutes time. Then, write your deepest truths. Don’t stop writing
– write whatever comes to mind until you hear the alarm.
11. Choose
one tough challenge from your personal history. Write about the strength and endurance
you showed in getting through it.
12. Write a
list of the negative and hurtful things you say to yourself but would never say
to a friend. (Once you have written them, imagine saying them to someone you
dearly love.)
13. What
would you do this week if you had no fear of leaving your comfort zone?
14. When was the last time you felt completely connected to the universe and/or spirit? Describe it in detail. (If it's been far too long since you felt that way, your task is to write about how you'd most like to feel connected.)
15. What
does it truly mean to be ‘the main character in your own life’ rather than ‘a
minor character in someone else’s’?
16. Where
would you be in five years time if you started owning your decisions and
honouring your authentic truth today?
17.
Whereabouts are you giving other people your energy whilst depriving yourself
of it?
18. What is the deepest nature of your creative spirit?
19.
Whereabouts are you currently experiencing unnecessary emotional pain? Why do
you allow it to continue?
20. What
does it really mean to ‘bloom where you’re planted’?
Much love!
