It can be utilised as a means of self-expression, decompression or a way to practice gratitude. In one of her essays, On Keeping a Notebook, Joan Didion talks of journaling as a way to keep in touch with your past and future self \u2013 while helping identify priorities, habits and anxieties in the present.<\/p><p>Some of us feel perfectly at home documenting our lives \u2013 recording certain points in time within diaries, notepads and scrapbooks. While for others, the thought of writing in a journal hasn\u2019t even crossed our mind.<\/p><p>Whether you already write in a daily journal or you are looking for journal ideas and where to start, there are no rigid rules. It\u2019s all about finding the right approach that works for you and that adds meaning to your day.<\/p><p>So, how do you start \u2013 and what\u2019s the best way? In order to commit to the practice, you need to be clear on what you want to get from it.
