There\u2019s a lot of talk these days about finding the best prompts to get great answers.<\/span><\/p>\n

But did you know prompts can work wonders for <\/span>humans<\/span><\/i> too?<\/span><\/p>\n

A <\/span>Sasuga! Tips For You<\/span><\/i> reader wrote to me the other day:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI’ve been journaling recently and have found your newsletter questions amazing prompts for journaling!\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

That was a pleasant surprise\u2014I hadn\u2019t really thought about my writing being helpful for journaling!<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re not currently journaling, you might want to have a go.<\/span><\/p>\n

I struggled with journaling for years. Now, I find it invaluable for exploring thoughts and ideas\u2014and remembering what truly matters.<\/span><\/p>\n

If, like many busy professionals, you tend to neglect your selfcare, you might feel like your mind is constantly racing.<\/span><\/p>\n

Are you often telling yourself, \u201cI have to do this, I have to do that\u201d?<\/span>
\n<\/span>Replaying conversations that didn\u2019t go well?<\/span>
\n<\/span>Worrying about what <\/span>might<\/span><\/i> happen?<\/span><\/p>\n

Journaling is a powerful way to slow down those thoughts and start making sense of them.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Let\u2019s Talk <\/b>How, When, and What<\/i><\/b> to Journal<\/b><\/h3>\n


\nHow<\/b>
\n<\/b>Some people type their journals. I\u2019ve done that in the past. But I can type fast, so I prefer handwriting to slow down my thoughts.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re using a paper journal, you might be tempted to go out and buy a fancy <\/span>notebook. Have you looked around your home though? Maybe you already have <\/span>something that you can use? If it doesn\u2019t look so inspiring, you can cover it with <\/span>something more beautiful.<\/span><\/p>\n

When<\/b>
\n<\/b>If you want to create a journaling habit, I recommend journaling at the same time each day – for example after breakfast or before going to bed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Me? I\u2019m a morning person. After making myself a cup of Yorkshire tea, it\u2019s one of the first things I do along with meditating, reading, and reviewing my goals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But you don\u2019t HAVE TO do it every day. You can write more some days than others. Do what works for you \ud83d\ude0a<\/span><\/p>\n

What<\/b>
\n<\/b>Write whatever you like. Reflect on your previous day, answer a question, or just let your thoughts flow.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what I usually include in my journal:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The phase of my cycle that I\u2019m in (or now that I\u2019m in perimenopause I use the moon\u2019s cycle as reference)\u2014helps me to align and optimize my tasks and activities<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. My levels of sleep, energy, and mood and any physical symptoms<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. My word of the year and an key words I want to remember<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Gratitude for at least 3 things<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Accomplishments from the previous day<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. Whatever else is on my mind<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    One phrase I used for a long time to start my journal every morning was<\/span><\/p>\n

    \u201cWhat would make today great would be\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

    Then I\u2019d write one thing I really wanted to complete\u2014work-related or just for fun. It kept me focused on what truly mattered and gave me a sense of accomplishment when I looked back.<\/span><\/p>\n

    If you\u2019re not journaling yet, why not test it out? It can be a powerful way to slow down, reflect, and remember just how much you actually have accomplished!<\/span><\/p>\n

    \ud83d\udcdd 5 Journaling Prompts for the Second Half of 2025<\/b><\/h3>\n

     <\/p>\n

      \n
    1. What was the most unexpected yes you said in the first half\u2014and what did you learn from it?<\/b>
      \n<\/b><\/li>\n
    2. What did you say no to\u2014and how did that create space for something better?\u00a0<\/b><\/li>\n
    3. What do you not want to carry forward\u2014and how can you let it go?<\/b>
      \n<\/b><\/li>\n
    4. Who in your life might need more of your support\u2014and what\u2019s a small way you can show up for them?<\/b>
      \n<\/b><\/li>\n
    5. If you could press pause on worrying about time, energy, or what others think, what bold step would you take in the next 6 months?<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      If you\u2019d like more guidance on self-reflection and personal growth, these are just some of the techniques included in my private and group coaching programs.\u00a0<\/span>
