Finding Journaling Inspiration: How I Use Magazines For Creative Prompts

In this video I share my process of finding journal prompts from magazine articles. I walk you through various articles from a Flow Magazine that sparked my interest and share journal prompts based on each article"s theme.
At the end of the video I share one of my journal spreads I created based on one of the prompts.

Loved your Past and Present me double page spread. That is something that has been on my mind to do, but I was worried I might get too depressed (disabled now so all the plans I put on hold are harder to reach) but like you say I have still achieved some great milestones that I am proud of so this is a good way to remind myself of the things that brought balance to my life that I could revisit. Some I have already started on like journaling. Thanks so much for a great video. Varsha 🎊 🎉

So glad to hear that you enjoyed this video Varsha :) I can totally see how making a Past and Present Me page can be difficult or even triggering to some. I guess one could add parameters or filters to this prompt to make it feel safe to explore only certain areas of one's life. I am glad to hear that journaling is bringing balance to your life! All the best to you!

What a precious magazine. Great journaling idea in there. I’d love to hear more about the book you mentioned. I love the cat pouch.

Thank you so much Kavetta! This magazine used to be available in English as well, but unfortunately they couldn’t keep that up 😕 And I’m so happy to hear you love the pouch. I’m hoping to have that available for order soon.
