I had no idea there were so many techniques. Sometimes I do something similiar to clusters where I make associations around a word. Its interesting to see what peoples journaling preferences are. My journals are visually atrocious and I seldom ever read my old entries. I only save my poems and songs. Thats what I cherish the most. My songs.. they are like beautiful fire which burns me. I obsess over them and It can be exhausting bombarding myself with negative emotions. However, I worry sometimes we give the brain all the credit and not the soul. I see my soul/heart as a place. Like a garden of sorts. I have to water plants and pull weeds. Sometimes feeling pain is like a game of tag. What we dont take the time to feel might hunt us down later. So yea, I'm a crazy artist making offerings for the Gods in exchange for peace 🤣 And its tough but thankfully I am rewarded with grace. Why does anyone make art? Are some people destined to wrestle with demons on that holy battleground we call the human soul? On my most optimistic days I wonder.. If an artist wins the battle. If we can muster an alliance with the shadows. If we can save our inner world from destruction and transform it into strength and beauty.. Maybe. Just maybe it could have a similar effect on the outer world. And of course.. Welcome back 😊 we missed you ❤️
Most people are familiar with only a few journaling techniques such as Stream of Consciousness or Springboards (like journaling prompts), but there are so many out there! Trying new techniques allows us to grow with the practice, instead of remaining stagnant in one place - and especially as an artist, that is paramount. :) Thank you for showing up, Andre, and for the warm welcome back! 🙏
I appreciate hearing your perspective, especially when it comes to journaling. It's a treat just knowing someone else has a passion for it. Also, I just remembered a very cool technique! One that isn't on your list. So, I have tendonitis in both of my hands. I used to build light fixtures for 5 years, plus I've been writing and playing guitar since I was 12. So, how can one journal when their hands are too achey? You should totally add this one to your list. It may prove beneficial for others with hand injuries, etc. Sometimes.. I do audio journaling! I use a hand held recorder and just spill everything on my mind. I would even encourage you to try it if you haven't already. Not only will it give your hands a rest, but there is something so cathartic about using your voice.
Thank you so much. I have been journaling in many forms for years, but I like your simple and straightforward approach! Blessings, hugs, and lots of unconditional love to you! BroPhil
I love this video! I’m struggling with difficult situation on my job but your calm beautiful way of talking makes me feel better😊 I will try journaling!❤🇯🇵
❤Thank you I've been looking for this for a long time, I didn't actually know what is was, but journaling is what I need and what will help me. I know I'm on my way to healing
Am new to your channel. Apart from the techniques, I rarely hear about paying attention to the one preparing to journal. Like taking deep breaths to centre oneself and cultivate an open n curious mind. And last but not least: "mental health is not something you have but what you practice!" Spot on.
One of my journals contains a few of my original tartan designs to include all the associated technical data. Otherwise, my journals are just a place to put all my mental vomit.
Hey Ana , really nice video ! I was wondering if I could help you with more Quality Editing in your videos and also make a highly engaging Thumbnail and also help you with the overall youtube strategy and growth ! Pls let me know what do you think ?
Not the worst thing to do, but if you suspect you may have more than mild mental health problems please seek professional help. Some random person off the internet is not the best place to go. No offence to random people off the internet.
It's good to be back! Thank you for being here.
Subscribe so we can stay in touch. More videos soon. ❤
They say the person is there but not actually there
Mental health is something you practice. There is a lot of hope in this statement.
Such a beautiful voice. I once hosted a writing therapy workshop before, but hearing what you're sharing is so healing. Many thanks ❤
I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one that has a pile of beautiful blank journal notebooks because I didn't know how to start the first page! LOL!
Love from india❤

💚I chose a green heart because to me it represents growth. For me, your video has opened a new door for growth in my life.
💚💚
I really like that idea, and I will do the same because it is in the feeling.💚
Brain Health is a much better term with no negative implications as we have always known.
Hi Ana! Your video appeared in my feed at the perfect time! I really appreciate your inspiring information! 💖
Very informative! Thank you❤
