[@aliyahali9292]

I absolutely love journaling, I can't go a day without writing. Thanks for the video.

[@ShainaLeis]

of course, thanks for watching : )

[@caitlingrant6931]

Oh my goodness I love this video! Pray Rain Journaling is new to me and I am so excited to learn more. Love all of your awesome stuff :-)

[@ShainaLeis]

+Caitlin Grant Thanks so much! I can't believe you've never heard about it. It's great and a lot of fun!! xo

[@meikexd5043]

My first diary was when i was 8 and then the second on age 10 and 11 and now im 12 and i am still keeping many diaries! ♥️

[@ShainaLeis]

Love the dedication :)

[@vaishalikamath7486]

Aww that's so great! 😊 I've been writing since I was 6 and I'm 11 years old now!! I also have many diaries!! 🥰

[@nelsong2012]

Hi dear Miss Shaina! I'm an English learner from Brazil. I really appreciate watching your videos. They are very interesting and useful. Thanks for making them. Receive a friendly hug from Brazil! :)

[@ShainaLeis]

Welcome, welcome : ) Happy you enjoy them! I'm getting so many viewers from Brazil, I love it 😊

[@FidaIslaih]

I love journaling! I've heard similar things of a pray rain journal, I will try it out! Same goes with the self coaching. Thank you for bringing it into the light. Btw, I loved your intro!!

[@ShainaLeis]

Thank you!! Pray rain journals are my absolute favorite : ) p.s. It's nice to meet you ☺️

[@exoticbrian1275]

@@ShainaLeis Hi i have 3 journals

[@noavdh]

I'm so annoyed at my for never actually following through with a journal! this video inspired me loads tho!

[@ShainaLeis]

Actually putting the pen to the paper is definitely the hardest part!! Happy you found some inspiration through this video : ) xo

[@naimathompson8816]

i love whole foods too lol. and SUNFLOWERS

[@ShainaLeis]

+Naima Thompson gratitude journals are so easy to keep and so powerful 👍

[@Aarenthewriter]

Been a pleasure to watch your journaling videos, Journaling is something I wish to go back to since Ive been 12 and as an adult, I love to write my feelings down, hoping my higher power supports this endeavor ✍️📓

[@ShainaLeis]

Glad you like them! Carve out the time and just do it 😉 and let one journal entry after the other be your motivation to keep going!

[@Aarenthewriter]

Shaina Leis thank you for your reply! ❤️📓✍️

[@marianaziz3934]

This vides in courageous me to start journeying and I honestly love your uplifting personality and humor I seriously smiled through this video. Thank you.

[@ShainaLeis]

+blxzing_ emotions I'm glad I achieved my goal of bringing a smile to your face, Good luck journaling!! Let me know how you make out : )

[@katrinawashington6271]

I use my journal to cut magazine clippings write how I feel and my goals

[@ShainaLeis]

I like that! Definitely more like an art journal. Thanks for sharing : )

[@afterschoolcartoonsplutotv2367]

What a coincidence? I do the same thing in my journal.

[@SiriusBlu3p]

yeah! the law of attraction haha its SO SO FUN i usually do it before bed and when im on the toilet haha idk is that strange? well it helps keep your spirits up when you do it multiple times a day and associating it with something you have to do like having a shower or eating food you wont forget to do it either lol , writing it down before bed and thinking about it during the day is a great boost to your energy even if everyone else thinks your a strange pumpkin =P

[@ShainaLeis]

+Nanami~ HAHA I don't think it's strange. Whatever works! I'm ALL about that boost of energy during the day. It's crazy how powerful our minds are- and how we can rev up the feelings (any feelings) at any time regardless of what's going on int reality. Awesome stuff. Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoyed it!

[@lexipenney4855]

You deserve wayyyyyy more than 367 subscribers!💗 Your videos are amazing!

[@ShainaLeis]

+Lexi Penney Thanks so much Lexi! I'll get there lol

[@crazyperson3564]

this is awsome, girl :D Do your best!

[@Hexelixe]

How I use my journal? I vent a lot, I write in all those things I want to say but I don't (because it wouldn't be wise to say, you know, yeah, that kind of things), and I also use it to put in there all my crazy theories and half cooked ideas. :-) It's kind of cool (I think) as you let yourself philosophize on different stuff, and then years later you read it again, come back on the idea and write a new post about evolving the idea or what would you change about it. :-) It shows your mental evolution too.

[@ShainaLeis]

Hi Suzanne! Love all these ideas. Sounds like you journal regularly 😛 thanks for watching!

[@wellwithplexus7324]

I'm also obsessed with journals (mostly for ideas I'm having - upgrade from Post Its) I think you'd love a book called The Circle Maker, that's about prayer and it's totally changing my journaling methods re prayer, and it's powerful stuff! :)

[@ShainaLeis]

I will definitely put it on my list for "Books to Read." Thanks so much for the recommendation. I too, also love writing down all my ideas. I find those small pocket notebooks much easier to use for that purpose. I'm a POST IT girl too : )

[@kaihoover1692]

I use the rose(somthing good today's) bud(somthing that will be good ) thorn and somthing bad)way

[@ShainaLeis]

I LOVE this activity. A family I used to work with did this at the dinner table every night and it was the first time I had heard of it. I'll definitely be doing it with my kids one day : ) Thanks for watching Kylie!

[@Snapchat2011]

I honestly cannot stop watching this video! I'm so obsessed with journaling myself. I have a million of them! You really inspire me to continue journaling.

[@ShainaLeis]

I'm so glad!

[@malikmayo6531]

I love this idea could you this about life goals and things as well? do your journal have to be based on one topic?

[@ShainaLeis]

There are no rules when it comes to journaling...really whatever feels best for you. And YES!! The pray rain journal can be used for life goals, career, money, relationships, etc! I'm making another video about journaling in the upcoming weeks...stay tuned : ) and thanks for watching!

[@malikmayo6531]

+Shaina Leis ok i will thanks so much , and one last question how often do you journal?

[@ShainaLeis]

Honestly I go through phases- sometimes I'll do a personal challenge and journal every night for a specific amount of time. Other times I'll break out my journal sporadically when something is upsetting me/ I'm going through a rough time. If I'm doing a pray rain- I'll do that once a day!

[@malikmayo6531]

+Shaina Leis ok great i be in touch I am about to start mines tonight thanks again very inspiring

[@lpspapernpen9080]

I have literally 17 journals

[@ShainaLeis]

[@NitasNiche]

I love journaling! But I've never heard of a pray rain journal (though I've heard of the law of attraction and dream boards and stuff like that). I will definitely start a pray rain journal. What a good idea! Thanks! :D Just recently subbed btw!

[@ShainaLeis]

Thank you for subscribing ☺️ and watching! Yes, it's a weird name, but an awesome awesome (law of attraction) type of journaling. Let me know how you make out : )

[@natlol5632]

"Like you would your friend" I'm using a journal cause I have no friends 😂

[@ShainaLeis]

It's definitely a great tool, but make sure you're getting out in the world (and taking action) to solve this "problem!!"

[@natlol5632]

Shaina Leis I am trying to do so, thanks!

Thank you. Thank you so much. I got into your channel by accident, and I suddenly became so inspired. I used to do journaling, too when I was younger. But I don't know. I think I stopped when my life got messed up. And now I'm thinking of doing it again.

[@ShainaLeis]

Welcome to the channel :) Ironic...we need journaling the most when our lives are a "mess" 😝

[@cherrificlife]

Thanks. Yeah. I think I should start again 😊

[@danapop8916]

I love the start how you are writing to your journal LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL XDDDD

[@ShainaLeis]

Haha thankkkkssss

[@OliveraK]

When I first saw your video, I thought not to listen to it because you are so young and I didn't want to end up in some college stuff, but I am a curious creature and I did it anyway. I was surprised how well you pack all the information, it is so easy to watch, no intrusive babbling, you are fun and, I subscribed! You rock, girl!
I used to write quotes from books I've read and sentences from the foreign language that were constructed more creatively so that I can learn like a native speaker.

[@ShainaLeis]

Hey! Such a nice message. Thank you for giving me a chance 😉

[@antanator1454]

And how to stop fake friend from putting you down another suggestion ❤️❤️❤️

[@ShainaLeis]

Thx

[@paigez7680]

I have a shaina journal where I take notes of your videos. Then every so often when I update my vision board I will use some quotes n add them. Or I'll refer back to it for inspiration. I also will write notes from other inspirational videos from other UA-camrs too.

[@ShainaLeis]

I love that! Tells me you’re serious about applying the concepts and not just learning. That’s where all the magic is ❤️

[@tseringnyima2925]

Thank you...my natural tendency when I write is reflection. I enjoy reflecting on events in life but often I just end the process abruptly.

[@ShainaLeis]

hmm interesting. glad this could help a little!

[@jnovaylpn1]

hey im new to YOUR channel

[@ShainaLeis]

Hi : ) Glad you're here!!

[@maze.harapeco]

I write my feelings on a paper whenever I am angry, sad , happy ,or disappointed and then burn that paper and fill the ash in an envelope and keep it in my journal
Its really relaxing!!!

[@ShainaLeis]

I love that! Super therapeutic

[@maze.harapeco]

@@ShainaLeis I have a request. Please make a video on how to keep your journal private cause I have no place where I can hide my journal and everyone's always looking over my shoulder . I have no privacy at all!
