Heads In, Hearts In: Babble Journal
DOWNLOADJanuary 8, 2021 - Michigan State University Extension
Journaling is a great way to reflect on thoughts and feelings. When journaling, it’s okay to babble and not have all of your thoughts or feelings organized into sentences. Babbling, or just getting the thoughts or words out, can be a great release of emotions that you’ve been holding inside. Use this activity to first brainstorm words or pictures to describe how you felt today, what you thought about and what emotions you might have felt. Then consider writing about today and what you think tomorrow will be like.
