In Journaling for Wholeness, you will write to, get to know and accept both the wise and lovable parts of you AND the unclaimed and broken parts. You will build a loving and compassionate relationship with yourself which will shift how you show up in the world.
This course provides a safe space for you to acknowledge and process your emotions. Unhook yourself from unwanted patterns and make decisions rooted in deeper understanding.
But this course isn’t just about the serious stuff. With a variety of fun and creative writing practices, you can start (or restart) a consistent journaling practice rooted in simple joy and pleasure. Here are some of the things you will be doing during the course: intuitive journaling, sound journaling, conversations with your creative self, making a commonplace book and my take on dream journaling.
Journaling for Wholeness is an experience of rediscovery and reconnection with authenticity, intuition and joy, so you can give yourself a break from pressure, striving and intensity.

Each day, you will meet one of your inner selves: your inner goddess, inner critic, inner coach, your shadow self, inner healer, inner child and inner wise self. This is a week of dialogue with each of them—to shine the light, unearth their wisdom and give them awareness, acceptance and even love.

“When I first started this course, my intention was to rediscover the joy of journaling and to just have fun—that's exactly what I got and so much more. Journaling the past few weeks made me feel happy and excited again. It allowed me to meet and get to know different parts of myself. It helped me see beauty in the mundane. Thank you for creating this course. It has definitely inspired me to keep journaling with joy.”

“This was a wonderful and much-needed experience for me. To think I enrolled on impulse. Thank you, thank you, thank you! The entire course helped me along in my physical and mental healing. This is such a wonderful preparation for the year and yearssss to come.”

“I'm super happy discovering and participating in this! I looved all the practices as it opened the world of journaling for me to just simply being boxed in to memory keeping and emotional vomit. I really appreciate starting this journey of being more reflective and intuitive while journaling. :) I'm a bit sad that I don't have a new challenge to look forward to every new day but there's so much I can go back to! Thank you for creating this journey!”

“I loved that the course gave me so many ideas to play around with. I like how open it was—we could really use the prompts as inspiration and take them wherever we needed them to go.”

1. A journal—This doesn’t have to be expensive or fancy. A journal that you are already currently using is ideal.
2. Your favorite pen—I am partial to fountain pens and use a variety with different colored inks so my journals are extremely colorful. But you do you: any pen that you can use for long writing sessions is perfect.
3. Extremely optional: Stickers, ephemera, markers, colored pencils
4. A computer or mobile device and internet connection so you can access the lessons.
