Journaling was never for me. I'm more of a note-taker than anything else.

I jot down passages, and thoughts of the books I read, but it always has the underlying purpose of accumulating knowledge or expanding my mind - of consuming information, rather than playfully creating something new.

It wasn't until I spoke with Kate that I realized what I was missing.

Creative journal helps us reconnect with our inner-child, increases creativity, and end thought-spirals, just to name a few benefits. It is an excellent tool to have in your arsenal and is certainly worth a try.

If you've ever been curious about the benefits of journaling, or are looking to upgrade your journaling practice, this is the episode for you!
