I have done my fair share of journaling over the years. Journalling helps a lot of people become in touch with their emotions and inner selves as they process events of day-to-day life. Journaling even once in a while is an excellent way to spend time with and to get to know yourself. If you’re new to journaling and don’t know where to start, try any (or all) of these 14 journaling prompts for self-reflection.
