- Apr. 16, 2024Journaling for Well-being
Life’s difficulties can all take a toll on our personal well-being. Unmet expectations, academic or workplace stresses, and relationship difficulties can leave us feeling disoriented and confused. When faced with such situations, our mind naturally tries to make sense of our experiences by creating narratives. These stories, often based on one-sided perspectives and incomplete information, can be limiting and unhealthy, yet we often find ourselves repeating them over and over. This can negatively impact how we view ourselves and how we perceive and interact with those around us.
