Here's How To Journal Through Those Low-Mood Days
About this episode
On this episode of The Journaling Guy Podcast, I'm talking about Journaling through those days where your mood is low.
It's mid-February. The novelty of the new year has faded. The weather, here in the UK at least, is still cold, very damp, and impossibly miserable. So, what can we do about that?
Today's episode will help you clear that Mental Fog!
Here's the four-step process that I use and explain fully, in this episode.
1️⃣ - The Brain Dump
Write freely for 5–10 minutes.
2️⃣ - What’s Actually Mine?
Look at what you’ve written and ask "Which of these things are genuinely within my control?" Then Circle them.
3️⃣ - Today’s Emotional Weather
Then Write “Today feels…” Not “I am...”.
4️⃣ - One Gentle Anchor
Finally, write and ask yourself this... “What is one small, kind, stabilising thing I can do today?”
