First, I feel like I should preface this with I am not a journaler. I kept a diary briefly when I was a preteen (I am pretty sure I still have it in a box in my garage somewhere), but I have never have a deep desire to jot down my feelings or whatever those who do journal write about. That being said, there is some new research backing the benefits of journalling; from an increased mindfulness, people who maintain a diary tend to be happier and report feeling more connected to themselves and their emotions, and writing down your experiences seems to help some people work through difficult issues, kinda like a personal therapy on paper. So I wanted to give it a try.
