We'll explore a variety of journaling approaches, from creative and open-ended exercises to targeted tools for calming stress, processing challenges, and boosting motivation. Find the journaling style that works best for you.
"I am amazed to (re)discover the grounding and perspective-altering power of journaling."
- Yvette P.
"I was quite surprised about the insights and new perspective I gained."
- Patricia F.
"I really liked how some prompts spoke to each other and how some days build over the others. The connections were brilliant."
- Sujata S.
"My biggest take-away is how different journaling is with prompts than the stream-of-consciousness, 'morning pages' style of journaling I've done most of my life. It's helped me get more specific in reflection and the specificity has led to clarity on a number of issues."
- Kerry Ann R.
"At first, I thought the challenge would be a great way to get me started on my creative writing skill building project/goals - 15 minutes of attempting to let loose and free write every day. I've come to appreciate that it can be and do a lot more than that, including bringing greater clarity, anxiety management (and dream activation!)."
-Vanessa P.
"I learned that the subconscious has so much to share and tapping into it could often bring up insights, answers to questions and plans of action to forward my research."
-Rashida B.
Journaling — writing for your own eyes only — is a powerful, immediately accessible practice that has been shown to substantially improve both mental and physical health with just a few brief (10-15 minute) sessions per week.
In addition to:
Journaling also initiates a cascade of health-promoting processes that:
Anyone can unlock these benefits with just a pen and paper.
The 2025 January Journaling On-Ramp runs from Saturday, January 11 through Friday, January 31. Live sessions are offered at 11am Saturdays, January 11, 18, and 25.
Each of the 21 daily prompts is designed to be completed in 10-15 minutes. Daily sessions can be completed any time of day.
Weekly live sessions are optional and run for one hour. We will use that day's prompt for a chance to write together, followed by Q&A/discussion.
Don't worry about it. You do not need to complete every session to receive the benefits -- in fact the most-researched protocol involves journaling just 3 days a week for 15 minutes.
Journaling is for your eyes only. There are no rules, and you don't need special talents. "Good writing" (however defined) doesn't matter when you're writing for yourself, just like you don't need public speaking skills for intimate conversations.
Notebooks today attract less attention than phones and computers, but if privacy is a strong concern, write what you're comfortable writing — or write what you like and then rip it up. You can think of your journals as first drafts of your thoughts. You don't need to keep them in order to benefit from the process.
No, participants will not share their writing. On the live calls we'll share thoughts and reflections on the journaling experience.
The live sessions are a great way to connect, but they are not essential in order to complete the on-ramp and build your journaling habit. Video recordings will be available.
Just a notebook and pen. Writing longhand has documented benefits, but participants who prefer typing are welcome to use the digital tool of their choice.
Yes. You will receive the prompts by email. You will also receive a PDF at the end of the program.
