Why keep a journal?

Journaling is an excellent way to escape your hectic schedule and reflect on life as it unfolds.

Keeping a diary has been proven to offer health benefits. From reducing stress and coping with trauma to clarifying thoughts and resolving disagreements, many studies have concluded that there are tangible mental and physical benefits from routinely making journal entries.

For hundreds of years, scientific breakthroughs, historic achievements, world events, political uprisings, musical masterpieces, and unbelievably heroic stories have been captured in diaries.
