Listen "Banishment"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, I share list writing as a journaling technique with prompts that encourage you to consider what you would like to banish from your life.
Using lists in your journal can be great for clarifying your thoughts, brainstorming solutions, getting past the obvious and capturing a lot of information quickly.
Journaling tips:
If you're unsure how to respond to a prompt, try writing "I'm not sure how to respond to this prompt but the thoughts that immediately come to mind/are currently on my mind are..."
If you stop writing before the music ends, you can go back to the prompt and ask yourself "And? What else?" or you can simply read over what you've written and highlight/circle/underline anything that stands out or that you might want to come back to.

NB: Please keep in mind that while journaling is often considered a therapeutic practice, it is not therapy.
There are times when journaling may surface difficult, challenging or upsetting thoughts, memories and emotions. If this happens for you, you can press pause, skip forward to the next prompt or simply end the episode. The most important thing is to take care of yourself.
If you feel you need help with your mental health and wellbeing, please reach out to an organisation and consider finding a professional to support you.
