You can tell your higher self she helped at least one person. Well done and thank you.

Techniques:
1 - brain dump. For five minutes or so, just get all of your thoughts and feelings down. Don’t censor yourself.
2 - gratitude. Write down a few things you are grateful for - anything - they can be very ordinary.
3 - ask your higher self. Ask a question, and allow your higher self to answer through writing.
4 - bullet journaling - an organization method. No details provided, but she says it’s critical for her.
5 - expressive writing. Similar to the brain dump, perhaps the same thing. She mentions writing about difficult past experiences, with more intentionality to dig into the past.
6 - story worth moment. Each day captured by one line so you create a log that you can look back on significant happenings.
7 - goal setting and manifestation. You are far more likely to achieve your goals if you write them down.
8 - wheel of life. Rate all major areas of your life from 1-10. The categories are: Fun and recreation, physical environment, business/career, finances, personal growth, romance, family and friends, and health.
9 - holistic check-in. Write down how you are feeling, using “I feel” statements.
10 - weekly review. Review the past week, and plan on the upcoming week. Decide on a theme for the week, such as rest, and set a few goals.

Tips: keep it minimal in the beginning; set a timer for five minutes; habit stacking with other practices like meditation; choose a beautiful journal and pen.

Take action: Pick two things to get started, right now.

Personal recommendations: rip apart and throw away your brain dumps and expressive writing, otherwise you will censor yourself in case someone finds it. Loose leaf paper is better than a journal for this. // For story worthy moments, shop for a five year journal. // Keep your journals next to your bed, and consider doing a sleep and dream journal. // Write down your wins at the end of the day.

Lots of vids on Journaling, this is one of the best I have heard. Great job of editing the video. No pauses, ums, or ahs.

[A.L.I.S.O.N]

Just an FYI: A gratitude journal entry works best when you fully dive into sharing those things with as much detail as possible. It should be so clear that if another read it, they'd feel like they also experienced it. Creatively detailed. Just making a list doesn't activate the same biological changes, which is the point.

Here after Ali's post. 🎉 Congratulations 👏🏽🎉

Hi Izzy,

I hope you're doing well. I recently checked your YouTube channel and noticed there haven't been any updates for about five months. I just wanted to wish you good health and continued success. Your content is truly inspiring, and I hope you'll be able to continue sharing it with us.

[ThLstne]

Writing things down makes such a significant impact on my mindfulness & intentionality!!! I’ve just started journaling this year, and it’s done me wonders so far. This was so informative, loved every second of the video, definitely applying the methods to my own routine!!! Thank you so much for sharing your tips & experience with us ❤

Great video, I was in a beautiful marriage before my now ex wife left me, we were ALWAYS like two kids playing in a sandbox. We were best friends and we understand each other. We help each other 100%. i still love her and most times I cant stop thinking about her, i am doing my very best to get rid of the thought of her, but i just cant, i love her so much, i don't know why i am bringing this here for, i cant stop thinking about her.

[estrellasdelcielo]

I just discovered this video today and I think I watched it 4 or 5 times. I love the way you expand so much beyond just basic writing style and habits. Thank you so much for sharing this. I will begin to put into practice some of these concepts and experiment with what works best for me. Wonderful video!

[SWoodcheke]

I've journaled off and on for decades. It has totally changed my life.

[flyinnocentazn]

Please make a bullet journaling video 💕 would love to see how you set it up!

[gracetyau]

Literally one of the best YouTube videos I've ever watched, you are an angel!!!

Journaling is my all time fave for transformations. I love looking back at my old journals sometimes and just completely blown away with the things I find.. like who was she lol. Love this. Thank you Dr. Izzy!

[reynoldsresourcedevelopmen]

Dr. Izzy, thank you. Journaling is powerful, I wish to be more consistent. Love your energy, smile, and you are a blessing...

[mareenela]

I enjoyed your video as I do journaling myself. I had the same reasons why I did journaling as you mentioned on your video but lately as I’m nearing my retirement age, and “senior moments” often came. I find my journals a great help to remind of things, events & people who & which mattered to me. I really find writing my happy thing! Thanks for all the tips & ideas. May you continue your journey of journaling and I’m happy for you! 😊❤

[bhairavikarve]

This video helped me so much. I am starting today. We are so self critical of ourselves and journaling will put those thoughts in perspective. Thank you for this ❤

I'm excited to start this in waxing moon energies. When we write our goals in blue ink, they are more likely to be accomplished. Writing in longhand (cursive, but don't curse, only Bliss) grants access to the subconscious mind, and the correct formation of each letter cultivates the virtues represented by that letter. Additionally, the act of writing is an action that takes our desires from non-physical to physical because they go from thoughts to words. Then speaking forth our carefully worded declaration or decree ads another layer of manifestation that is indelibly imprinted on our inner and outer environment.
