On December 1st, the first new moon of December, I co-facilitated a session on the "Art of Journaling and Intention Setting for Mindful Living". This was one of a series of wellness workshops for healthcare workers organised by Dr. Shazanna Ramsaroop of the Meraki Medical Centre.

Journaling is an activity that I find very helpful as I process my thoughts and emotions very well through writing. As I've gotten older and more aware of various healing modalities I have also explored other ways of journaling such as art journaling (as I connect more freely to my creative side) and gratitude journaling (which I started as a serious practice in 2018 and have continued since - you can find posts here and here from Gratitude challenges that I've taken part in).

I incorporate journaling into all of my retreats and programmes (find my free 21 day programme here!) and have observed time and again the insights that people gain from this practice. Being invited to share for this workshop was very much in alignment with what I already do.

In this workshop I shared about the power of intention setting and the practice of sankalpa, before we moved into discussions and activities to prepare ourselves for journaling, we explored types of journaling and then moved into art journaling our intentions.

This was a small group who expressed how freeing it was to discover and explore how they could express themselves and process their thoughts and feelings. Dr. Shazanna has shared here her experience of the workshop.
