Unlocking the Power of Journaling with Erin and Michael

If I read this to you and just see how it sounds, and they'll be like: oh man, now that you say that- and those are my words- like all of a sudden it just brings this different perspective to understanding what's going on in your, in your brain.
Ever wondered how putting pen to paper can transform your life? In this episode of 'Middleish', hosts Erin Green and Michael Gray dive into the tangible benefits of journaling. Whether you're a seasoned journal keeper or just curious about starting, this episode has something for everyone.
Erin and Michael share their personal experiences with different types of journaling, from expressive writing to food logs, and discuss how these practices have helped them organize thoughts, set goals, and reflect on personal growth. One of the key takeaways is how journaling can make abstract thoughts more concrete. Michael explains, 'When you write something down, it often brings a new perspective and clarity to your thoughts'.
This simple act can help you identify patterns in your behavior, like emotional eating or mindless snacking, and make positive changes. The episode also touches on the emotional and mental health benefits of journaling. Erin highlights how writing can serve as a stress reliever and even boost endorphins. 'For me, it creates an awareness of priority which bleeds out into other areas of my life,' she shares. But it's not all about writing.
Erin recounts a heartwarming experience with her grandmother, emphasizing the value of conversations with elderly loved ones. 'Talking to someone who has seen so much can provide a calming and reassuring perspective,' she says. If you're looking to start journaling, Erin and Michael offer practical tips and prompts to make the process enjoyable and effective.
Tune in to 'Middleish' for an engaging discussion that might just inspire you to pick up that pen and start journaling your way to a more mindful, organized life.
