Kate Ramsey on Journaling: Your Secret Weapon for Mental Health

Journaling and journaling for myself exclusively is a way to connect with the inner me.
Ever thought about putting pen to paper to sort through your thoughts? In this episode of Recovery Radio, Kate Ramsey, a Clinical Supervisor at Retreat Lancaster, Pa., sits down with the host to chat about the powerful benefits of journaling. Kate believes that writing can be a game-changer for mental health, helping people connect with their inner selves and track their personal growth.
She shares her 'A B C’s' of journaling, making it accessible for everyone, even those who’ve never tried it before. Kate also stresses the importance of keeping your journal private, so you can truly express your thoughts without holding back. This is especially crucial for men, who might have been told to bottle up their feelings. Kate doesn't stop there; she encourages parents to let their kids have a private space for their thoughts too.
She also touches on other forms of creative expression that can complement journaling. Whether you're new to journaling or looking to deepen your practice, this episode offers practical tips and heartfelt advice that could make a big difference in your mental health journey.
