A Journal to Explore Your Inner World
"This journal is not the tool that will solve your life, this journal is the tool that will help you reconnect to that spark inside of you that can change your life.
It’s always being you."
I used to choose from running. I started to choose from stillness. Life started to feel mine again.
I connected with parts of myself that I wasn’t expecting:
Creativity - wisdom - intuition
And this is inside of all of us.
And if I’m completely honest I almost hold back from sharing it now - (the overachiever perfectionist part of me was taking over).
But almost every day I think about it and the impact it can have. From conversations with friends, family to ideas right before bed. This idea hasn’t left my brain.
It’s not only the running, the chasing and the external noise.
But our resistance to feel. Fearing the emotion will consume us, judging how we feel and resisting it because we need to be grateful, or positive. But this is the thing. Feeling is part being human. And once we can accept that, accept us a new world exists. You start to feel seen, loved and safe to be.

Lost in the rush of life, lost in the expectations of others, lost in all the information on self development and lost on who I was.
Information became a way to escape from knowing the truth of who I am.
Distractions were my way to cope with life.
Avoiding certain emotions, afraid they would consume me. Avoiding the silence and the stillness, anxiety would take over.
— until the question: what are your dreams and what are you doing today achieve them?
I had dreams. But I realized I wasn’t doing anything daily to achieve them.
So I started asking myself questions, some lighter other uncomfortable. Words didn’t came at first. But I committed to show up daily. After weeks of practice words started to flow.
Life felt easier. I had created space between me and my thoughts. I was discovering that definitions that kept me in fear weren’t even mine. I found a place that I could always go to whenever anxiety would come. A place where I could express free of judgment. A place where I could explore my inner world. A place where I felt seen, heard and loved.
