Welcome Spring with these Insightful Journal Prompts
There is no denying that springtime is a season of renewed positive feelings, like hope and joy. More daylight hours, warmer sunshine, and the ability to crack the windows refreshes us. There is something about shedding puffy winter coats and clunky boots that also allows us to feel lighter—in all the senses of the word!
If you are someone who feels as if they are waking up at this time of year and aren’t sure where to put your rising energy and good mood, below we’ve got some great questions for you to reflect on!
Choose one—or play around with all of them—and get inspired to look inwards. Getting clarity can help you feel more in-tune with what fills your cup and is a great way to not only recognize your needs, but meet them. This practice makes you feel more fulfilled, meaning you’re less likely to reach for food to soothe yourself.
- If your mood is feeling more positive this season, what is it that is creating this mental shift? How can you do or get more of it? What else in your life gives you this kind of feeling? (This can be a great journal or notes app entry to come back to next Winter when you feel like the snow and cold won’t let up.)
- What are you looking forward to this season? What are you nervous or worried about? Sometimes just getting concerns on paper can be a great way to have them feel heard and move forward with more confidence!
- What is a habit you did over the Winter that you want to keep doing? What is something you want to stop doing or let go of?
- What’s one habit you can start this Spring to support your mental well-being? Consider big and small things, from painting your bathroom to adding 10 minutes of reading time on your lunch hour.
- What are some of your favourite warmer weather foods? How can you incorporate them into your life? (And give yourself permission to enjoy them guilt free!)
