    Why you need this journalRecovering from divorce and the emotional trauma that goes with it does not happen in a linear fashion. We have ups and downs, good days and bad days. Wins and losses.Over time, the good days begin to outnumber the bad days. But you never know when something will trigger a memory, a thought or an emotion.This can set you back. But through journaling, you honor your emotions and your right to feel. You also track your progress. And this promotes healing.By recognizing and acknowledging that these feelings and emotions are real, you give a voice to that part of you that has too long been denied, pushed aside or rejected. The part of you that cries out to be heard. Journaling provides you with a safe platform for venting. As you begin to get those negative thoughts and feelings out, there is a release of negative energy. You will feel relieved…and heard.While divorce can leave you feeling powerless, victimized and overwhelmed, journaling can help you see things more clearly and often in a different way.As you work through the process of discovering where your power lies, what options you have, and learning what strengths you have (many you didn’t even know you had), there comes a sense of peace that will settle over you. You will realize you aren’t powerless after all.And while you may feel you’ve been victimized, you will begin to understand that you don’t have to remain a victim. And in time, the overwhelm, fear, pain and anger will start to ease. Eventually those negative emotions will be replaced with joy, confidence, happiness, strength and growth. Following the processes within this journal is cathartic. And being able to look back at where you were, and measure that with where you are now, is healing. By documenting your journey through journaling, the growth is measurable and if you aren’t journaling you can miss the measure. Life is full of challenges and disappointments. By learning to grow from an event as traumatic as divorce, you will gain perspective on other things you may encounter.By putting your thoughts and feelings related to divorce into a place designated specifically for that part of your life, you begin to feel in charge of your life and you learn to make choices that serve you better.The processes in this journal will help you grasp the reality that some things you have no control over, and maybe never will, and yet, there are many, many, many things you do have control over.Your power lies in learning which doors are yours, and walking through them with courage and confidence. So get started on your healing journey today and learn for yourself how to transform your pain into joy.
