Shells Journal

Paperback (Independently published Sept. 29, 2019)
120 lightly lined writing pages provide plenty of space in which to write favorite quotations, poems, and personal reflections. Acid-free, archival paper takes pen or pencil beautifully.

Keeping a journal is a powerful mental health tool.

At the American Psychiatric Association says: "Journaling can provide general wellness and self-improvement benefits, such as making you more self-aware, boosting creativity and helping you build better habits. Journaling can help you better understand your feelings and emotions and help you manage stress. Writing about things that have frustrated or upset you can help you to let go of some of the stress and gain perspective.".

Overall, journaling/expressive writing has been found to:

  • Boost your mood/affect;
  • Enhance your sense of well-being;
  • Reduce symptoms of depression before an important event (like an exam);
  • Reduce intrusion and avoidance symptoms post-trauma;
  • Improve your working memory (Baikie & Wilhelm, 2005).
In particular, journaling can be especially helpful for those with PTSD or a history of trauma.
