Late last year, I realized the state of my home has a direct impact on my stress levels and emotions. I’ve worked tirelessly to let go of 2023 items in our home this year. But sometimes, when my rhythms go by the wayside, the overwhelm sneaks in. Taking my frustration and other emotions to my journal allowed me to “let it all out,” while maintaining a level head with my husband and kid. It also allowed me to write out everything I needed to get done around the house so i had a game plan. This is so much progress for me. Journaling is a way of managing my stress. It’s a way to process my emotions in a healthy way. I’m proud of this response. #stress #stressmanagement #journaling #overwhelm #overwhelmisachoice #takeyourthoughtscaptive #processemotions #emotionalhealth #counseling - @transformingbeth
