Moving Beyond Happiness Toward Meaning
Move beyond happiness toward meaning and purpose. A meaningful life takes some work, but it’s work that feeds your soul and creativity. Try journaling, reading, socializing and helping others.
Journaling & Journal Prompts
Everyone could use a good journal prompt, am I right? Whether you journal today, pick it up tomorrow or only talk about it right now, these journal prompts will be here to inspire your expressive writing (and your creative self-care). Many of these writing prompts are taken from episodes of the Let the Verse Flow podcast. You can think about them, talk to a friend about them or write about them. Your choice!
Compare Less, Grateful More
Comparison, especially comparing ourselves to social media images, can rob us of the ability to acknowledge our personal strengths and abilities. To counter the negative effects of social comparison, engage in self-affirming activities like gratitude journaling and building creative social networks.
