20 Journal Prompts for Times of Uncertainty
Now that we are social distancing and self quarantining because of COVID-19, our new reality is a very surreal one. Times may feel tense and uncertain. During this time, it is more important than ever to take care of emotional and mental health. One of my favorite practices that has helped me through the darker times is writing. Writing helps me alchemize pain and usually provides some release of feelings. As we continue to face uncertainty, I have created some journal prompts that will help you express, shift and focus. These prompts can be used during any time of uncertainty, transition or change. May these prompts guide towards clarity and greater peace.
