Journaling and reflection
A few lines after a few quiet minutes can help you notice patterns, remember what helps and see your practice grow.
A simple way to start a meditation journal
- Keep it close. Any notebook works. Leave it where you practice.
- Write little. One to three lines is enough. Consistency matters more than length.
- Use one prompt. Choose a prompt before or after practice and answer it honestly.
There is no right way to journal. If writing feels like a chore, try a single word each day.
A guided journal for the next 30 days
We are creating the 30-Day Meditation Companion: a short practice and a reflection page for each day, designed to follow on from 7 Days to Stillness.
No payment is taken. Contents and timing are not final.
