Thursday Thoughts

Journal Prompt – Schedule a sacred date with yourself. You deserve time for your life. It is so important to schedule time with yourself. My mom taught me to “book an appointment” with yourself, whether it’s for 5 minutes or an hour. Do the things you love! Use this journal prompt to plan a date with yourself!

Journal Prompt – Set boundaries. Protect your precious time and energy. Setting boundaries doesn’t always have to be with people, you can set boundaries with certain things you do or even social media. Unplug, take a break. Give your mind a rest. Do the things that make you happy and surround yourself with people that bring you joy. Write about the people and the things you love with this entry!

Journal Prompt – Care for your body. Self-love and self-acceptance are the ultimate acts of self-care. Love your body through it all! One thing I’ve learned is that my body is forever changing, and I let it. I’m not 20 anymore, so my body is going to be different as I get older. Use this journal entry to be body positive, write down everything you love about yourself! Even if you have negative thoughts, explore the reasons why you have those thoughts. Are they your own thoughts, or because of what others say? Never let anyone tell you how YOU should feel, BE your amazing self and LOVE your amazing self!

Journal Prompt – Rest and relax. Release guilt and make your needs a top priority. You can’t control your past because it’s already happened, so let it go. You can’t control your future because you have no idea what’s going to happen, so let it go. Release the worry and the need to control. All you have to do is take care of yourself, the rest will work itself out. For this entry, write about anything you need to let go of, release it all! Start fresh this month!

Journal Prompt – Trust your decisions. March to the beat of your own heart. Even if you think your decisions have led you the wrong way, trust that you are on the path you are meant to be on. Trust the process. Take this journal entry to reflect on what brought you to this point and where you want to go from here.

Journal Prompt – Speak gently to yourself. Cherish the child within. We are our own worst critics. The words we say to ourselves are so impactful. If you were to go back in time and talk to your younger self face to face, would you say those words to that young face? Write a list of things you would say to your younger self, words of encouragement or affirmations. Things that you wish you were told growing up. You can use this list as affirmations to inspire you going forward if you’d like!
