So why in the world did I write a journaling book? Well, mainly one reason, my friends wanted it. Many contributed ideas and thoughts. I picked the best of these and put them in the book. It’s not totally true that I hate journaling, just in my life it’s more like “talking to my best friends” instead of journaling. But I do think it can be a helpful practice. For me, part of what gets in the way of journaling is perfectionism, and once I get it down on paper it seems “permanent,” but it’s not really. I can do anything I want with it, including tear it into bits, LOL. These journal prompts and assignments may be helpful especially if you’ve been through mold illness (as mold illness in particular usually entails a LOT of loss of possessions as well as loss of friendships, family, home, and community) but I think the prompts can be helpful for anyone who has been through any chronic illness, other losses or traumas, or grief. In this journal, you will finds prompts, assignments, ideas, and pretty art/photos. I hope it helps you along your journey of recovery.
