TODAY'S LEARNING
3 Journaling Prompts for Finding Clarity and Direction

Journaling is a powerful tool on the spiritual journey. By reflecting on our life, we can get a greater understanding of ourselves.

In this article, we'll explore five journaling prompts that can help you find clarity and direction in your life.

Prompt 1: What is the most important lesson you’ve learned so far in life, and how can you apply it to your future?

We can gain important lessons from the past that we can use in the future by thinking back on our prior experiences. Think back to a period in your life when you encountered a lesson that has remained with you.

How did the encounter go? What impact did it have on your viewpoint? In what way can you use that lesson going forward? You'll learn more about how your past has shaped your present and how to apply those lessons to build a better future by responding to these questions.

Example: The most important lesson I've learned so far is the power of self-care. Throughout my early 20s, I ignored both my physical and mental health since I was so focused on my profession. I ultimately had to prioritize my well-being and take a sabbatical from work due to burnout.

I now make time for self-care activities like exercise, meditation, and enjoyable hobbies. I've also learnt to say no to requests that don't fit with my principles or that stress me out needlessly. I'm aware that looking after my needs benefits not just myself but also everyone around me as when I'm in good health and balance, I can be my best self.

Prompt 2: What are your top three priorities in life, and how can you ensure that your daily actions align with them?

Setting priorities can help us stay focused on what matters most. Consider your goals in life as well as what you hold dear. Tell me what your top three priorities are. How do you make sure that everything you do every day is consistent with them?

You may make deliberate decisions that advance your objectives and assist you in building a purposeful and happy life by providing thoughtful answers to these questions.

Example: My top three priorities in life are family, personal growth, and career success. I consciously try to organize my day around these priorities to make sure that my daily actions are in line with them.

I make time each week, even if it's only for a short visit, to talk to or spend with my family. I also make it a point to attend significant family occasions like birthdays and weddings.

I set aside at least thirty minutes a day to read, practice meditation, or pick up new skills in order to grow personally. This could be getting up early, spending my lunch break working on personal growth, or listening to an audiobook while taking a shower.

I make a to-do list every day that ranks my top three chores in order of importance in order to succeed professionally. I also seek out opportunities for professional development, such as taking online courses and attending workshops.

Prompt 3: What is the biggest challenge you’re currently facing and how can you approach it with a growth mindset?

Although obstacles are an inevitable part of life, how we handle them can have a big impact. Think about the most difficult situation you are currently in. How can a development mindset be applied to it? What can this task teach you? You can change your viewpoint and identify areas for learning and development by providing answers to these questions.

Example: The biggest challenge I'm currently facing is a lack of motivation and focus in my work. I'm rephrasing the scenario and telling myself that this is an opportunity to form new habits and abilities rather than punishing myself for not being more productive.

To do this, I'm breaking down jobs into smaller, more doable chunks or making realistic daily goals like working for 25 minutes straight with a 5-minute break in between. By approaching this challenge with a growth mindset, I'm shifting it from an obstacle to an opportunity.

Reiki is the healing therapy created by a Japanese Buddhist named Mikao Usui over a hundred years ago, is based on a simple spiritual principle: we are all guided by the same invisible life force that controls our physical, mental and emotional well-being "being". When the energy flows freely, we can draw on reserves of unknown power. When you come across blockages (often caused by negative thoughts, untreated trauma or stress overload), we operate at a sub-optimal level.

This may seem like voodoo magic to some, even non-believers who have spent an hour with a skilled Reiki master (as they are called) have felt a positive change of some kind. Many describe Reiki sessions as a combination, a light touch of energy over the body as calming or rooted, for others, seems like an emotional realignment.

POSITIVE NEWS OF THE DAY

Sea Otters Returned to a Degraded Coastline and Ate Enough Crabs to Restore Balance and Cut Erosion by 90%

Against all odds, a distressed California coastal ecosystem is on the mend, in large part, thanks to the insatiable appetite sea otters have for crabs.

In a groundbreaking study published this week in Nature, scientists revealed that the return of sea otters to their former habitat in a Central California estuary has slowed erosion of the area’s marsh banks by up to 90%.

The resurgence of these charismatic marine mammals to the salt marshes of Elkhorn Slough in Monterey County sparks hope for improving coastal ecosystems and marks a significant ecological success story.
