The benefits of keeping a journal are many. The act of writing can help with productivity, conciseness of language in conversation, process stresses and emotions and get them off your mind. There is evidence that journalling can help one work through depression, loss, and trauma. It also is a great relaxation technique. Goal oriented journals help keep you on track. Gratitude logging can keep one contented and humble. Brain dumping can ease stress and combat anxieties. Time management also can be improved by journalling. It can keep you honest with yourself about your life, career, and self improvement. It will bring better focus.
I personally use my traveler’s notebook as my planner, journal, list keeper and more. This means I have my journal with me at all times. I can find more time to journal because it is with me, I can reference something I wrote last Tuesday, and I can also compare mood and emotional well being with my actual calendar, therefore accounting for work and social obligations and there effect on my journalling, and life, without having a direct mention of them in my journal.
I am a pen and paper, leather and metal clips kind of journaller. The tactile part of the experience helps me engage the more ethereal part which is the author. Some want a composition book and pencil, and others want to talk to type into their cellphone. The writer must choose his or her own methods, for his or her own use.

The act of journalling has brought me through some exceptionally trying times. My tn has accompanied me all over the world and held postcards, receipts and snippets of memorabilia from many journeys. The pages have soaked up seawater on the beach, sun in the desert and tears from heartbreak. It is my perpetual companion. I hope that we at NeverEndingLoveLetter.com can help you find your companion.
