Take some time to relax into the present moment by taking slow, deep breaths and allowing your body to become still and centered.
Start with gratitude
Begin each session of journaling by noting something that you are grateful for or appreciative of in your life right now; this will help put you in an open, receptive state for engaging with spiritual practice prompts.
Reflect on spiritual questions
Use the prompts as a way to expand upon your own personal thoughts and experiences with faith, spirituality, and religion.
Ask yourself questions
If you feel stuck or unsure of what to write about, ask yourself a few reflective questions like “What is the most meaningful spiritual experience I’ve had in my life?” or “What does spirituality mean to me?”
Listen for answers
Be open and receptive to unexpected insights that come through your writing. Sometimes our best guidance comes from within when we are listening deeply and expansively.
Don’t judge or censor your thoughts
Let your words flow freely without editing or judgment; this will help create an atmosphere of trust and openness that will invite more creative ideas and deeper insight.
