Save Big on Coursera Plus. 7,000+ courses at $160 off. Limited Time Only!

Journaling has been scientifically proven to provide significant mental and physical health benefits and to improve your overall quality of life. Unfortunately it's not always clear where or how to begin. After 10 years of writing almost every day, I'm ready to share what I believe to be the easiest and most effective method.

In this class, you will be given everything you need to begin and maintain a journaling habit. All you need is 15 minutes a day for 10 days. In this class we will cover:

  • How to benefit from journaling without it feeling like work
  • Letting go of getting things perfect
  • Tips for creating and maintaining a habit
  • 10 different questions to get you thinking about your life
  • How to create your own journaling prompts to spark introspection any time you need it
  • Much more!

Whether you've dabbled with journaling before, or this is your very first time, I promise there is something for you to get in this class. Enjoy!
