Hi Lisa, I especially like the approach of focusing on the positivity and gratitude for the new year instead of what we need to “fix”. You have moved the needle for me to begin journaling. Thank you for that and looking forward to this new year with you! I thoroughly enjoy your channel.-♥-
❤📖My daily morning devotion comes from “Our Daily Bread”. The devotion is always based on a verse or passage. I re-write the verse into my own words as a prayer. It’s been soul changing for me. It’s a lil God wink every time 🙏🏻📖📝🕊️
A wonderful devotional and even better practice. You beautifully exemplify the value of small daily choices that have a powerful cumulative effect. Thanks for sharing! 💝
Sweet Lisa, this type of journaling will reinforce the positive vibes in our lives and putting them down in writing will help to blot out the negative ones. By the way I love that journal. Yes the cream pages are soothing and has antique vibes and the cover is so cool! I shall start journaling the positive way. A great way to end the day on an uplifted note! Love from Lin in Michigan. PS. Had a day of sunshine. Thanks for sending it my way!!❤❤
Yes! I hear you and thanks for sharing. Writing down positive attributes can bring up "ugly nasty, old voices" that want to weigh in! The only true voice that matters is from God who loves us completely. This is journaling the (actual) truth of who we are with intention! Can we trip ourselves up daily (?), of course, so then we can observe ways we do that with LOVING KINDNESS and build on all the blessed qualities that are the foundation of who we are, in our God-created beauty. I would love to go deeper into the conversation, but this video isn't getting much traction. 😩I may have to sneak the topic in other ways. 😜 I'd love to hear how it goes for you! 💗
Hi Lisa! Oh how I remember the days of my pink diary and locking it so no one could read it! Don’t know what happened to it but I am sure I tore the pages before throwing away! Thank you so much for this segment-actually watched it twice. I use a planner to record what goes on in my day, what I get done along with reminders; but journaling seems to internalize one’s emotions and thoughts on paper. In these days when time seems to go from one thing to another; sometimes fading quickly into memories, it’s difficult to assess what is really going on internally. I absolutely know that God needs to be first in my life and journaling may aid me in “staying centered” and focused. Thank you so much for the addition you are to my life as we always try to do the very best in the things we love (decorating, cooking, gardening) and serving God and those who are in our lives. ❤
Hi, I love what you say here and it’s so true - is isn’t always easy to assess what’s going on internally mainly because we’re so close to our thoughts and feelings that we can’t see them very well! Neuropathways in our brains are at fault! I loved your sharing here and look forward to more! Thank you! 😊 💝
I've have always made to do lists or plan things out on paper but can never seem to stick with journals. I would really like to try and make an effort with this. I'm sure it's beneficial. Thank you Lisa ❤
Happy New Year Lisa!! Oh this video resonates with me ❤. Part of my Self Care, is Journaling! I find it to be so Therapeutic!! Reflecting back every night of the Blessings that came my way, helps me to stay Focused and Grateful! Thank you for sharing your insight ❤❤❤❤.

“Moving the needle” are some of my favorite words. I’m delighted to hear this. More to come! 💝

☀️ yay! Yes, the battlefield is between our ears and whatever it takes to know we are dearly loved by God in every way, all the time.. 💝
🙏🏼 gratitude journaling directed towards God! Interesting; some hesitation to do journalism in past, perhaps due to negative evaluations? Thanks Lisa!
