Sometimes, the reason we feel depressed, anxious, and lacking in confidence is that we've lost sight of our purpose. As children, we're encouraged to dream about what we want to do when we're adults.

Now, most of us will not have achieved the dream of becoming an astronaut or a vampire slayer, but what about those roles attracted us to the idea? Exploration of the unknown? The adventure? The danger?

Think about your current job. Is there anything in your current job that touches on what you wanted to do as a child? For example, suppose you dreamed of being an astronaut and are now a science teacher. In that case, you may find that fulfilling - taking children on a voyage of discovery and talking daily about a fascinating subject you love. However, if, instead, you're in a job where every day is the same, where the tasks are repetitive and mundane, there's nothing transferable. Perhaps you're not depressed: you're simply not involved with something that brings you joy. But when was the last time you thought about it?

Journaling isn't encouraging you to bin the job! But journaling will help you understand the elements of your life that lift you. You might join an astronomy group and get your exploration fix that way!

There's that saying isn't there - you can't control how people behave towards you, but you can control how you allow them to make you feel. That's a fine aspiration, but in reality, few of us are resilient enough to disengage feelings of hurt or disappointment, particularly when it's someone important to us who has let us down.

Psychologist Peter Clough describes the four traits he considers vital to mental toughness:

* π‚π¨π§πŸπ’ππžπ§πœπž - in yourself, a knowledge that you can reach your goals and that you'll not give up
* π‚π‘πšπ₯π₯𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞 - appreciating the curve balls life throws at you and seeing them as an opportunity to learn and grow
* 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨π₯ - some things you have no control over. Rather than complain, focus on what you can control and don't be derailed from your plan
* π‚π¨π¦π¦π’π­π¦πžπ§π­ - to achieve what you set out to achieve, that you have identified as making you happy.

Journaling can help you define your goals and allow you to reflect on challenges and how you've managed them. Journaling helps you learn about your four C's and lead you to increased mental toughness.

How do you feel about authority figures?

Think about your boss. How do you react when they ask you to do something? Is the reaction the same as when other authority figures in your life have made requests of you? Do you do as you are told, or do you push back? Does it depend on how you feel about the person asking?

Exploring how we feel about those we perceive to have power over us is an essential step in becoming more self-aware. It may also lead to a better ability to deal with fractious situations in the workplace. Journaling can help you uncover more about your relationship with authority and your reaction to it.

We've heard it said there are five important steps to achieving and maintaining good mental health:

πŸ”Έ Connect - with the people around you and your environment
πŸ”Έ Be active - boost your mood with exercise that encourages the release of feel-good hormones
πŸ”Έ Take notice - of what's happening around you, how others are feeling and acting, and your own wellbeing
πŸ”Έ Keep learning - stimulate your mind, creativity, and curiosity with new information and ideas
πŸ”Έ Give - helping others brings a sense of fulfilment and belonging

Journaling will help you determine how well you manage each of those five steps on a daily, weekly and monthly basis. It will also give you a point of reference so you can see how sticking to these five principles has impacted your mental health.

Journalise was founded by Mark Morton, who is determined to help raise awareness of Mental Health Self Care, particularly among men who are traditionally expected to be 'strong', not to cry or share emotion. His goal is to help men, and society in general, accept that emotions are part of the human experience and that life is richer when we embrace them.

Our journals are designed to help us all recognise our emotions and our emotional well-being so that we can learn to manage the outcome of those emotions more fully. Journalise offers journals that fit your stage in your journey, with options to help the novice journaler get started, or for the experienced journaler to progress.

Our vision is to normalise mental health self-care by empowering everyone with the tools and methodologies for self-discovery, in order to understand their drivers and motivations and unlock their true potential.

What does your perfect day look like?

What about a typical day? What would a perfect 'normal' day look like in the ideal world?

What would you achieve? What would you want to achieve? What would you want to avoid?

Now think about what happens during your day that prevents you from having the perfect normal day.

There is a perception that we should never fail. But if we don't fail, how do we learn, and how do we grow? For many people, a fear of failure holds them back from achieving great things. Instead of being afraid of failure, we should embrace it as part of the learning process.

Keeping a journal helps us to explore concepts such as failure: what does 'failure' mean to you, what does it look like? Where did that concept come from and who implanted the fear of failure into us? How do we deal with it when things don't work out the way we wanted, hoped or expected? Reflecting back through the journal will also help you see how your relationship with the concept of failure changes as you get to understand yourself better, and make peace with yourself.

Journalise journals are a tool to support you on your journey of self-discovery.

With varying levels depending on your level of journaling experience, our journals provide a framework that helps you to work through your thoughts and ideas in a structured way and gain an understanding of your personal goals and needs.

Journaling as part of your mental health self-care regime is proven to help reduce stress, manage anxiety, and to cope with depression. More than that, being actively present with your thoughts and recognising your goals and needs will help you structure your life with what you need to live it in a way that works for you.

What language do you use when talking to yourself? Are you kind to yourself? Or do you always expect more than is reasonable and then berate yourself for failing to live up to the unreasonable?

Think about the tone you use with yourself. If you used those words and that tone with a friend, how would they react? How would it make them feel?

Journaling helps you keep track of your inner thoughts, and when you start to think about the language you use, you may discover that you are your own worst critic - or your own biggest supporter.

Resilience is a critical component of good mental health. Having the resilience to keep trying and not let life's ups and downs erode your enjoyment of life and reduce your ability to function. Because that's what anxiety, depression, self-doubt, and lack of self-esteem do to you - they rob you of the ability to enjoy life.

Keeping a journal will help you explore your feelings, and events, how they made you feel, and how you coped. You can start to discover what your triggers are and why they are your triggers, and then you can start to formulate ways to have better outcomes when faced with a similar situation in the future.

They say the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is today. The same is valid for taking care of yourself.

It took our founder 30 years to recognise that he needed help and that his current coping methods were not working. So, he planted his tree.

Journalise is part of that tree, part of his journey into better mental health, with reduced anxiety, better self-confidence and improved self-esteem.

Are you ready to plant your tree?

It took me over 30 years to recognise that I needed help!
