Journaling is a powerful practice for tracking progress and helping to get thoughts down on paper. I like to use my journal to get my thoughts down when they start to repeat in my mind, and also record To Do lists to keep track of all the stuff I’m trying to get done. My favourite thing to journal about, though, is Tarot readings. Being able to process thoughts on paper is so helpful, and it’s also fun to read back on old entries and see how far I have come. If you get into the habit of recording all Tarot readings you can also track what themes arise the most.
