Hey,
I am a big proponent of writing in a journal - I think it really helps me unload the scrambled mess in my brain. The thing is though, writing in my journal takes 1-2 hours of my time - not to mention the time it takes to get into the mood to write for 1-2 hours a day. How do you guys write daily / regularly? When I’m on vacation it’s super helpful to write in there, and I wish I could do that during the week. Typing is a solution, but I feel like I write with less efficacy since I don’t have a lot of time between sentences. My sentences while writing are a lot more well formed, I think.
What do you guys do?
Do you handwrite or type? I feel like when I type I could write 4 equivalent pages but have de-stressed the equivalent of a half page via handwriting
I type. The ASMR of clicky keys makes up most of the difference in therapeutic benefit.
I have a clicky keyboard too but it only feels good when I’m coding. It seems like the consensus is that I should just make it a habit and it’s benefits will come as I do it consistently, tho
