Want to learn how to get started journaling? You’re in the right place. This post will teach you how to use journaling to awaken your divine feminine energy.
One of the most commonly asked questions I get is “I’m having trouble with journaling, can you share your tips?”. Which always surprises me because I sort of thought that everyone was on the journaling bandwagon. Ever since I was a little girl, I was obsessed with journaling, in fact, I recently came across a small diary I had as a child. It has a cute little lock and key. I’ve always loved a fabulous little pen and chic little private book to write down all my thoughts. So, it has always been my assumption that every girl just loves to write in her diary.
What you may not know, is that as much of a journaling addict I am, it isn’t always that easy for me. However, there have been periods where I felt absolutely allergic to journaling. I would sit there with my beautiful journal, a brand new blank page, a full coffee mug in the morning and absolutely nothing would come out. I often felt that I just had nothing to say. So, I would close my journal and just go about my day.
Then, several days later, I would find myself in a funk, overwhelmed, frustrated or in a confused state of mind. I’d go through phases like this every so often. I eventually realized, when I am not journaling, I am not doing the inner work. I’m not doing the inner healing that is available and necessary for my inner peace.
I found that most often, when I would avoid journaling, it was because I was avoiding facing the truth about something going on in my life. Instead of looking at it, it became easier to just distract myself and move on from the situation. Eventually, the issue would come up in a more frustrating, stressful way.
The secret to my inner calm is doing the inner work in my journal.
A FEW TIPS TO HELP YOU START JOURNALING:
Use a guided journal. I have published 2 guided journals that support you by giving you journal prompts to work with. Using a guided journal makes it so much easier for you to come up with what to write.

Cultivating a divine feminine journaling practice can be a profoundly empowering and transformative journey. Here's a simple guide to get you started in five steps:
Set Your Intention: Begin by setting a clear intention for your divine feminine journaling practice. Reflect on what you hope to gain from this practice—whether it's to deepen your connection with your inner goddess, to heal past wounds, or to embody qualities such as compassion, intuition, and creativity. Write down your intention in your journal, infusing it with heartfelt sincerity and purpose.
Create Sacred Space: Find a quiet and comfortable space where you can retreat into the depths of your soul without distractions. Light a candle, burn some incense or sage, and adorn your space with crystals, flowers, or any other sacred objects that resonate with you. Invite the energy of the divine feminine to guide and support you on your journey inward.
Set the Mood: Cultivate a mood of receptivity and openness as you prepare to journal. Take a few deep breaths to center yourself and ground your energy. You may wish to incorporate gentle movement, such as stretching or dancing, to awaken your body and align with the rhythms of the divine feminine. Allow yourself to surrender to the present moment and the wisdom that arises from within.
Free-Flow Writing: Begin your journaling practice with free-flow writing, allowing your thoughts and feelings to flow onto the page without censorship or judgment. Write whatever comes to mind, whether it's reflections on your day, insights from your dreams, or messages from your inner goddess. Trust in the guidance of your intuition and let your pen be the vessel through which your divine feminine essence expresses itself.
Reflect and Integrate: After journaling, take some time to reflect on what arose during your writing session. Notice any recurring themes, emotions, or intuitive nudges that emerged from the depths of your soul. Consider how you can integrate these insights into your daily life and embody the qualities of the divine feminine in your thoughts, words, and actions. End your practice with gratitude for the wisdom received and a sense of reverence for the sacred journey you are embarking upon.
Remember, there is no right or wrong way to engage in divine feminine journaling—simply trust in the process and allow your inner goddess to guide you on your path of self-discovery and empowerment.
Ways to use your journal:
💕 Use it as your bestie. The place where you can vent even your most private thoughts, fears or situations you just need to get out.
💕 Use it as a place to write down your goals, your dreams, the things you really want to manifest.
💕 As you free write in your journal, your subconscious mind and higher self are always going to speak through your writing. It happens as we just allow whatever to come up, come up. So this is a perfect space to allow your higher self speak to you. A connecting with the divine always occurs through journaling.
So, if you find yourself feeling frustrated at things going on in life. Go work it out inside your journal. Don’t avoid what is going on for you. Inside my online community, The House of Bliss: Manifest Bliss membership, you will receive PLENTY of journal prompts that will help you get specific in every area of your life that may need a bit of inner work and healing if you need support in that area. You can also grab the guided journals I have created, the Blissful Living Journal or The Daily Bliss.
6 BENEFITS OF DAILY JOURNALING
Enhances communication skills. I found that the more I journaled, the better I got a communicating my thoughts clearly. When you write things out, it helps you process things through the writing, so that when you actually go speak to someone, you are more clear. If you ever find yourself fearful of asking for a raise or speaking your truth to someone, write it out first and it will help you feel more confident and assured.
Improves your sleep. One of my favorite things to do is journal right before bed. When you do this, you declutter your mind of all the things going on competing for your attention. When your mind isn’t working overtime trying to keep all the things together, it can relax and will allow your body to sleep better. Your posture will also relax, your body will become more loose and so you will find it easier to sleep deeply.
Helps you with weight loss. This might surprise you but when you are releasing all of your pent up emotions and thoughts onto paper, you lower your cortisol (the stress hormone). Long story short, cortisol holds onto fat for comfort. So when you are releasing your emotions in a safe and healthy way, your body feels safe to burn fat. (This alone would have me journal, too).
Builds your intuition muscle. One of my favorite things to do is activating my intuition through journaling. The best thing to do is using guided journal prompts that have you really stumped. When you have a hard time answering something, you stop the overthinking and take a few deep breaths. Write out the first words that come to your mind and that is usually your gut speaking to you. The slow, soft answer is usually your intuition coming forth. Keep journaling those thoughts and things out and it helps to amplify the volume level of your intuition.
Improves your problem solving skills. Many times I use my journal as a way to work out decisions. I will make a list of pros and cons of a situation to map it all out in my mind. If I am finding myself confused on a work thing, I will map out my entire plan or strategy and see what makes the most sense and feels like it would go the most smoothly. The journal becomes a total support system for your most pressing situations.
It activates your inner goddess. When you activate your chakra system, your spiritual energy centers, you activate your shakti energy. Shakti is your goddess energy. When your goddess energy is flowing, you feel alive, vibrant and full of healthy, happy energy. You can use your journal as a place to let out anything blocking your chakras & work through your emotional energetic set points. (Podcast episode on this coming soon). When you release inner beliefs and thoughts blocking your chakras, you open up your ability to flow into your goddess consciousness and you will be awakened into this state if done correctly.
🌹 Start by just practicing writing down your thoughts in your journal. I teach a lot about feminine energy and how important it is to be able to articulate how you feel. Practice writing down how you feel, what your body is telling you and what you may be needing in the current moment.
Try to do this for at least 5 minutes a day for a week. Pay attention to any shifts you may begin to experience .
