Benefits and Evolution of Journaling

Journaling initially started as a self-improvement practice for Dennis about four years ago during his study abroad in London. What began as a casual habit for recounting experiences evolved into a meaningful introspective practice during challenging times, such as being at home during the pandemic and dealing with personal relationships. The personal growth and insights gained from journaling helped Dennis navigate difficult situations and connect deeply with himself.
