Vent Journaling... Get in Tune with Your Emotions and Free Your Resentments
Good morning followers!
I love this idea from Tasha Ina Church in her course on "Advanced Self-Care and Healing Life Coach Certification" I'm taking from "Transformation Academy".
It's called "Vent Journaling" and she suggests it's a way to release the old baggage from your past that you "feel" against someone you hurt you, angered you, disappointed you, etc.
This is a way of "finding your voice". You can take a few minutes to write it down, type it down, and then tear it up, burn it, let it float down the water, or have a ceremony with it ... the way you choose to release it is up to YOU!
I went online and found this amazing article from youaligned.com to give you steps to do your own vent journaling!

Here's another article from the wellnesscorner.com on the whole subject of Vent Writing and it's benefits.
Here's a free starter from dreamdasjournal.com. Sometimes it helps to have question starters. I'm always amazed at what is revealed. As I grow in this process, I'm becoming more compassionate and forgiving not only to myself, but to those I was most wounded by.

What I like about this process is I don't have to stuff my feelings and unlike a traditional diary, I can get it out, get creative with it, and then choose to keep it, or let it go. I also don't hold on to the idea of someone reading it. This is more of process of being emotionally mindful today and keeping myself free of resentments while allowing myself to write down the facts, feelings, and chatter. WHEW!!! some days I have a lot of that internal chatter! By writing this down, I can be a more present and pleasant person to be around with family, friends, and in the world.
Peace, Love, and Freedom,
Laura
