How to Journal Through Your Struggles
“You seem to have lost your original identity and have identified with your thoughts” -Patañjali
Having an understanding of your emotions is important in maintaining overall wellbeing because emotions and stress have a mutual relationship. “A greater understanding of the connection between thoughts and emotions can help us learn to handle our feelings better and to cope with emotional situations with others in a more productive manner” (Arter & Ford, 2013).

⇢ Which emotions do you find the most challenging to accept? How do you handle these emotions?
⇢ What are three things that can instantly disrupt a good mood and bring you down? What strategies do you use to counter these effects?
