“The more light you allow within you, the brighter the world you live in,” says Shakti Gawain. The world within oneself can easily be expressed through journaling, which is a method of engaging in self-exploration and personal expression without using the common method of chain thinking.

Experienced journal makers feel that there is a great deal of power in the written word, which helps give an outlet for pent-up emotions.

In such situations, journal makers use drawing or making a collage to represent their feelings, which may not be adequately described through analytical writing.
