Sometimes people worry that using a journal prompt is somehow “cheating” or “not really journaling.” This simply isn’t true. Artists use reference objects and figure models when they paint, sculpt, and draw. Musicians use tuning aides for their instruments. Authors use writing prompts to practice writing and get their creativity flowing. It is completely okay to use a writing prompt for your daily journaling practice!

It’s also okay to use a writing prompt some days, but write about whatever is on your heart and mind on other days. Or use a writing prompt to get started, then continue writing on a different topic. It’s your journal and you’re journaling practice!

Journaling prompts for spring

A nice notebook makes so much of a difference when you’re journaling. You can journal on any scrap of paper, but having a pretty notebook that lies open and contains thick, high-quality paper so your writing doesn’t feather, bleed, and show through makes the experience much more enjoyable.

Bound bullet journal notebooks are popular for journaling, but I’m personally a big fan of spiral bound journals because they lie flat. This makes the easy to write in without cracking the spine or spending half your time worrying about holding the opposite page out of the way while you write.
