I have been thinking a lot about my writing lately and have two different journals now that are digital; and have been writing in them consistently the last week. I have one that is my personal journal and one that is a composition journal where I write personal thoughts down. I have also challenged myself to a writing prompt journal and included a gratitude journal. I’ve becomes obsesses with writing in them and my writing practice is in full swing. I’m challenging myself every day with them.
I have also ordered leather bound journal I’m going to use for my year project starting on the 12th of February. I’m still working out the details but hope to write there and then chronicle it in my blog on every Sunday through the year. I am excited for this challenge and will pull numerous things out of it to post here so those posts might be a little chaotic but I think it will be interesting to share a full year of my life.
One last thing that has changed, is that I have fully dedicated myself to meditation. I have jumped in and out of meditation for a few years and the last time I did 69 practices in a row and never felt better mentally and emotionally. I’m not sure why I stopped but I miss feeling that way and just the 2 days I have practiced have made me feel a lot better.
So, lots of changes and things to keep me focused…even cooking is becoming more of a focus for me, trying new recipes and different foods.
So there it is my life changes and kind of my resolutions that I hope to keep not just for this year but for the rest of my life.h
Sounds like these new changes require some decipline. Kudos to you.
I have several journals, health,work, etc & can’t stay motivated. I’ve been advised to meditate, but haven’t even tried yet.
I’ll be rooting for you & looking forward to what you share over the next year. Oh, feel free to share any new recipes as well😁.

It is definitely taking some dedication and discipline. I’ll put some recipes on there as well, I always liked cooking but I’m on this Mediterranean kick right now and really enjoy the flavors. I recommend Calm for meditation if you do try it, it can be done free or pay.

Oh OK, thanks for the tip, I look into Calm.
As for cooking, I really have wanting to try new things, which is just about everything cus I’ve enjoyed the same foods all my life but now at 50, it’s time for a change, lol.
