If you’ve skimmed through our blog before, you will have noticed that we’re pretty enthusiastic about all things related to journals. But it’s not just the craft of journaling that we love, it’s the impact of maintaining a reservoir of our plans, thoughts and ideas that matters most.
In this blog post, we discuss some of the benefits of maintaining a journal -- academic, professional, and personal -- with input from creators who have used journals in their varied backgrounds and applied them to meet demanding circumstances of different fields. Â
Managing work stress in a demanding professional career
“Before I started bullet journaling, I often felt anxious or overwhelmed with what I had to do for my projects,” Alysia, an archtectural designer, tells The Washi Tape Shop. “I had started journaling as a way to manage my tasks and write down all my thoughts to clear my head. It became more a creative outlet as I found joy in drawing again.
Now that I’m working, taking the time everyday to just turn off my mind and focus on journaling really just helps me to refresh myself and fight the feelings of burnout after long working hours.”
For Alysia, the benefit of journaling is that it serves a dual purpose, as both an artistic creation and a planning tool: “Its just time for myself where I only have to think about creating something that works for me and brings me happiness.
The best part is after creating the journal spreads I get to use it to help me organize myself and feel a little less anxious in stressful situations. The doodles especially help and bring me much joy using my journal!”Â
Navigating an academic journey
Estella is a creator who specialises in study content on both Instagram and YouTube. As a content creator with a large audience (of over 1.6 million subscribers on YouTube alone), Estella has to manage both her personal studies and the work of producing and sharing content. To help ease this sometimes challenging workload, Estella keeps a journal.
“Every time I sit down to write in my journal, I get two things out of my session: a sense relaxation and a reflection of where I’m currently at mentally / in my life,” Estella tells The Washi Tape Shop, noting that the sense of reflection she attains from her journal makes it much like a “Magic Mirror”. (“I guess that makes me the Evil Queen, but considering Cruella’s name is Estella, that’s not really surprising,” she adds jokingly.)
Not only does journaling help to reflect on one’s thoughts and feelings, but Estella has particularly benefited from using a journal to identify exactly how she feels: “So, when I’m feeling a bit distracted / stressed out, my spreads are largely scrapbooking -inspired and of the more crafty variety, because doodling, cutting stuff up, pasting stickers, etc really relaxes me and helps me zone out from the never ending monologue that is my brain.
And when I’m feeling very confused about what I want to do with my life or who I am or basically just having a mini existential crisis, I do a sort of “stream of consciousness” or “word vomiting” exercise where I write everything I’m feeling and thinking, and upon rereading, I then suddenly get a real sense of clarity and understanding of what all these thoughts and emotions actually mean and more or less where they’re coming from.”
Being able to identify difficult moments and emotions, and learn from them, Estella has applied these lessons to benefit her academically: “And for me, the two biggest obstacles in my academic journey have always been self-doubting and worrying / distracting thoughts, so having a “magic mirror” that helps me sort through them + understand myself + what’s working or not working is crucial for me to stay focused or feel like I have my feet on the ground and know what I’m doing.
So if you ever feel like I’ve just described, I highly recommend having a journal as your companion / evil minion throughout the school year (or just life in general, that’s cool too).”Â
Achieving mindfulnessÂ
Finally, equally important element of daily life that can be often overlooked is our relationship with our own thoughts and feelings. Journaling is also useful for improving on our mindfulness and working on personal growth.Â
Riya, a yoga educator, agrees: "In anyone’s spiritual journey, the most important conversation they need to be having is with themselves. We’re usually so caught up with communicating to everyone else -- Instagram, texts, emails, calls -- that we forget to pause and check in how we’re doing. For me journalling has just been that grounding reminder to talk to myself & organise the thoughts that run astray."
These are just some of the factors creators cite among their many reasons for journaling. If you're a student, a professional, or someone looking to further your understanding of your inner-most thoughts and feelings, then a journal might be the ideal tool to start using.Â

I’m sharing my experience to help others who may be going through the same situation. I lost 260,870 in cryptocurrency to an investment scammer and thought it was gone for good. After exhausting several options, I eventually got assistance from Brunoe Quick Hack, and to my relief, the stolen funds were successfully recovered. The process restored not only my assets but also my confidence after the scam. This experience will always remain a part of my story, not as a symbol of failure, but as proof that even in the face of significant loss, determination and careful action can sometimes lead to unexpected recovery.CONTACT>>> BrunoeQuickHack-(@)-Gmail.Com

I am James Robert from Chicago. Few months ago, I fell victim to an online Bitcoin investment scheme that promised high returns within a short period. At first, everything seemed legitimate, their website looked professional, and the people behind it were very convincing. I invested a significant amount of money about $440,000 with the way they talk to me into investing on their bitcoin platform. Two months later I realized that it was a scam when I could no longer have access to my account and couldn’t withdraw my money. At first, I lost hope that I wouldn’t be able to get my money back, I cried and was angry at how I even fell victim to a scam. For days after doing some research and seeking professional help online, I came across GREAT WHIP RECOVERY CYBER SERVICES and saw how they have helped people recover their money back from scammers. I reported the case immediately to them and gather every transaction detail, documentation and sent it to them. Today, I’m very happy because the GREAT WHIP RECOVERY CYBER SERVICES help me recover all my money I was scammed. You can contact GREAT WHIP RECOVERY CYBER SERVICES if you have ever fallen victim to scam.

I acquired my first home at the beginning of the year. To some, lottery players appear ridiculous, while we view it as a chance for an improved future. I’m known as Megan Taylor and I have played the lottery for ten years, yet I haven’t won anything substantial. In my pursuit of understanding how to win better, I was advised to consult Lord Meduza, the priest who provided me with the precise 6 numbers that helped me secure the Mega Millions jackpot of $277 million after using his spell powers and following his guidance. Lord Meduza services is top notch, and I believe your dreams aren’t finished unless you decide they are. Contact Lord Meduza the priest, and he will assist you in realizing your aspirations.
