The Journal

With technology taking over, there’s something special about writing in this superb journal. The quality of this journal entices you to write in in regularly. Combine this with the activities and this new habit makes your mind much clearer to do things that matter!

I’m not a writer but this has really helped me think about myself as a hole and how I’m feeling I’ve had mental health issues for a long time and doing this has made a difference if your in a mind to try it I strongly say do it be open minded

I have been really struggling over the last few months with my anxiety getting me down with the lockdown blues, and I am always telling other sufferers of mental health problems to write down how they feel. So I saw the advert on Instagram and it struck a cord with me.
I researched the journal and found it ticket all the boxes.
It has a box to put it in, to keeping it looking nice all the time.
It’s structured and easy to do daily.
The pages are good quality, making you feel that what you are doing is important (because it is).
It’s Vegan.

Before I bought this journal, I tried the sample pages (really clever idea) and then I was ready to jump right in.
It arrived and I decided I would dedicate time in the evening to do it daily and its become my mind time. I now look forward to writing in it and after only two weeks, have found out so many things about myself. It sounds silly, but lots of the questions asked in the journal, I had never pondered before and so the level of insight has been fantastic. I’m no expert at journaling, but this is the best start I could have ever hoped for.

Thank you MindJournal this is one happy customer!

The structure of the first few journal entries is helpful for easing you into this process. I've enjoyed taking the time to sit down and write the first entries. Looking forward to working through the rest!

I had seen it in adverts on Instagram. I read the story of its creation. I had seen it in adverts on Facebook. I went to the website and read all about it. I got triggered and decided to order it and I was very excited to receive my journal with its nice soft leather cover. I picked up a pen and started but soon realised that this wasn't something I would be taking around the place. By the time I got to the Pie of Life I just wanted to chuck the journal across the room and stamp on it. I return to my blank pages journal and since I have written some 6,000 words getting stuff off my chest so to speak. I am sorry but this journal thing didn't work for me.

So I bought the MindJournal as it sounded good. It’s a good design and feels good in the hand. I like the idea of the questions etc. It’s a good place to start. Journaling is all about putting down your thoughts etc. I tend to write a lot down and feel frustrated when I run out of pages before the next questions pop up. Now I could use another book to continue but then why get this journal. I feel a little let down by lack of pages to write on. The method is good and I think I’ll continue some of the principles but just use another book instead. I do think though that this would work well on an app as long as you give enough space to write ALL that you want to write. It’s good but not good enough.

I'm about half way through, and I've been surprised at the effect it's had on me. Being furloughed from work due to the coronavirus I was starting to feel lost, but the MindJournal's exercises have helped me to focus. I've now started a separate journal alongside, as the exercises prompted other questions and I felt needed more space to explore them. The space for each exercise entry is generally fine though, and if there were more pages I think it could look too intimidating.

It has been hard at times, and I've uncovered some uncomfortable truths about myself along the way. Some times I have come away from an exercise feeling much worse than I had, and I've considered giving it up. But I'm aware that making any real change requires effort, so I'm intending to stick with it.

Following a breakup I realised I'd lost myself. MindJournal helped me along the path to finding myself again. While some of the exercises were difficult to answer while I was in a gloomy state, they still informed me of what I needed to work on. I already feel ready to journal without guidance and not I'm not even finished yet!

I've had depression and anxiety for a very long time one, and I saw an advertisement on Facebook for this journal and thought I'd give it a go. I'm not a good writer, have terrible handwriting and I have found it difficult to write regularly or even to think of things to write, I'm sure this will improve over time. The quality of the journal is great, it feels very well made I was a little disappointed that after I'd bought it I got a discount code offer to buy the same journal again but that's just me. Overall I'm happy with it and hopefully I can get better at writing in it as time goes on

It has not helped me, wish I’d never bought it.
