According to studies, writing our thoughts in a journal also known as journaling, has shown that writing our thoughts every day reduces anxiety and stress. In addition, it expands our vocabulary and language skills.
We organise our thoughts and create strategies for dealing with our everyday struggles by writing our stressors out on paper or tapping them out on the computer. We place our attention on resolving problems and meeting goals through long-term journaling and diary-keeping. Memories are among the many benefits that a diary can provide over time. Our successes are on display, and we can learn from our mistakes.
But diaries aren't just for reducing anxiety. They provide us with a glimpse into how we change and remind us of events long forgotten. In addition, diaries serve as a guide to future generations. While many people may think of diaries as a place to hold precious information, they also provide an insight into how life has changed from one generation to another. They serve as a reminder of ways long forgotten, words no longer in use, or attitudes that were once acceptable.
