There is a common theme of having a regular structure to work to to achieve the Benefits of journaling. That structure may be:
- Daily prompt questions such as Henderson’s journaling prompts
- List of questions for a particular purpose/time of year/focus
- 30 Journaling Prompts for Self-Reflection and Self-Discovery
- 10 Questions to Capture the Year in Your Journal
- Mander (2020), Keeping a Journal contains a long list of prompts for multiple situations.
- Something more detailed such as Proprioceptive writing and the “What do I mean by…?” question structure.
