Creativity for Wellbeing (Journalling) Entry 3
Add to ShortlistJournaling is a process of making a visual record and what you choose to record is entirely personal. The course will explore 3 different types of journaling:
- Recording (e.g. favourite recipes)
- Remembering (e.g. places visited)
- Rejuvenating (e.g. inspirational quotes for wellbeing)
You will gain tips and ideas to begin journaling, learn about mental wellbeing, with links made to Mindfulness and the evidence-based research behind creativity.

During this course you will learn different skills and techniques to apply to making your own journal.
By the end of the course, you will have explored a range of techniques such as:
