Mari’s Journaling Power Journey

Twenty-six years ago, I lost feeling and function in the right side of my body due to an MS (Multiple Sclerosis) symptom flare-up. The cocktail of BigPharma prescription drugs and specialist visits weren’t helping my health challenges. At All.

One day, a friend introduced me to “Morning Pages,” a journaling exercise from Julia Cameron’s book, The Artist’s Way. Morning Pages is a stream-of-conscious writing activity done first thing in the morning. The idea is to wake up and commit to your journal daily, writing three longhand pages of any thoughts and feelings that come into your head.

MORE THAN PHYSICAL THERAPY

At first, I viewed the exercise as solely physical therapy to teach myself how to write with my left hand. But I soon noticed how journaling eased my mental, emotional, and spiritual pains too!  I realized that Journaling was the personal growth tool that I needed to heal my diseases and create the life I wanted to live: A happy, healthy life that now includes being a professional singer and leading the CreateWriteNow Journaling Power Community..

Today, I’m the multi-award-winning author of Journaling Power: How To Create The Happy, Healthy Life You Want To Live; Heal Your Self With Journaling Power; and Mindset Medicine: A Journaling Power Self-Love Book. I'm currently at work on the 4th Journaling Power Revolution Series Book: Heal The Issues In Your Tissues: A Journaling Power Self-Therapy Guide.

I’ve also created 20+ Journaling Power Workbooks including, Who Am I?, Journal Magic For Writers, Love Your Body and Change Your Life in 15 Days.

I hold individual Journaling Power Sessions with clients who want to learn how to use Journaling For The Health Of It® to heal, grow and transform their life!
