My Final Thoughts
I truly enjoyed reading “Heal Your Self with Journaling Power.” I began giving each prompt a try at the end of each chapter. The art of journaling actually helped me through the anxiety I am feeling about childbirth and motherhood. Just writing down my fears and worries and re-reading it allowed me to strategize and find solutions of what I can do about those fears right now. I can attest that the methods discussed were extremely helpful. I highly recommend this book to teenagers all the way to senior citizens, because these age groups can truly benefit from the knowledge shared in this book. I stand behind holistic methods for healing and this book gives readers just that; a prescription that only has positive side effects. I urge you to learn about the art of journaling from Mari McCarthy, find a method that works for you, and get started.
