Journaling Room – Life in a
Book
jour·nal: n. A personal record of occurrences, experiences, and reflections kept on a regular basis.
During the summer, we seem to
find more time to pack in the usual summer festivities, like camping
out, hitting the Pow Wow trail, sports
activities, and then some. So why not
try journaling? It can be a great way
to keep track of memories and is also
a great way for you busy moms to get
your thoughts organized.
What is it about writing down our
day-to-day events or thoughts and
feelings? Well, when we can do this it
allows us to take a jumbled, crumpled
up thought and somehow straighten it out so that it makes sense. In
some ways it assists to transform our
lives by providing an outlet to release
stress-causing emotions like anger,
sadness, or even fear. In a recent
article on the benefits of meditation
published via livescience.com, it’s
noted that psychologists believe that
we have more control over our emotions when we talk about them.
With today’s technological advances,
we’ve been exposed to more accessible forms of journaling . . . enter: the
blog. A weblog (or blog for short) is a
regular account of journaling on the
Internet where the writer may include
news, personal thoughts, quotes,
a sort of diary, commentary, video
entries, or photos, etc. MySpace,
Facebook, or Blogger.com anyone?
For many women, exercise is high on the list of “things to

friend, lover, student, or just your average all-around superwoman.
Well, what better way to get started than by walking! It’s an easyto-do physical activity that requires little more than a portion of
your time and a good pair of comfortable walking shoes.
Walking is an easy way to both ease into an exercise routine
or to supplement your regular exercise regimen when necessary.
30 minutes of walking a day can go a long way to improving
your health. Try implementing it with your regular activities like
taking a walk
