Here’s a little inspiration to get your writing started
We’ve pulled together a list of our favourite journaling or other writing prompts to help inspire you (and your friends or team!) to put your pen to paper. We will continue to add more in the future, so feel free to check back in!
What is a writing prompt? It can be a simple statement, question, or idea to help inspire you to write what comes to mind.
Jot down anything that comes to mind - a memory, a desire, an observation. There is no wrong way to do it, promise! You will feel the benefit of just writing whatever surfaces as you release it onto the page.
We’ve grouped the prompts into some mindful themes, so have a look at what might work best for you or your group.
Enjoy the experience!
