When was the last time you took your pen and paper out and journaled your thoughts?✍🏻📔
NEXKY has tried “Morning Pages” for over a month now and can honestly tell you all how amazing it is! Never heard of Morning Pages? Let NEXKY explain it to you! 🥰
What Are Morning Pages? 🤔
As the name suggests, “Morning Pages” is journaling your thoughts💭 and expressions first thing in the morning. It allows you to put all your conscious thoughts, worries, emotions onto the paper in order to have a clear mind/slate to start the day 🤩.
Thoughts from previous nights can linger in your consciousness, so writing them out can free up the space in your brain🧠! These days, news and information from the internet can overwhelm our mental health and create stress, so doing morning pages can help free up information that weighs your productivity down!
How To Start Morning Pages 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♀️
Treat it as your morning routine and dedicate a little time to self-care, you deserve it! We tend to pick up our phones first thing in the morning and be bombarded with news and social media📲. Instead, pick up a pen and paper and start writing!
To avoid distractions, put your phone on Do Not Disturb📵 and turn on some soothing tunes like jazz music (Read Previous Story For More Info). Be comfortable when writing, pick a smooth pen and paper as you will eventually be writing pages after pages, trust NEXKY! 😚
Important Things To Keep Note!
Be authentic with what you write and never censor your thoughts!
The purpose of this is to be aware of your consciousness and leave all the dark thoughts behind. Worried someone will read your morning pages? Hide or destroy them!
🔥Don’t worry about losing them because they have already served the purpose of clearing your mind!
Give it a try and tell NEXKY how you feel! There is no right or wrong way to write your morning pages! Do not worry about mistakes, grammar, spelling, or your handwriting. The idea is to write all your thoughts out, even if they are inconsistent, stay committed, and keep writing! 🤍💗
