Three Journal Prompts ✍️

🧘 Prompt #1: Breath of Fresh Air

Reflect on a moment from your day when you felt fully present. What were you doing, and how did it make you feel? Consider how you can incorporate more of these mindful moments into your routine.

💭 Prompt #2: The Nature of Thoughts

Sit quietly for a few minutes, observing your thoughts without judgment or engagement. Note the kinds of thoughts that pass by. Reflect on this practice – what did you notice about the nature of your thoughts, and how did observing them affect your state of mind?

🌱 Prompt #3: Conscious Consumption

Think about your habits around consumption, whether it's food, media, or even alcohol. How can you approach these aspects of your life more mindfully to foster better health and happiness?

Drink Less Alcohol With No Pressure To Quit

Hello, readers of The Journal Prompt.

A few years ago I wanted to drink a bit less, have fewer hangovers, and develop healthier drinking habits that would last.

But I didn’t want to quit drinking. 

So, I built Sunnyside, an app inspired by habit formation techniques from the likes of James Clear and Nir Eyal.

If you want to drink less with no pressure to quit, give Sunnyside a shot!

You’ll get a 15-day free trial to test everything out, and a 20% discount if you decide to subscribe.

Mindfulness Poem - The Quiet Heart

In the stillness of dawn, where whispers converge,

Mindful living breathes, on the verge.

Each step, each breath, a silent decree,

To embrace the moment, to simply be.

Through the rustle of leaves, in the dance of the light,

Life's essence whispers, in the quiet of night.

A journey inward, where the true treasures lie,

In the spaces between, under the vast sky.

In the gentle pause, in the softest sigh,

Mindful living finds the answers, by and by.

Not in the rush, but in the slow, gentle pace,

In the beauty of presence, in the embrace of grace.

So tread softly, live kindly, with love, let your heart sway,

For in mindful moments, life's colours play.

In the art of being, in the quiet, we find,

The peace within, the tranquillity of mind.

Mindful living encourages us to find beauty and balance in our daily lives, making every action and moment count.

This week, let's embrace mindfulness in all that we do, creating a life filled with intention, gratitude, and well-being.

Here's to a week of living fully, mindfully, and joyfully.

Warm regards,

Isabelle from ‘The Journal Prompt’ Team.
