creative journal
hello everyone!
i am new here and i hope i am not doing something stupid by making this thread. it is a tip for everyone. because i think it is important for a lot of people to put their feelings and thoughts on paper. i used to write in a journal but it was not sufficiant. why not? well because of a combination of autism and ptsd i sometimes loose language and more often i loose parts of language. and also: i dont always know how to name a feeling. so with a tip of a friend i bought a big photo-album and started to make pages about feelings, or happenings, and later on i learned i can even pray this way. i use every thing i want to use, for instance wooden sticks, feathers, tape (lots of different tapes), pictures, glitter, vilt, you name it! first i was afraid to mess up my journal so i made the most ugliest page i could come up with. and now i dont mind if its ugly. it is not about estatics, it is about expressing myself. and i really really can recommend it!!!!!! also can it be usefull when you want to explain how things work with you to someone else (a friend or therapist or...)
i am sorry if this is not the way i am supposed to use 7cups....
i wish you all the best!!!!!
with love, Koekka!
