It&#39;s also the best time to sort out todos as you spend time reflecting. <\/p>\n<p>Usually, I do recaps on Sundays and last Sunday&#39;s of a month(or first Sunday depending how close to month end it is)<\/p>\n<p>Hope it helps&#8230; Courage<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Alli J.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I feel like my mind is most fresh in the morning, but I end up journaling whenever I can. It feels good to write, decompress, and vent on paper when a situation permits, so that\u2019s my second favorite time. Morning writing helps to organize my day and plan out my thoughts.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Sandra R.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">If I&#39;ve had an emotional experience (joy, sad, angry, stressed,etc.), I try to write soon after. Usually as an email to myself.<br \/>\nI keep a lighted pen next to my bed to write in my dream journal in middle of the night or before getting up in the morning. I return to the dream in the evening for interpretation.<br \/>\nMy gratitude journal gets 3 things I intend to be grateful for written before breakfast and 3 gratitudes with each meal and at bed.<br \/>\nOnce a week I take some time after meditation to journal my thoughts.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">\u042e\u043b\u0438\u0430\u043d \u0420\u0430\u0447\u0435\u0432 N.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">In the morning, after i wake up, i complete my morning routine(which takes like 10 mins) and than i write in the journal<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Moua Z.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I usually find it best to write right before bed. After the day is done. It allows me to reflect on the day. To appreciate and be grateful of the good. And to review the bad, then let it go right before sleep. So that in the morning, it is all a fresh start.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Hansiana C.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">When I&#39;m feeling down or something. I find it best to write in my journal when I want to express my emotions and progress and express what&#39;s going on in my life and how I feel about that.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Emily N.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Usually at night I shower, do yoga, etc. Basically i\u2019ll do everything that i have to do, so once i start journaling i don\u2019t have to leave my room again. I journal, then mediate and sleep and it clears my mind, making it easier to drift into a sleep.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Arleen P.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I used to write in it in the mornings before I went for my walk. Niwbwithvthe winter and snow I don&#39;t go out as often and def not in the mornings for my walk. So now I don&#39;t at night before bed. Helps me think of my day as I fall asleep. But this month is getting hard for me to commit to any habits full heartedlyand I&#39;m trying to understand why.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Katrina P.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I think it&#39;s best to write when I have something to reflect about. If I have a lot of thoughts, it&#39;s helpful to write them down and organize them, rather than trying to dig through them all at once in my head. Once they are organized, it&#39;s easier to process and think logically.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Khadijah F.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Whenever you feel something or think of something.Then just jot down a few things and it will goes on..it will make you be more clear about what is going out and be more rational.It is likely you can visualize the big picture and not stress out about what is going on.Just make sure your journal is always available with next to your drink bottle.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Mickelle O.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I was just writing in my journal in the evening and at night time but by then I was so exhausted from my day that I was only riding a half a page and I was trying to hurry up and write that but if I write periodically through the day I noticed that I actually enjoy that and I write with more detail and I end up writing at least two pages by that evening for that day which is awesome because when I go back and I read my pages I sit and I find myself just smiling at my days and smiling that when I remember that day and how I felt and the things that I smelled and heard and seen and touched I write down my senses and it&#39;s just awesome and I also helped sharpen your memory because as you get older the years just crammed together this will help keep your years in your days separate and you remember everyday for the rest of your life as long as you journal<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Cass N.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">For me, it is typically in the morning. This way I have it out of the way for the rest of the day and I don\u2019t need to worry about forgetting it! I added it to my morning routine, as to make sure that it\u2019s on my list and that I\u2019ll do it. This app really motivates me to complete my routines and habits. I find that adding it to my routine helps with consistency. I hope that helps!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Joshua W.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Write about your life or what are you going through in life to became something you want in life . Write down the plan you wanna see yourself in 5 years<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Dren M.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Personally, the best time to write in my journal is during those times when i feel confused, when i feel I&#39;m floating through life without any objective. In a way, it helps me be more perceptive, and achive my goals in a more clear way.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Sadio N.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">The best time is when your brain is on fire because of everything that\u2019s in your head. When we are overthinking, we usually don\u2019t have the reflex to write down our thoughts. You don\u2019t have to wait for your brain to burn with thoughts but It has been proven that writing down what keeps us awake helps us sleep better. So it makes sense to write before going to sleep. Try it every night or every time you can. You\u2019ll see the results.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Elana I.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">I\u2019ve taken to reaching for my Fabulous \u201cjournal\u201d when a thought&#x2F;feeling pops up that I absolutely MUST pen\u2026unexpected quiet&#x2F;reflective moments throughout the day, which I then ponder on&#x2F;evaluate&#x2F;better articulate at the end of the day when all is finally calm.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"single-answer\">\n<div class=\"who-answered\">Royal C.<\/div>\n<div class=\"detailed-answer\">Take cup of ur fav tea&#8230; Turn on aesthetic morning&#x2F;evening routine video and take ur journal&#8230; Sit comfortable.
