My social media feeds are filled with friends doing their best to heal, some from Covid, some from other conditions. Painful, life threatening, annoying, aggravating, horrible–the issues run the gamut.
When researchers study the value of having a safe place to express feelings about your condition (or even a loved one’s condition) the value is clear. Here’s what’s also true:
-Not everyone is ready to hear what a sick person has to say. We must pick and choose carefully those with whom we share our feelings.
-Not every sick person wants to share their deepest thoughts with others about what’s going on in their head, heart or body.
-Yet there is plenty to say and it’s so helpful for healing to have an oultet.
Each page of our Guided Journal for Healing has a prompt or a simple activity meant to gently support healing.
The prompts give you a focus for expressing your feelings and the activities provide something helpful to do, however simple. Both are so key to coping and recovering.
An activity in the Healing Journal could be as simple as visualizing, which is more effective than you might think. Because it’s such a simple thing:
The journal is spiral bound and sized so it’s portable and easy to work with. Some of those who use it take it to treatments and use it along with their medical efforts. One called our large healing gift (that includes the guided journal) her “cancer survival kit.”
Plus, it’s pretty to look at.
Alone, it makes a thoughtful gift for only $15.95, but combined with other supportive items in one of our healing gift packages, it really is special, unique and helpful. Shipping now.

Wonderful idea to keep oneself focused!
That is exactly it, Jody!
These healing journals are such a good idea. Sometimes it is easier to write down how you are feeling or write down guidance for others who don’t know quite how to approach topics than to speak face to face.
Your Healing Journals are wonderful and I have given them as gifts to others.
They really are a good support to those who are battling a condition.
Writing is so helpful to properly process feelings to be sure they get released.
tes. Especially if we are not comfortable talking about that.
With the amount of pain, grieving, and other emotion running through all of us right now, someone doesn’t need to have a physical illness to benefit from a gift like this. Healing has to start somewhere – why not from something compact that can come in the mail?
Yes and it’s a private place to share feelings.
I love that this has prompts. Some days I look at my empty journal pages and don’t know where to start.
I know. These prompts are written with the objective of the journal in mind so that. makes it supportive and helpful to those who are healing.
I am grateful that you spend your time, energy and talent on healing. We have too many people in our world focusing on achieving in a way that leaves a wake of destruction in their path — or leads to neglect of others’ “less important” needs. Thank you, thank you for being a healer!
Oh, Karen, what a nice thing to say! Thank you.
This looks lovely, Carol.
I get so much positive feedback from those who receive it.
Such a great idea to help you focus. A good gift idea!
Yes, it really is.
