Try to use your journal in a way that fits into your routine so that you keep with it. “My advice would be to use the journal every day when you first wake up and right before you go to sleep,” says Massi. “Upon waking up, you may use the journal to prepare for the day, easing your anxiety before you have a chance to get anxious. Before going to sleep, use the journal to unburden your mind, knowing that you can rest easy with all of your thoughts and to-do items down on paper where you won't forget them.”
