I can’t tell you how often people ask me why there aren’t more puzzles in my journal pages.
Just kidding. Nobody ever asks me that.
But I love puzzles. Almost as much as I love journal prompts. When you think about it, they have a lot in common.
Knowing who we are, understanding why we do what we do, identifying meaningful goals and figuring out how to achieve them, making sense of what’s happening out in the world -- let’s be honest, these can be puzzling questions.
A little journaling can go a long way to finding the answers. My goal, always, is to approach journaling as an adventure and create printables that tackle the puzzling questions in our worlds joyfully and, whenever possible, in delightfully surprising ways. One of the best parts of the adventure is pushing the boundaries of what journaling can be.
Which brings me to my newest journal page, Puzzleflectives (with a new and playfully invented word at the helm).
The idea is to use a tiny puzzle to decipher each journal prompt and then use each prompt to learn a little more about yourself and your world. A puzzle within a puzzle.
