    Today I walked to the park and journaled. Love using a diary app with journaling prompts. Inspires me to reflect on topics I would not think of myself. Helps me see how the little steps I’m taking each day really do add up!

    @CCgal2018 Ooh, a diary/journal app? What's it called?

    I really love the look of the journals people have been posting, but I know I wouldn't stick to it because it takes too much effort to go get the thing, whereas I have my phone on me all the time.

    Last night before bed I listened to the grounding guided meditation and felt so calm and relaxed - didn't have any trouble getting comfortable when trying to go to sleep for once! I felt so good about it that I've just begun my day with a guided meditation for positivity and I really loved it. Feel calm, confident and energised. Really glad that many of you mentioned guided meditation as it's something I might never have tried otherwise! It's only day 5 and already I feel like I'm getting so much from this challenge - thank you all so much!

    Which journal app do you use. I can't get to grips with journaling and thought the app you use may help. Well done doing great. Thank you Carol

    @dejavuohlala @Orphia it’s called Grid Diary. I use my bullet journal for book notes and memorable quotes. I’m loving the app for quick daily reflection and on-the-go thoughts!

    Yesterday I took a bath which I've been trying to do for a while but kept putting off. I also decided to start doing the #PFSixWordChallenge as part of my bike journal. I started a health collection so that I can track water and sleep in a more visually pleasing way. I am trying to find a way to track my workouts in a way that feels visually appealing. Today I have a baby shower to go to with my partner. I will be in the car for 2-2.5 hours each way so I am going to look into practicing lettering and how to improve my drawing skills. I also want to get back into writing for myself so I may look at some kind of themed writing prompt. I'm hoping for something similar to the 6 word challenge but longer so that I'm writing each day.

    Hi, I’m interested in joining your challenge! After all, if you don’t take care of yourself, you can’t take care of others 🙂. Happy Saturday!

    BBQ with my b.f. and his family. Then went to an art museum and a book sale; as a special treat just for me.
