Teacher Tip Tuesday: Inspirational Journaling
My Teacher Tip Tuesday for you today is a type of journaling practice. When my motivation, or passionate energy, is fading, I have found it helpful to reflect on who or what inspires me, and to write this down as a list. Then, I intentionally plan how I will involve these people and activities in my own life. It seems so simple, but in all the busyness, sometimes I forget to play my favorite song or catch up with a close friend, for example. So today, let’s try this practice together:
Who inspires you?
Who can you sit with, conversing for hours, and leave feeling uplifted?
Who do you have “real talks” with - discussions that are vulnerable and sometimes challenging?
Who do you look up to, and why?
What inspires you?
What books, movies, songs, podcasts, or videos bring energy to your heart?
Where do you go to feel inspired?
What hobbies or activities build you up and cultivate creativity?
How does your faith or spiritual practices inspire you?
