Is journaling/self-inquiry a good meditation?
Growing up I've experienced my share of trauma that created alot of block energy within myself.Now that I'm 24 it's important that I address these energies so I can show up fully in life. I really enjoy meditation. It has made me a "lighter" being, with the ability to feel the universe and much love all over. Traditional meditation has proven to calibrate my mind and body. Still, however, I've noticed after days of meditation my trauma showed up mentally. It was like my thoughts were weighing me down. I just couldn't let go of all the pain I experience years ago. That was until I started journaling, self- inquiry. I put my thoughts and emotions on paper. I question everything I wrote to find a peaceful state of mind. After doing that I felt thankful for my past and much compassion for those I believed hurt me. My whole life shifted when I question my thoughts and beliefs. Could journaling be a adjunct to meditation?
