Journal To Self - Ana Juma

AVAILABLE IN SPRING 2025

Journal to the Self

A 6-week course on how to journal for self-growth

What is the Journal to the Self?

The Journal to the Self® Workshop is a proven method of keeping a journal for personal growth and enhancing different areas of your life.

It was created in 1985 by my mentor Kathleen (Kay) Adams, Director of the Center for Journal Therapy, and a well-known pioneer and expert in writing therapy.

More than 100,000 people around the globe have learned this easy, effective, empowering model of journal-keeping through the Journal to the Self method and now, as a Journal to the Self Certified instructor, I get to share it with you!

The journal is like the moon, emitting a magnetic tug that draws information from your subconscious and unconscious minds and brings it to the surface, where you can work at a conscious level.

KAY ADAMS

Why Journaling?

Uncovering thoughts, emotions, and behaviors that were once unconscious
Self-understanding by articulating your thoughts and feelings in a structured way
Promoting emotional well-being by creating a safe space to express and process emotions
Making healthier choices by becoming aware of recurring themes and patterns
Personal empowerment as you own the narrative of your life instead of being defined by societal expectations

Who is the Journal to the Self for?

Journaling Beginners

If you’re new to journaling and unsure where to start, the Journal to the Self provides bite-sized techniques and a step-by-step journey — guiding you through the process without overwhelm. You’ll build confidence, develop a sustainable habit, and discover the joy of self-expression through writing.

Do you journal only when you feel stuck, frustrated, or inspired? This course will help you move beyond sporadic journaling, transforming it from a reactive coping tool into a proactive, nourishing self-care practice that supports you daily.

Experienced Journalers

If you already have a journaling practice but feel like you’re repeating the same methods, the Journal to the Self will revitalize your writing with fresh, creative techniques. You’ll learn how to access deeper insights, uncover hidden aspects of yourself, and reignite your passion for journaling.
