Taking time to reflect on your life experiences is key to personal growth and deep learning. This is especially true when those experiences are the most challenging or when they leave you feeling like things are falling apart all around you. Journaling is a powerful tool of self-exploration and reflection, and this book offers poetry and guiding prompts for deep, introspective writing. Get ready for a journey that explores what it means to "break" with the intention of "breaking open". When we break open, we find purpose in the madness and chaos that sometimes manifests in our lives. Navigating those waters takes courage, self-compassion, and faith such that when you emerge on the other side, something beautiful is created. Be inspired, be moved, be curious. Look into your heart for your most authentic self-expression and allow your words to break open on the journal pages within this book.
