What is the J31D challenge?

J31D stands for Journal 31 days challenge.

I’ve always loved journalling, but lack the consistency (or drive) to continue to do it on a daily basis. If you feel like you’re in the same boat, this challenge is for you.

Maybe you have always wanted to start journalling, but never took the first step to do so. If that’s the case, this challenge is also for you.

Or maybe you are a journal pro, you are also still welcome to join us! Wherever you are in your journalling journey, I’d love for you to join me in this challenge.

Just some benefits of journalling that I’ve learned about over the years:

• It can improve immune function

• Keeps your thoughts organize and your memory sharp

• As journaling habits develops, you increase your overall emotional health

• Reduces stress and anxiety

How does the challenge work?

It’s really simple: we are going to journal together for 31 days.

When do we do it? For me, I’ve been journalling at night but I think I want to start journalling in the morning! For you, it’s totally up to you when you feel like it would be a good time for you to do it! I say pick a time where you will make that effort to actually write.

When does it start? August 1, 2024.

How long will these journal posts be? That will be completely up to you. It can be really short, it can be paragraphs long. It can be dependant on the day. This is going to be personal to you!

What do I write about? So as part of the challenge, I’ll be providing you with daily prompts to guide your journaling. I’ll be sending out a weekly email with the prompts for the week and I’ll also be posting it on instagram (@thesprinkleoflight) daily. This way you’ll have something to help you think and focus on something to journal about that particular day. Some of these prompts will be easy and some will be more deep & reflective!

If you are interested in joining the challenge, please sign up below to 1) get my weekly challenge emails where I’ll be providing the list of prompts for the week and 2) so I know who is participating and I can keep you accountable/be your hype girl!
