Did you know, simply writing about your child’s behaviour can lower anxiety, reduce stress, and even help you get a better night’s sleep?
The process of writing, just for a few minutes each day, lets your brain organise the complex range of feelings and experiences you’re going through.
Writing down your thoughts helps your mind and body let go, organise, process, and resolve uncomfortable feelings. And, when you identify the things causing you stress or anxiety, you can work on a plan to resolve the problem. It feels positive and lets you be proactive about challenging situations.
All of us worry. We worry about the future, the past and especially about our children. Write in your journal about anything that’s worrying you now — it can be big or small.
You could write about:
You might write about the same thing every day or something different each time. It is entirely up to you. There is no ‘right’ way to do journaling.
When you open the My Family Journal app, click on the reaction icon to tell us how you’re feeling. Then type a few words or sentences to describe a problem you’ve experienced, or to reflect on your day. Â

We’ve created a wide range of suggestions to help you though all sorts of parenting problems. When you use one of our keywords, My Family Journal automatically adds a helpful tip for you to click and read. You’ll often find a link to further support and information.Â
