E16. How to improve your English (and life) with journalling

The English for Change Podcast

“We don't know where we're going, we don't know what's going to happen, but no one can take away from you what you put in your own mind.”
As we face uncertain times, this quote from Holocaust survivor Edith Eger demonstrates the power we have in how we respond to life's challenges.
Writing in a journal is one tool I have found helpful to process my thoughts and feelings and deal with stress and uncertainty.
In this episode, I discuss my experience with journalling and keeping a diary throughout my life. I talk about the 3 huge benefits of journalling that I have experienced:

• Journalling for personal development
