Chaplain Life • April 2, 2020
Are you tired of constantly living in your head and want to find a place where you can let your thoughts, ideas, and emotions run wild?
Journaling is one of the oldest forms of self-expression in the world. It’s also one of the most overlooked forms of expression. Many today write journaling off and liken it to diaries only for expression during youth, when in fact medical professionals and psychologists have touted the benefits of journaling for years. Journaling has benefits for all ages that engage the practice.
It’s been proven that journaling even semi-regularly can help you to lower your stress levels, feel more self-confident, and be more creative in your daily life. This journal has all the space you need to get your ideas out or even just take a deep dive into self-reflection.
Journaling regularly can help you to clarify the changes that you need to make in your life by tracking and revealing them over time. It can also help you to discover more about who you are. The benefits are individualistic, unique, and may even be transformative.
Who knows where the blank pages in this journal will lead you. This is your journal and it can be whatever you need it to be. Your very own personal confidant. A place of free self-expression. A dream journal. A vision journal. The pages inside this book are yours and for your own personal use, no matter what direction you decide to take them. With inspirational quotes embedded throughout, may you also be inspired.
It’s time for you to get what you’re seeing and feeling out and onto the page. You deserve a safe space just for you. May Spaces and Reflections provide such a place.

Every day you listen to other people's experiences and help guide them spiritually and emotionally through their paths in life, a job that could take an emotional or even physical toll on anyone. What most people don’t realize is that the role of a chaplain requires you to remember so much information about your congregation or those you serve in various settings, about your faith, and also about yourself. These journals were made for chaplains by a chaplain who understands the struggle that you have daily. These simple, lined notebooks are durable and compact so that you can carry them with you no matter where you are going and what you’re doing. Journaling is not only a great way to remember little things that will serve others well, or even for epiphanies of faith that might strike throughout the day, it’s also for you. It’s been proven that journaling is an excellent form of self-care especially for those who may have stressful, high impact jobs that deal with the public. Whether you want to write out your next sermon, list common issues that your flock is facing, or write down how you feel about a certain moment in your life, these journals can help you do just that. By implementing a journal into your daily experiences, you’ll be taking your own emotional and mental health in your hands so that you may live a better and happier life. And best of all by doing that it may only help you be a better chaplain, what you were called to be. These journals are made so that once they’re full they can sit nicely on a nearby shelf, meaning that you will always have a safe place where you can collect, access, and reflect upon past thoughts. Write. Plan. Create. Be inspired. What are you waiting for? Note: *journal is thinner than mockup photo*
